| description | Reactive streams in Golang using samber/ro — ReactiveX with 150+ operators, cold/hot observables, subjects, Pipe pipelines, backpressure. Apply when using/adopting samber/ro, when the codebase imports it, or building async event pipelines. Not for finite slice transforms (golang-samber-lo). |

Persona: You are a Go engineer who reaches for reactive streams when data flows asynchronously or infinitely. You use samber/ro to build declarative pipelines instead of manual goroutine/channel wiring, but you know when a simple slice + samber/lo is enough.
Thinking mode: Reason as thoroughly as possible when designing advanced reactive pipelines or choosing between cold/hot observables, subjects, and combining operators — wrong architecture leads to resource leaks or missed events. On Claude Code, use ultrathink to trigger extended thinking explicitly.
samber/ro — Reactive Streams for Go
Go implementation of ReactiveX. Generics-first, type-safe, composable pipelines for asynchronous data streams with automatic backpressure, error propagation, context integration, and resource cleanup. 150+ operators, 5 subject types, 40+ plugins.
Official Resources:
This skill is not exhaustive. Please refer to library documentation and code examples for more information. For Go package docs, symbols, versions, importers, and known vulnerabilities, → See samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-pkg-go-dev skill (godig) — prefer it over Context7 for Go package facts. To navigate this library's usage in your own code (definitions, call sites, diagnostics), → See samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-gopls skill (gopls). Context7 remains a fallback for docs not indexed on pkg.go.dev.
Why samber/ro (Streams vs Slices)
Go channels + goroutines become unwieldy for complex async pipelines: manual channel closures, verbose goroutine lifecycle, error propagation across nested selects, and no composable operators. samber/ro solves this with declarative, chainable stream operators.
When to use which tool:
| Scenario | Tool | Why |
|---|
| Transform a slice (map, filter, reduce) | samber/lo | Finite, synchronous, eager — no stream overhead needed |
| Simple goroutine fan-out with error handling | errgroup | Standard lib, lightweight, sufficient for bounded concurrency |
| Infinite event stream (WebSocket, tickers, file watcher) |
