Database access is where most Go services spend their complexity budget. Get connection management, transactions, and query patterns right.
Go Database is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the security-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/go-database/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
When to invoke it: Use when: "database access", "SQL query", "connection pool", "transactions", "database migration", "sqlc", "GORM", "ent", "prepared statement", "repository pattern". Do NOT use for: in-memory data structures (use go-coding-standards), security aspects of SQL (use go-security-audit), or performance profiling of queries (use go-performance-review).
The Go Database Claude Code skill is built for security engineers, penetration testers, DevSecOps practitioners, and development teams hardening codebases and infrastructure. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 116,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).

For the full experience including quality scoring and one-click install features for each skill — upgrade to Pro.
SKILL.md from the source repository to ~/.claude/skills/go-database/SKILL.md and restart Claude Code. Both flows are detailed at claudskills.com/install/.SKILL.md file that lives under ~/.claude/skills/<name>/ and tells the Claude Code CLI agent how to perform a specific task (instructions, prompts, allowed tools). Skills are auto-discovered at session start. Go Database is one of 67,000+ skills indexed in the open ClaudSkills catalog, classified under the Security category.
