Go Concurrency Patterns

A solid reference for Go concurrency primitives when you're wiring up goroutines, channels, and worker pools. It covers the standard patterns: managing goroutine lifecycles, using sync primitives, context for cancellation, and the usual pipeline architectures. The implementation playbook promises detailed examples, which is helpful when you're debugging race conditions or setting up graceful shutdown. It's scoped tightly to concurrency, so don't expect general Go advice. Useful if you're past the basics but still hitting the common pitfalls with channel deadlocks or leaky goroutines. The clarity around when not to use it is refreshing.

Implementing graceful shutdown

Do not use this skill when

The task is unrelated to go concurrency patterns
You need a different domain or tool outside this scope

Instructions

Clarify goals, constraints, and required inputs.
Apply relevant best practices and validate outcomes.
Provide actionable steps and verification.
If detailed examples are required, open resources/implementation-playbook.md.

Limitations

Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above.
Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review.
Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.
