# Load-test gRPC services from proto files and reusable request fixtures

This ASE skill uses ghz to run repeatable gRPC load tests from proto files, protosets, or server reflection. An agent can replay request fixtures at controlled concurrency, capture latency and error rates, and export machine-readable reports for regression checks or performance investigations.

## Prerequisites

A gRPC service plus proto files, a protoset bundle, or server reflection, and representative request data

## Installation

Choose whichever fits your setup:

1. Copy this skill folder into your local skills directory.
2. Clone the repo and symlink or copy the skill into your agent workspace.
3. Add the repo as a git submodule if you manage shared skills centrally.
4. Install it through your internal provisioning or packaging workflow.
5. Download the folder directly from GitHub and place it in your skills collection.

Install command or upstream instructions:

```
brew install ghz
```
