Go Docker Containerization
Optimizes Go application containerization with multi-stage builds, distroless images, and production-ready security patterns.
This skill provides a comprehensive framework for building high-performance, secure Docker containers specifically for Go services. It guides Claude to implement industry best practices such as multi-stage builds to reduce image size by up to 95%, layer caching for faster CI/CD pipelines, and the use of distroless base images to minimize the attack surface. By enforcing non-root user execution and proper health check definitions, it ensures Go applications are ready for deployment in modern orchestration environments like Kubernetes.
