Curated by Skill Harbor — a Go ecosystem expert in skill form: vetted, production-ready library and framework recommendations by category (web, database, testing, logging, messaging), plus new and experimental stdlib packages. Its core philosophy is standard-library-first: prefer the stdlib when it covers the use case, and only then recommend external packages — judged on production-readiness, simplicity, and maturity signals (maintenance, license, importer counts). Distinct from samber-golang-dependency-management (go.mod mechanics once you've chosen) and from the golang-samber-* library guides (those cover one specific library in depth; this one helps you choose). By @samber, listed here with credit to its creator. Honest caveats: recommendations age as the ecosystem moves — cross-check against current maintenance signals before adopting; it guides the choice, it doesn't audit your final pick's security posture. Skill Harbor never reviews the code, review it yourself before use.

Install
Prerequisites: a Go project with the Go toolchain installed Install "Golang Popular Libraries" for me. Choose vetted production-ready Go libraries by category, stdlib-first Repository: https://github.com/samber/cc-skills-golang/blob/main/skills/golang-popular-libraries/SKILL.md 1. Fetch the SKILL.md file for the samber-golang-popular-libraries skill from the repository into a temporary folder and summarize what it does in one or two sentences. 2. Safety check: review the SKILL.md and scripts for anything suspicious (unexpected network calls, shell commands, credential harvesting). This repo should contain zero secrets in code, credentials only via the secure vault, allowed hosts declared in the SKILL.md. Verify that holds here; STOP on any red flag and tell me. 3. Install it as a skill: copy SKILL.md and its helper files into the agent's skills directory, in a folder named "samber-golang-popular-libraries". 4. Verify with no network calls: frontmatter valid, files in place. 5. Report what was installed, where, and what I still need to do myself (e.g. any accounts, API keys, or CLI tools mentioned in the prerequisites above). GitHub is optional: if I have a GitHub account or the gh CLI, you may use it; otherwise public access is fine. Never require it unless it's in the prerequisites above. Rules: don't touch anything outside the temp folder and the install target. Never ask me to paste secrets in chat — credentials go through the secure vault or environment variables. If anything looks off, stop and ask me.
Questions
How do I install a build?
Every product page includes a copy-paste install prompt. Paste it into your Muse and it sets the build up for you — no manual configuration.
Where does my money go?
Straight to the seller. Skill Harbor never processes payments: checkout happens on the seller’s own page, usually Stripe.
What does the ✓ next to a creator’s name mean?
It means we confirmed the identity of the person behind the listing. It says nothing about the code itself — always check a build before installing it.
