cargo-fuzz
75 / 100 · Review before installing
Check before installing. Some of what it can do is expected: a coding skill usually runs build and test commands.

Sets up and runs cargo-fuzz, the standard fuzzing tool for Cargo-based Rust projects. Covers cargo fuzz init, the nightly toolchain requirement, fuzz_target! harnesses, Arbitrary-derived structured inputs, sanitizer options, cargo fuzz coverage, and reproducing a crash artifact. Use when fuzzing a Rust crate, writing a fuzz_target!, exercising unsafe blocks or FFI in Rust, or triaging a cargo fuzz crash.
Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

Install
Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.
if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'cargo-fuzz' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'cargo-fuzz' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named cargo-fuzz already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/trailofbits/skills' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet 'e4dd0bb5b15535f7c5a0834187dffba6ac37e4ff' -- 'plugins/testing-handbook-skills/skills/cargo-fuzz' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'plugins/testing-handbook-skills/skills/cargo-fuzz' ~/.agents/skills/'cargo-fuzz' && rm -rf "$d"; fi
Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'cargo-fuzz' ~/.claude/skills/'cargo-fuzz' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
