Key Execution Capabilities

Code Validation

• Run go build for compilation validation
• Execute golangci-lint for comprehensive linting
• Run tests with go test
• Validate module structure and dependencies

Tool Integration

• Use golangci-lint for multi-linter analysis
• Leverage go mod for dependency management
• Apply go fmt and go vet for formatting and validation
• Execute go test with coverage for testing

Execution Context

• Process Go files from filesystem layer
• Generate structured reports with findings
• Create minimal, rule-compliant patches for violations
• Maintain separation between governance rules and execution tools

Error Handling

This skill provides execution-layer error handling for Go code analysis:

• Compilation errors or warnings
• Linting rule violations
• Missing dependencies or tools
• Test failures or coverage issues

Usage Notes

• Always delegate to governance rules for policy decisions
• Focus on concrete tool execution and result processing
• Provide deterministic, tool-first analysis results
• Maintain separation between rule definition and rule application
