Ensures your C++ code adheres to established standards for improved readability, maintainability, and compatibility.

Install on your platform

Showing Claude Code. One command installs this skill into any of the agents below.

  1. 1

    Run this in your project

    terminal
    $ npx skills add jdubray/puffin --skill coding-standard-cpp -a claude-code
  2. Uses the open-source skills CLI and needs Node.js. Add -g to install it for your user instead of this project.

Install target

Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned jdubray/puffin at da52d42cba.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

Scanned
1 file, 64 lines
This is a static scan, not a review. It reads the skill's files; it does not run them, and it cannot tell you whether the skill is any good or whether the code does what its description says. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent.

About this skill

What it does

This skill enforces and checks adherence to a C++ coding standard. It can analyze existing codebases, suggest improvements based on the defined style guidelines, and automatically format code to ensure consistency across projects. The goal is to improve code readability, maintainability, and reduce errors related to stylistic inconsistencies.

When to use it

  • New Project Setup: Apply the coding standard from the beginning of a new C++ project to establish consistent practices.
  • Code Reviews: Use this skill to automatically check pull requests for adherence to the defined coding standards, reducing manual review effort.
  • Legacy Codebase Refactoring: Gradually apply the standard to an existing codebase to improve its overall quality and consistency.
  • Team Onboarding: Help new team members quickly understand and adopt the project's C++ coding style.

Key capabilities

  • C++ code analysis
  • Style guideline enforcement
  • Automated code formatting
  • Suggestion of improvements based on standard

Example prompts

  • "Check this C++ file for compliance with the coding standard."
  • "Format this code block according to the project's C++ style guide."
  • "Suggest improvements to this function to align with the established C++ coding standards."

Tips & gotchas

This skill requires a defined C++ coding standard to be effective. Ensure that the target codebase is written in C++.
