Security Notes
The template demonstrates and strongly enforces security best practices including comprehensive input validation and sanitization, proper error handling, context cancellation, and the use of environment variables for secrets. It explicitly warns against common pitfalls like hardcoding secrets or unsafe SQL string concatenation. For HTTP transport, it mandates TLS, authentication, and rate limiting. The `internal/resources/files.go` includes path cleaning. The score isn't 10 because a template relies on developer adherence to its guidelines for true security, but it provides an excellent foundation and strong guidance.
