name: cmake
description: CMake build configuration for C and C++ projects started from
the ctdd template. Use when adding modules or dependencies, or configuring
builds, coverage, and sanitizers.
---
# CMake Skill
This repository is a starter template, not an application whose sample
modules define required features. Its checked-in targets are C examples
using C23. When adding C++ targets, use `.cpp` sources and select the
project's C++ standard explicitly (for example, `cxx_std_23`). Unity can
be used by C++ tests. CMock is for C-compatible interfaces, not C++ class
mocking.
> Replace `<src>/` with the project source directory (e.g. `ctdd/`, `src/`).
> Replace `<module>` with the module name (e.g. `counter`, `timer`).
## Build Commands
| Action | Command |
| --------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| Configure | `cmake -S . -B build -G Ninja` |
| Build | `ninja -C build` |
| Run tests | `ninja -C build check` |
| Coverage | `cmake -S . -B build-cov -G Ninja -DENABLE_COVERAGE=ON` then `ninja -C build-cov coverage` |
| ASan | `cmake -S . -B build-asan -G Ninja -DENABLE_ASAN=ON` then `ninja -C build-asan` |
> ASan and coverage cannot be used together.
## Adding a Module
Modules live in `<src>/` as static libraries. The current example is C;
register C modules in `<src>/CMakeLists.txt`:
```cmake
add_library(<src>_<module> <module>.c)
target_include_directories(<src>_<module> PUBLIC "${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}")
target_compile_features(<src>_<module> PRIVATE c_std_23)
```
For a C++ module, use a `.cpp` source and select the standard used by the
derived project:
```cmake
add_library(<src>_<module> <module>.cpp)
target_include_directories(<src>_<module> PUBLIC "${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}")
target_compile_features(<src>_<module> PRIVATE cxx_std_23)
```
Replace `cxx_std_23` if the project uses a different C++ standard. Likewise,
choose `.c`/`c_std_23` or `.cpp`/`cxx_std_23` for the application's entry
point and test sources.
Link into `main` in the root `CMakeLists.txt`:
```cmake
target_link_libraries(main PRIVATE ... <src>_<module>)
```
## Adding a Dependency
Dependencies are fetched via custom `Find<name>.cmake` scripts in `deps/`.
`deps/` is on `CMAKE_MODULE_PATH` so `find_package()` resolves to these
scripts first.
### 1. Create `deps/Find<name>.cmake`
Pattern (follow `deps/FindUnity.cmake` or `deps/FindCMock.cmake`):
```cmake
if (DEFINED _FIND<NAME>_INCLUDED)
return()
endif()
set(_FIND<NAME>_INCLUDED TRUE)
set(<NAME>_VERSION "x.y.z")
message(STATUS "Fetching <name> ${<NAME>_VERSION}")
include(FetchContent)
FetchContent_Declare(
<name>
URL https://github.com/org/<name>/archive/refs/tags/v${<NAME>_VERSION}.zip
DOWNLOAD_EXTRACT_TIMESTAMP TRUE
)
FetchContent_MakeAvailable(<name>)
if (NOT TARGET <Name>::<Name>)
add_library(<Name>::<Name> ALIAS <name>)
endif()
set(<Name>_FOUND TRUE)
```
For libraries without CMakeLists.txt (like CMock), use
`FetchContent_Populate` and compile manually. See `FindCMock.cmake`
for the pattern.
### 2. Add `find_package(<Name> REQUIRED)` to `CMakeLists.txt`
Place it after `include(Platform)` and `include(Flags)`.
### 3. Link with `<Name>::<Name>`
In `<src>/CMakeLists.txt` or `tests/CMakeLists.txt` as needed:
```cmake
target_link_libraries(<src>_<module> PRIVATE <Name>::<Name>)
```
## Platform Flags
`deps/Platform.cmake` sets these variables for conditional logic:
| Variable | Meaning |
| ----------------- | ------------------------------------------------ |
| `IS_CLANG_OR_GCC` | Clang or GCC compiler |
| `IS_MSVC` | MSVC compiler |
| `IS_WINDOWS` | Windows target |
| `IS_LINUX` | Linux target |
| `IS_MACOS` | macOS target |
| `IS_IOS` | iOS target |
| `IS_ANDROID` | Android target |
| `IS_EMSCRIPTEN` | Emscripten/WASM target |
| `ARCH` | Normalized arch (`amd64`, `arm64`, `wasm`, etc.) |
| `IS_AMD64` | x86_64 |
| `IS_ARM64` | arm64/aarch64 |
## Compiler Flags
`deps/Flags.cmake` defines `BASE_OPTIONS` (warning flags) and
`BASE_DEFINITIONS`. Apply per-target to avoid polluting fetched
dependencies:
```cmake
target_compile_options(<target> PRIVATE ${BASE_OPTIONS})
target_compile_definitions(<target> PRIVATE ${BASE_DEFINITIONS})
```
## CMock Mock Generation
CMock generates mocks for C-compatible interfaces. Do not pass C++ class
headers to this helper; use a suitable fake or mocking tool for C++ APIs.
