Go Development

Read these reference files before proceeding:

• references/style.md - Go code style guidelines
• references/idioms.md - Go conventions and best practices
• references/concurrency.md - Go thread safety and race conditions
• references/testing.md - Go test practices (table-driven, subtests)
• references/tooling.md - Go commands (go test, golangci-lint, etc.)
• references/organization.md - Go code structure and package design
• references/performance.md - Go optimization and profiling

Also reference:

• ~/.config/agent/domain/coding/safety.md - Runtime and security safety
• ~/.config/agent/domain/testing/unit.md - Unit test strategies

Instructions

Apply all guidance from the reference files listed above when working with Go code. This skill covers:

• Code style: Follow Uber Go Style Guide, proper naming, imports, line length
• Idioms: Leverage Go conventions, zero values, error handling patterns
• Concurrency: Thread safety, mutex usage, race conditions
• Testing: Table-driven tests, subtests, testify/mock usage
• Tooling: go test, golangci-lint, gofumpt, golines commands
• Organization: Package structure, declaration ordering
• Performance: Memory efficiency, allocation reduction, profiling

All guidance from AGENT.md also applies (task tracking, problem-solving framework, code review priorities).
