build

Production-grade Go CLI patterns, automated release workflows with Release Please, versioned docs, and coverage enforcement for DevSecOps build pipelines.

Design CLI commands that work independently and compose well for automation. Orchestrator pattern coordinates, subcommands execute discrete tasks.

Implement idiomatic Kubernetes operations with label selectors, strategic merge patches, and proper error handling for production-grade CLI tooling.

Choose the right Go CLI framework for Kubernetes-native tools. Decision matrix compares Cobra, urfave/cli, and Kong for ecosystem alignment and features.

Build Kubernetes-native CLIs in Go with type safety, testability, and complex orchestration logic for deployment tools and cluster automation.

Integrate Go CLIs with Kubernetes using client-go. Automatic config detection works on laptops, CI runners, and cluster pods with minimal RBAC setup.

Automate version management and changelog generation with smart builds. Only build changed components using GitHub App tokens and release-please integration.

Production-ready templates for CONTRIBUTING.md, SECURITY.md, and GitHub issue forms. OpenSSF Best Practices Badge compliant, copy-paste ready, with realistic SLAs.

Package Go CLIs as minimal secure containers with distroless base images. Static binaries, non-root users, read-only filesystems for production.

Configure automated versioning with release-please. Set up semantic versioning, changelog generation, and monorepo support using GitHub App token authentication.

Build confidence with comprehensive CLI testing. Unit tests catch logic bugs with fakes, integration tests verify API contracts, E2E tests validate workflows.

Deploy version-tagged documentation alongside releases using MkDocs Material, mike, and release-please for automated version alignment with software builds.
