SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Go dependency management can be error-prone and time-consuming as projects evolve, requiring careful versioning, vulnerability checks, and workspace coordination.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Dependency management for go.mod, module upgrades, and minimal version selection (MVS).
  • Vulnerability scanning with govulncheck and outdated dependency tracking.
  • Workload: manage go.work workspaces, size analysis, and automated updates via Dependabot/Renovate.

Quick Start

Run a quick audit of your go.mod, enable automated updates, and verify dependencies with govulncheck.

Frequently Asked Questions about golang-dependency-management

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate go.mod dependency management and vulnerability scanning?▼

Automate go.mod dependency management by handling module upgrades, minimal version selection (MVS), and running govulncheck to track vulnerabilities and outdated dependencies for stable builds.

What is minimal version selection (MVS) and how does it work for Go modules?▼

Minimal version selection (MVS) is Go's dependency resolution algorithm that locks the lowest module version satisfying requirements, ensuring reproducible builds when managing dependencies across go.mod files.

How do I manage dependencies across multiple Go workspaces with go.work?▼

Manage dependencies across Go workspaces by coordinating go.work files to synchronize module versions, enabling consistent builds and dependency tracking across interdependent local modules.

Can I use Dependabot or Renovate for automated Go dependency updates?▼

Yes, you can configure Dependabot or Renovate for automated Go dependency updates, enabling continuous module upgrades and vulnerability patching directly within your repository workflows.

What is the best way to audit Go dependencies for vulnerabilities and size?▼

Audit Go dependencies by running govulncheck for vulnerability scanning and performing dependency size analysis, identifying outdated modules and security risks across your project.

Why does my Go build break after a dependency upgrade in go.mod?▼

Go build breaks after dependency upgrades often stem from MVS conflicts or unscanned vulnerabilities, requiring systematic go.mod auditing and version locking to restore stable builds.
