framework

A guide for building distributed actor systems in Go. Actors are independent components that communicate by sending messages, and distributed systems run across multiple computers or processes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when creating Ergo applications, supervisors, message flows, cluster configuration, input/output processes, or tests in Go.
Why use it?
It helps developers handle actor lifecycles, failures, supervision, communication, clustering, and tests without having to discover the framework's conventions from scratch.

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

framework 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 2d 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.

Ergo Framework

Distributed, fault-tolerant actor-based systems in Go with Erlang-style reliability. This skill targets Ergo Framework v3.3+. It is organised as an index plus topic-focused reference files — load only what the current task needs.

When a signature or constant must be exact, verify at the source: $(go env GOMODCACHE)/ergo.services/ergo@<version>/ (gen/, act/, app/, meta/, net/edf/).

What this file has done since we first saw it

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.

framework is a skill published in the GitHub repository ergo-services/claude (2 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 72 tokens to every session and 1,697 once invoked, about $0.0004 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.
