TL;DR
This skill provides a comprehensive playbook for Solana developers, covering the full lifecycle from writing Anchor or Pinocchio programs to deploying React-based frontends. It emphasizes modern standards like transaction v1 and the @solana/kit ecosystem to ensure applications are scalable and compatible with current network specifications.
Beyond basic implementation, the skill offers deep guidance on program architecture, including state layout and compute unit optimization. It also integrates rigorous security practices through fuzzing and testing with tools like Surfpool, LiteSVM, and Mollusk.
