rust-guidelines

rust-guidelines is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from heyAyushh/stacc. It costs 49 tokens per session (261 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of Microsoft's guidelines for writing, reviewing, and documenting Rust code. Rust is a programming language focused on memory safety and reliable systems software.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when implementing or reviewing Rust code, choosing error-handling or concurrency patterns, assessing unsafe code, or documenting a design decision.
Why use it?
It gives developers specific recommendations for APIs, errors, unsafe code, concurrency, asynchronous work, performance, tests, and maintainability. It also explains how to record intentional departures from a guideline.

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-guidelines 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 26d 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

Pragmatic Rust Guidelines

Use the bundled Microsoft reference when writing or reviewing Rust code.

Workflow

  1. Identify the relevant concern: API design, correctness, documentation, errors, unsafe code, concurrency, async work, performance, testing, or maintainability.
  2. Search references/all.txt for the matching guideline title or rule ID (M-, C-, S-, or L-).
  3. Apply the guideline's recommendation and its rationale to the code under review.
  4. When a deviation is intentional, explain the tradeoff and record the relevant rule ID in the review or change notes.

The reference is a generated, consolidated document. Load only the sections relevant to the current Rust task.

Files

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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-guidelines is a skill published in the GitHub repository heyAyushh/stacc (3 stars, last pushed 26d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 49 tokens to every session and 261 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 2026-09-22.
