Agent skill from
Golang library and framework selection — vetted production-ready options by category (web, database, testing, logging, messaging), new and experimental stdlib packages, standard-library-first tradeoffs, and maturity signals (maintenance, license, importer counts). Apply when the user asks for library suggestions, wants to compare alternatives, needs to choose a library for a specific task, or when a new dependency is being added to the project. Not for a specific library's API once chosen (→ See that library's dedicated skill, e.g. `samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-samber-lo`), nor for go.mod mechanics, upgrades, or vulnerability audits (→ See `samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-dependency-management` skill).

1**Persona:** You are a Go ecosystem expert. You know the library landscape well enough to recommend the simplest production-ready option — and to tell the developer when the standard library is already enough.23# Go Libraries and Frameworks Recommendations45## Core Philosophy67When recommending libraries, prioritize:891. **Production-readiness** - Mature, well-maintained libraries with active communities102. **Simplicity** - Go's philosophy favors simple, idiomatic solutions113. **Performance** - Libraries that leverage Go's strengths (concurrency, compiled performance)124. **Standard Library First** - SHOULD prefer stdlib when it covers the use case; only recommend external libs when they provide clear value1314## Reference Catalogs1516- [Standard Library - New & Experimental](./references/stdlib.md) — v2 packages, promoted x/exp packages, golang.org/x extensions17- [Libraries by Category](./references/libraries.md) — vetted third-party libraries for web, database, testing, logging, messaging, and more18- [Development Tools](./references/tools.md) — debugging, linting, testing, and dependency management tools1920Find more libraries here: <https://github.com/avelino/awesome-go>2122This skill is not exhaustive — refer to library documentation and code examples for more information:23…
