Description
Solana development is an agent skill for end-to-end work on Solana, covering the full dApp stack. It handles React and Next.js interfaces with wallet connection, transaction building, signing and confirmation, and it treats transaction v1 as the default format for new code. On the on-chain side it covers Anchor and Pinocchio programs, state layout, program-derived address seed conventions, vault design and typed client generation with Codama. It also covers local testing with Surfpool, LiteSVM and Mollusk, fuzz testing with Trident and cargo-fuzz, security hardening and audit-style reviews, Token-2022 confidential transfers, and toolchain problems such as version mismatches, GLIBC errors and dependency conflicts. Upgrades between Anchor and Solana CLI versions and migrations from web3.js v1 to web3.js v3 or Kit are included too. The skill states its own opinionated default stack, built around framework-kit and @solana/kit. It is listed on skills.sh and published by the Solana Foundation.…
