Purpose

This project provides a collection of 179 Markdown-based rules and best practices that AI coding assistants can reference to write better, more idiomatic Rust code.

Security Assessment

Overall risk: Low. This tool is essentially a static text library rather than executable software. The installation process relies on standard, widely-used commands (`git clone`, `curl`, and `npx`). It does not request dangerous system permissions, access sensitive data, or make external network requests during runtime. Because it is just a set of instructions injected into your AI agent's context window, there is no traditional code execution surface to exploit. The only minor risk lies in running the `npx add-skill` script, which downloads external code, but manual installation via `git` bypasses this entirely.

Quality Assessment

The project is highly regarded and well-maintained. It recently received updates and has garnered 150 GitHub stars, indicating solid community trust. It is fully open-source under the permissive and standard MIT license. The documentation is exceptionally clear, detailing exactly what the 14 categories of rules cover and providing straightforward, multi-platform installation instructions. While the automated code scanner could not evaluate the source files (likely because the core content is plain Markdown rather than a standard programming language), the transparent nature of text-based rules makes malicious content easily visible to the naked eye.

Verdict

Safe to use.
SUMMARY

A collection of 179 rules that AI coding agents can use when writing Rust.

README.md

Rust Skills

179 Rust rules your AI coding agent can use to write better code.

Works with Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Copilot, Codex, Aider, Zed, Amp, Cline, and pretty much any other agent that supports skills.

Install

npx add-skill leonardomso/rust-skills

That's it. The CLI figures out which agents you have and installs the skill to the right place.

How to use it

After installing, just ask your agent:

/rust-skills review this function
/rust-skills is my error handling idiomatic?
/rust-skills check for memory issues

The agent loads the relevant rules and applies them to your code.

What's in here

179 rules split into 14 categories:

Category Rules What it covers
Ownership & Borrowing 12 When to borrow vs clone, Arc/Rc, lifetimes
Error Handling 12 thiserror for libs, anyhow for apps, the ? operator
Memory 15 SmallVec, arenas, avoiding allocations
API Design 15 Builder pattern, newtypes, sealed traits
Async 15 Tokio patterns, channels, spawn_blocking
Optimization 12 LTO, inlining, PGO, SIMD
Naming 16 Following Rust API Guidelines
Type Safety 10 Newtypes, parse don't validate
Testing 13 Proptest, mockall, criterion
Docs 11 Doc examples, intra-doc links
Performance 11 Iterators, entry API, collect patterns
Project Structure 11 Workspaces, module layout
Linting 11 Clippy config, CI setup
Anti-patterns 15 Common mistakes and how to fix them

Each rule has:

  • Why it matters
  • Bad code example
  • Good code example
  • Links to official docs when relevant

Manual install

If add-skill doesn't work for your setup, here's how to install manually:

Claude Code

Global (applies to all projects):

git clone https://github.com/leonardomso/rust-skills.git ~/.claude/skills/rust-skills

Or just for one project:

git clone https://github.com/leonardomso/rust-skills.git .claude/skills/rust-skills
OpenCode
git clone https://github.com/leonardomso/rust-skills.git .opencode/skills/rust-skills
Cursor
git clone https://github.com/leonardomso/rust-skills.git .cursor/skills/rust-skills

Or just grab the skill file:

curl -o .cursorrules https://raw.githubusercontent.com/leonardomso/rust-skills/master/SKILL.md
Windsurf
mkdir -p .windsurf/rules
curl -o .windsurf/rules/rust-skills.md https://raw.githubusercontent.com/leonardomso/rust-skills/master/SKILL.md
OpenAI Codex
git clone https://github.com/leonardomso/rust-skills.git .codex/skills/rust-skills

Or use the AGENTS.md standard:

curl -o AGENTS.md https://raw.githubusercontent.com/leonardomso/rust-skills/master/SKILL.md
GitHub Copilot
mkdir -p .github
curl -o .github/copilot-instructions.md https://raw.githubusercontent.com/leonardomso/rust-skills/master/SKILL.md
Aider

Add to .aider.conf.yml:

read: path/to/rust-skills/SKILL.md

Or pass it directly:

aider --read path/to/rust-skills/SKILL.md
Zed
curl -o AGENTS.md https://raw.githubusercontent.com/leonardomso/rust-skills/master/SKILL.md
Amp
git clone https://github.com/leonardomso/rust-skills.git .agents/skills/rust-skills
Cline / Roo Code
mkdir -p .clinerules
curl -o .clinerules/rust-skills.md https://raw.githubusercontent.com/leonardomso/rust-skills/master/SKILL.md
Other agents (AGENTS.md)

If your agent supports the AGENTS.md standard:

curl -o AGENTS.md https://raw.githubusercontent.com/leonardomso/rust-skills/master/SKILL.md
