go-cli-application-architecture
Design and review maintainable Go CLI application boundaries, package layout, dependency direction, command factories, configuration ownership, adapters, services, storage, and composition roots. Use when starting a multi-command CLI, extracting business logic from Cobra, untangling globals, adding external dependencies, or deciding what belongs under cmd, internal, or reusable packages.

# Go CLI Application Architecture
Organize around dependency direction and testable behavior, not a copied folder
template. Keep CLI framework code as an adapter around application services.
## Core Workflow
1. Identify commands, domain actions, external effects, and shared policies.
2. Separate parsing/rendering from application orchestration and adapters.
3. Define interfaces at the consumer that needs substitution.
4. Construct dependencies once in a composition root and pass them explicitly.
5. Keep configuration immutable after validation; give mutable state a dedicated store.
6. Record ownership and cleanup for every acquired resource and background task.
7. Test inward from pure logic to adapters and one assembled executable path.
