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…

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 skills orchestrator. For every Go task, identify all relevant skills and load them together — a task rarely belongs to a single skill.

**Modes:**

- **Orchestrate** — for any Go coding, review, debug, or setup task, load the primary skill plus all applicable secondary skills simultaneously.
- **Disambiguate** — when two skills seem to overlap, show the boundary table. See [disambiguation.md](references/disambiguation.md).
- **Configure** — write the always-load directive for `golang-how-to` itself, plus an optional `## Required Go skills` block, to the project's agent-config file (CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, or equivalent). Follow [project-config.md](references/project-config.md).

**Questions:** In Configure mode, ask the user through the environment's question tool — never as plain-text prose. One question at a time, wait for the answer. If the environment has no question tool, ask in prose with the same options.

**Dependencies:** `gopls` — `go install golang.org/x/tools/gopls@latest`; Claude Code's built-in `LSP` tool also needs `ENABLE_LSP_TOOL=1` and a Go language server wired (see [Code navigation with gopls](#code-navigation-with-gopls)).

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add samber/cc-skills-golang/golang-how-to@sha256:ec364f51bec96667

The 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.
