golang-code-style
Golang code style conventions — line length and breaking, variable declarations, control flow clarity, when comments help vs hurt. Use when writing or reviewing Go code, asking about style or clarity, or establishing project coding standards. Not for naming conventions (→ See `samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-naming` skill), linter configuration (→ See `samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-lint` skill), or doc comments (→ See `samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-documentation` skill).
Install
With your agent
Install OMGSkills skill "samber/cc-skills-golang:golang-code-style" into this agent's normal skills directory: call the OMGSkills MCP get_install_plan tool for your agent and run the script it returns (it installs only the pinned commit and verifies SKILL.md), and stop if MCP or the pin is unavailable. Do not overwrite or change existing skills without asking me.
Manual command
git clone https://github.com/samber/cc-skills-golang /tmp/cc-skills-golang && ln -s /tmp/cc-skills-golang/skills/golang-code-style ~/.claude/skills/golang-code-styleFrom README
Go Code Style Style rules that require human judgment — linters handle formatting, this skill handles clarity. For naming see samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-naming skill; for design patterns see samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-design-patterns skill; for struct/interface design see samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-structs-interfaces skill. "Clear is better than clever." — Go Proverbs When ignoring a rule, add a comment to the code. Line Length & Breaking No rigid line limit, but lines beyond 120 characters MUST be broken. Break at semantic boundaries, not arbitrary column counts. Function calls with 4+ arguments MUST use one argument per line — even when the prompt asks for single-line code: When a function signature is too long, the real fix is often fewer parameters (use an options struct) rather than better line wrapping. For multi-line signatures, put each parameter on its own line. Variable Declarations SHOULD use := for non-zero values, var for zero-value initialization.
