Go Local Health

Overview

Provide a consistent, repeatable local workflow for Go test, coverage, and lint checks. Use this to run fast snapshots, interactive test loops, and coverage inspection without re-deriving commands.

Guardrails (language + tooling)

• Confirm go.mod exists in the repo root before running anything. If missing, stop and ask.
• Run commands from the repo root so module settings and tooling config are discovered.
• Respect the repo’s Go toolchain configuration (go.mod + toolchain).
• Prefer repo-pinned tool versions (e.g., tools.go or go.mod tool directives). If tools are missing and no pins exist, ask before installing or adding pins.
• Required tools vary by mode:
  • Quick Snapshot: go, tparse, golangci-lint
  • Interactive Test Loop: lazygotest
  • Coverage Explorer: gocovsh If any required tool is missing, ask to install rather than using substitutes.
• All automated runs must be non-interactive. Only launch TUIs when the user explicitly requests them.
