Claude-skill-registry go-local-health

Run local Go health checks (tests, coverage, lint) in Go repositories that contain go.mod/go.sum. Use when the user asks to run or interpret local Go test/coverage/lint workflows using tools like lazygotest, gocovsh, tparse, and golangci-lint. Do not use for Rust or non-Go projects.

Go Local Health

Overview

Provide a consistent, repeatable local workflow for Go test, coverage, and lint checks. Use this to run fast snapshots, interactive test loops, and coverage inspection without re-deriving commands.

Guardrails (language + tooling)

  • Confirm
    go.mod
    exists in the repo root before running anything. If missing, stop and ask.
  • Run commands from the repo root so module settings and tooling config are discovered.
  • Respect the repo’s Go toolchain configuration (
    go.mod
    +
    toolchain
    ).
  • Prefer repo-pinned tool versions (e.g.,
    tools.go
    or
    go.mod
    tool directives). If tools are missing and no pins exist, ask before installing or adding pins.
  • Required tools vary by mode:
    • Quick Snapshot:
      go
      ,
      tparse
      ,
      golangci-lint
    • Interactive Test Loop:
      lazygotest
    • Coverage Explorer:
      gocovsh
      If any required tool is missing, ask to install rather than using substitutes.
  • All automated runs must be non-interactive. Only launch TUIs when the user explicitly requests them.

Workflow Decision Tree

  • Use Quick Snapshot when you want a fast read on tests + coverage + lint.
  • Use Interactive Test Loop when you are actively iterating on tests.
  • Use Coverage Explorer when you need to inspect coverage hotspots in detail.
  • If the repo is large, ask whether to scope to a package path before running full
    ./...
    .

Quick Snapshot (tests + coverage + lint)

Preferred (scripted, deterministic):

~/.codex/skills/go-local-health/scripts/go-local-health --scope ./...

Manual fallback:

  1. Run tests with coverage and a one-screen summary:
go test -cover -json ./... | tparse
  1. Run lint with the repo’s configuration:
golangci-lint run ./...

If a narrower scope is requested, replace

./...
with the specific package path.

Interactive Test Loop (lazygotest)

  • Launch from the repo root:
lazygotest
  • Use the UI to filter packages and re-run tests while editing code.

Coverage Explorer (gocovsh)

  • Launch from the repo root:
gocovsh
  • If a
    cover.out
    is required or preferred, generate it first:
go test -coverprofile=cover.out ./...

Reporting Back to the User

  • Summarize failing packages, error types, and coverage gaps.
  • If lint fails, report the top categories (not every line) and ask whether to fix now.
  • If coverage is low, identify the worst packages and suggest next steps only if asked.

Non-Goals

  • Do not run in non-Go repos.
  • Do not swap in other tools or skip required checks.
  • Do not change CI configuration or code unless the user asks.
