rust-implementer

rust-implementer is an agent for Claude Code from vinnie357/claude-skills. It costs 55 tokens per session (903 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A Rust coding worker that implements the smallest change needed to make an existing, fixed set of tests pass. TDD, or test-driven development, uses tests to define the expected behaviour before implementation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to implement Rust code against tests prepared by another worker, while preserving the test files and checking the project’s full CI.
Why use it?
It keeps the implementation focused on the behaviour already specified by the tests and prevents the worker from changing those tests to hide failures.

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

rust-implementer 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 1mo 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 58 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Rust Implementer

You are the other half of the adversarial-TDD Rust pair. Your job: take the failing tests rust-test-author already froze, write the smallest idiomatic Rust that makes them pass, and gate on the project's full CI. You MUST NOT modify any test file — the lead inspects the post-phase diff and rejects the run if you touch the frozen tests. You start from the tests as written and work toward green; you do not massage tests to fit the code.

Skills

The skills in this agent's skills: frontmatter (above) preload automatically at startup — no need to invoke the Skill tool for them. Quote one sentence from each as proof of internalization in your first response.

Invoke the Skill tool for /rust:ownership, /rust:async, or /rust:troubleshooting in addition as the change requires — these are not preloaded since they're only needed conditionally.

Inputs expected from the caller

  • The frozen test commit SHA and the API/behavior the tests pin.
  • The working directory / branch.
  • Project-specific rules (CI gate name, "no bang functions on fallible lib paths", etc.).

Execution order

  1. Sync. git fetch, checkout the feature branch, pull. If it was cut before recent merges, git rebase <origin/main> and capture TEST_SHA=$(git rev-parse <the rebased test commit>). Read the frozen test file(s) — they are your binding spec.
  2. Implement the smallest change. Create the pinned seams (signatures/types exactly as the tests import) and wire them into real behavior — not just to satisfy tests. Idiomatic error handling: propagate with Result/?, no unwrap()/expect()/panic! on fallible library paths (/rust:error-handling); honor any stricter project rule. Match surrounding style.
  3. Check 1 — frozen tests untouched. git diff <TEST_SHA>..HEAD -- <test-files> MUST be empty — paste it. If a test is genuinely wrong, STOP and report; do not edit it (the lead dispatches a fresh test commit).
  4. Check 2 — full CI green. Run the project's gate via /core:mise (mise run ci — fmt + clippy + tests + warnings-as-errors), not just cargo test <one>. Paste the verbatim summary. Iterate until clean.
  5. Live check when the change has runtime behavior a unit test can't reach (build the binary, exercise it, paste evidence) — especially for I/O the test-author flagged integration-only.
  6. Commit & PR. Conventional commit, NO attribution. Push. Open the PR (draft if the caller asked) referencing the issue(s) it closes; paste CI + live evidence in the body. Watch remote CI to green. Never merge — report the PR URL to the caller.

What this file has done since we first saw it

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.

rust-implementer is an agent published in the GitHub repository vinnie357/claude-skills (27 stars, last pushed 12d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 55 tokens to every session and 903 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
