At a glance

A skill your agent uses when constructing a Felt from a numeric value in Rust — use checked construction unless the canonical bound is already proved.

  • Constructing a Felt from a numeric value in Rust — use checked construction unless the canonical bound is already proved
  • SKILL.md covers Rule, Why and Examples
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Felt Construction is an agent skill from 0xMiden/protocol. Use when constructing a Felt from a numeric value in Rust — use checked construction unless the canonical bound is already proved.

Its SKILL.md is about 440 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Development. It works with Rust. The repository describes itself as: Core components of the Miden protocol. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Constructing a Felt from a numeric value in Rust — use checked construction unless the canonical bound is already proved

Example prompts

  • “/felt-construction”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 5f6a246. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are rust).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Felt Construction loads about 439 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 38 tokens; SKILL.md has 114 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~38
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~439

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Use when constructing a `Felt` from a numeric value in Rust — use checked construction unless the canonical bound is already proved.

Felt Construction From Untrusted Numeric Inputs

Rule

Felt::new(x) is checked and returns Result, rejecting values greater than or equal to Felt::ORDER. Use it when a u64 input may exceed the field modulus.

Use one of:

  • Felt::from_u8(x), Felt::from_u16(x) or Felt::from_u32(x) for u32-or-smaller inputs. They are infallible and const, so prefer them to define constants.
  • Felt::from(x) for u32-or-smaller inputs in non-const code (infallible).
  • Felt::new(x) or Felt::try_from(x) for u64 inputs; both return Result and check the bound.
  • Felt::new_unchecked(x) only when x < Felt::ORDER has already been proved.

Why

The field modulus sits just below 2^64, so out-of-range inputs occupy a narrow band that tests can miss. Checked construction makes those inputs explicit errors; new_unchecked skips that protection.

Examples

rust
// Good: const constructor for a small constant
const NUM_SLOTS: Felt = Felt::from_u8(4);

// Good: u32 input, infallible conversion
let f = Felt::from(slot_index as u32);

// Good: untrusted u64 input, checked conversion returning Result
let f = Felt::new(user_value).map_err(|_| Error::FeltOverflow)?;

// Good: unchecked construction only after proving the canonical bound
assert!(bounded_value < Felt::ORDER);
let f = Felt::new_unchecked(bounded_value);

// Bad: unchecked construction on an untrusted value
let f = Felt::new_unchecked(user_value);

// Bad: new_unchecked for a constant that a const from_u* constructor covers
const NUM_SLOTS: Felt = Felt::new_unchecked(4);
