8,958 commits, 290 contributors, heavyweight Go infrastructure. Key findings: - HSM framework: type-safe state transitions, source validation - CHASM: mutable vs immutable contexts enforced at type level - goro.Handle: predates CockroachDB's Handle by 3.5 years (same solution) - softassert: production assertions that log, don't crash - 566 dynamic config settings with namespace-scoped resolution - uber/fx for DI (justified by genuine service graph complexity) - Domain error types → gRPC mapping (not generic wrapping) PR discussions show: - HSM (#5494): 'not final, step in the right direction' — explicit iteration - CHASM (#6987): separate contexts to make mutation impossible in read paths - goro.Handle (#1892): born from double-close panic, reviewer rule: 'if expert asks, code needs comment'
Patterns vs Official Guidelines
Divergence analyses comparing our extracted-from-source patterns against official coding guidelines.

Philosophy
Official guides tell you what to do. Source patterns show what mature code actually does. When they diverge, neither is wrong — they serve different audiences and optimize for different things.
This repo documents where they agree, where they differ, and why.
