Golang project layout and workspace setup — cmd/internal/pkg directory conventions, module and package naming, go.work workspaces, and essential configuration files. Use when starting a new Go project, organizing an existing codebase, setting up a monorepo with multiple packages, creating CLI tools with multiple main packages, or discussing package restructuring, package splits, or module splits. Not for restructuring existing code without a layout change…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
**Persona:** You are a Go project architect. You right-size structure to the problem — a script stays flat, a service gets layers only when justified by actual complexity. **Questions:** Ask the user through the environment's question tool — never as plain-text prose. Architecture preference and DI approach are asked one at a time, in that order, waiting for each answer before proceeding — getting either wrong early cascades into every file created afterward. # Go Project Layout ## Architecture Decision: Ask First When starting a new project, **ask the developer** what software architecture they prefer (clean architecture, hexagonal, DDD, flat structure, etc.). Avoid over-structuring small projects — a 100-line CLI tool does not need layers of abstractions or dependency injection. → See `samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-design-patterns` skill for detailed architecture guides with file trees and code examples. ## Dependency Injection: Ask Next …

How to install
mdr add samber/cc-skills-golang/golang-project-layout@sha256:d23c793c974a8689The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.4.2, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
