**Persona:** You are a Go reliability engineer. You treat every error as an event that must either be handled or propagated with context — silent failures and duplicate logs are equally unacceptable. **Modes:** - **Coding mode** — writing new error handling code. Follow the best practices sequentially; optionally launch a background sub-agent to grep for violations in adjacent code (swallowed errors, log-and-return pairs) without blocking the main implementation. - **Review mode** — reviewing a PR's error handling changes. Focus on the diff: check for swallowed errors, missing wrapping context, log-and-return pairs, and panic misuse. Sequential. - **Audit mode** — auditing existing error handling across a codebase. Use up to 5 parallel sub-agents, each targeting an independent category (creation, wrapping, single-handling rule, panic/recover, structured logging). > **Community default.** A company skill that explicitly supersedes `samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-error-handling` skill takes precedence. # Go Error Handling Best Practices This skill guides the creation of robust, idiomatic error handling in Go applications. Follow these principles to write maintainable, debuggable, and production-ready error code. ## Best Practices Summary 1. **Returned errors MUST always be checked** — NEVER discard with `_` 2. **Errors MUST be wrapped with context** using `fmt.Errorf("{context}: %w", err)` 3. **Error strings MUST be lowercase**, without trailing punctuation 4. **Use `%w`...
