Structured error handling in Golang with samber/oops — error builders, stack traces, error codes, error context, error wrapping, error attributes, user-facing vs developer messages, panic recovery, and logger integration. Apply when using or adopting samber/oops, or when the codebase already imports…
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.

Comprehensive guide to stretchr/testify for Golang testing. Covers assert, require, mock, and suite packages in depth. Use when writing tests with testify, creating mocks, setting up test suites, or choosing between assert and require. Covers testify assertions, mock expectations, argument matchers, call verification…
Golang struct and interface design patterns — composition, embedding, type assertions, type switches, interface segregation, dependency injection via interfaces, struct field tags, and pointer vs value receivers. Use this skill when designing Go types, defining or implementing interfaces, embedding structs or…
Production-ready Golang tests — table-driven tests, testify suites and mocks, parallel tests, fuzzing, fixtures, goroutine leak detection with goleak, snapshot testing, code coverage, integration tests, idiomatic test naming. Use when writing or reviewing Go tests, choosing a testing approach, setting up Go test CI…
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…
Implements dependency injection in Golang using uber-go/dig — reflection-based container, Provide/Invoke, dig.In/dig.Out parameter and result objects, named values, value groups, optional dependencies, scopes, and Decorate. Apply when using or adopting uber-go/dig, when the codebase imports go.uber.org/dig, or when…
