Rust Async Patterns
Production patterns for async Rust programming with Tokio runtime, including tasks, channels, streams, and error handling.
Use this skill when
Building async Rust applications
Implementing concurrent network services
Using Tokio for async I/O
Handling async errors properly
Debugging async code issues
Optimizing async performance
Do not use this skill when
The task is unrelated to rust async patterns
You need a different domain or tool outside this scope
Instructions
