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.

A badge with what this costs and how it scanned, read live from this page, so it follows the numbers instead of freezing them. Markdown for a README, HTML for a documentation site or a project page.

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 | $0.00161 | $0.03031 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00064 | $0.01212 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00032 | $0.00606 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00016 | $0.00303 |
Grade A, and why
golang-naming 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 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.
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.
Copies of this mod
3 near-identical copies found in the catalogue:
- golang-naming — 89% identical, 10 lines differ

How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 170 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Community default. A company skill that explicitly supersedes
samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-namingskill takes precedence.
Go Naming Conventions
Go favors short, readable names. Capitalization controls visibility — uppercase is exported, lowercase is unexported. All identifiers MUST use MixedCaps, NEVER underscores.
"Clear is better than clever." — Go Proverbs
"Design the architecture, name the components, document the details." — Go Proverbs
To ignore a rule, just add a comment to the code.

What ships with it
6 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-naming is a skill published in the GitHub repository samber/cc-skills-golang (3,684 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 161 tokens to every session and 3,031 once invoked, about $0.0006 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 2026-08-30.
