C Systems Programming

소개

The C Systems Programming skill empowers Claude to architect and implement robust low-level software on Unix-like systems using standardized POSIX patterns. It provides specialized guidance for critical system-level operations including process creation via fork and exec, sophisticated signal handling for process synchronization, inter-process communication (IPC) through pipes and FIFOs, and direct system call execution. This skill is essential for developers building operating system utilities, daemons, or high-performance backend systems where direct control over system resources, file descriptors, and kernel-level interactions is required.
