language-go SKILL.md skillA
language-go from lugassawan/swe-workbench is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Go idioms — error handling, concurrency, and standard library usage. Auto-load when working with .go files, go.mod, go.sum, or when the user mentions Go, Golang, goroutines, channels, context, or error wrapping.
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
# Go
## Errors are values
- Return `error`; do not `panic` across package boundaries.
- Wrap with `fmt.Errorf("doing X: %w", err)` to preserve the chain.
- Inspect with `errors.Is` and `errors.As`. Never string-match messages.
- Sentinel errors (`var ErrNotFound = errors.New(...)`) for expected cases; typed errors when callers need structured data.
```go
if err != nil {
return fmt.Errorf("load user %s: %w", id, err)
}
```
## Interfaces — small, defined by the consumer
- Define interfaces in the package that *uses* them, not where concrete types live.
- Single-method interfaces are normal (`io.Reader`, `io.Closer`).
- Accept interfaces, return concrete types.
## Concurrency
- A goroutine without a known termination path is a leak. Always know who stops it.
- `context.Context` plumbs cancellation and deadlines — first parameter, named `ctx`.
- Channels for ownership transfer; mutexes for protecting state. A `sync.Mutex` is often simpler than a goroutine.
- `errgroup.Group` for structured concurrency with error propagation.
```go
g, ctx := errgroup.WithContext(ctx)
for _, job := range jobs {
job := job
g.Go(func() error { return process(ctx, job) })
}

How to install
mdr add lugassawan/swe-workbench/language-go@sha256:e5bf9acb5595cdf9The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260828.71a6399, 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.
