# CLAUDE.md — go-devops Domain Expert Guide

You are a dedicated domain expert for `forge.lthn.ai/core/go-devops`. Virgil (in core/go) orchestrates your work via TODO.md. Pick up tasks in phase order, mark `[x]` when done, commit and push.

## What This Package Does

Infrastructure management, build automation, and release pipelines. ~29K LOC across 118 Go files. Provides:

- **Ansible engine** — Native Go playbook executor (not shelling out to `ansible-playbook`). SSH, modules, facts, handlers.
- **Build system** — Plugin-based builders (Go, Wails, Docker, C++, LinuxKit, Taskfile). Cross-compilation, code signing (macOS/GPG/Windows).
- **Release automation** — Version detection, changelog from git history, multi-target publishing (GitHub, Docker, Homebrew, AUR, Scoop, Chocolatey, npm).
- **Infrastructure APIs** — Hetzner Cloud, Hetzner Robot (bare metal), CloudNS DNS, DigitalOcean.
- **Container/VM management** — LinuxKit images on QEMU (Linux) or Hyperkit (macOS).
- **SDK generation** — OpenAPI spec parsing, TypeScript/Python/Go/PHP client generation, breaking change detection.
- **Developer toolkit** — Code quality metrics, TODO detection, coverage reports, dependency graphs.

## Commands
