rust-async-patterns

Empowers your agent to program in Rust using modern asynchronous patterns. It's ideal for building concurrent and high-performance systems.

What it does

This tool helps you understand and use advanced asynchronous programming features in Rust, like Tokio. It's useful for building programs that do multiple things concurrently and efficiently.

When to use it

  • ✓When building Rust applications that need to be fast and responsive.
  • ✓When you are creating network services that handle many connections at the same time.
  • ✓If you need to debug or optimize the performance of your async Rust code.

Rust Async Patterns

Production patterns for async Rust programming with Tokio runtime, including tasks, channels, streams, and error handling.

Use this skill when

  • Building async Rust applications
  • Implementing concurrent network services
  • Using Tokio for async I/O
  • Handling async errors properly
  • Debugging async code issues
  • Optimizing async performance

Do not use this skill when

  • The task is unrelated to rust async 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.
FAQ

What is asynchronous programming?

It's a way of writing code that allows your program to do other things while waiting for a time-consuming task (like fetching data from the internet) to complete, making it faster and more efficient.

What is Tokio?

Tokio is a popular library in Rust that makes it easier to write asynchronous code, helping manage tasks and communication between them.

When should I use this tool?

Use this tool when you are working with Rust and need to build programs that perform multiple operations concurrently and efficiently, especially for networking and I/O.

Details

Original description by the author
