c99-game-opinionated-guide

c99-game-opinionated-guide is a skill for Claude Code from xonovex/platform. It costs 112 tokens per session (834 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A coding guide for C99 game-engine and runtime code. C99 is a version of the C programming language; the guide defines the project's rules for memory, maths, geometry and data layout.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when editing game or engine C files, especially for vectors, matrices, physics, geometry processing, memory buffers and batch-oriented data.
Why use it?
It removes guesswork when writing code in a project with specific engine conventions. It helps keep new changes consistent with existing code.

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

c99-game-opinionated-guide 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 17d 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.

C99 Game Engine Opinionated Guidelines

Build C99 game runtimes with caller-owned memory, contiguous data, and explicit engine boundaries. Apply c99-guide for the shared C99 foundation.

Requirements

  • Overlay on c99-guide - This guide carries only the game/engine opinionated decisions; for generic C99 idioms: const-correctness, designated initializers (ZII), fixed-width types, value-oriented APIs, and baseline error/return patterns, follow c99-guide

Math

Geometry Pipeline

Patterns

Gotchas

  • Vertex packing order matters for GPU upload: pack tightly and match the shader's attribute layout, not the C struct's natural padding
  • Quaternion math is sensitive to normalization drift: re-normalize after long chains of multiplications
  • Tagged unions with a sentinel TYPE_INVALID = 0 save initialization bugs; designated initializers default fields to zero
  • Builder patterns in C99 work via opaque structs + functions; never expose mutable struct fields across the public boundary

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.