`tests/CMakeLists.txt` provides a `cmock_generate_mock` helper function:
```cmake
cmock_generate_mock(<target> "<absolute-path-to-header>")
```
With optional config file:
```cmake
cmock_generate_mock(<target> "<header>" "cmock_config.yml")
```
Generated mocks go into `build/mocks/` as `Mock<name>.h/.c`.
## Coverage
Enabled via `-DENABLE_COVERAGE=ON`. Requires GCC or Clang + `gcovr`.
Report at `build-cov/coverage/index.html`. Only `<src>/` sources are
measured; Unity, CMock, and mocks are excluded.
## Sanitizers
`deps/Sanitizers.cmake` provides AddressSanitizer via `-DENABLE_ASAN=ON`.
Incompatible with coverage.

description: Git workflow for the ctdd C/C++ starter template. Use when
committing template or example changes, creating release tags, or following
the branching and commit message conventions.
---
# Git Skill
This repository is a reusable starter template for C and C++ projects.
Treat its checked-in code as examples demonstrating the build and test
setup, not as a required application API. Template releases should keep
the starter structure and Unity/CMock workflows useful to derived projects.
## Commit Messages
Follow [Conventional Commits v1.0.0][cc] with the 50/72 rule.
[cc]: https://www.conventionalcommits.org/en/v1.0.0/
### Format
```
<type>[optional scope][!]: <subject>
<body>
[BREAKING CHANGE: <description>]
Co-authored-by: <Name> <email>
```
- Subject: max 50 characters; use imperative mood and no period.
- Wrap body lines at 72 characters. Keep the message concise.
- Separate the subject from the body with a blank line.
- Use Conventional Commit types such as `feat`, `fix`, `docs`, `chore`,
and `ci`; scopes are optional.
- Mark breaking changes with `!` and/or a `BREAKING CHANGE:` footer.
- No em dashes (`—`). Use a colon or rewrite the sentence.
Always include one `Co-authored-by:` trailer per contributing agent or
model, using `<Name> <email>`:
- Name: human-readable model name, e.g. `Qwen 3.8 27B`.
- Email local part: lowercase model identifier, replacing invalid
characters with dots. If the model is unknown, use the product name.
- Email domain: the service that ran the model, using its real domain.
For self-hosted services, use your own domain. Use
`<runtime>.local` only for local inference with no service domain.
Examples:
```
Co-authored-by: Qwen 3.8 27B <qwen3.8.q3_k_xl@lmstudio.local>
Co-authored-by: GPT-5.6 Luna <gpt5.6.luna@openrouter.ai>
Co-authored-by: Claude Sonnet 4.5 <claude.sonnet4.5@github.com>
```
The corporate commit-msg hook rejects these trailers, agent email
addresses, `.local` domains, and free-text descriptions. Skip the hook
with `--no-verify` when committing.
### Types
| Type | Use |
| ---------- | ---------------------------------- |
| `feat` | New feature or module |
| `fix` | Bug fix |
| `docs` | Documentation only |
| `chore` | Build, deps, config, housekeeping |
| `ci` | CI/CD changes |
| `refactor` | Code change without feature or fix |
| `test` | Adding or changing tests |
| `style` | Formatting, whitespace, semicolons |
### Examples
Good:
```
feat: add stopwatch timer
Replace Hello World with a live stopwatch that prints elapsed time
in HH:MM:SS.mmm format, updating every 10ms with color output.
Co-authored-by: GPT-5.6 Luna <gpt5.6.luna@openrouter.ai>
```
```
fix: clear Unity INTERFACE_SYSTEM_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES
CMake rejects the path inside the build tree on newer versions.
Co-authored-by: GPT-5.6 Luna <gpt5.6.luna@openrouter.ai>
```
```
chore: bump CMock to v2.6.0
Co-authored-by: GPT-5.6 Luna <gpt5.6.luna@openrouter.ai>
```
Bad:
```
added a new thing # no type, lowercase, vague
feat: add stopwatch # no body for a significant change
feat: add stopwatch timer. # trailing period
feat: add timer — it's fast # em dash not allowed
```
## Committing
Stage changes:
```sh
git add -A
```
Write the complete message, including co-author trailers, to a message
file, then commit while skipping the rejecting hook:
```sh
git commit --no-verify -F <message-file>
```
## Tagging
This project uses semantic versioning for template releases.
