Lightning Talk: find-move-candidates in Cpp
summary
A clang-based tool built on clang meta tool and lib tooling scans a compilation database and flags or inserts std::move suggestions where the last use of a variable is a copy, reducing unnecessary copies. It applies fixes when it proves safety: last use dominates and the type is safe to move (trivially destructible or composed of safe containers/optionals), and it avoids risky types (e.g., moving a shared_ptr to a unique_lock that would release a mutex).
