Solana Development Skill Hub

Routes to the right skill file based on the task. Read the relevant section, follow the link, load that skill.

Core Solana Development

Primary entry point — read first for any Solana program, frontend, testing, or client task:

• ext/solana-dev/skill/SKILL.md — Solana Foundation skill (framework-kit-first, Kit types, wallet-standard)

Key references within:

• programs/anchor.md — Anchor patterns, IDL, constraints (canonical)
• programs/pinocchio.md — Zero-copy, CU optimization (canonical)
• frontend-framework-kit.md — React hooks, wallet connection, @solana/kit UI
• kit-web3-interop.md — Kit ↔ web3.js boundary patterns
• testing.md — LiteSVM, Mollusk, Surfpool, CI
• security.md — Vulnerability categories, checklists
• idl-codegen.md — Codama/Shank client generation
• payments.md — Commerce Kit, Kora, Solana Pay
• resources.md — Official documentation links

Token Extensions

• token-2022.md — SPL Token-2022 extensions: transfer hooks, confidential transfers, transfer fees, metadata, CPI guard, soulbound tokens, and all extension types with Anchor/native patterns
