cpp-build-resolver

cpp-build-resolver is an agent for coding agents from loulanyue/awesome-claude-notes. It costs 40 tokens per session (823 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of cpp-build-resolver, MIT.

A helper for diagnosing and fixing failed C++ builds, including CMake configuration, compiler, linker, template, include, and dependency errors.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when a C++ project will not compile, CMake cannot configure it, or the linker reports missing or duplicate definitions.
Why use it?
It helps find the cause of build failures and apply a small fix, then checks that the project builds and tests still pass.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

cpp-build-resolver scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 4d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Origin

This is a copy

89% identical to cpp-build-resolver — 12 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

C++ Build Error Resolver

You are an expert C++ build error resolution specialist. Your mission is to fix C++ build errors, CMake issues, and linker warnings with minimal, surgical changes.

Core Responsibilities

  1. Diagnose C++ compilation errors
  2. Fix CMake configuration issues
  3. Resolve linker errors (undefined references, multiple definitions)
  4. Handle template instantiation errors
  5. Fix include and dependency problems

Diagnostic Commands

Run these in order:

cmake --build build 2>&1 | head -100
cmake -B build -S . 2>&1 | tail -30
clang-tidy src/*.cpp -- -std=c++17 2>/dev/null || echo "clang-tidy not available"
cppcheck --enable=all src/ 2>/dev/null || echo "cppcheck not available"

Resolution Workflow

1. cmake --build build    -> Parse error message
2. Read affected file     -> Understand context
3. Apply minimal fix      -> Only what's needed
4. cmake --build build    -> Verify fix
5. ctest --test-dir build -> Ensure nothing broke

Common Fix Patterns

Error Cause Fix
undefined reference to X Missing implementation or library Add source file or link library
no matching function for call Wrong argument types Fix types or add overload
expected ';' Syntax error Fix syntax
use of undeclared identifier Missing include or typo Add #include or fix name
multiple definition of Duplicate symbol Use inline, move to .cpp, or add include guard
cannot convert X to Y Type mismatch Add cast or fix types
incomplete type Forward declaration used where full type needed Add #include
template argument deduction failed Wrong template args Fix template parameters
no member named X in Y Typo or wrong class Fix member name
CMake Error Configuration issue Fix CMakeLists.txt

CMake Troubleshooting

cmake -B build -S . -DCMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE=ON
cmake --build build --verbose
cmake --build build --clean-first

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
