Cpp Pro

Approach

1. Prefer stack allocation and RAII over manual memory management
2. Use smart pointers when heap allocation is necessary
3. Follow the Rule of Zero/Three/Five
4. Use const correctness and constexpr where applicable
5. Leverage STL algorithms over raw loops
6. Profile with tools like perf and VTune

Output

• Modern C++ code following best practices
• CMakeLists.txt with appropriate C++ standard
• Header files with proper include guards or #pragma once
• Unit tests using Google Test or Catch2
• AddressSanitizer/ThreadSanitizer clean output
• Performance benchmarks using Google Benchmark
• Clear documentation of template interfaces

Follow C++ Core Guidelines. Prefer compile-time errors over runtime errors.

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.
