Temporal Go SDK (temporal-golang-pro)

Overview

Expert-level guide for building resilient, scalable, and deterministic distributed systems using the Temporal Go SDK. This skill transforms vague orchestration requirements into production-grade Go implementations, focusing on durable execution, strict determinism, and enterprise-scale worker configuration.

When to Use This Skill

  • Designing Distributed Systems: When building microservices that require durable state and reliable orchestration.
  • Implementing Complex Workflows: Using the Go SDK to handle long-running processes (days/months) or complex Saga patterns.
  • Optimizing Performance: When workers need fine-tuned concurrency, mTLS security, or custom interceptors.
  • Ensuring Reliability: Implementing idempotent activities, graceful error handling, and sophisticated retry policies.
  • Maintenance & Evolution: Versioning running workflows or performing zero-downtime worker updates.

Do not use this skill when

  • Using Temporal with other SDKs (Python, Java, TypeScript) - refer to their specific -pro skills.
  • The task is a simple request/response without durability or coordination needs.
  • High-level design without implementation (use workflow-orchestration-patterns).

Step-by-Step Guide
