Execution skill. Use when a Pigment application has slow calculations, timeouts, or when diagnosing performance bottlenecks. Covers profiler interpretation, scope chip reading, systematic troubleshooting workflow, and iterative calculation optimization.

## Install

```sh
git clone https://github.com/gopigment/ai-plugins /tmp/ai-plugins && ln -s /tmp/ai-plugins/skills/diagnosing-performance-issues ~/.claude/skills/diagnosing-performance-issues
```

## From README

Diagnose Pigment Performance Issues Use when calculations are slow, timing out, or the user asks to find bottlenecks. Open the Profiler on the Slow Metric Ask the user to reproduce the slow action (input change, import, scenario switch) so a fresh update exists in History. Updates are profiled for three days only. Open the Profiler via: Application History: Sidebar \> History \> hover the update \> Profile update Block updates: Expand the Block on a Board \> Block updates icon \> three-dot menu \> profile Block Explorer: Open the Metric \> profiling from the formula bar menu User must have Builder account type or above. In the Profiling pane, note total computation time and number of Blocks revised. Sort by Computation Duration (descending). Use Search to locate a specific Metric. Optionally filter Filter on path to this object to isolate upstream dependencies. Read Scope Chips and M/N Notation Each computation step shows a Scope value and colored chip.
