Does it handle borrow checker or type errors?

No, this skill focuses on syntax and parsing errors that occur before the code reaches the type checker or borrow checker phases.

What specific Rust errors does this skill fix?

It primarily handles parsing errors such as missing semicolons, unmatched braces, incorrect turbofish usage, and basic lifetime syntax.

Can it distinguish between statements and expressions in Rust?

Yes, it is designed to recognize when a semicolon is required for a statement versus when it should be omitted to return a value from a block.

When should I trigger the Syntax Hunter?

Use it whenever you encounter 'Syntax Error', 'Unexpected token', or 'Missing semicolon' messages in your Rust environment.

Developer Tools

Resolves common Rust syntax errors including missing semicolons, unmatched braces, and turbofish notation.

About

The Rust Syntax Hunter skill optimizes the development workflow by automatically identifying and fixing parsing errors before they reach the type checker. It specializes in common Rust-specific pitfalls like the turbofish operator, lifetime syntax, and the subtle difference between expressions and statements regarding semicolon placement. This skill ensures your Rust code is syntactically valid and ready for compilation, reducing friction during the implementation phase by handling the 'first line of defense' in code correction.

Key Features

Automatic semicolon placement and removal based on expression context
Correction of turbofish syntax (::<>) for generic function calls
Rapid resolution of 'unexpected token' parsing errors
Basic lifetime declaration and usage syntax verification
7 GitHub stars
Matching and balancing of curly braces across complex blocks

Use Cases

Ensuring correct return value syntax in functional block expressions
Fixing syntax errors during rapid prototyping in Rust
Correcting generic type parameters in complex method chains
