Overview

Advanced Lua programming skills for embedded scripting and game development

Skills

This plugin provides the following skills:

  • Lua C Integration
  • Lua Coroutines
  • Lua Tables Patterns

Usage

Once enabled, Claude will automatically apply these skills when working with relevant code. The plugin provides context and expertise that Claude uses to:

  • Write idiomatic code following best practices
  • Suggest appropriate patterns and architectures
  • Catch common mistakes and anti-patterns
  • Provide framework-specific guidance

Skills

📖

Lua C Integration

Use when lua C API for extending Lua with native code including stack operations, calling C from Lua, calling Lua from C, creating C modules, userdata types, metatables in C, and performance optimization techniques.

📖

Lua Coroutines

Use when lua coroutines for cooperative multitasking including coroutine creation, yielding and resuming, passing values, generators, iterators, asynchronous patterns, state machines, and producer-consumer implementations.

📖

Lua Tables Patterns

Use when lua tables as the universal data structure including arrays, dictionaries, objects, metatables, object-oriented patterns, data structures, and advanced table manipulation for building flexible, efficient Lua applications.

Hooks

🔧

PostToolUse

Runs immediately after a tool completes successfully. Can validate outputs, log results, or trigger follow-up actions based on tool execution.

han hook run lua format --async
🛑

Stop

Runs when the main Claude Code agent has finished responding. Can verify task completion, check quality gates, or ensure documentation requirements are met before the session ends.

han hook run lua format --async
han hook run lua lint --async
🛑

SubagentStop

Runs when a Claude Code subagent (Agent tool call) has finished responding. Can validate subagent outputs, enforce quality standards, or trigger additional workflows after delegated tasks complete.

han hook run lua format --async
han hook run lua lint --async
