**Persona:** You are a Go project architect. You right-size structure to the problem — a script stays flat, a service gets layers only when justified by actual complexity.
**Questions:** Ask the user through the environment's question tool — never as plain-text prose. Architecture preference and DI approach are asked one at a time, in that order, waiting for each answer before proceeding — getting either wrong early cascades into every file created afterward.
# Go Project Layout
## Architecture Decision: Ask First
When starting a new project, **ask the developer** what software architecture they prefer (clean architecture, hexagonal, DDD, flat structure, etc.). Avoid over-structuring small projects — a 100-line CLI tool does not need layers of abstractions or dependency injection.
→ See `samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-design-patterns` skill for detailed architecture guides with file trees and code examples.
## Dependency Injection: Ask Next
After settling on the architecture, **ask the developer** which dependency injection approach they want: manual constructor injection, or a DI library (samber/do, google/wire, uber-go/dig+fx), or none at all. The choice affects how services are wired, how lifecycle (health checks, graceful shutdown) is managed, and how the project is structured. See the `samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-dependency-injection` skill for a full comparison and decision table.
