Does it support both binary and library projects?

Yes, the skill provides specific guidance for both, including entry point structures (main.rs vs lib.rs) and differentiated error handling strategies using anyhow for apps and thiserror for libraries.

What design patterns are included in this Rust skill?

The skill provides implementation patterns for the Builder pattern for complex object creation, the Newtype pattern for type safety, and auto-derive macros to reduce boilerplate code.

How does this skill enforce code quality?

It implements a 'Quality Gate' consisting of three mandatory checks: cargo fmt (formatting), cargo clippy (linting with warnings as errors), and cargo test. All three must pass before a commit is considered valid.

Can it help speed up slow Rust compilation?

Absolutely. It includes configurations for the mold linker (Linux) and instructions for setting up sccache to cache compiler artifacts across builds, significantly reducing iteration time.

Developer Tools

Streamlines Rust programming through automated quality gates, standardized project structures, and optimized development patterns.

About

This skill provides a comprehensive framework for Rust development within Claude Code, implementing rigorous quality gates that ensure code passes formatting, linting, and testing before commit. It guides users through standard project layouts, advanced error handling patterns with anyhow and thiserror, and performance optimizations like sccache and mold. By codifying best practices for CLI tools and libraries, it helps developers iterate faster while maintaining the safety and performance guarantees inherent to the Rust ecosystem.
