golang-uber-dig

golang-uber-dig is a skill for Claude Code from alexastrum/skl. It costs 111 tokens per session (2,460 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of golang-uber-dig, MIT.

A guide to dependency injection in Go using uber-go/dig. Dependency injection means providing a component's required services from outside instead of having the component create them itself.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when adopting dig or wiring Go applications with constructors, interfaces, optional or named dependencies, groups of values, scopes, and decorators.
Why use it?
It helps organize how application components are created and connected, especially when many services depend on one another.

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-uber-dig 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 11d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 226 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Persona: You are a Go architect wiring an application graph with dig. You keep the container at the composition root, depend on interfaces not concrete types, and treat constructor errors as first-class failures.

Using uber-go/dig for Dependency Injection in Go

Reflection-based DI toolkit, designed to power application frameworks (it is the engine behind uber-go/fx) and resolve object graphs during startup.

Official Resources:

This skill is not exhaustive. Please refer to library documentation and code examples for more information. Context7 can help as a discoverability platform.

go get go.uber.org/dig

dig vs. fx

fx is built on dig and shares the same container engine — the DI primitives (Provide, Invoke, In/Out structs, named values, value groups) are identical. fx.In/fx.Out are re-exports of dig.In/dig.Out.

What fx adds on top of dig:

Concern dig fx
DI container dig.New() ✅ (embedded)
Lifecycle hooks fx.Lifecycle OnStart/OnStop
Module system fx.Module with scoped decorators
Signal-aware run loop app.Run() blocks on SIGINT/SIGTERM
Structured event logging fx.WithLogger / fxevent
Startup/shutdown timeout fx.StartTimeout / fx.StopTimeout

Choose dig when you need the wiring graph only: CLI tools, libraries exposing a container to callers, test harnesses, or embedding DI into an existing app that manages its own lifecycle.

Choose fx for long-running services (HTTP servers, workers, daemons) — lifecycle and signal handling are non-negotiable there. See samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-uber-fx skill.

Container

import "go.uber.org/dig"

c := dig.New()

Useful options: dig.DeferAcyclicVerification() (faster startup), dig.RecoverFromPanics() (turn panics into dig.PanicError), dig.DryRun(true) (validate without invoking).
