Individual skill

zig-compiler

Use when invoking zig directly: build-exe, build-lib, optimize modes, zig cc as a C compiler, emit flags, ast-check, fmt, or a Zig compile error. Not for build.zig projects: use zig-build-system.

# Zig compiler

## Contract

| Field | Bound contract |
|---|---|
| Trigger | The user compiles a Zig file from the command line, asks which optimize mode to use, wants `zig cc` as a C or C++ compiler, needs assembly or LLVM IR from Zig, or shows a Zig compile error. |
| Authority | Read-only. The skill emits commands and readings to chat; the user runs them. Rollback is not needed. No remote mutation. |
| Side effect | Chat output; scratch compiles write into a scratch directory. |
| Done | The command for the request is reported, every flag in it is confirmed against `zig build-exe --help` on the installed Zig, and each error message in the request has a reading and fix. |

## Inputs

- Zig version from `zig version`: required. Everything below was run on Zig 0.14.1; flag spellings change between releases.
