Enforces Go best practices and idiomatic coding standards during automated code reviews.
This skill empowers Claude Code to perform high-quality, language-specific reviews of Go source code by applying industry-standard patterns from Effective Go and the official Go Code Review Comments wiki. It ensures codebases remain idiomatic through rigorous checks on formatting, naming conventions, and error handling, while simultaneously verifying test coverage using modern conventions like table-driven tests and race detection. Whether you are running local pre-commit checks or full project audits, this skill automates the detection of non-idiomatic patterns and facilitates consistent build verification through standardized Go tooling.
