To enforce modern C++ coding standards, this Skill reviews and refactors your code to ensure compliance with C++ Core Guidelines, focusing on RAII, immutability, static typing, and resource safety across C++17, C++20, and C++23 codebases.

You need to refactor C++ code for resource safety when raw pointers or manual memory management introduce risks. The Skill helps by enforcing RAII and guiding decisions like using smart pointers over raw pointers to ensure clear interfaces and resource safety.

The best way to decide between raw and smart pointers is to consult the C++ Core Guidelines. This Skill assists in feature decision-making by evaluating your C++ code and recommending smart pointers to enforce resource safety and modern coding standards.

Yes, you can review C++17 code for immutability and static typing compliance. The Skill is applicable to C++17, C++20, and C++23 codebases, helping you author and refactor code to strictly adhere to modern C++ core guidelines.

Refactoring C++ code to use enum class over enum improves code quality by enforcing strong static typing and preventing implicit conversions. The Skill aids these refactoring decisions to ensure clear interfaces and adherence to modern C++ standards.

You should use C++ Core Guidelines for code review because they provide specific, modern C++ rules like RAII and immutability. The Skill leverages these guidelines to deliver targeted refactoring and review, ensuring resource safety and clear interfaces better than general practices.
