Go SDK Specialist Skill
Overview
This skill specializes in developing idiomatic Go SDKs with proper module versioning, context-based cancellation, and Go-style error handling patterns.
Capabilities
- Design Go SDK architecture with proper module structure
- Implement context-based cancellation and timeouts
- Apply Go error handling patterns with wrapped errors
- Configure go.mod versioning following semver
- Design functional options pattern for configuration
- Implement interface-based design for testability
- Configure proper logging with structured output
- Support concurrent operations safely
Target Processes
- Multi-Language SDK Strategy
- SDK Architecture Design
- SDK Testing Strategy
Integration Points
- Go modules (go.mod)
- go test with testify
- golangci-lint for code quality
- pkg.go.dev for documentation
- goreleaser for releases
Input Requirements
- API specification
- Module path (e.g., github.com/org/sdk)
- Minimum Go version
- Concurrency requirements
- Error handling preferences
Output Artifacts
- Go module source code
- go.mod and go.sum files
- Test files (*_test.go)
- Examples in examples/ directory
- README with installation instructions
- GoDoc-compatible documentation
Usage Example
skill:
name: go-sdk-specialist
context:
apiSpec: ./openapi.yaml
modulePath: github.com/myorg/sdk-go
goVersion: "1.21"
useGenerics: true
errorWrapping: true
functionalOptions: true
Best Practices
- Use functional options for configuration
- Accept interfaces, return structs
- Make zero values useful
- Handle errors explicitly with wrapping
- Use context.Context for cancellation
- Keep packages focused and small
Recommended Agent Skills
Expand your agent's capabilities with these related and highly-rated skills.
gsd-tools
Central utility skill for GSD operations. Provides config parsing, slug generation, timestamps, path operations, and orchestrates calls to other specialized skills. Acts as the unified entry point that the original gsd-tools.cjs provided via its lib/ modules (commands, config, core, init).
model-profile-resolution
Resolve model profile (quality/balanced/budget) at orchestration start and map agents to specific models. Enables cost/quality tradeoffs by selecting appropriate AI models for each agent role.
verification-suite
Plan structure validation, phase completeness checks, reference integrity verification, and artifact existence confirmation. Provides the structured verification layer ensuring GSD artifacts are well-formed and complete.
state-management
STATE.md reading, writing, and field-level updates. Provides cross-session state persistence via .planning/STATE.md with structured fields for current task, completed phases, blockers, decisions, and quick tasks.
git-integration
Git commit patterns, formats, and conventions for GSD methodology. Provides atomic commits per task, structured commit messages, planning file commits, branch management, and milestone tag operations.
frontmatter-parsing
YAML frontmatter parsing and manipulation for .planning/ documents. Provides read, write, update, query, and validation operations on frontmatter blocks in GSD markdown artifacts.
