Core Web Vitals Fixer

Your LCP is 4 seconds, CLS keeps jumping, and FID feels sluggish. This tool scans your code and tells you exactly what to fix and how.

One command. Zero config. Just works.

Quick Start

npx ai-core-vitals ./src/

What It Does

Analyzes your code for Core Web Vitals issues
Identifies LCP, FID, and CLS problems
Provides specific fixes with code examples
Prioritizes issues by impact

Usage Examples

# Scan your source directory
npx ai-core-vitals ./src/

# Scan app directory
npx ai-core-vitals ./app/

# Focus on specific metric
npx ai-core-vitals ./src/ --metric lcp

Best Practices

Fix LCP first - it's usually the biggest win
Lazy load below the fold - don't load what users can't see
Reserve space for images - prevents CLS
Defer non-critical JS - improves FID
