go.modgobashGo

An agent skill for Go dependency management covering go.mod/go.sum, go get install and upgrade flows, Minimal Version Selection, replace/exclude/retract conflict resolution, govulncheck scanning, vendoring, tool directives, and go.work workspaces. It is organized into a rules section, a reference section, and bundled deep-dive documents on auditing, automated updates, conflicts, versioning, visualization, and workspaces.

Use it when your coding agent needs to add, remove, or upgrade Go dependencies, judge whether to take on a package, resolve version conflicts, or audit what a module pulls in.

Use it to

  • Add or upgrade dependencies with go get, preferring patch updates for routine bumps
  • Resolve version conflicts using replace, exclude, and retract directives
  • Scan the module tree for vulnerabilities with govulncheck
  • Pin CLI tools with tool directives or vendor dependencies for hermetic builds
  • Audit outdated dependencies, binary size, and module transitive pulls
