golang-continuous-integration

CI/CD pipeline configuration using GitHub Actions for Golang projects — testing, linting, SAST, security scanning, code coverage, Dependabot, Renovate, GoReleaser, code review automation, and release pipelines. Use when setting up or improving Go project CI, configuring GitHub Actions workflows, adding linters or security scanners, automating dependency updates, or adding quality gates.

Quality

Content

78%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

A well-structured CI/CD skill that defers workflow YAML to bundled asset files and keeps the body as a navigable overview with a Quick Reference table and explicit Setup/Improve modes. It is actionable and well-organized; the main gap is the absence of an explicit validate-then-retry feedback loop for destructive release and auto-merge operations.

Suggestions

Add an explicit validate/retry checkpoint for destructive operations — e.g. after auto-merge or release, confirm status checks passed and tag was created before declaring success — to push workflow_clarity to 5.

Tighten the Docker 'Key details' bullet list and the Action Versions caveat, or move them into the referenced docker.yml / a versioning note, to reduce token weight.

Inline a minimal .golangci.yml starter (or a one-line reference to the exact file path in the golang-lint skill) so the lint stage is fully self-contained rather than deferring to a peer skill.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is largely efficient — a Quick Reference table plus terse per-stage notes — but the Docker section's multi-bullet key-details list and the Action Versions caveat add some content that could be trimmed. It mostly assumes Claude's competence without explaining basics, sitting noticeably above the midpoint anchor.

4 / 5

Actionability

Concrete and executable: each stage links to a real workflow file in ./assets, gives specific test flags (-race, -shuffle=on, -count=1, -coverprofile), and concrete matrix guidance. Minor gaps — the .golangci.yml config is delegated to another skill rather than inlined — keep it just below fully copy-paste ready.

4 / 5

Workflow Clarity

Setup and Improve modes give an explicit ordered sequence (test → lint → security → release) and a gap-audit workflow, and security warnings act as checkpoints (e.g. do not remove the actor guard; branch protection is the real safety net). It lacks an explicit validate-then-retry feedback loop for the destructive release/auto-merge operations, so it does not reach 5.

4 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

Clear overview structure with well-signaled one-level-deep references to real files in ./assets and ./references/repo-security.md; bulk workflow content is appropriately split out of SKILL.md and linked rather than inlined, matching the top anchor.

Description

100%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

This is a high-quality description: it concisely enumerates concrete capabilities in third person and follows with an explicit, multi-phrase 'Use when' trigger clause. It cleanly satisfies the what/when requirement and occupies a distinct niche with low conflict risk.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists multiple concrete actions across the Go CI domain — testing, linting, SAST, security scanning, coverage, Dependabot, Renovate, GoReleaser, code review automation, and release pipelines — giving comprehensive coverage of capabilities.

5 / 5

Completeness

Explicitly answers both what (the CI/CD pipeline configuration capabilities) and when (a concrete 'Use when...' clause with multiple trigger phrases), matching the top anchor.

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Includes natural user phrasing in the 'Use when' clause — 'setting up or improving Go project CI', 'configuring GitHub Actions workflows', 'adding linters or security scanners', 'automating dependency updates', 'adding quality gates' — covering the natural terms users would say.

5 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

A clear niche — GitHub Actions CI/CD for Golang projects — with distinct triggers; minimal conflict risk with unrelated skills, matching the top anchor.
