Golang Language Standards

Priority: P0 (CRITICAL)

Guidelines

• Fmt: Run gofmt or goimports on save.
• Naming: Use camelCase for internal, PascalCase for exported.
• Packages: Short, lowercase, singular, no underscores (e.g., net/http not net_http).
• Interfaces: Define where used, not where implemented. Small interfaces (1-2 methods).
• Errors: Return error as last return value. Handle immediately.
• Variables: Short names for small scope (i, ctx), descriptive for large scope.
• Slices: Prefer slices over arrays. Use make() for capacity.
• Const: Use iota for enums.
