Comprehensive documentation guide for Golang projects, covering godoc comments, README, CONTRIBUTING, CHANGELOG, Go Playground, Example tests, API docs, and llms.txt. Use when writing or reviewing doc comments, documentation, adding code examples, setting up doc sites, or discussing documentation best practices. Triggers for both libraries and applications/CLIs.
Security best practices and vulnerability prevention for Golang. Covers injection (SQL, command, XSS), cryptography, filesystem safety, network security, cookies, secrets management, memory safety, and logging. Apply when writing, reviewing, or auditing Go code for security, or when working on any risky code involving crypto, I/O, secrets management, user input handling, or authentication. Includes configuration of security tools.
Troubleshoot Golang programs systematically - find and fix the root cause. Use when encountering bugs, crashes, deadlocks, or unexpected behavior in Go code. Covers debugging methodology, common Go pitfalls, test-driven debugging, pprof setup and capture, Delve debugger, race detection, GODEBUG tracing, and production debugging. Start here for any 'something is wrong' situation. Not for interpreting profiles or benchmarking (see golang-benchmark skill) or applying optimization patterns (see golang-performance skill).
Provides a comprehensive guide for writing production-ready Golang tests. Covers table-driven tests, test suites with testify, mocks, unit tests, integration tests, benchmarks, code coverage, parallel tests, fuzzing, fixtures, goroutine leak detection with goleak, snapshot testing, memory leaks, CI with GitHub Actions, and idiomatic naming conventions. Use this whenever writing tests, asking about testing patterns or setting up CI for Go projects. Essential for ANY test-related conversation in Go.
Implements dependency injection in Golang using samber/do. Apply this skill when working with dependency injection, setting up service containers, managing service lifecycles, or when you see code using github.com/samber/do/v2. Also use when refactoring manual dependency injection, implementing health checks, graceful shutdown, or organizing services into scopes/modules.
Provides CI/CD pipeline configuration using GitHub Actions for Golang projects. Covers testing, linting, SAST, security scanning, code coverage, Dependabot, Renovate, GoReleaser, code review automation, and release pipelines. Use this whenever setting up CI for a Go project, configuring workflows, adding linters or security scanners, setting up Dependabot or Renovate, automating releases, or improving an existing CI pipeline. Also use when the user wants to add quality gates to their Go project.
In-memory caching in Golang using samber/hot — eviction algorithms (LRU, LFU, TinyLFU, W-TinyLFU, S3FIFO, ARC, TwoQueue, SIEVE, FIFO), TTL, cache loaders, sharding, stale-while-revalidate, missing key caching, and Prometheus metrics. Apply when using or adopting samber/hot, when the codebase imports github.com/samber/hot, or when the project repeatedly loads the same medium-to-low cardinality resources at high frequency and needs to reduce latency or backend pressure.
Comprehensive guide for dependency injection (DI) in Golang. Covers why DI matters (testability, loose coupling, separation of concerns, lifecycle management), manual constructor injection, and DI library comparison (google/wire, uber-go/dig, uber-go/fx, samber/do). Use this skill when designing service architecture, setting up dependency injection, refactoring tightly coupled code, managing singletons or service factories, or when the user asks about inversion of control, service containers, or wiring dependencies in Go.
Provides linting best practices and golangci-lint configuration for Go projects. Covers running linters, configuring .golangci.yml, suppressing warnings with nolint directives, interpreting lint output, and managing linter settings. Use this skill whenever the user runs linters, configures golangci-lint, asks about lint warnings or suppressions, sets up code quality tooling, or asks which linters to enable for a Go project. Also use when the user mentions golangci-lint, go vet, staticcheck, revive, or any Go linting tool.
Reactive streams and event-driven programming in Golang using samber/ro — ReactiveX implementation with 150+ type-safe operators, cold/hot observables, 5 subject types (Publish, Behavior, Replay, Async, Unicast), declarative pipelines via Pipe, 40+ plugins (HTTP, cron, fsnotify, JSON, logging), automatic backpressure, error propagation, and Go context integration. Apply when using or adopting samber/ro, when the codebase imports github.com/samber/ro, or when building asynchronous event-driven pipelines, real-time data processing, streams, or reactive architectures in Go. Not for finite slice transforms (-> See golang-samber-lo skill).
Golang performance optimization patterns and methodology - if X bottleneck, then apply Y. Covers allocation reduction, CPU efficiency, memory layout, GC tuning, pooling, caching, and hot-path optimization. Use when profiling or benchmarks have identified a bottleneck and you need the right optimization pattern to fix it. Also use when performing performance code review to suggest improvements or benchmarks that could help identify quick performance gains. Not for measurement methodology (see golang-benchmark skill) or debugging workflow (see golang-troubleshooting skill).
Golang code style, formatting and conventions. Use when writing code, reviewing style, configuring linters, writing comments, or establishing project standards.
