Benchmark Rego query

rego_bench
Read-onlyIdempotent

Benchmark Rego queries against policies to identify slow rules. Returns iteration count, time per operation, and memory allocations.

Instructions

Benchmark a Rego query against a policy + input with opa bench. Returns statistical timing data: iterations, ns/op, and allocation counts. Use this to spot slow rules.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
queryYesRego query to benchmark.
pathsNoPolicy / data paths to load. Each must be in an allowed root.
inputNoInline input document.
inputPathNoPath to a JSON input file.
countNoNumber of benchmark iterations. Defaults to OPA's built-in default.
Behavior5/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Description adds detail on return data (iterations, ns/op, allocation counts) beyond annotations. No contradictions.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Two sentences, straight to the point, no fluff.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Explains return data, but could mention prerequisites (e.g., policy files must exist). Still adequate for a benchmark tool.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 100%, so baseline 3. Description does not add extra meaning to parameters beyond schema.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

Clearly states it benchmarks a Rego query with opa bench and returns timing stats. Differentiates from evaluation/testing siblings.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines4/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Explicitly says 'Use this to spot slow rules', providing clear context. Could be improved by stating alternatives but still strong.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
