aposd-optimizing-critical-paths

The skill's footprint is coherent with its stated purpose: it provides a structured, measurement-first approach to performance optimization and explicitly guards against intuition-driven changes. There are no evident data flows, credential handling, or external dependencies that would raise security concerns. Overall risk is low to moderate, driven by the potential for misapplication if profiling data is mishandled or if measurement is biased, but not by the skill's own design.
