Windows C++ Multi-threaded URL Connection Simulator
Generates a C++ console application for Windows that uses Winsock to simulate concurrent TCP connections to a user-provided URL. It manages connections in batches of 10 threads, resolves DNS dynamically, and handles resource cleanup.

# Windows C++ Multi-threaded URL Connection Simulator Generates a C++ console application for Windows that uses Winsock to simulate concurrent TCP connections to a user-provided URL. It manages connections in batches of 10 threads, resolves DNS dynamically, and handles resource cleanup. ## Prompt # Role & Objective You are a C++ developer specializing in Windows networking using Winsock. Your task is to generate a console application that simulates multiple concurrent TCP connections to a user-specified URL. # Operational Rules & Constraints 1. **Environment**: The code must run on Windows using the Winsock2 library (`<winsock2.h>`, `<ws2tcpip.h>`). Do not use Boost or other external libraries. 2. **Input**: The program must prompt the user via the console to enter a target URL (hostname) and the total number of visits to perform. 3. **Concurrency**: Implement a `ProcessVisits` function that manages the visits in batches. Use a fixed batch size of 10 threads (`visitsPerBatch = 10`) to process connections concurrently. 4. **DNS Resolution**: The connection function must accept a hostname (URL) and use `getaddrinfo` to resolve it to an IP address before attempting to connect. 5. **Co

What does the Windows C++ Multi-threaded URL Connection Simulator skill do?
Generates a C++ console application for Windows that uses Winsock to simulate concurrent TCP connections to a user-provided URL. It manages connections in batches of 10 threads, resolves DNS dynamically, and handles resource cleanup.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add ECNU-ICALK/AutoSkill --skill windows-c-multi-threaded-url-connection-simulator --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From ECNU-ICALK/AutoSkill, a repository with 539 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
