What it does

Rust Pro is an agent skill from davila7/claude-code-templates. Master Rust 1.75+ with modern async patterns, advanced type system features, and production-ready systems programming.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.9k 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, covering Type safety and Async programming. It works with Rust. The repository describes itself as: CLI tool for configuring and monitoring Claude Code. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Type safety
  • Tasks that involve Async programming

Example prompts

  • “/rust-pro”

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Clarify performance, safety, and runtime constraints.
  2. Choose async/runtime and crate ecosystem approach.
  3. Implement with tests and linting.
  4. Profile and optimize hotspots.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4c82aba. 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.

    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

Rust Pro loads about 1.9k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 32 tokens; SKILL.md has 888 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~32
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.9k

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.

When should I use Rust Pro?

Rust Pro fits situations like: tasks that involve Type safety; tasks that involve Async programming.

How do I install Rust Pro in Claude Code?

Run `npx skills add davila7/claude-code-templates --skill rust-pro -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (cli-tool/components/skills/development/rust-pro in davila7/claude-code-templates) into .claude/skills/rust-pro in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.

How do I install Rust Pro in Codex?

Run `npx skills add davila7/claude-code-templates --skill rust-pro -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (cli-tool/components/skills/development/rust-pro in davila7/claude-code-templates) into .agents/skills/rust-pro in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.

Can I use Rust Pro in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add davila7/claude-code-templates --skill rust-pro -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/rust-pro, .gemini/skills/rust-pro, .github/skills/rust-pro and .opencode/skills/rust-pro in your project.

What does Rust Pro need to run?

SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Rust Pro is instructions for the agent only.

Does Rust Pro access the network?

SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is Rust Pro safe to install?

Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.

What licence does Rust Pro use?

Rust Pro is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.

How many tokens does Rust Pro use?

About 1.9k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 7.4k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.

What are the alternatives to Rust Pro?

Skills that share tags, products or a category with Rust Pro: RTK Rust Design Patterns (rtk-ai/rtk, 83k stars), Rust Path Types (openinterpreter/openinterpreter, 69k stars), Rust Async Patterns (diodeme/Gold-Band, 143 stars) and Rust Ffi (ariebovenberg/whenever, 2.4k stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.

Who maintains Rust Pro?

davila7 (a GitHub user) maintains it in davila7/claude-code-templates, which has 32,432 GitHub stars. The repository holds 477 skills in this directory. The repository was last updated on October 7, 2026.
