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.

Dependencies: gopls — go install golang.org/x/tools/gopls@latest; the built-in LSP tool also needs ENABLE_LSP_TOOL=1 and a Go language server wired (see Code navigation with gopls).

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.
Configure — write the always-load directive for golang-how-to itself, plus an optional ## Required Go skills block, to the project's CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md. Follow project-config.md.

Skill loading

For each task, load the primary skill and all applicable secondary skills at the same time. Do not wait — load them together at the start.

Code navigation with gopls

gopls gives semantic code intelligence for Go — go-to-definition, find references, diagnostics, package API, symbol search, refactoring. → See samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-gopls skill for the three ways to reach it (its own MCP server, the native LSP tool, and its CLI), the full capability matrix, and efficient read/edit workflows.

gopls only reasons about code that is present and resolvable in the local build: your workspace plus every dependency exactly as pinned in go.sum (including replace directives). For any fact that isn't tied to your local build — version history, licenses, ecosystem-wide importers, a package you haven't added yet — use golang-pkg-go-dev (godig). See the godig vs gopls vs Context7 vs govulncheck section below for the full boundary.

`godig` vs gopls vs Context7 vs govulncheck

Four tools can answer "is this dependency OK to use," and they don't overlap as much as they look:

Context7 is a general-purpose, cross-language documentation fetcher — useful when no more specific source exists. For a Go package or module, godig is almost always the better choice: it pulls structured, Go-specific data straight from pkg.go.dev — exact versions, exported symbols with signatures, runnable examples, imported-by, and known vulnerabilities — rather than Context7's generic scraped/curated docs, which don't expose that structure and can lag or miss lesser-known Go modules. Reach for Context7 only when a dependency's documentation genuinely doesn't exist or isn't indexed on pkg.go.dev.
godig answers questions about the published ecosystem: any Go package or module, whether or not it's in your go.mod yet — it calls the remote pkg.go.dev API and never touches your local checkout. Its vulns command reports CVEs known for a package/version in isolation, regardless of whether your build actually reaches the vulnerable code path.
gopls (→ samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-gopls, via its MCP server, the native LSP tool, or its CLI) answers questions about your specific build: your code plus every dependency exactly as pinned in go.sum, including replace directives pointing at forks or local paths — neither godig nor Context7 can see that. Its go_vulncheck operation runs a single, on-demand reachability check against the workspace as it stands right now.
govulncheck (the standalone CLI, wrapped by the samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-security skill) is the whole-tree audit: it walks the entire module's call graph to confirm which known vulnerabilities are actually reachable, and is the tool of record for CI gates and periodic security sweeps — gopls's go_vulncheck is a lighter-weight, single-shot version of the same analysis for use mid-edit.

Pick by task:

Task	Tool	How
Find where a symbol is defined in your own repo	`gopls`	`samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-gopls` — `go_search`, then `go_file_context`
Understand a file's intra-package dependencies	`gopls`	`samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-gopls` — `go_file_context`
Jump into a dependency's exact resolved source (incl. forks/`replace`d versions)	`gopls`	`samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-gopls` — `go_package_api`, or the native `LSP` tool's `goToDefinition`
Find every call site in your own code that references a dependency's symbol	`gopls`	`samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-gopls` — `go_symbol_references` — `godig`'s `imported-by` only lists public packages, not call sites in your repo
Get compiler diagnostics right after an edit	`gopls`	`samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-gopls` — `go_diagnostics` (MCP), or automatic with the native `LSP` tool
Check whether your current build can reach a known vulnerability, mid-edit	`gopls`	`samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-gopls` — `go_vulncheck`
Rename, extract, inline, or otherwise refactor local code	`gopls`	`samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-gopls` — safe rename, `refactor.*` code actions
Whole-tree vulnerability audit across the module (CI, periodic sweep)	`govulncheck`	`samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-security` skill — `govulncheck ./...`
List available versions of a published package	`godig`	`godig versions <path>`
Check known CVEs for a package/version you haven't added yet	`godig`	`godig vulns <path>`
See exported symbols/signatures of a published package	`godig`	`godig symbols` / `symbol doc`
Get runnable code examples for a symbol	`godig`	`godig symbol examples`
Read a package's rendered README/docs	`godig`	`godig module readme` / `package doc`
See who imports a package across the whole public ecosystem	`godig`	`godig imported-by`
Search for a package or library candidate	`godig`	`godig search`
Check a package's or module's license	`godig`	`godig package licenses` / `module licenses`
Get docs for a non-Go library, or a Go module not indexed on pkg.go.dev	Context7	`resolve-library-id` / `query-docs`

See the samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-pkg-go-dev skill for the full godig command reference, and the samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-security skill for the whole-tree govulncheck remediation workflow.

Gap — correctness vs threat: golang-safety (internal bugs) vs golang-security (external threats)
Gap — features vs rules: golang-modernize (language adoption) vs golang-lint (static analysis config)
Gap — process vs target rules: golang-refactoring (the safe, staged, at-scale process of changing existing code — planning, ordering, gopls-driven mechanics, staged PRs) vs golang-naming/golang-code-style/golang-project-layout/golang-design-patterns/golang-modernize (what the resulting code should look like) — load golang-refactoring alongside whichever of these owns the target shape

Configure mode

Write an always-load directive for golang-how-to itself to a project's CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md, and optionally force-trigger specific secondary skills too.

samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-project-layout writes the always-load directive automatically at project creation, with no user confirmation needed — it costs one skill description and never imposes project-specific choices. Running /golang-how-to configure writes it too if missing, and additionally lets the user confirm a ## Required Go skills block for skills that must always apply beyond routing. Follow project-config.md.

This skill is not exhaustive. Refer to individual skill files and the official Go documentation for detailed guidance.
