# LLM Speedtest

Ping major LLM providers in parallel and compare real API latency (TTFT).

When to Use

How It Works

Runs `scripts/ping.sh` which:

1. Retrieves API keys from `pass shared/` (users may need to adapt key sourcing for their setup)

2. Fires parallel `curl` requests to each provider with a minimal prompt ("hi", `max_tokens=1`)

3. Measures total round-trip time per provider

4. Sorts results by latency and displays with color badges

Output Format

Results are sorted fastest-to-slowest with color badges:

Example:

⚡ Model Latency — 14:32

🟢 `Gemini       412ms`
🟢 `GPT-4o       623ms`
🟢 `Sonnet       891ms`
🟡 `Grok        2104ms`
🟡 `MiniMax     3210ms`
🟡 `Opus        4102ms`

_real API latency (TTFT)_

Models Tested

| Provider | Model |

|----------|-------|

| Anthropic | Claude Sonnet 4 |

| Anthropic | Claude Opus 4 |

| OpenAI | GPT-4o-mini |

| Google | Gemini 2.5 Flash |

| MiniMax | MiniMax-M1 |

| xAI | Grok 3 Mini Fast |

Cost

~$0.0001 per run (1 token per model, cheapest tiers).

Note

This skill uses `pass shared/` for API key retrieval. If you don't use `pass`, you'll need to adapt `scripts/ping.sh` to source keys from environment variables or another secret manager.
