How do I install the Build Rust skill?

Run npx skillmds@latest add d-o-hub/build-rust in your terminal (requires Node.js), paste this page's agent-chat prompt into Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-connected agent, or download the SKILL.md file and copy it into your agent's skills directory.

Is Build Rust safe to use?

This skill has not completed SkillMD's automated safety review yet. SkillMD never runs a skill's scripts for you; review the SKILL.md before installing.

Which AI agents work with Build Rust?

This skill is tagged as working with Claude Code, Claude.ai, OpenAI Codex. SKILL.md is an open format, so most agents that read a skills directory can load it too.

Is Build Rust free to use?

Yes. Installing skills from SkillMD is free, and the skill stays under its author's original license.

Rust Build Operations

Build Rust workspaces efficiently with the build-rust CLI.

CLI Usage

./scripts/build-rust.sh dev        # Development (fast, debug symbols)
./scripts/build-rust.sh release   # Production (optimized, stripped)
./scripts/build-rust.sh profile   # Performance analysis (--timings)
./scripts/build-rust.sh check     # Fast type-check only
./scripts/build-rust.sh clean     # Artifact cleanup
./scripts/build-rust.sh release do-memory-core  # Build specific crate

Build Modes

Mode	Use Case	Flags
`dev`	Development iteration	`--workspace`
`release`	Production deployment	`--release --workspace`
`profile`	Performance analysis	`--release --timings`
`check`	Fast validation	`--workspace` (type-check only)

Disk Space Optimization (ADR-032)

Dev profile reduces target/ size (~5.2 GB to ~2 GB):

[profile.dev]
debug = "line-tables-only"    # ~60% smaller
[profile.dev.package."*"]
debug = false                 # No debug for deps
[profile.dev.build-override]
opt-level = 3                 # Faster proc-macros

Cleanup: ./scripts/clean-artifacts.sh quick|standard|full Offload: CARGO_TARGET_DIR=/mnt/fastssd/rslm-target ./scripts/build-rust.sh dev

Error Handling

Issue	Fix
Timeout	`CARGO_BUILD_JOBS=4 cargo build` or use `check`
Memory	`cargo build -j 1` or monitor with `/usr/bin/time -v`
Dep conflicts	`cargo update` then `cargo tree -d
Cross-compilation	`rustup target add x86_64-unknown-linux-musl`

Common Workflows

# Full CI Pipeline
./scripts/code-quality.sh fmt && ./scripts/code-quality.sh clippy --workspace
cargo build --release --workspace && cargo nextest run --all && cargo test --doc

# Quick Development
cargo check -p do-memory-core && cargo test -p do-memory-core --lib

# Production Release
cargo build --release --workspace && strip target/release/do-memory-mcp

Troubleshooting

Issue	Fix
Incremental cache corruption	`cargo clean && cargo build`
Stale lock file	`rm Cargo.lock && cargo generate-lockfile`
Rust version mismatch	`rustup update stable && rustup default stable`

Verification Checklist

Build completes, no clippy warnings (cargo clippy -- -D warnings)
Tests compile, binary < 10MB stripped, startup < 100ms
