subsystem-summary-of-protocol-curr

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides a concise and token-efficient summary of the protocol-curr subsystem, which defines the canonical XDR (External Data Representation) type definitions for the current Stellar protocol version. It helps users quickly grasp the structure and purpose of these critical data definitions.

Core Features & Use Cases

• XDR Type Definitions: Explains the purpose and organization of XDR files (.x) and their auto-generated C++ headers (.h).
• File Organization: Details the dependency graph of XDR files, from foundational types to ledger entries, transactions, and network messages.
• Module Summaries: Provides overviews of key XDR files like Stellar-types.x, Stellar-SCP.x, Stellar-contract.x, Stellar-ledger-entries.x, and Stellar-transaction.x.
• Use Case: A developer new to Stellar Core needs to understand how transaction data is structured on the wire. They can use this Skill to get a high-level overview of Stellar-transaction.x and related files without reading thousands of lines of XDR code.
