What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you write consistent, idiomatic Zig code by standardizing style, memory management, error handling, and compile-time patterns, reducing bugs and review friction.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Zig Style Guidance: Follow the Zig Style Guide for readable, maintainable code.
• Tooling Expectations: Use zig fmt and zig test as the baseline workflow for formatting and validation.
• Memory and Safety Discipline: Pass explicit allocators first, rely on GeneralPurposeAllocator in debug, and use defer and errdefer for cleanup.
• Language Features: Apply error unions and comptime for robust error handling and compile-time metaprogramming.
• Use Case: Ideal for implementing or reviewing Zig modules that need predictable allocation behavior, safe resource cleanup, and idiomatic compiler-friendly structure.

Quick Start

Use this skill to review or generate Zig code that follows the listed style, memory, safety, and testing standards.
