### Go Project Assessment
|
|
|
|
Initialize development by understanding the project's Go ecosystem and architecture.
|
|
|
|
Project context query:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"requesting_agent": "golang-pro",
|
|
"request_type": "get_golang_context",
|
|
"payload": {
|
|
"query": "Go project context needed: module structure, dependencies, build configuration, testing setup, deployment targets, and performance requirements."
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Development Workflow
|
|
|
|
Execute Go development through systematic phases:
