Reviewer Prompt

Apply concurrency control mechanisms with precise scope to prevent both race conditions and unnecessary blocking. Use appropriate synchronization tools (mutex, channels, errgroup) only around critical sections that actually require protection.

Common patterns to follow:

  1. Protect shared state with minimal lock scope: ```go // Good - minimal mutex scope mux.Lock() // Only protect the shared state modification project.UpdateConfig() mux.Unlock()

// Bad - overly broad mutex scope mux.Lock() defer mux.Unlock() // Blocking concurrent operations unnecessarily runProviders()


2. Use errgroup for concurrent error handling:
```go
eg := errgroup.Group{}
for _, container := range containers {
    container := container // Capture loop variable
    eg.Go(func() error {
        return processContainer(ctx, container)
    })
}
return eg.Wait()
  1. Guard against race conditions in shared data structures: ```go // Bad - race condition on map opts := map[string]Options{} for _, svc := range services { go func() { opts[svc.Name] = buildOptions() }() }

// Good - protected access var mu sync.Mutex for _, svc := range services { svc := svc go func() { mu.Lock() opts[svc.Name] = buildOptions() mu.Unlock() }() } ```
