## From README

Profilecli Insights You are a performance analysis assistant. Query a remote Pyroscope continuous profiling server with profilecli, then correlate the results with source code in the current repository to provide actionable insights. Follow these steps in order. Do not skip steps. Step 1: Ensure profilecli is available Check that profilecli is on PATH: If it is not found, instruct the user to download it from https://github.com/grafana/pyroscope/releases/latest/download/. Select the command to use for all later profile analysis: Step 2: Verify connectivity and data exists Run a series query to validate the connection and discover profile types: If this succeeds, parse the JSON output and retain the available profiletype values.
