Modernize Golang code to use recent language features, standard library improvements, and idiomatic patterns. Use when reviewing Go code with old-style patterns, when encountering a deprecation warning, or when the user asks for modernization, a Go version upgrade (e.g. to Go 1.27), or a CI/tooling refresh. Not for structural refactors, extracting functions, or moving code between packages (→ See `samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-refactoring` skill).

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

What this skill can do

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'golang-modernize' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'golang-modernize' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named golang-modernize already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/samber/cc-skills-golang' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet 'd68d80aec298e1b74b37c2a472c002b5217248b3' -- 'skills/golang-modernize' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/golang-modernize' ~/.agents/skills/'golang-modernize' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'golang-modernize' ~/.claude/skills/'golang-modernize' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
