SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Add new C# APIs to SkiaSharp by wrapping Skia C++ functionality. Structured 6-phase workflow: C++ analysis → C API creation → submodule commits → binding generation → C# wrapper → testing.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • End-to-end automation of API binding: from C++ headers to ready C# wrappers.
  • Enforces a six-phase workflow with mandatory steps to ensure ABI stability and test coverage.
  • Use Case: When a new Skia API is requested, the skill guides through analysis, API surface creation, and validated bindings.

Quick Start

Use the add-api skill to start a 6-phase binding for a new Skia API, following the documented workflow.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create C# bindings for Skia C++ APIs?▼

To create C# bindings for Skia C++ APIs, you follow a six-phase workflow: C++ analysis, C API creation, submodule commits, binding generation, C# wrapper implementation, and testing to ensure ABI stability.

What is the process for wrapping Skia C++ functionality in C#?▼

Wrapping Skia C++ functionality in C# involves analyzing C++ headers, creating a C API surface, committing submodules, generating bindings, and writing C# wrappers with mandatory testing for ABI stability.

Can I automate SkiaSharp API binding generation from C++ to C#?▼

Yes, you can automate SkiaSharp API binding generation from C++ to C# using a structured workflow that handles C++ analysis, C API creation, binding generation, and native builds to produce safe, tested C# wrappers.

Does the SkiaSharp C# binding workflow require branch management?▼

Yes, the SkiaSharp C# binding workflow requires careful branch management alongside generator execution and native builds to ensure ABI stability and testability across the six phases.

How do I ensure ABI stability when adding new SkiaSharp C# APIs?▼

To ensure ABI stability when adding new SkiaSharp C# APIs, follow the enforced six-phase workflow with mandatory steps for C API creation, submodule commits, binding generation, and native builds.

What are the limitations of automating SkiaSharp API bindings?▼

Automating SkiaSharp API bindings requires careful branch management, generator execution, and native builds, meaning the process is limited to scenarios where new Skia API surface needs safe, tested C# bindings across the six-phase workflow.
