Design and implement Go structs and interfaces, including composition, embedding, type assertions, type switches, interface segregation, dependency injection, struct field tags, and receiver types. Use for defining interfaces, embedding structs, writing type assertions, adding field tags, and choosing receiver types.
Install
skills is a generic installer for any repository of Claude agent skills -- it reads samber/cc-skills-golang’s own structure rather than assuming one, the same way this page reads the skill’s own SKILL.md rather than assuming a format.

Maintenance
Golang struct and interface design patterns — composition, embedding, type assertions, type switches, interface segregation, dependency injection via interfaces, struct field tags, and pointer vs value receivers. Use this skill when designing Go types, defining or implementing interfaces, embedding structs or interfaces, writing type assertions or type switches, adding struct field tags for JSON/YAML/DB serialization, or choosing between pointer and value receivers. Also use when the user asks about "accept interfaces, return structs", compile-time interface checks, or composing small interfaces into larger ones.
