What cpp-pro does

This skill guides the agent toward modern C++ conventions spanning standards from C++11 up to C++23. It prioritizes stack allocation, smart pointers such as unique_ptr, and move semantics over manual memory management. Raw loops get replaced with standard library algorithms, while error detection focuses on compile-time checks and constexpr.

The assistant supplies structured CMakeLists.txt files, headers with #pragma once, and unit test configurations using Google Test or Catch2. Generated solutions aim for clean execution under AddressSanitizer and ThreadSanitizer, alongside Google Benchmark suites. For extended patterns, the skill references resources/implementation-playbook.md. The guidelines will fail on legacy toolchains lacking at least C++11 support.

What it helps with

  • replace raw memory allocations with RAII and smart pointers
  • convert imperative loops into standard STL algorithms
  • configure CMakeLists.txt with modern C++ standards and flags
  • generate unit tests with Catch2 or Google Test alongside memory sanitizers

Example prompts for the agent

  • Refactor this resource wrapper using move semantics and the Rule of Five.
  • Create a thread-safe queue in C++20 using atomics and concepts.
  • Generate a CMakeLists.txt file with Google Benchmark targets for this parser.