### Creating a tag
Create the tag:
```sh
git tag -a v0.1.0 -m "Release v0.1.0"
```
Push the tag:
```sh
git push origin v0.1.0
```
Tag messages follow the same rules as commit messages: no em dashes,
wrapped at 72 characters.
### Tag naming
| Version | Meaning |
| -------- | ------------------------------------ |
| `v0.x.0` | Minor changes, breaking template API |
| `v0.x.y` | Patch changes, backward-compatible |
| `v1.x.0` | Major release |
### When to tag
- After merging a feature branch that changes the template structure
- Before sharing the template with others
- When CMakeLists.txt, deps/, or build system changes could affect
projects using this template
### Listing tags
```sh
git tag -l
```
### Deleting a tag
Delete the local tag:
```sh
git tag -d v0.1.0
```
Remove the remote tag:
```sh
git push origin --delete v0.1.0
```
## Branching
For local development:
```sh
git checkout -b feat/add-counter
```
Branch naming:
| Prefix | Use |
| -------- | ------------- |
| `feat/` | New feature |
| `fix/` | Bug fix |
| `chore/` | Housekeeping |
| `docs/` | Documentation |
## Common Commands
| Command | Use |
| ----------------------- | --------------------------------- |
| `git log --oneline -10` | Recent history |
| `git diff --staged` | Check staged changes |
| `git status` | Current state |
| `git reset HEAD~1` | Undo last commit (keep changes) |
| `git rebase -i HEAD~3` | Interactive rebase last 3 commits |

name: tdd
description: Test-driven development with Unity and CMock for C and C++
projects started from the ctdd template. Use when adding modules, writing
tests, or following Red-Green-Refactor.
---
# TDD Skill
This repository is a starter template, and its checked-in examples are C.
Use these workflows as examples when building a C or C++ project from the
template; do not treat the sample modules as required product features.
Unity is used for both C and C++ tests. The CMock examples below apply to
C-compatible interfaces. CMock does not provide general mocking for C++
classes, so choose an appropriate fake or mocking tool for C++ APIs. When a
C++ test calls a C API, expose that API with C linkage.
> Replace `<src>/` with the project source directory (e.g. `ctdd/`, `src/`).
> Replace `<module>` with the module name (e.g. `counter`, `timer`).
## Quick Reference
| Action | Command |
| ----------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------- |
| Configure (default) | `cmake -S . -B build -G Ninja` |
| Configure (coverage) | `cmake -S . -B build-cov -G Ninja -DENABLE_COVERAGE=ON` |
| Build | `ninja -C build` |
| Run tests (full output) | `ninja -C build check` |
| Run tests (summary) | `ninja -C build test` |
| Run tests + coverage | `ninja -C build-cov coverage` |
## Red-Green-Refactor
Every change to `<src>/` follows this cycle:
1. **RED** : Write a failing test. Confirm it fails.
2. **GREEN** : Write the minimum code to pass. Confirm it passes.
3. **REFACTOR** : Clean up without changing behavior. Tests still pass.
Never skip the RED step. If the test passes immediately, you wrote the test
before the implementation was missing.
## Adding a New Module
### 1. Write the header
Create `<src>/<module>.h` with the public prototype(s).
