Analyzes an existing N|Solid diagnostic asset by asset ID or local asset path using asset-summary. Use when the user asks to inspect, review, summarize, or interpret an already-captured CPU profile, heap profile, heap sample, or heap snapshot, including assets just produced by ns-generate-asset. Do not use to capture new profiles/snapshots.

## Install

```sh
git clone https://github.com/nodesource/nsolid-skills-plugin /tmp/nsolid-skills-plugin && ln -s /tmp/nsolid-skills-plugin/skills/ns-analyze-asset ~/.claude/skills/ns-analyze-asset
```

## From README

Instructions Identify the Asset The user should provide an asset ID or an app name with asset type. Preserve the app name from the user, assets, or information-dashboard; asset-summary does not include it. If the user only gives an app name and asset type, call assets with filters and ask the user which asset to inspect. Get the Best Available Summary CPU profiles and heap sampling assets Prefer asset-summary first when you have an asset ID. These asset types return immediately. Heap snapshots (async summarization) Heap snapshot summarization is asynchronous and may not be ready on the first call. Use this retry loop: Call asset-summary with the asset ID. If the response body contains "pending", "processing", "summarization started", "async", or a reference to "assets-in-progress", the snapshot is still being summarized — do NOT analyze it yet. Call assets-in-progress to check the queue position.
