What problem does it solve?

Keeps Go code current by automatically applying modern idioms, language features, and standard library improvements, reducing technical debt and improving readability, safety, and performance.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Continuous Go modernization guided by Go version milestones (Go 1.21–Go 1.26) to surface appropriate patterns such as min/max, slices/maps, and modern error handling, while advising on tooling upgrades (linting, security checks, and CI pipelines).
• Guidance for upgrading Go versions, migrating to idiomatic constructs, and adopting standard library replacements to future-proof code bases.
• Use Case: When writing or reviewing Go code, the skill suggests concrete modernizations during refactors or code reviews and helps plan long-term modernization roadmaps.
