Runtime Performance Auditor (L3 Worker)

Type: L3 Worker

Specialized worker auditing runtime performance anti-patterns in async and general code.

Purpose & Scope

• Audit runtime performance (Priority: MEDIUM)
• Check async anti-patterns, unnecessary allocations, blocking operations
• Write structured findings to file with severity, location, effort, recommendations
• Calculate compliance score (X/10) for Runtime Performance category

Inputs

MANDATORY READ: Load shared/references/audit_worker_core_contract.md. MANDATORY READ: Load shared/references/mcp_tool_preferences.md and shared/references/mcp_integration_patterns.md

Receives contextStore with: tech_stack, best_practices, codebase_root, output_dir.

Domain-aware: Supports domain_mode + current_domain.

Use hex-graph first when hotspot detection materially improves runtime findings. Use hex-line first for local code reads when available. If MCP is unavailable, unsupported, or not indexed, continue with built-in Read/Grep/Glob/Bash and state the fallback in the report.

Workflow

MANDATORY READ: Load shared/references/two_layer_detection.md for detection methodology.

1. Parse context from contextStore

- Extract tech_stack, best_practices, output_dir - Determine scan_path - Detect async framework: asyncio (Python), Node.js async, Tokio (Rust)

1. Scan codebase for violations

- Grep patterns scoped to scan_path - For Rules 1, 3, 5: detect async def blocks first, then check for violations inside them

1. Collect findings with severity, location, effort, recommendation
2. Calculate score using penalty algorithm
3. Write Report: Build full markdown report in memory per shared/templates/audit_worker_report_template.md, write to {output_dir}/ln-653--global.md in single Write call
4. Return Summary: Return minimal summary to coordinator (see Output Format)

Audit Rules (Priority: MEDIUM)

1. Blocking IO in Async

What: Synchronous file/network operations inside async functions, blocking event loop

Detection (Python):

• Find async def functions
• Inside them, grep for blocking calls:

- File: open(, .read_bytes(), .read_text(), .write_bytes(), .write_text(), Path(...).(read|write) - Network: requests.get, requests.post, urllib.request - Subprocess: subprocess.run(, subprocess.call(

• Exclude: calls wrapped in await asyncio.to_thread(...) or await loop.run_in_executor(...)

Detection (Node.js):

• Inside async function or arrow async, grep for fs.readFileSync, fs.writeFileSync, child_process.execSync

Severity:

• HIGH: Blocking IO in API request handler (blocks entire event loop)
• MEDIUM: Blocking IO in background task/worker
• Downgrade when: Blocking IO in __init__/setup/bootstrap (not request path) -> LOW. Small file (<1KB) read in non-hot path -> skip

Recommendation: Use aiofiles, asyncio.to_thread(), or loop.run_in_executor() for file operations; use httpx.AsyncClient instead of requests

Effort: S (wrap in to_thread or switch to async library)

2. Unnecessary List Allocation

What: List comprehension where generator expression suffices

Detection:

• len([x for x in...]) - allocates list just to count; use sum(1 for...)
• any([x for x in...]) - allocates list for short-circuit check; use any(x for...)
• all([x for x in...]) - same pattern; use all(x for...)
• set([x for x in...]) - use set comprehension {x for x in...}
• "".join([x for x in...]) - use generator directly "".join(x for x in...)

Severity:

• MEDIUM: Unnecessary allocation in hot path (API handler, loop)
• LOW: Unnecessary allocation in infrequent code

Recommendation: Replace [...] with generator (...) or set comprehension {...}

Effort: S (syntax change only)

3. Sync Sleep in Async

What: time.sleep() inside async function blocks event loop

Detection:

• Grep for time\.sleep inside async def blocks
• Pattern: await some_async_call()... time.sleep(N)... await another_call()

Severity:

• HIGH: time.sleep() in async API handler (freezes all concurrent requests)
• MEDIUM: time.sleep() in async background task
• Downgrade when: time.sleep in CLI/script (not async server) -> skip

Recommendation: Replace with await asyncio.sleep(N)

Effort: S (one-line change)

4. String Concatenation in Loop

What: Building string via += inside loop (O(n^2) for large strings)

Detection:

• Pattern: variable result, output, html, text with += inside for/while loop
• Grep for: variable followed by += containing string operand inside loop body

Severity:

• MEDIUM: String concat in loop processing large data (>100 iterations)
• LOW: String concat in loop with small iterations (<100)

Recommendation: Use list.append() + "".join(), or io.StringIO, or f-string with "".join(generator)

Effort: S (refactor to list + join)

5. Missing to_thread for CPU-Bound

What: CPU-intensive synchronous code in async handler without offloading to thread

Detection:

• Inside async def, find CPU-intensive operations:

- JSON parsing large files: json.loads(large_data), json.load(file) - Image processing: PIL.Image.open, cv2.imread - Crypto: hashlib, bcrypt.hashpw - XML/HTML parsing: lxml.etree.parse, BeautifulSoup( - Large data transformation without await points

• Exclude: operations already wrapped in asyncio.to_thread() or executor

Severity:

• MEDIUM: CPU-bound operation in async handler (blocks event loop proportionally to data size)

Recommendation: Wrap in await asyncio.to_thread(func, *args) (Python 3.9+) or loop.run_in_executor(None, func, *args)

Effort: S (wrap in to_thread)

6. Redundant Data Copies

What: Unnecessary .copy(), list(), dict() when data is only read, not mutated

Detection:

• data = list(items) where data is only iterated (never modified)
• config = config_dict.copy() where config is only read
• result = dict(original) where result is returned without modification

Severity:

• LOW: Redundant copy in most contexts (minor memory overhead)
• MEDIUM: Redundant copy of large data in hot path

Recommendation: Remove unnecessary copy; pass original if not mutated

Effort: S (remove copy call)

Scoring Algorithm

MANDATORY READ: Load shared/references/audit_worker_core_contract.md and shared/references/audit_scoring.md.

Output Format

MANDATORY READ: Load shared/references/audit_worker_core_contract.md and shared/templates/audit_worker_report_template.md.

Write JSON summary per shared/references/audit_summary_contract.md. In managed mode the caller passes both runId and summaryArtifactPath; in standalone mode the worker generates its own run-scoped artifact path per shared contract.

Write report to {output_dir}/ln-653--global.md with category: "Runtime Performance" and checks: blocking_io_in_async, unnecessary_list_allocation, sync_sleep_in_async, string_concat_in_loop, missing_to_thread, redundant_data_copies.

Return summary per shared/references/audit_summary_contract.md.

When summaryArtifactPath is absent, write the standalone runtime summary under .hex-skills/runtime-artifacts/runs/{run_id}/evaluation-worker/{worker}--{identifier}.json and optionally echo the same summary in structured output.

Report written: .hex-skills/runtime-artifacts/runs/{run_id}/audit-report/ln-653--global.md
Score: X.X/10 | Issues: N (C:N H:N M:N L:N)

Critical Rules

MANDATORY READ: Load shared/references/audit_worker_core_contract.md.

• Do not auto-fix: Report only
• Async context required: Rules 1, 3, 5 apply ONLY inside async functions
• Exclude wrappers: Do not flag calls already wrapped in to_thread/run_in_executor
• Context-aware: Small files (<1KB) read synchronously may be acceptable
• Exclude tests: Do not flag test utilities or test fixtures
