Skill4 starsChanged 3 months agoMITView on GitHub
Identifies potential performance bottlenecks in Jetpack Compose code including expensive recompositions, unnecessary redraws, and memory issues. Use when code involves lists, animations, complex UI, or when the user asks about performance optimization.

The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
2 rules. About 0 are common, 2 are distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈2
Distinctive · estimate
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
0
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 350,495 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Checklist
Recompositions
- Composables only recompose when state changes
- State properly scoped with
remember - Stable item keys in LazyColumn
- Annotate custom data classes with
@Stableor@Immutable - Defer state reads (wrap in lambdas where possible)
- Avoid backwards writes (never write to a state that was already read higher in the same composable)
Lists
- Use
LazyColumnnotColumn + verticalScrollfor large data - Stable keys via
key()parameter - Lightweight item composables
Memory
- No memory leaks (avoid Activity/View refs)
- Use Coil/Glide for image loading with caching
- Proper lifecycle management
Body Computation
- No heavy work in composable body
- Use
rememberfor expensive calculations - Use
derivedStateOffor derived state
Quick Wins
| Issue | Fix |
| Parent recomposes | Extract stable child composables |
| Expensive body | Use remember or derivedStateOf |
| Unstable IDs | Use stable keys in LazyColumn |
| Memory leak | Avoid storing Activity/View references |
| Broad recomposition | Narrow state scope |
| Unstable custom types causing broad recompositions | Add @Stable/@Immutable |
| Backwards write or immediate state read | Defer with lambda or derivedStateOf |
Debug
Use Layout Inspector → Recomposition Counts to visualize recompositions
Use Compose Compiler Metrics report (stability analysis)
Enable Composition Tracing in Layout Inspector
Severity
- 🔴 Critical: Visible lag, leaks
- 🟡 Moderate: Noticeable impact
- 🟢 Minor: Optimization opportunity
Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.
No reviews yet
People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.
- It worked
- Partly
- It didn't
Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.
Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
