Go Jsonnet
This an implementation of Jsonnet in pure Go
go-jsonnet is a pure Go implementation of the Jsonnet data templating language, which extends JSON with variables, functions, imports, and a standard library so you can generate complex configuration safely. Instead of hand-maintaining massive JSON files, you write concise, reusable templates that evaluate to JSON or YAML, with deterministic semantics and rich error messages. The repository ships both an embeddable VM for Go programs and a command-line interpreter, making it easy to integrate templating into build systems, CLIs, and services. Import paths and custom resolvers let you structure large configuration trees across directories or remote sources, while top-level arguments and external variables parameterize builds per environment. Native functions can be registered from Go to expose domain-specific helpers without forking the language. Tooling such as a formatter and linter-friendly errors encourages clean, consistent templates that scale across teams. -

Interactsh
An OOB interaction gathering server and client library
Interactsh is an open-source tool for detecting out-of-band interactions. It is a tool designed to detect vulnerabilities that cause external interactions. Interactsh Cli client requires go1.17+ to install successfully. interactsh-client with -sf, -session-file flag can be used store/read the current session information from user defined file which is useful to resume the same session to poll the interactions even after the client gets stopped or closed. Running the interactsh-client in verbose mode (v) to see the whole request and response, along with an output file to analyze afterwards. Using the server flag, interactsh-client can be configured to connect with a self-hosted Interactsh server, this flag accepts single or multiple server separated by comma. Default servers are subject to change/rotate/down at any time, thus we recommend using a self-hosted interactsh server if you are experiencing issues with the default server. -

Vegeta
HTTP load testing tool and library. It's over 9000!
Vegeta is a versatile HTTP load testing tool built out of a need to drill HTTP services with a constant request rate. It can be used both as a command line utility and a library. You can install Vegeta using the Homebrew package manager on Mac OS X. Both the library and the CLI are versioned with SemVer v2.0.0. After v8.0.0, the two components are versioned separately to better isolate breaking changes to each. CLI releases are tagged with cli/vMAJOR.MINOR.PATCH and published on the Github releases page. As for the library, new versions are tagged with both lib/vMAJOR.MINOR.PATCH and vMAJOR.MINOR.PATCH. The latter tag is required for compatibility with go mod. The JSON format makes integration with programs that produce targets dynamically easier. Each target is one JSON object in its own line. The method and url fields are required. If present, the body field must be base64 encoded. The generated JSON Schema defines the format in detail. -

go-toml
Go library for the TOML file format
Go library for the TOML format. This library supports TOML v1.0.0. Full API, examples, and implementation notes are available in the Go documentation. As much as possible, this library is designed to behave similarly as the standard library's encoding/json. While go-toml favors usability, it is written with performance in mind. Most operations should not be shockingly slow. Decoder can be set to "strict mode", which makes it error when some parts of the TOML document was not present in the target structure. This is a great way to check for typos. When most decoding errors occur, go-toml returns DecodeError), which contains a human readable contextualized version of the error. TOML supports native local date/times. It allows to represent a given date, time, or date-time without relation to a timezone or offset. To support this use-case, go-toml provides LocalDate, LocalTime, and LocalDateTime. -

AndroidLibXrayLite
Lightweight Android library that bundles the Xray networking core
AndroidLibXrayLite is a lightweight Android library that bundles the Xray networking core as an embeddable component for apps. Its purpose is to provide a minimal, size-optimized build of the native core with a clear Java/Kotlin interface to start, stop, and configure network tunnels. By exposing the core as an AAR with per-ABI artifacts, it keeps application footprints small while supporting common CPU architectures. The library abstracts process management and log streaming so host apps can control lifecycles and capture diagnostics. It’s particularly useful for developers who want to integrate secure, rule-based proxying into their own Android apps without re-implementing the native glue. With a focus on stability and easy updates, it shortens the path from concept to a working in-app networking stack. -

