memory-safety-patterns

memory-safety-patterns is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from beel-collab/presets.dev. It costs 20 tokens per session (294 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide to programming patterns that keep memory and other resources managed safely across languages. It covers ownership, automatic cleanup, smart pointers, and resource lifetimes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when writing systems code, managing files or sockets, choosing resource-management approaches, or investigating memory issues.
Why use it?
It helps prevent problems such as memory leaks and using data after it has been released.

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

memory-safety-patterns 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.

What it actually says

Memory Safety Patterns

Cross-language patterns for memory-safe programming including RAII, ownership, smart pointers, and resource management.

Use this skill when

  • Writing memory-safe systems code
  • Managing resources (files, sockets, memory)
  • Preventing use-after-free and leaks
  • Implementing RAII patterns
  • Choosing between languages for safety
  • Debugging memory issues

Do not use this skill when

  • The task is unrelated to memory safety patterns
  • You need a different domain or tool outside this scope

Instructions

  • Clarify goals, constraints, and required inputs.
  • Apply relevant best practices and validate outcomes.
  • Provide actionable steps and verification.
  • If detailed examples are required, open resources/implementation-playbook.md.

Resources

  • resources/implementation-playbook.md for detailed patterns and examples.

Limitations

  • Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above.
  • Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review.
  • Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.

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.

memory-safety-patterns is a skill published in the GitHub repository beel-collab/presets.dev (2 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 20 tokens to every session and 294 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 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 2026-09-03.
