Public Skills
golang-samber-hot
by samber
"In-memory caching in Golang using samber/hot — eviction algorithms (LRU, LFU, TinyLFU, W-TinyLFU, S3FIFO, ARC, TwoQueue, SIEVE, FIFO), TTL, cache loaders, sharding, stale-while-revalidate, missing key caching, and Prometheus metrics. Apply when using or adopting samber/hot, when the codebase imports github.com/samber/hot, or when the project repeatedly loads the same medium-to-low cardinality resources at high frequency and needs to reduce latency or backend pressure."
golang-uber-fx
by samber
"Golang application framework using uber-go/fx — fx.New, fx.Provide, fx.Invoke, fx.Module, fx.Lifecycle hooks, fx.Annotate (name/group/As), fx.Decorate, fx.Supply, fx.Replace, fx.WithLogger, and signal-aware Run(). Apply when using or adopting uber-go/fx, when the codebase imports go.uber.org/fx, or when wiring services with fx.New. For raw DI without lifecycle, see samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-uber-dig skill."
golang-popular-libraries
by samber
"Golang library and framework selection — vetted production-ready options by category (web, database, testing, logging, messaging), new and experimental stdlib packages, standard-library-first tradeoffs, and maturity signals (maintenance, license, importer counts). Apply when the user asks for library suggestions, wants to compare alternatives, needs to choose a library for a specific task, or when a new dependency is being added to the project. Not for a specific library's API once chosen (→ See that library's dedicated skill, e.g. samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-samber-lo), nor for go.mod mechanics, upgrades, or vulnerability audits (→ See samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-dependency-management skill)."
golang-documentation

For higher-level lifecycle and modules, see samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-uber-fx skill."
golang-gopls
by samber
"Golang semantic code intelligence via gopls, the official Go language server — go-to-definition, find references, call/implementation hierarchy, workspace symbol search, package API discovery, diagnostics, safe rename, refactors (extract/inline/fill/rewrite code actions), formatting, and generated tests. Reaches an agent via gopls's own MCP server (go_* tools), Claude Code's native LSP tool, or the gopls CLI. Use when navigating or refactoring Go code — jumping to a definition, finding call sites before a rename, understanding a file's or package's dependencies, running diagnostics after an edit, or extracting/inlining/renaming. Not for the published ecosystem — packages not in your go.mod, versions, licenses, importers — → See samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-pkg-go-dev skill (godig). Not for a whole-tree vulnerability audit → See samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-security skill (govulncheck)."
golang-benchmark
by samber
"Golang benchmarking, profiling, and performance measurement. Use when writing, running, or comparing Go benchmarks, profiling hot paths with pprof, interpreting CPU/memory/trace profiles, analyzing results with benchstat, setting up CI benchmark regression detection, or investigating production performance with Prometheus runtime metrics. Also use when the developer needs deep analysis on a specific performance indicator - this skill provides the measurement methodology, while samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-performance provides the optimization patterns."
golang-spf13-cobra
by samber
"Golang CLI command tree library using spf13/cobra — cobra.Command, RunE vs Run, PersistentPreRunE hook chain, Args validators (NoArgs, ExactArgs, MatchAll, custom), persistent vs local flags, command groups, ValidArgsFunction, RegisterFlagCompletionFunc, ShellCompDirective, usage/help template customization, man-page and markdown doc generation, and testing with SetArgs/SetOut/SetErr.

golang-how-to
by samber
"Golang skills orchestrator — always active on any Golang coding, review, debug, or setup task. Reads the task context and loads the most relevant skills from samber/cc-skills-golang, often multiple at once: writing a gRPC service loads golang-grpc + golang-testing + golang-error-handling; debugging a panic loads golang-troubleshooting + golang-safety; auditing security loads golang-security + golang-lint + golang-safety. Also: disambiguates competing clusters when two skills seem to overlap (performance vs benchmark vs troubleshooting, samber/lo vs mo vs ro, DI cluster, safety vs security), and configures the project's agent-config file (CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, GEMINI.md, Cursor rules, or Copilot instructions) to force-trigger skills in a project (/golang-how-to configure)."
golang-performance
by samber
"Golang performance optimization patterns and methodology - if X bottleneck, then apply Y. Covers allocation reduction, CPU efficiency, memory layout, GC tuning, pooling, caching, and hot-path optimization. Use when profiling or benchmarks have identified a bottleneck and you need the right optimization pattern to fix it. Also use when performing performance code review to suggest improvements or benchmarks that could help identify quick performance gains.
