📖 Introduction
Zig Skills is a curated collection of Agent Skills for AI coding agents focused on the Zig programming language and its ecosystem, part of the Full Stack Skills ecosystem maintained by PartMe.AI.
This package includes 15 skills organized into five layers: Core Language, Project Engineering, Java Migration, Domain Specialized, and Quality & Style. Each skill is a self-contained package that AI agents load on demand.

🧭 Relationship & Migration
skills/zig-0.16/ is the preferred main skill for current Zig work because it:
- Updates guidance to Zig 0.16.0 (the latest stable release)
- Keeps the same aggregate-skill shape the repository originally used
- Adds strong official source mapping (language reference, std index, introduction)
- Maintains a complete offline
references/set and localexamples/so the skill works without live fetching
skills/zig-0.15/ is retained as a previous-generation aggregate skill (Zig 0.15.x) and as the source of the local reference corpus. It remains useful for compatibility with older codebases and as supplemental reference material.
The zig-java-migration and zig-java-migration-testing pair applies the same lossless source-contract and complete differential rules as the Rust migration pair while loading Zig-specific language, build, testing, allocator, target, and review skills. This naming profile is also reserved for future kotlin-java-* and swift-java-* pairs in their own target-language packages.
The zig-code-review, zig-tiger-style, zig-project-structure, and zig-build-system skills cover project quality and engineering; zig-http, zig-crypto, zig-json, zig-concurrency, and zig-testing are domain-specific standard library deep-dives; while zig-raylib and zig-sdl3-bindings cover the leading Zig graphics/game development ecosystem libraries.
