# JetBrains/go-modern-guidelines

> A set of guidelines for AI coding agents that help them write modern Go: the agent detects the Go version from go.mod and uses idioms and stdlib features available up to that version.

- Magnitude: 1.3 out of 10 — Steady
- Stars: 3,674 total · +10 stars today, ≈ 16 by evening

## Useful for

- Install the plugin in Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or Junie to generate modern Go
- Make the agent replace legacy loops and checks with slices.Contains, max and cmp.Or
- Install the skill via npx skills add for OpenCode and other agents

## Why it’s here

- 10 stars so far today, about 16 expected by the end of the day.
- Interest is fading: the two-day pace is 48% of the previous week and a half.
- GitHub Trending this month: #12, +2,850 stars.

## Star trust

Star growth looks organic.

Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer.

## Numbers

- Forks: 122
- Issues and pull requests: 33
- Watchers: 25
- Average over the last week: 10 per day
- Usual pace: 57 per day
- Stars in the last hour (measured): 5

Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score.
Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast.
Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
