Rust Crate Publishing Readiness

Use this skill before publishing or sharing a Rust crate. It focuses on the consumer-facing package, not on deployment of a running service.

Core Workflow

  1. Verify package metadata, license, README, repository, and categories.
  2. Check public API, feature flags, examples, and docs from a consumer's view.
  3. Run tests, docs, formatting, and feature-matrix checks.
  4. Run cargo package or cargo publish --dry-run.
  5. Inspect packaged contents for missing files and accidental secrets.
  6. Publish only from a clean, tagged, intentional release state.

Source Notes

Guidance is transformed and paraphrased from Herbert Wolverson, Advanced Hands-On Rust, especially Chapter 15 on sharing libraries and the earlier chapters on tests, docs, benchmarks, and features. Examples are original skeletons.
