Rust Architecture & Memory Safety Protocol

Author high-performance, memory-safe software with zero-cost abstractions.

1. Ownership & Borrowing

1. Prefer borrowing (&T, &mut T) over cloning (.clone()) unless transfer of ownership is explicitly required.
2. Structure data to avoid cyclic references that require Rc<RefCell<T>>.

2. Idiomatic Error Handling

Use Result<T, E> with the ? operator. Create custom error enums with thiserror for internal crates.