Caire
Content aware image resize library
Caire is a content aware image resize library based on Seam Carving for Content-Aware Image Resizing paper. An energy map (edge detection) is generated from the provided image. The algorithm tries to find the least important parts of the image taking into account the lowest energy values. Using a dynamic programming approach the algorithm will generate individual seams across the image from top to down, or from left to right (depending on the horizontal or vertical resizing) and will allocate for each seam a custom value, the least important pixels having the lowest energy cost and the most important ones having the highest cost. We traverse the image from the second row to the last row and compute the cumulative minimum energy for all possible connected seams for each entry. The minimum energy level is calculated by summing up the current pixel value with the lowest value of the neighboring pixels obtained from the previous row. -

env
A simple and zero-dependencies library to parse environment variables
Parse environment variables to structs in Go. In Go, it’s dead simple to get the value from an environment variable. If you have a type that is not supported out of the box by the lib, you are able to use (or define) and pass custom parsers (and their associated reflect.Type) to the env.ParseWithFuncs() function. Env supports by default anything that implements the TextUnmarshaler interface. That includes things like time.Time for example. The upside is that depending on the format you need, you don't need to change anything. The downside is that if you do need time in another format, you'll need to create your own type. By default, slice types will split the environment value on ,; you can change this behavior by setting the envSeparator tag. If you set the envExpand tag, environment variables (either in ${var} or $var format) in the string will be replaced according with the actual value of the variable. -

Go Container Registry
Go library and CLIs for working with container registries
go-containerregistry is a Go library (with companion tools) for interacting with container images and registries using OCI/Docker formats. It provides primitives to read, write, mutate, sign, and copy images and indexes across registries without shelling out to Docker. High-level utilities like crane and gcrane offer convenient CLIs for everyday tasks—listing tags, copying images between registries, flattening, creating tarballs, and more. The library handles authentication via a pluggable keychain system that understands Docker config files, credential helpers, and environment credentials. It understands multiple on-disk layouts (tarball, OCI layout, remote) and lets you transform images in memory by adding or rebasing layers, adjusting config, and annotating manifests. Because everything is regular Go code, it’s straightforward to embed in CI/CD systems, policy engines, and bespoke supply-chain tooling. -

Amazon EC2 Instance Selector
A CLI tool and go library which recommends instance types
A CLI tool and go library which recommends instance types based on resource criteria like vcpus and memory. There are over 270 different instance types available on EC2 which can make the process of selecting appropriate instance types difficult. Instance Selector helps you select compatible instance types for your application to run on. The command-line interface can be passed resource criteria like vcpus, memory, network performance, and much more and then return the available, matching instance types. If you are using spot instances to save on costs, it is a best practice to use multiple instances types within your auto-scaling group (ASG) to ensure your application doesn't experience downtime due to one instance type being interrupted. Instance Selector will help to find a set of instance types that your application can run on. -

mo - Monads
Monads and popular FP abstractions, powered by Go 1.18+ Generics
mo - Monads is a functional programming utility library for Go that introduces monads and related abstractions using modern Go generics. The project brings well-known FP constructs such as Option, Result, Either, Future, IO, and Task into the Go ecosystem to help developers write safer and more composable code. By leveraging generics introduced in Go 1.18+, the library provides strong type safety without relying on reflection or code generation. It is particularly useful for managing nullable values, error propagation, asynchronous workflows, and functional pipelines in a predictable way. The design draws inspiration from languages like Scala, Rust, and TypeScript FP libraries, making it familiar to developers with functional backgrounds. Overall, samber/mo enables a more declarative and expressive programming style in Go while remaining lightweight and dependency-free. -

waybackurls
Fetch all the URLs that the Wayback Machine knows about for a domain
waybackurls is a command-line reconnaissance tool that retrieves historical URLs associated with a given domain by querying the Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine. It accepts input domains via standard input and outputs a list of discovered URLs, making it easy to integrate into pipelines and automated workflows. The tool is particularly valuable in security research, bug bounty hunting, and penetration testing, as it uncovers endpoints that may no longer be publicly linked but still exist on servers. By leveraging archived data, waybackurls helps identify hidden attack surfaces, legacy APIs, and forgotten resources that could be vulnerable. Its design is intentionally simple and efficient, focusing on delivering large volumes of URLs quickly with minimal configuration. The output can be combined with other tools for further analysis, such as filtering parameters or probing endpoints. -

kafka-go
Kafka library in Go
We rely on both Go and Kafka a lot at Segment. Unfortunately, the state of the Go client libraries for Kafka at the time of this writing was not ideal. sarama, which is by far the most popular but is quite difficult to work with. It is poorly documented, the API exposes low level concepts of the Kafka protocol, and it doesn't support recent Go features like contexts. It also passes all values as pointers which causes large numbers of dynamic memory allocations, more frequent garbage collections, and higher memory usage. confluent-kafka-go is a cgo based wrapper around librdkafka, which means it introduces a dependency to a C library on all Go code that uses the package. It has much better documentation than sarama but still lacks support for Go contexts. goka is a more recent Kafka client for Go which focuses on a specific usage pattern. It provides abstractions for using Kafka as a message passing bus between services rather than an ordered log of events. -
