Install target

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 bobmatnyc/claude-mpm-skills at 718070a7d6.

    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

What it does

This skill enables AI agents to generate idiomatic, production-ready Go code that leverages concurrency primitives like goroutines, channels, and sync packages. It ensures implementations follow established patterns for safe data sharing and efficient parallel processing without race conditions.

When to use it

  • Building high-throughput microservices that require handling thousands of simultaneous connections.
  • Creating background workers or job queues where tasks must be processed concurrently.
  • Designing pipelines that need to stream data between stages using buffered channels.
  • Optimizing CPU-bound applications by distributing work across multiple cores safely.

Key capabilities

  • Generates code utilizing goroutines for lightweight, concurrent execution.
  • Implements safe communication between routines via channels.
  • Applies synchronization mechanisms like mutex, waitgroup, and atomic operations.
  • Structures error handling to prevent goroutine leaks during shutdown.
  • Writes context-aware cancellation logic for graceful termination of long-running tasks.

Example prompts

  • "Write a Go function that processes a list of URLs concurrently using goroutines and channels, returning results in order."
  • "Create a worker pool pattern in Go with N workers processing jobs from a channel, ensuring proper shutdown via context."
  • "Implement a fan-out/fan-in pattern to aggregate logs from multiple services into a single output stream safely."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure your prompts specify the desired number of goroutines or buffer sizes, as defaults may not suit high-load scenarios. Always request explicit handling of context.Context to avoid resource leaks in long-running services.
