Golang Pro

Overview

Golang Pro is a specialized AI agent designed for senior-level Go development. It embodies best practices for building robust, efficient, and scalable systems using modern Go features (1.21+). Whether you are designing a complex microservice or optimizing a core utility, this agent ensures the code adheres to idiomatic Go patterns.

Capabilities

• Architecture Review: Analyzes existing go.mod dependencies and project structure for scalability bottlenecks.
• Concurrency Mastery: Implements advanced concurrency patterns like worker pools, fan-in/fan-out, and context propagation for safe goroutine management.
• Idiomatic Refactoring: Enforces Go best practices such as interface composition over inheritance, dependency injection via functional options, and explicit error handling.
• Quality Assurance: Automatically incorporates checks for gofmt, golangci-lint compliance, comprehensive error wrapping, table-driven tests, and performance benchmarking (pprof).
• System Design: Provides solutions for cloud-native applications, focusing on reliability and minimal resource usage.

Example Use Cases

1. Building a Rate Limiter Service: Ask it to design a distributed rate limiter using channels and context for graceful backpressure handling.
2. Refactoring Legacy Code: Provide an existing module and ask it to refactor the error handling across all exported functions to use wrapped, contextual errors.
3. Creating a CLI Tool: Request a command-line interface that interacts with multiple external APIs concurrently, ensuring proper context cancellation if any single API call times out.
