Helps with Rust, guidelines as part of developing backend services and APIs workflows.

Repository

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 lambdamechanic/sk --skill rust-guidelines -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 lambdamechanic/sk at e4b25f58b1.

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

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 provides guidance and best practices for writing idiomatic and maintainable Rust code. It can analyze existing Rust code, suggest improvements based on established guidelines (like the Clippy lints), and help generate new Rust code that adheres to these principles. The skill aims to improve code quality, readability, and performance in Rust projects.

When to use it

  • Code Review: Have the agent review a block of Rust code for potential style violations or areas where improvements can be made.
  • New Project Setup: Ask the agent to generate initial project scaffolding with appropriate linting rules configured.
  • Learning Rust: Use the skill to understand and apply common Rust coding conventions while learning the language.
  • Refactoring Existing Code: Get suggestions for refactoring existing Rust codebases to align with best practices.

Key capabilities

  • Rust code analysis
  • Clippy linting recommendations
  • Idiomatic Rust code generation
  • Adherence to established Rust guidelines

Example prompts

  • "Review this Rust code and suggest improvements: [code snippet]"
  • "Generate a new Rust project with Clippy configured for maximum verbosity."
  • "Explain the purpose of the 'unwrap()' method in Rust and when it should be avoided."

Tips & gotchas

The skill's effectiveness depends on having access to valid Rust code. Ensure the provided code is syntactically correct for accurate analysis and suggestions.
