Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned cxuu/golang-skills at 91f0c2eef5.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

This is a static scan, not a review. It reads the skill's files; it does not run them, and it cannot tell you whether the skill is any good or whether the code does what its description says. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent.

About this skill

The go-style-core skill provides AI agents with foundational knowledge of Go programming language conventions, idioms, and standard library usage to generate or refactor code that adheres to community best practices. It ensures generated code aligns with the specific syntax and structural expectations of the Go ecosystem.

When to use it

  • Refactoring legacy scripts into idiomatic Go modules.
  • Generating new functions that strictly follow gofmt and go vet standards.
  • Debugging errors related to interface definitions or goroutine management in Go projects.
  • Writing unit tests using the standard testing package patterns.

Key capabilities

  • Enforces proper capitalization rules for exported identifiers versus private variables.
  • Applies correct error handling patterns, such as returning errors instead of panicking.
  • Structures code to utilize composition over inheritance where applicable.
  • Formats output to match the official Go style guide automatically.

Example prompts

  • "Refactor this Python script into idiomatic Go, ensuring all imports are organized and variable names follow Go conventions."
  • "Generate a main.go file that implements a simple HTTP server using the standard library with proper error handling."
  • "Explain why my current implementation of a channel-based worker pool violates Go concurrency best practices."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure your AI agent understands that Go relies heavily on explicit type declarations and lacks features like dynamic typing found in other languages. This skill is most effective when the agent also has access to the official Go documentation for specific library functions.