C:
```c
#pragma once
#include <stddef.h>
int fn_name(int arg);
```
C++:
```cpp
#pragma once
#include <cstddef>
auto fn_name(int arg) -> int;
```
### 2. Write the test
Create `tests/test_<module>.c` for C or
`tests/test_<module>.cpp` for C++. Choose a state-based Unity test for pure
logic or an interaction-based test for a C dependency:
**State-based** (pure functions, no mocks):
```c
#include "unity.h"
#include "<src>/<module>.h"
void setUp(void) {}
void tearDown(void) {}
void test_fn_name_returns_expected(void) {
TEST_ASSERT_EQUAL_INT(42, fn_name(1));
}
int main(void) {
UNITY_BEGIN();
RUN_TEST(test_fn_name_returns_expected);
return UNITY_END();
}
```
A C++ state-based test uses a `.cpp` source and the same Unity assertions:
```cpp
#include "unity.h"
#include "<src>/<module>.h"
auto setUp() -> void {}
auto tearDown() -> void {}
auto test_fn_name_returns_expected() -> void {
TEST_ASSERT_EQUAL_INT(42, fn_name(1));
}
auto main() -> int {
UNITY_BEGIN();
RUN_TEST(test_fn_name_returns_expected);
return UNITY_END();
}
```
**Interaction-based** (mocking a C-compatible dependency with CMock):
```c
#include "unity.h"
#include "<src>/<module>.h"
#include "Mock<dep>.h"
void setUp(void) { Mock<dep>_Init(); }
void tearDown(void) { Mock<dep>_Verify(); Mock<dep>_Destroy(); }
void test_fn_calls_dep(void) {
dep_fn_ExpectAndReturn(arg, expected);
TEST_ASSERT_TRUE(fn_name());
}
int main(void) {
UNITY_BEGIN();
RUN_TEST(test_fn_calls_dep);
return UNITY_END();
}
```
### 3. Register the test in `tests/CMakeLists.txt`
Add after existing test targets, before the `check` target. Use the source
extension and compile feature for the test language. The current examples
are C:
**State-based (no mock):**
```cmake
add_executable(test_<module> test_<module>.c)
target_include_directories(test_<module> PRIVATE "${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}")
target_link_libraries(test_<module> PRIVATE <src>_<module> Unity::Unity)
target_compile_features(test_<module> PRIVATE c_std_23)
add_test(NAME test_<module> COMMAND test_<module>)
list(APPEND TEST_TARGETS test_<module>)
```
**Interaction-based (with mock):**
```cmake
add_executable(test_<module> test_<module>.c)
target_include_directories(test_<module> PRIVATE "${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}")
target_link_libraries(test_<module> PRIVATE <src>_<module> Unity::Unity CMock::CMock)
target_compile_features(test_<module> PRIVATE c_std_23)
cmock_generate_mock(test_<module> "${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/<src>/<dep>.h")
add_test(NAME test_<module> COMMAND test_<module>)
list(APPEND TEST_TARGETS test_<module>)
```
For a C++ Unity test, use a `.cpp` test source and select the C++ standard
for that target, for example:
```cmake
add_executable(test_<module> test_<module>.cpp)
target_include_directories(test_<module> PRIVATE "${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}")
target_link_libraries(test_<module> PRIVATE <src>_<module> Unity::Unity)
target_compile_features(test_<module> PRIVATE cxx_std_23)
add_test(NAME test_<module> COMMAND test_<module>)
list(APPEND TEST_TARGETS test_<module>)
```
Replace `cxx_std_23` with the standard chosen for the derived project.
### 4. Stub the implementation
For C, create `<src>/<module>.c` with a dummy return:
```c
#include "<src>/<module>.h"
int fn_name(int arg) {
return 0;
}
```
For C++, create `<src>/<module>.cpp`:
```cpp
#include "<src>/<module>.h"
auto fn_name(int arg) -> int {
return 0;
}
```
Register a C library in `<src>/CMakeLists.txt`:
```cmake
add_library(<src>_<module> <module>.c)
target_include_directories(<src>_<module> PUBLIC "${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}")
target_compile_features(<src>_<module> PRIVATE c_std_23)
```
For C++, use the `.cpp` source and the standard selected for the project:
```cmake
add_library(<src>_<module> <module>.cpp)
target_include_directories(<src>_<module> PUBLIC "${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}")
target_compile_features(<src>_<module> PRIVATE cxx_std_23)
```
### 5. Confirm RED
```sh
ninja -C build check
```
The test must fail. If it does not, something is wrong.
### 6. Implement and confirm GREEN
Write the real implementation. Run tests again:
```sh
ninja -C build check
```
All tests must pass.
## CMock Patterns
### Expecting a call with arguments
```c
dep_fn_Expect(arg1, arg2);
```
### Expecting a call and returning a value
```c
dep_fn_ExpectAndReturn(arg, expected_value);
```
### Verifying a call was NOT made
Do not set any `_Expect`. If the function is called, CMock fails
automatically in `tearDown`.
### Multiple calls
```c
dep_fn_ExpectAndReturn(first_call_arg, first_return);
dep_fn_ExpectAndReturn(second_call_arg, second_return);
```
Calls are matched in order.
## Test Naming
- `test_<function>_<scenario>`
- Use present tense: `test_upper_converts_lowercase`
- Cover: happy path, edge cases, boundaries, and error conditions
## Unity Assertions
| Assertion | Use |
| -------------------------------- | ---------------- |
| `TEST_ASSERT_TRUE(x)` | Boolean true |
| `TEST_ASSERT_FALSE(x)` | Boolean false |
| `TEST_ASSERT_EQUAL_INT(a, b)` | Integer equality |
| `TEST_ASSERT_EQUAL_STRING(a, b)` | String equality |
| `TEST_ASSERT_NULL(p)` | Null pointer |
| `TEST_ASSERT_NOT_NULL(p)` | Non-null pointer |
## Coverage
To check coverage after tests:
```sh
ninja -C build-cov coverage
```
Open `build-cov/coverage/index.html` in a browser.
