We have getrandom at home
The crypto source in Go is great, no complaints there. Lints like gosec even recommend using it when generating crypto entropy.

Goast: Generic static analysis for Go Abstract Syntax Tree by OPA/Rego
Various static analysis tools are available for the Go language, and existing static analysis tools can check general best practices. For example, gosec is a tool to check secure Go coding, and I use it myself. However, coding rules in software development are not only based on best practices, but can also be software- or team-specific. For example
