How do I integrate custom lints into my CI/CD pipeline?

The skill includes documentation on configuring automated lint execution, result reporting, and quality gates within continuous integration environments.

Do I need to know Rust compiler internals to use this skill?

While helpful, this skill provides patterns and guidance to help you navigate the necessary AST and MIR concepts required for effective lint development without being a compiler expert.

What is a custom Clippy lint?

A custom Clippy lint is a user-defined rule that checks Rust code for specific patterns, helping to catch bugs or enforce style guidelines not covered by the default toolset.

Can I use this skill to contribute to the official Clippy repository?

Yes, it includes specific guidance on standard practices, testing requirements, and submission workflows for contributing code to the upstream Clippy project.

Security & Testing

Develops and implements custom Rust Clippy lints to enforce domain-specific code standards and professional static analysis.

About

The Clippy Custom skill empowers Rust developers to extend the Clippy static analysis tool with bespoke lints tailored to their project's unique requirements. It provides comprehensive guidance on implementing lint passes, navigating the Rust compiler's internal APIs (AST and MIR), and contributing to the official Clippy repository. This skill is indispensable for teams looking to automate the enforcement of specific architectural patterns, prevent recurring domain-specific bugs, and maintain high-quality Rust codebases through advanced static analysis.
