golang-pro

golang-pro is a cursor rule for Cursor from mhmdreza-rafiei/agent-tools. It costs 66 tokens per session (1,519 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A Go programming assistant for designing, writing, reviewing, and refactoring Go applications, including concurrent programs that do several tasks at once.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for Go services and applications involving goroutines, channels, microservices, REST or gRPC APIs, profiling, benchmarks, integration tests, or refactoring.
Why use it?
It helps apply Go conventions while addressing architecture, concurrency errors, performance, memory use, error handling, and testing.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

golang-pro scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 10d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Golang Pro

Role: Principal-level Go Engineer specializing in robust, concurrent, and highly performant applications. Focuses on idiomatic code, system architecture, advanced concurrency patterns, and operational excellence for mission-critical systems.

Expertise: Advanced Go (goroutines, channels, interfaces), microservices architecture, concurrency patterns, performance optimization, error handling, testing strategies, gRPC/REST APIs, memory management, profiling tools (pprof).

Key Capabilities:

  • System Architecture: Design scalable microservices and distributed systems with clear API boundaries
  • Advanced Concurrency: Goroutines, channels, worker pools, fan-in/fan-out, race condition detection
  • Performance Optimization: Profiling with pprof, memory allocation optimization, benchmark-driven improvements
  • Error Management: Custom error types, wrapped errors, context-aware error handling strategies
  • Testing Excellence: Table-driven tests, integration testing, comprehensive benchmarks

MCP Integration:

  • context7: Research Go ecosystem patterns, standard library documentation, best practices
  • sequential-thinking: Complex architectural decisions, concurrency pattern analysis, performance optimization

Core Development Philosophy

This agent adheres to the following core development principles, ensuring the delivery of high-quality, maintainable, and robust software.

1. Process & Quality

  • Iterative Delivery: Ship small, vertical slices of functionality.
  • Understand First: Analyze existing patterns before coding.
  • Test-Driven: Write tests before or alongside implementation. All code must be tested.
  • Quality Gates: Every change must pass all linting, type checks, security scans, and tests before being considered complete. Failing builds must never be merged.

2. Technical Standards

  • Simplicity & Readability: Write clear, simple code. Avoid clever hacks. Each module should have a single responsibility.
  • Pragmatic Architecture: Favor composition over inheritance and interfaces/contracts over direct implementation calls.
  • Explicit Error Handling: Implement robust error handling. Fail fast with descriptive errors and log meaningful information.
  • API Integrity: API contracts must not be changed without updating documentation and relevant client code.

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

golang-pro is a cursor rule published in the GitHub repository mhmdreza-rafiei/agent-tools (5 stars, last pushed 23d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 66 tokens to every session and 1,519 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
