memory-safety-patterns SKILL.md skillA
memory-safety-patterns from dicklesworthstone/pi_agent_rust is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add dicklesworthstone/pi_agent_rust/memory-safety-patterns@git:20260205.788be98Pins git:20260205.788be98 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Implement memory-safe programming with RAII, ownership, smart pointers, and resource management across Rust, C++, and C. Use when writing safe systems code, managing resources, or preventing memory bugs.
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
# Memory Safety Patterns Cross-language patterns for memory-safe programming including RAII, ownership, smart pointers, and resource management. ## When to Use This Skill - Writing memory-safe systems code - Managing resources (files, sockets, memory) - Preventing use-after-free and leaks - Implementing RAII patterns - Choosing between languages for safety - Debugging memory issues ## Core Concepts ### 1. Memory Bug Categories | Bug Type | Description | Prevention | | -------------------- | -------------------------------- | ----------------- | | **Use-after-free** | Access freed memory | Ownership, RAII | | **Double-free** | Free same memory twice | Smart pointers | | **Memory leak** | Never free memory | RAII, GC | | **Buffer overflow** | Write past buffer end | Bounds checking | | **Dangling pointer** | Pointer to freed memory | Lifetime tracking | | **Data race** | Concurrent unsynchronized access | Ownership, Sync | ### 2. Safety Spectrum ``` Manual (C) → Smart Pointers (C++) → Ownership (Rust) → GC (Go, Java) …

How to install
mdr add dicklesworthstone/pi_agent_rust/memory-safety-patterns@sha256:8a0841f8e3299e46The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260205.788be98, 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.
