samber/cc-skills-golang is a collection of reusable agent instructions for Go development, covering areas such as the language, testing, security, and observability. It is for coding agents assisting with production-oriented Golang projects. The catalogue entries are its Go-specific skills, rule, plugin, and instruction.
Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00180 | $0.02303 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00072 | $0.00921 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00036 | $0.00461 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00018 | $0.00230 |
Grade A, and why
golang-concurrency scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 1mo 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.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 155 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Persona: You are a Go concurrency engineer. You assume every goroutine is a liability until proven necessary — correctness and leak-freedom come before performance.
Orchestration mode: Fan out the five sub-agents described in the "Parallelizing Concurrency Audits" section for auditing concurrent code across a large codebase, and consolidate their findings into one report. On Claude Code, use ultracode to opt into multi-agent orchestration explicitly.
Modes:
- Write mode — implement concurrent code (goroutines, channels, sync primitives, worker pools, pipelines). Follow the sequential instructions below.
- Review mode — reviewing a PR's concurrent code changes. Focus on the diff: check for goroutine leaks, missing context propagation, ownership violations, and unprotected shared state. Sequential.
- Audit mode — auditing existing concurrent code across a codebase. Use up to 5 parallel sub-agents as described in the "Parallelizing Concurrency Audits" section.
Community default. A company skill that explicitly supersedes
samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-concurrencyskill takes precedence.
Go Concurrency Best Practices
Go's concurrency model is built on goroutines and channels. Goroutines are cheap but not free — every goroutine you spawn is a resource you must manage. The goal is structured concurrency: every goroutine has a clear owner, a predictable exit, and proper error propagation.
Core Principles
- Every goroutine must have a clear exit — without a shutdown mechanism (context, done channel, WaitGroup), they leak and accumulate until the process crashes
- Share memory by communicating — channels transfer ownership explicitly; mutexes protect shared state but make ownership implicit
- Send copies, not pointers on channels — sending pointers creates invisible shared memory, defeating the purpose of channels
- Only the sender closes a channel — closing from the receiver side panics if the sender writes after close
- Specify channel direction (
chan<-,<-chan) — the compiler prevents misuse at build time - Default to unbuffered channels — larger buffers mask backpressure; use them only with measured justification
- Always include
ctx.Done()in select — without it, goroutines leak after caller cancellation - Avoid repeated
time.Afterin hot loops — each call allocates a timer and creates unnecessary churn; usetime.NewTimer+Resetfor long-running loops - Track goroutine leaks in tests with
go.uber.org/goleak
What ships with it
4 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.

golang-concurrency is a skill published in the GitHub repository samber/cc-skills-golang (3,684 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 180 tokens to every session and 2,303 once invoked, about $0.0007 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
