193 Rust coding rules across 14 categories. Use when writing, reviewing, or refactoring Rust code. Covers ownership, errors, async, API design, memory, performance, testing, and anti-patterns.
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 Comprehensive guide for writing high-quality, idiomatic, and highly optimized Rust code. Contains 193 rules across 14 categories, prioritized by impact to guide LLMs in code generation and refactoring. Quick reference below; the reasoning behind each rule family lives in the per-source digests under [`references/`](references/) (adapted from [BeautifulRust](https://github.com/morganlinton/BeautifulRust), MIT). ## When to Apply Reference these guidelines when: - Writing new Rust functions, structs, or modules - Implementing error handling or async code - Designing public APIs for libraries - Reviewing code for ownership/borrowing issues - Optimizing memory usage or reducing allocations - Tuning performance for hot paths - Refactoring existing Rust code ## Rule Categories by Priority | Priority | Category | Impact | Prefix | Rules | |----------|----------|--------|--------|-------| | 1 | Ownership & Borrowing | CRITICAL | `own-` | 14 | | 2 | Error Handling | CRITICAL | `err-` | 14 | | 3 | Memory Optimization | CRITICAL | `mem-` | 15 | | 4 | API Design | HIGH | `api-` | 17 | | 5 | Async/Await | HIGH | `async-` | 16 | …

How to install
mdr add vinhnx/vtcode/rust-skills@sha256:ae6546574a64bbe6The 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.
