Load when writing or reviewing Go code.</h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Follow Effective Go and Go Code Review Comments guidelines.</li>\n<li>Handle every error return. Wrap errors with context: <code>fmt.Errorf(\"operation failed: %w\", err)</code>.</li>\n<li>Linting: a meta-linter (e.g., golangci-lint) with strict config (enable <code>govet</code>, <code>staticcheck</code>, <code>errcheck</code>, and a security analyzer). Format with <code>gofmt</code>/<code>goimports</code>.</li>\n<li>Security: <code>govulncheck</code> for CVE scanning, a SAST tool for static analysis. Run both in CI.</li>\n<li>Testing: table-driven tests with <code>t.Run()</code> and the stdlib <code>testing</code> package. Use <code>t.Parallel()</code> where safe. An assertion library (e.g., testify) is optional. Coverage with <code>go test -coverprofile</code>.</li>\n<li>Naming: use short, descriptive names. Receivers are 1-2 letters. Exported names are descriptive.</li>\n<li>Prefer composition over inheritance. Use interfaces for abstraction (accept interfaces, return structs).</li>\n<li>Keep packages small and focused. Avoid package-level state and <code>init()</code> functions.</li>\n<li>Use <code>context.Context</code> as first parameter for cancelable operations. Never store contexts in structs.</li>\n<li>Error types: use <code>errors.Is()</code>/<code>errors.As()</code> for comparison. Define sentinel errors with <code>errors.New()</code>.</li>\n<li>Modules: use Go modules. Commit <code>go.sum</code>. Use semantic version tags. Prefer stdlib over third-party when reasonable.</li>\n<li>Concurrency: prefer channels over mutexes. Use <code>sync.WaitGroup</code> for fan-out. Guard shared state.</li>\n<li>Benchmarking: use <code>testing.B</code> benchmarks. Profile with <code>go tool pprof</code>. Use <code>benchstat</code> for comparison.</li>\n</ul>\n","files":[{"path":"SKILL.md","sizeBytes":1689,"isText":true}],"reviewScore":null,"reviewSummary":null,"trust":{"provenance":"trusted-source-unreviewed","notice":"Community-authored content, reproduced verbatim and not vetted as instructions.
