go-development is a skill for Claude Code from ProjAnvil/MindForge. It costs 60 tokens per session (2,145 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for developing software in Go, a compiled programming language often used for servers and command-line tools. It focuses on Fiber web services, Cobra command-line programs, GORM database access, clean architecture, and concurrent code.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to build REST APIs, command-line tools, database-backed services, and Go programs using goroutines and channels.
Why use it?
It helps organize Go applications and handle web requests, databases, errors, tests, and concurrent work consistently.

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

go-development 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 6d 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.

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.

go-development is a skill published in the GitHub repository ProjAnvil/MindForge (3 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 60 tokens to every session and 2,145 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. 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.
