What this skill does
Idiomatic Go patterns for error handling, interfaces, concurrency, testing, and module management Rules: - Always wrap errors with context using fmt.Errorf("context: %w", err) - Use %w to allow callers to use errors.Is and errors.As - Handle errors at the appropriate level; do not log and return the same error - Define sentinel errors for expected conditions
