Implements modern Perl 5.36+ idioms and best practices to build robust, maintainable applications.
Modern Perl Patterns is a specialized capability that equips Claude with the standards and conventions required for high-quality Perl development in the 5.36+ era. It shifts focus away from legacy 'boilerplate' toward modern features like subroutine signatures, postfix dereferencing, and the native class keyword. This skill is essential for developers looking to refactor technical debt, architect new CPAN-quality modules, or implement secure, idiomatic logic for file I/O and regular expressions. By following these patterns, you ensure your Perl codebase remains readable, testable, and compliant with contemporary community standards.
