Static Analysis

When to Use

• Security or correctness checks are requested, or to reproduce CI static-analysis failures locally.

Rules

• Use repository-standard tooling where configured.
• Summarize findings by severity and provide minimal remediation steps.
• Avoid suppressing issues unless instructed.

Commands

• go vet -v ./...
• gosec ./...
• govulncheck ./...

Cross-Platform Vet

CI runs vet on six OS/arch combos. Key examples:

• GOOS=linux GOARCH=amd64 go vet -v ./...
• GOOS=darwin GOARCH=arm64 go vet -v ./...
• GOOS=windows GOARCH=amd64 go vet -v ./...

Output

• Findings grouped by tool and severity.
• For each: path:line, plain-language meaning, and a minimal fix suggestion.
• Verification: commands to re-run the specific tool.
