What does argent-react-native-optimization do?
argent-react-native-optimization is a skill that runs a four-phase performance pass on a React Native app. Phase 1 runs ESLint with a performance ruleset and sends one sub-agent per file to fix results. Phase 2 sends one sub-agent per checklist item on memoization, lists, animations, effect cleanup and context. Phase 3 profiles real user flows with the Argent React and native profilers, fixes the top offender, then measures again and reverts changes with no net gain. Phase 4 walks every screen in scope and checks the debugger log registry and screenshots for red screens. It skips useMemo advice when React Compiler is on, unless the fiber tree shows a bail-out.
