What it does

Go Services is an agent skill from WrongStack/WrongStack. Build and upgrade Go services, workers and CLI applications with context propagation and explicit ownership. Use when implementing Go HTTP/data/concurrency paths; preserve module and deployment constraints and verify race-sensitive behavior deterministically.

Its SKILL.md is about 720 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 DevOps & Cloud, covering Async programming. The repository describes itself as: An AI coding agent that reads your code, edits files, runs commands, and reasons through bugs — across a terminal REPL, a full-screen TUI, and a browser UI, while you keep your… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Implementing Go HTTP/data/concurrency paths
  • Preserve module and deployment constraints and verify race-sensitive behavior deterministically

Example prompts

  • “/go-services”

Requirements

  • Docker

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Propagate context deadlines/cancellation through owned I/O and goroutines.
  2. Define channel/goroutine ownership: who closes, who waits and how work stops.
  3. Bound concurrency and output; one goroutine per unbounded item is not a resource policy.
  4. Check errors at the operation boundary and release files/connections/response bodies on every path.
  5. Protect shared state according to access patterns; copied structs can still share maps/slices/pointers.
  6. Distinguish compile success from data races and lifecycle correctness.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit a744bdc. 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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • go.dev

    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 Services loads about 723 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 68 tokens; SKILL.md has 253 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~68
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~723

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.

Go Services

Selection card

  • Task: Build Go handlers, concurrency and cancellation. / TR: Go handler, eşzamanlılık ve iptal kur.
  • Start: Locate the endpoint, schema, authentication boundary and caller.
  • Finish: apply the acceptance checks below; report observed results and unresolved constraints.

Overview

Build and upgrade Go services, workers and CLI applications with context propagation and explicit ownership.

Checked stable Go target: 1.27.2 on 2026-10-09. Inspect go.mod/toolchain, dependencies and actual compiler before using release-specific APIs.

Rules

  1. Propagate context deadlines/cancellation through owned I/O and goroutines.
  2. Define channel/goroutine ownership: who closes, who waits and how work stops.
  3. Bound concurrency and output; one goroutine per unbounded item is not a resource policy.
  4. Check errors at the operation boundary and release files/connections/response bodies on every path.
  5. Protect shared state according to access patterns; copied structs can still share maps/slices/pointers.
  6. Distinguish compile success from data races and lifecycle correctness.

Workflow

  1. Inspect modules, entrypoint, existing interfaces and tests.
  2. Verify current toolchain target and dependency support.
  3. Implement the narrow path with context and cleanup contracts.
  4. Use controlled completion ordering for lifecycle/race cases; run the configured race detector where applicable.
  5. Run project format/vet/test/build and exercise the actual command/service.

Before returning

Context and resource ownership explicit; failure/stop paths checked; toolchain, race/test/build results reported separately.
