Rust Question Router

Version: 2.0.0 | Last Updated: 2026-01-17

New in v2.0: Meta-Cognition Routing - Three-layer cognitive model for deeper answers

Meta-Cognition Framework

Core Principle

Don't answer directly. Trace through the cognitive layers first.

Layer 3: Domain Constraints (WHY)
├── Business rules, regulatory requirements
├── domain-fintech, domain-web, domain-cli, etc.
└── "Why is it designed this way?"

Layer 2: Design Choices (WHAT)
├── Architecture patterns, DDD concepts
├── m09-m15 skills
└── "What pattern should I use?"

Layer 1: Language Mechanics (HOW)
├── Ownership, borrowing, lifetimes, traits
├── m01-m07 skills
└── "How do I implement this in Rust?"

Routing by Entry Point

| User Signal | Entry Layer | Direction | First Skill | |-------------|-------------|-----------|-------------| | E0xxx error | Layer 1 | Trace UP ↑ | m01-m07 | | Compile error | Layer 1 | Trace UP ↑ | Error table below | | "How to design..." | Layer 2 | Check L3, then DOWN ↓ | m09-domain | | "Building [domain] app" | Layer 3 | Trace DOWN ↓ | domain-* | | "Best practice..." | Layer 2 | Both directions | m09-m15 | | Performance issue | Layer 1 → 2 | UP then DOWN | m10-performance |

CRITICAL: Dual-Skill Loading

When domain keywords are present, you MUST load BOTH skills:

| Domain Keywords | L1 Skill | L3 Skill | |-----------------|----------|----------| | Web API, HTTP, axum, handler | m07-concurrency | domain-web | | 交易, 支付, trading, payment | m01-ownership | domain-fintech | | CLI, terminal, clap | m07-concurrency | domain-cli | | kubernetes, grpc, microservice | m07-concurrency | domain-cloud-native | | embedded, no_std, MCU | m02-resource | domain-embedded |

Example: "Web API 报错 Rc cannot be sent"

  • Load: m07-concurrency (L1 - Send/Sync error)
  • Load: domain-web (L3 - Web state management)
  • Answer must include both layers

Trace Examples

User: "My trading system reports E0382"

1. Entry: Layer 1 (E0382 = ownership error)
2. Load: m01-ownership skill
3. Trace UP: What design led to this?
4. Check: domain-fintech (trading = immutable audit data)
5. Answer: Don't clone, use Arc<T> for shared immutable data
User: "How should I handle user authentication?"

1. Entry: Layer 2 (design question)
2. Trace UP to Layer 3: domain-web constraints
3. Load: domain-web skill (security, stateless HTTP)
4. Trace DOWN: m06-error-handling, m07-concurrency
5. Answer: JWT with proper error types, async handlers

INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLAUDE

Default Project Settings (When Creating Rust Code)

When creating new Rust projects or Cargo.toml files, ALWAYS use:

[package]
edition = "2024"  # ALWAYS use latest stable edition
rust-version = "1.85"

[lints.rust]
unsafe_code = "warn"

[lints.clippy]
all = "warn"
pedantic = "warn"

Rules:

  • ALWAYS use edition = "2024" (not 2021 or earlier)
  • Include rust-version for MSRV clarity
  • Enable clippy lints by default
  • DO NOT use WebSearch for Rust questions - use skills and agents

Meta-Cognition Routing Process

  1. Identify Entry Layer

    • E0xxx errors → Layer 1
    • Design questions → Layer 2
    • Domain-specific → Layer 3
  2. Load Appropriate Skill

    • Read the skill file for context
    • Note the "Trace Up" and "Trace Down" sections
  3. Trace Through Layers

    • Don't stop at surface-level fix
    • Ask "Why?" to trace up
    • Ask "How?" to trace down
  4. Answer with Context

    • Include the reasoning chain
    • Reference which layers/skills informed the answer

When User Requests Intent Analysis

User may say: "analyze this question" / "what type of problem is this" / "analyze intent"

Execute these steps:

  1. Extract Keywords - Identify Rust concepts, error codes, crate names
  2. Identify Entry Layer - Which cognitive layer is this?
  3. Map to Skills - Which m0x/m1x/domain skills apply?
  4. Report Analysis - Tell user the layers and suggested trace
  5. Invoke Skill - Load and apply the matched skill

Priority Order

  1. Identify cognitive layer (L1/L2/L3)
  2. Load entry skill (m0x/m1x/domain)

Workflow Example with Meta-Cognition

User: "Why am I getting E0382 in my trading system?"

Analysis:
1. Entry: Layer 1 (E0382 = ownership/move error)
2. Load: m01-ownership skill
3. Context: "trading system" → domain-fintech

Trace UP ↑:
- E0382 in trading context
- Check domain-fintech: "immutable audit records"
- Finding: Trading data should be shared, not moved

Response:
"E0382 indicates a value was moved when still needed.
In a trading system (domain-fintech), transaction records
should be immutable and shareable for audit purposes.

Instead of cloning, consider:
- Arc<TradeRecord> for shared immutable access
- This aligns with financial audit requirements

See: m01-ownership (Trace Up section),
     domain-fintech (Audit Requirements)"
