What problem does it solve? Choosing a Go library is a long-term maintenance commitment, and picking abandoned, bloated, or over-engineered dependencies creates security and upkeep burdens. This Skill provides a disciplined selection process so every recommendation is mature, licensed, maintained, and as simple as the task allows. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Stdlib-first evaluation: Checks the Go standard library, including new v2 packages and golang.org/x extensions, before suggesting any external dependency. - Vetted category catalogs: Provides curated libraries for web frameworks, ORMs, testing, logging, messaging, DI, and more, plus development tools like golangci-lint and Delve. - Dependency footprint assessment: Weighs transitive dependencies and flags abandoned or unmaintained libraries before recommending them. - Use Case: When asked which HTTP router or ORM to add to a project, the Skill evaluates whether net/http or database/sql suffices, then recommends a minimal option like Chi or SQLx with justification. ## Quick Start Ask the AI to recommend a Go library for your task, for example: which Go library should I use for structured logging in a high-throughput API?
