Automated safety checks
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.

About this skill
What it does
This skill provides access to foundational knowledge and code related to Tony Hoare's contributions to Rust programming. It allows AI agents to understand and apply concepts like ownership, borrowing, lifetimes, and other core features of the language as originally envisioned by Hoare. This enables more robust and efficient Rust code generation and understanding.
When to use it
- Generating Rust code snippets: When you need an agent to produce correct and idiomatic Rust code for a specific task.
- Explaining Rust concepts: To help users understand the nuances of ownership, borrowing, and lifetimes in Rust.
- Debugging Rust programs: When analyzing existing Rust code or identifying potential memory safety issues.
- Translating algorithms to Rust: To ensure accurate and performant implementations when porting logic from other languages.
Key capabilities
- Understanding of Hoare's original design principles for Rust.
- Knowledge of ownership, borrowing, and lifetimes.
- Ability to generate idiomatic Rust code.
- Explanation of core Rust language features.
Example prompts
- "Explain the concept of borrowing in Rust."
- "Write a Rust function that uses ownership correctly to process a vector of strings."
- "How do lifetimes prevent dangling pointers in Rust?"
Tips & gotchas
The skill's effectiveness is dependent on the agent’s existing understanding of programming concepts. While it provides foundational knowledge, some familiarity with software development will improve results.
