What it does

The go-defensive skill provides defensive capabilities within the Go programming language ecosystem, helping AI agents secure applications against common vulnerabilities. It focuses on implementing robust security measures to protect code integrity and data safety.

When to use it

• Securing new Go projects before deployment to production environments.
• Auditing existing codebases for potential security flaws or injection points.
• Integrating authentication and authorization logic into backend services.
• Hardening APIs against unauthorized access attempts and malicious inputs.

Key capabilities

• Implements standard defensive patterns specific to the Go runtime.
• Assists in identifying and mitigating common security risks.
• Provides guidance on secure coding practices for Golang applications.

Example prompts

• "Use go-defensive to review this login handler for SQL injection vulnerabilities."
• "Generate a defensive middleware example for validating user input in a Go web service."
• "How can I use go-defensive to ensure my API keys are stored securely?"

Tips & gotchas

This skill is specialized for the Go language; do not apply it to Python or JavaScript projects. Always combine automated checks with manual code reviews for critical security decisions.
