Go Code Review Checklist

Compatibility: references/WEB-SERVER.md uses log/slog examples that require Go 1.21+.

Resource Routing

• assets/review-template.md - Use when formatting review output with Must Fix, Should Fix, and Nits sections.
• scripts/pre-review.sh - Run before manual review to collect gofmt, go vet, and golangci-lint results.
• references/WEB-SERVER.md - Read when reviewing an HTTP server that combines concurrency, context, logging, error handling, and shutdown behavior.

Review Procedure

Use assets/review-template.md when formatting the output of a code review to ensure consistent structure with Must Fix / Should Fix / Nits severity grouping.

1. Run gofmt -d . and go vet ./... to catch mechanical issues first
2. Read the diff file-by-file; for each file, check the categories below in order
3. Flag issues with specific line references and the rule name
4. After reviewing all files, re-read flagged items to verify they're genuine issues
5. Summarize findings grouped by severity (must-fix, should-fix, nit)
