Golang Documentation

Golang everyday observability — the always-on signals in production. Covers structured logging with slog, Prometheus metrics, OpenTelemetry distributed tracing, continuous profiling with pprof/Pyroscope, server-side RUM event tracking, alerting, and Grafana dashboards. Apply when instrumenting Go services for production monitoring, setting up metrics or alerting, adding OpenTelemetry tracing, correlating logs with traces, migrating legacy loggers (zap/logrus/zerolog) to slog, adding observability to new features, or implementing GDPR/CCPA-compliant tracking with Customer Data Platforms (CDP). Not for temporary deep-dive performance investigation (→ See `samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-benchmark` and `samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-performance` skills).

In-memory caching in Golang using samber/hot — eviction algorithms (LRU, LFU, TinyLFU, W-TinyLFU, S3FIFO, ARC, TwoQueue, SIEVE, FIFO), TTL, cache loaders, sharding, stale-while-revalidate, missing key caching, and Prometheus metrics. Apply when using or adopting samber/hot, when the codebase imports github.com/samber/hot, or when the project repeatedly loads the same medium-to-low cardinality resources at high frequency and needs to reduce latency or backend pressure.

Add Clerk authentication to any project by following the official quickstart guides.

Golang OpenAPI/Swagger documentation with swaggo/swag — annotation comments (@Summary, @Param, @Success, @Router, @Security), swag init code generation, framework integrations (gin, echo, fiber, chi, net/http), security definitions (Bearer/JWT, OAuth2, API key), and struct tags (swaggertype, enums, example, swaggerignore). Apply when adding or maintaining Swagger/OpenAPI docs in a Go project, or when the codebase imports github.com/swaggo/swag, github.com/swaggo/gin-swagger, github.com/swaggo/echo-swagger, github.com/swaggo/http-swagger, or github.com/swaggo/files.

Vite build tool configuration, plugin API, SSR, and Vite 8 Rolldown migration. Use when working with Vite projects, vite.config.ts, Vite plugins, or building libraries/SSR apps with Vite.

Custom authentication flows and component appearance - hooks (useSignIn, useSignUp), themes, colors, fonts, CSS. Use for custom sign-in/sign-up flows, appearance styling, visual customization, branding.
