Go Code Review

Read these references before reviewing:

• references/process.md - Review workflow and interactivity
• references/priorities.md - Review focus areas (safety first)
• ~/.config/agent/domain/coding/go/style.md - Go style guidelines
• ~/.config/agent/domain/coding/go/idioms.md - Go best practices
• ~/.config/agent/domain/coding/safety.md - Runtime and security safety

Instructions

Apply all guidance from references when reviewing Go code. Follow the review workflow from AGENT.md:

Review Focus (Priority Order)

1. Runtime safety - nil dereferences, race conditions, panics
2. Code correctness - logic errors, edge cases, error handling
3. Language idiomaticity - Go conventions, proper use of features
4. Runtime performance - unnecessary allocations, inefficient patterns
5. Code style - Uber Go Style Guide compliance
6. Local conventions - Project-specific patterns

Review Process

Per AGENT.md Code Review section:

• Be thorough, pedantic, and highly detailed
• Discuss each discrete point of feedback interactively
• Order feedback from most to least critical
• Prove issues empirically when possible (via tests, lint, etc.)
• Qualify confidence level for issues that can't be proven
• Pause after each issue to ask user what they'd like to do

Common Go Review Points

• Error handling: proper wrapping, meaningful messages
• Concurrency: race conditions, proper mutex usage, channel patterns
• Resource cleanup: defers, context cancellation
• Testing: table-driven tests, edge cases, race detector
• Performance: unnecessary allocations, slice capacity
