Is security built into the Go Docker templates?

Absolutely. The skill implements non-root user execution, minimal attack surfaces via distroless images, and provides commands for security scanning with tools like Trivy.

Does it support different CPU architectures?

Yes, the skill includes templates and commands for multi-platform builds using Docker Buildx to support both amd64 and arm64 architectures.

How does this skill optimize Go image size?

It utilizes multi-stage builds to compile the binary in a feature-rich environment and then transfers only the final binary into a minimal base image like scratch or distroless.

Can I use this for complex local development?

Yes, it provides Docker Compose configurations that include database services, health checks, and volume management to mirror production environments locally.
