Guide for writing idiomatic Rust code based on Apollo GraphQL's best practices handbook. Use this skill when: (1) writing new Rust code or functions, (2) reviewing or refactoring existing Rust code, (3) deciding between borrowing vs cloning or ownership patterns, (4) implementing error handling with Result types, (5) optimizing Rust code for performance, (6) writing tests or documentation for Rust projects.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Rust Best Practices

Apply these guidelines when writing or reviewing Rust code. Based on Apollo GraphQL's [Rust Best Practices Handbook](https://github.com/apollographql/rust-best-practices).

## Best Practices Reference

Before reviewing, familiarize yourself with Apollo's Rust best practices. Read ALL relevant chapters in the same turn in parallel. Reference these files when providing feedback:

- [Chapter 1 - Coding Styles and Idioms](references/chapter_01.md): Borrowing vs cloning, Copy trait, Option/Result handling, iterators, comments
- [Chapter 2 - Clippy and Linting](references/chapter_02.md): Clippy configuration, important lints, workspace lint setup
- [Chapter 3 - Performance Mindset](references/chapter_03.md): Profiling, avoiding redundant clones, stack vs heap, zero-cost abstractions
- [Chapter 4 - Error Handling](references/chapter_04.md): Result vs panic, thiserror vs anyhow, error hierarchies
- [Chapter 5 - Automated Testing](references/chapter_05.md): Test naming, one assertion per test, snapshot testing
- [Chapter 6 - Generics and Dispatch](references/chapter_06.md): Static vs dynamic dispatch, trait objects
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add elaboration-studio/agentic-hub/rust-best-practices@sha256:80eeb8ab3da0c889

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.1.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
