Golang Pkg Go Dev
This wraps godig, a CLI and MCP server that queries the pkg.go.dev API, so you can ask Claude about any Go package without leaving the conversation. It handles the questions gopls can't answer: which versions exist, who imports a package, does it have CVEs, show me the API docs for a library I haven't added yet. The skill is opinionated about scope (it explicitly tells you to use golang-gopls for local symbols and golang-dependency-management for upgrades) which is helpful when you're working in a larger skill library. Start with the overview command for a compact summary, then drill into symbol doc or examples when you need specifics. The full package doc commands are large, so scope them carefully.

Dependencies: godig — go install github.com/samber/godig/cmd/godig@latest (or use a registered godig MCP server / the hosted instance instead).
godig queries the pkg.go.dev API. Use it to answer questions about Go packages and modules: docs, symbols, versions, importers and vulnerabilities. It works as a CLI and as an MCP server, and all operations are read-only and need no authentication.
When to use this skill
Trigger on questions like:
- "What versions of github.com/samber/lo are available?"
- "Does golang.org/x/text have known vulnerabilities?"
- "Show me the docs / symbols for package X."
- "Which packages import X?"
- "Search Go packages for Y."
Choosing between godig, gopls, Context7, and govulncheck
