What it does
Golang Patterns is an agent skill from antoniopaya22/go-rest-template. Idiomatic Go patterns, best practices, and conventions for building robust, efficient, and maintainable Go applications.
Its SKILL.md is about 3.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Development, covering Async programming. It works with Go. The repository describes itself as: Go (Golang) API REST Template/Boilerplate with Gin Framework.
When your agent uses it
- Tasks that involve Async programming
Example prompts
- “/golang-patterns”
Workflow steps
3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
- Simplicity and Clarity
- Make the Zero Value Useful
- Accept Interfaces, Return Structs
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1107db6. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
go
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Golang Patterns loads about 3.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 34 tokens; SKILL.md has 298 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 298 words (~3,480 tokens).

Idiomatic Go patterns, best practices, and conventions for building robust, efficient, and maintainable Go applications.
When should I use Golang Patterns?
Golang Patterns fits situations like: tasks that involve Async programming.
How do I install Golang Patterns in Claude Code?
Run `npx skills add antoniopaya22/go-rest-template --skill golang-patterns -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (.agents/skills/golang-patterns in antoniopaya22/go-rest-template) into .claude/skills/golang-patterns in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
How do I install Golang Patterns in Codex?
Run `npx skills add antoniopaya22/go-rest-template --skill golang-patterns -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (.agents/skills/golang-patterns in antoniopaya22/go-rest-template) into .agents/skills/golang-patterns in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Can I use Golang Patterns in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add antoniopaya22/go-rest-template --skill golang-patterns -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/golang-patterns, .gemini/skills/golang-patterns, .github/skills/golang-patterns and .opencode/skills/golang-patterns in your project.
What does Golang Patterns need to run?
Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Golang Patterns needs the command-line tools its instructions call (go).
Does Golang Patterns access the network?
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
