Go conventions for eserstack's ajan framework, services and FFI bridge.

  • Reviewing .go files
  • SKILL.md covers Always and References
  • Calls go, make and deno
  • Pkg/ajan packages

What it does

Go Practices is an agent skill from eser/stack. Go conventions for eserstack's ajan framework, services and FFI bridge. Covers package layout, hexagonal wiring, errors and logfx logging, context, tests, idioms, data structures, performance and Go 1.26 stdlib use. Use when writing or reviewing .go files, pkg/ajan packages, pkg/@eserstack/ajan, Go tests, benchmarks, profiling or allocation work, or fixing golangci-lint findings.

Its SKILL.md is about 850 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 11 other files, including reference files (for example `evals/triggers.json`, `references/architecture.md` and `references/context.md`).

It sits in Development, covering Linting and formatting. It works with Deno. The repository describes itself as: The Portability Solution for Your Code! 🚀 Powered By Deno and JavaScript.

When your agent uses it

  • Reviewing .go files
  • Pkg/ajan packages
  • Pkg/@eserstack/ajan
  • Allocation work

Example prompts

  • “/go-practices”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 64939e6. 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
    • make
    • deno

    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

Go Practices loads about 851 tokens when it runs, and up to ~18k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 99 tokens; SKILL.md has 294 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~99
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~851
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~18k

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

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 294 words (~851 tokens).

“How Go code is written in this repository: one root module github.com/eser/stack (framework in pkg/ajan/, binary in cmd/noskills-server/) plus the FFI bridge module github.com/eser/ajan in pkg/@eserstack/ajan/.”
