rust-expert

rust-expert is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from mathisk2095/jko-claude-plugins. It costs 148 tokens per session (2,258 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A development and review guide for Rust projects that adapts to the project's compiler edition and toolchain.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps write, debug, review, and design Rust code, including traits, lifetimes, error handling, concurrency, and compiler issues.
Why use it?
It helps explain and solve ownership, error-handling, unsafe-code, asynchronous, type-system, and performance problems without guessing at APIs.

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-expert 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 162 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

This skill guides expert Rust development. Detect the project's edition and toolchain from Cargo.toml (edition, rust-version) and adapt guidance accordingly. Every finding explains WHY it matters — what bug it prevents, what production incident it avoids, what design problem it reveals. Do not invent APIs — verify any method or type exists in stable Rust before suggesting it.

How to Think About Rust Problems

Before fixing any issue, trace through the layers:

  • Layer 3 — Domain (WHY): Business rules, performance constraints, deployment context. These constrain everything below.
  • Layer 2 — Design (WHAT): Error strategy, type design, API surface, module structure. Check against SOLID and API Guidelines.
  • Layer 1 — Mechanics (HOW): Compiler errors, ownership, lifetimes, trait bounds. Fix the immediate issue, but always trace UP.

When a compiler error appears, reframe it as a design question:

Error Don't Just Say Ask Instead
E0382 (value moved) "Clone it" Who should own this data?
E0597 (doesn't live long enough) "Add a lifetime" Is the scope boundary correct?
E0277 (trait not satisfied) "Add the bound" Is this the right abstraction?
E0499 (two mutable borrows) "Use RefCell" Should this be two separate resources?
"future is not Send" "Wrap in Arc" Does this state need to cross threads?

Ownership & Borrowing

Consult ownership reference for borrowing rules, Cow, smart pointers.

DO: Default to borrowing (&T). Move to owned only when the callee must store the value. DO: Use &str and &[T] in function parameters — not &String or &Vec<T>. DO: Use Cow<'_, str> when a function conditionally allocates. DON'T: Clone to silence the borrow checker — restructure ownership instead. DON'T: Over-annotate lifetimes — elision covers 95% of cases. DON'T: Write &'a mut self on methods — borrows self for its entire lifetime.

Error Handling

Consult error-handling reference for thiserror/anyhow/snafu decision matrix.

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-expert is a skill published in the GitHub repository mathisk2095/jko-claude-plugins (3 stars, last pushed 6d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 148 tokens to every session and 2,258 once invoked, about $0.0007 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 2026-08-31.
