Build Production-Ready Go Systems
Complex Go services require careful concurrency, architecture, testing, and performance decisions. This skill provides focused guidance for maintainable Go 1.21+ systems.
Install with my Agent
Copy this request to your Agent. It includes the canonical Skill page and manifest.
Review the Skillstore skill "golang-pro" from https://skillstore.io/skills/sickn33-golang-pro.md and its manifest at https://skillstore.io/api/skills/sickn33-golang-pro/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 "golang-pro". Review a worker pool that sometimes hangs during shutdown.
Expected outcome:
- The review identifies blocked channel sends and incomplete cancellation propagation as the primary shutdown risks.
- It proposes ownership rules for channel closure, context-aware workers, bounded queues, and timeout tests.
- It recommends race detection and repeated stress tests before deployment.
Using "golang-pro". Plan performance work for a high-allocation HTTP service.
Expected outcome:
- The plan starts with stable load benchmarks and CPU, heap, allocation, and trace profiles.
- It ranks changes by measured impact, including buffer reuse, allocation reduction, connection tuning, and database query analysis.
- It defines regression thresholds and compares results under representative traffic.
Using "golang-pro". Design a production gRPC service with graceful shutdown.
Expected outcome:
- The design covers service boundaries, validation, authentication, deadlines, structured errors, health checks, metrics, and tracing.
- Shutdown sequencing stops new traffic, drains active calls, closes dependencies, and enforces a final timeout.
- The test strategy includes handler tests, integration tests, failure injection, and deployment readiness checks.
Security Audit
SafeThe single static finding is a false positive caused by benign guidance about simplicity and readability. No network reconnaissance instructions, prompt injection, or other malicious intent were found.

Learn Modern Go Patterns
Understand idiomatic error handling, interfaces, generics, contexts, tests, and project organization through focused examples.
Review Service Architecture
Evaluate service boundaries, persistence, APIs, observability, deployment, and operational reliability before implementation.
Improve Production Performance
Use benchmarks, profiles, traces, and concurrency analysis to identify measured improvements.
Try These Prompts
Explain [Go concept] for a beginner. Include its purpose, a practical example, common mistakes, and a small testing strategy.
Review this Go code for correctness, idioms, error handling, concurrency safety, and test gaps. Prioritize findings and explain each proposed change.
Design a Go [worker pool or pipeline] for [workload]. Address backpressure, cancellation, error propagation, shutdown, race prevention, and benchmark coverage.
Design a production Go service for [requirements]. Cover APIs, data storage, security, observability, deployment, failure handling, profiling, and phased validation.
Best Practices
- Provide the Go version, repository context, workload, latency goals, and deployment constraints.
- Request tests, benchmarks, and measurable acceptance criteria with every significant change.
- Validate concurrency with cancellation tests, race detection, stress tests, and clear resource ownership.
Avoid
- Do not optimize without benchmarks, profiles, traces, or representative production evidence.
- Do not start goroutines without defined ownership, cancellation, error handling, and shutdown behavior.
- Do not accept architecture advice without checking repository conventions and operational constraints.
