Core Web Vitals

LCP, INP and CLS: what moves each one, and what only looks like it does.

Installation

$ npx skills add addyosmani/web-quality-skills

The CLI's unit is the repository, so this installs everything in addyosmani/web-quality-skills, not core-web-vitals alone. It writes into whichever agent directories it finds — Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Copilot, Windsurf, Zed.

Summary

LCP, INP and CLS: what moves each one, and what only looks like it does.

  • Reach for it when a failing field-data report, where lab numbers are already green and unhelpful.
  • Sits in Operate & maintain — production reality: debugging, performance, instrumentation, and writing down why the system is the way it is.
  • Assumes web.
  • Published by Addy Osmani. Well regarded, but not the vendor of the thing it covers.
  • Installing pulls the whole addyosmani/web-quality-skills repository: this catalogue lists 1 other entry from it, and the repo may hold more.

The skill itself

The full text lives with its publisher and changes when they change it. Read it there rather than here — a mirrored copy of somebody else's procedure goes stale silently, and this page would have no way of telling you.
