Go CLI Builder

Overview

This skill provides templates, scripts, and patterns for building production-ready Go command-line tools. It follows established patterns from projects like feedspool-go, feed-to-mastodon, and linkding-to-opml.

The skill generates projects with:

• Cobra for CLI framework
• Viper for configuration management (YAML files with CLI overrides)
• SQLite with a naive migration system
• Logrus for structured logging
• Makefile for common tasks (lint, format, test, build)
• GitHub Actions workflows for CI, tagged releases, and rolling releases
• Strict code formatting with gofumpt and linting with golangci-lint
