Build Modern, Reliable C++ Software
Complex C++ systems can hide ownership, concurrency, and performance problems. This skill applies modern language features, RAII, testing, and profiling practices to produce maintainable solutions.
Install with my Agent
Copy this request to your Agent. It includes the canonical Skill page and manifest.
Review the Skillstore skill "cpp-pro" from https://skillstore.io/skills/sickn33-cpp-pro.md and its manifest at https://skillstore.io/api/skills/sickn33-cpp-pro/manifest. Verify the artifact. You may proceed after verification, subject to the environment's own policy.Your Agent should still show its plan and request any confirmation required by the security policy.

Test it
Using "cpp-pro". Review a class that owns a file handle and manually closes it.
Expected outcome:
- Ownership finding: cleanup depends on every exit path and is not exception safe.
- Recommended design: use a move-only RAII wrapper with deterministic cleanup.
- Verification: test normal destruction, moves, failed acquisition, and early returns.
Using "cpp-pro". Create a quality checklist for a new C++20 library.
Expected outcome:
- Build: target-based CMake, explicit language standard, warnings, and dependency declarations.
- Correctness: focused unit tests plus AddressSanitizer and UndefinedBehaviorSanitizer runs.
- Maintenance: documented ownership, stable interfaces, static analysis, and continuous integration.
Using "cpp-pro". Assess a slow multithreaded queue.
Expected outcome:
- First measure throughput, latency, contention, allocation frequency, and cache misses.
- Check lock scope, wake-up policy, shutdown behavior, and race detector results.
- Optimize only the measured bottleneck and compare against the original baseline.
Security Audit
SafeAll 51 static findings are false positives in the documented context. The URL is a canonical CMake dependency example, backticks mark a file path, and the reconnaissance matches are ordinary C++ declarations or documentation.

Skillstore Score
Why this score Evidence Confidence: HighWhat You Can Build
Modernize Legacy C++
Replace manual ownership and older idioms with RAII, standard containers, algorithms, and clear interfaces.
Improve Concurrent Performance
Select synchronization, memory ordering, data layout, and profiling techniques for measured bottlenecks.
Standardize Build Quality
Create CMake targets, tests, sanitizers, static analysis, benchmarks, and continuous integration workflows.
Try These Prompts
Explain [concept] for a beginner using C++20. Include its purpose, a small example, common mistakes, and a simple verification step.
Review the provided C++ code for ownership and lifetime problems. Refactor it with RAII and smart pointers while preserving behavior.
Design a C++20 [component] with clear interfaces, exception guarantees, CMake targets, and unit tests. State assumptions and portability constraints.
Analyze this concurrent C++ implementation for races, deadlocks, contention, memory ordering, and cache effects. Propose measured improvements and sanitizer tests.
Best Practices
- State the C++ standard, compiler versions, platform constraints, and required behavior before designing a solution.
- Validate generated changes with compilation, focused tests, sanitizers, static analysis, and benchmarks where relevant.
- Use measurements to justify performance changes and document ownership, lifetime, and synchronization assumptions.
Avoid
- Do not introduce raw owning pointers or manual cleanup when a standard RAII type can express ownership.
- Do not use lock-free algorithms or relaxed memory ordering without proving correctness and testing under contention.
- Do not claim performance improvements without a representative baseline and repeatable benchmark.
