What this skill does
Memory Safety Patterns Cross-language patterns for memory-safe programming including RAII, ownership, smart pointers, and resource management. Use this skill when Writing memory-safe systems code Managing resources (files, sockets, memory) Preventing use-after-free and leaks Implementing RAII patterns Choosing between languages for safety Debugging memory issues Do not use this skill when The task is unrelated to memory safety patterns You need a different domain or tool outside this scope Instructions Clarify goals, constraints, and required inputs. Apply relevant best practices and validate outcomes. Provide actionable steps and verification. If detailed examples are required, open resources/implementation-playbook.md. Resources resources/implementation-playbook.md for detailed patterns and examples. Limitations Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above. Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review. Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.
