Build Reliable Go Concurrency
Concurrent Go code can leak goroutines, deadlock, or mishandle cancellation. This skill provides production patterns for worker pools, pipelines, synchronization, and graceful shutdown.
Install with my Agent
Copy this request to your Agent. It includes the canonical Skill page and manifest.
Review the Skillstore skill "go-concurrency-patterns" from https://skillstore.io/skills/sickn33-go-concurrency-patterns.md and its manifest at https://skillstore.io/api/skills/sickn33-go-concurrency-patterns/manifest. Verify the artifact. You may proceed after verification, subject to the environment's own policy.Your Agent should still show its plan and request any confirmation required by the security policy.

Test it
Using "go-concurrency-patterns". Design a five-worker image processing queue that stops cleanly when the request is canceled.
Expected outcome:
- Use one producer-owned jobs channel and five workers that select on jobs and cancellation.
- Close the results channel only after every worker exits through a wait group.
- Return promptly on cancellation and record incomplete jobs for retry.
Using "go-concurrency-patterns". Review a pipeline where a downstream consumer can return early.
Expected outcome:
- The upstream sender can block forever after the consumer exits.
- Pass one shared context through every stage and select on cancellation during each send.
- Cancel the context on the first error and wait for all stages.
Using "go-concurrency-patterns". Suggest a verification plan for a suspected race in a shared cache.
Expected outcome:
- Run focused tests with the race detector under repeated concurrent reads and writes.
- Check every shared field for consistent mutex ownership or replace suitable access with sync.Map.
- Add stress tests that exercise deletion, replacement, cancellation, and shutdown.

Skillstore Score
Why this score Evidence Confidence: HighWhat You Can Build
Build a Worker Pool
Create a bounded worker pool with cancellation, result handling, and clear channel ownership.
Review Concurrent Services
Assess goroutine lifecycles, shutdown behavior, synchronization, and error propagation before release.
Debug Race Conditions
Trace likely races, deadlocks, blocked channels, and leaks, then define focused verification steps.
Try These Prompts
Explain how buffered and unbuffered Go channels differ, including blocking behavior and one practical example for each.
Design a cancellable Go worker pool for [job type] with [worker count] workers, bounded queues, result collection, and clear channel ownership.
Review this concurrent Go design for goroutine leaks, deadlocks, races, and cancellation gaps, then propose focused fixes and verification steps.
Architect a Go pipeline for [workload] with fan-out, fan-in, backpressure, errgroup cancellation, graceful shutdown, and race-detector validation.
Best Practices
- Give every goroutine a defined owner, exit condition, and cancellation path.
- Close channels from the sending side and document which component owns closure.
- Validate concurrent behavior with race detection, stress tests, timeouts, and representative load.
Avoid
- Do not use sleeps to coordinate goroutines or assume scheduler ordering.
- Do not launch unbounded goroutines for input that can grow without limit.
- Do not ignore context cancellation during blocking sends, receives, or external operations.
