## Implementation Principles

### 1. Idiomatic Go

**DO**:

```go
// Interfaces are small and focused
type Reader interface {
    Read(p []byte) (n int, err error)
}

// Constructors return interfaces
func NewUserService(repo IUserRepository, logger *zap.Logger) IUserService {
    return &userService{repo: repo, logger: logger}
}

// Error handling with early returns
func (s *Service) Process(ctx context.Context, id string) error {
    user, err := s.repo.GetUser(ctx, id)
    if err != nil {
        return fmt.Errorf("failed to get user: %w", err)
    }

    if user.Status != "active" {
        return ErrUserNotActive
    }

    return s.notify(ctx, user)
}

// Table-driven tests
func TestCalculateTotal(t *testing.T) {
    tests := []struct {
        name     string
        items    []Item
        expected decimal.Decimal
        wantErr  bool
    }{
        {
            name:     "empty cart",
            items:    []Item{},
            expected: decimal.Zero,
            wantErr:  false,
        },
    }

    for _, tt := range tests {
        t.Run(tt.name, func(t *testing.T) {
            result, err := CalculateTotal(tt.items)
            if tt.wantErr {
                require.Error(t, err)
                return
            }
            require.NoError(t, err)
            assert.True(t, tt.expected.Equal(result))
        })
    }
}
```

**DON'T**:

```go
// Don't use generic interfaces
type Service interface {
    Do(interface{}) interface{}
}

// Don't ignore errors
result, _ := doSomething()

// Don't use panic for normal errors
if err != nil {
    panic(err)
}
```

### 2. Project Structure

Follow clean architecture with clear layer separation:

```text
project/
├── cmd/
│   └── api/
│       └── main.go              # Entry point
├── internal/
│   ├── handler/                 # HTTP/gRPC handlers
│   ├── service/                 # Business logic
│   ├── repository/              # Data access
│   ├── model/                   # Domain models
│   └── middleware/              # HTTP middleware
├── pkg/                         # Public packages
├── migrations/                  # Database migrations
├── go.mod
└── Makefile
```

### 3. Service Layer Pattern

```go
// Handler: HTTP interface
type UserHandler struct {
    service IUserService
    logger  *zap.Logger
}

func (h *UserHandler) CreateUser(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
    ctx := r.Context()

    var req CreateUserRequest
    if err := json.NewDecoder(r.Body).Decode(&req); err != nil {
        h.logger.Error("invalid request", zap.Error(err))
        writeError(w, http.StatusBadRequest, "Invalid request body")
        return
    }

    user, err := h.service.CreateUser(ctx, req)
    if err != nil {
        h.logger.Error("failed to create user", zap.Error(err))
        writeError(w, http.StatusInternalServerError, "Failed to create user")
        return
    }

    writeJSON(w, http.StatusCreated, user)
}

// Service: Business logic
type userService struct {
    repo     IUserRepository
    bus      IEventBus
    logger   *zap.Logger
}

func (s *userService) CreateUser(ctx context.Context, req CreateUserRequest) (*User, error) {
    if err := s.validateUser(req); err != nil {
        return nil, fmt.Errorf("validation failed: %w", err)
    }

    user := &User{
        ID:    uuid.New(),
        Email: req.Email,
        Name:  req.Name,
    }

    if err := s.repo.Create(ctx, user); err != nil {
        return nil, fmt.Errorf("failed to create user: %w", err)
    }

    event := UserCreatedEvent{UserID: user.ID, Email: user.Email}
    if err := s.bus.Publish(ctx, "users.user_created", event); err != nil {
        s.logger.Warn("failed to publish event", zap.Error(err))
    }

    return user, nil
}
```

### 4. Error Handling

```go
// Define sentinel errors
var (
    ErrUserNotFound   = errors.New("user not found")
    ErrInvalidEmail   = errors.New("invalid email address")
    ErrDuplicateEmail = errors.New("email already exists")
)

// Wrap errors with context
func (s *Service) GetUser(ctx context.Context, id uuid.UUID) (*User, error) {
    user, err := s.repo.GetByID(ctx, id)
    if err != nil {
        if errors.Is(err, sql.ErrNoRows) {
            return nil, ErrUserNotFound
        }
        return nil, fmt.Errorf("failed to query user %s: %w", id, err)
    }
    return user, nil
}
```

### 5. Database Patterns

```go
// Use prepared statements
const getUserQuery = `
    SELECT id, email, name, created_at
    FROM users
    WHERE id = $1
`

func (r *repository) GetByID(ctx context.Context, id uuid.UUID) (*User, error) {
    var user User
    err := r.db.QueryRowContext(ctx, getUserQuery, id).Scan(
        &user.ID, &user.Email, &user.Name, &user.CreatedAt,
    )
    if err != nil {
        if errors.Is(err, sql.ErrNoRows) {
            return nil, ErrUserNotFound
        }
        return nil, fmt.Errorf("failed to query user: %w", err)
    }
    return &user, nil
}

// Use transactions
func (r *repository) Transfer(ctx context.Context, from, to uuid.UUID, amount decimal.Decimal) error {
    tx, err := r.db.BeginTx(ctx, nil)
    if err != nil {
        return fmt.Errorf("failed to begin transaction: %w", err)
    }
    defer tx.Rollback()

    if err := r.debit(ctx, tx, from, amount); err != nil {
        return err
    }

    if err := r.credit(ctx, tx, to, amount); err != nil {
        return err
    }

    if err := tx.Commit(); err != nil {
        return fmt.Errorf("failed to commit transaction: %w", err)
    }

    return nil
}
```

## Code Quality Standards

### Must-Have in Every Implementation

1. **Error Handling**: Every error must be handled or explicitly ignored with comment
2. **Tests**: Unit tests with >80% coverage, integration tests for external dependencies
3. **Documentation**: Public functions have godoc comments
4. **Logging**: Structured logs with correlation IDs for tracing
5. **Context**: All I/O operations accept context.Context as first parameter
6. **Interfaces**: Use small, focused interfaces for abstraction
7. **Validation**: Input validation at API boundaries
8. **Security**: No secrets in logs, validate and sanitize user input
