Deep, partial matching of nested structs, slices, maps, and pointers with gstruct — MatchAllFields/MatchFields/Fields, MatchAllElements/MatchElements/Elements (idFn), MatchAllKeys/MatchKeys/Keys, PointTo, and the IgnoreExtras/IgnoreMissing/IgnoreUnexportedExtras/AllowDuplicates options, plus Ignore()/Reject(). Use when asserting against large or deeply nested data structures where you want to apply a different matcher to each field, element, or key.

From the source SKILL.md

gstruct builds composite matchers that apply a separate matcher to each field of a struct, each element of a slice, each key of a map, or the target of a pointer. It is the tool for fuzzy-matching large, deeply nested values. Docs: <https://onsi.github.io/gomega/#gstruct-testing-complex-data-types>.
