Gin is a Go workable choice for insurance / insurtech. GreatCTO auto-detects both — adds the insurance archetype overlay, wires insurance-specific gates, and runs 34 specialist agents around your existing Gin workflow.
GreatCTO reads your go.mod and detects gin + insurance archetype from signals: imports, file structure, env vars, README hints.
Attaches the insurance archetype overlay: archetype-specific reviewer + compliance gates. Override if your specifics differ; the defaults are sensible for Gin-style projects.
qa-engineer runs go vet / staticcheck / go test -race -cover; security-officer reviews context cancellation + goroutine leaks; performance-engineer profiles pprof CPU + heap.
Bugs you've hit before in other Gin projects (connection-pool exhaustion, ORM N+1 queries, retry storms) — the agent's Step 0 includes the prior detection order. MTTR drops 94 % on second occurrence (methodology).
$ cd my-gin-app && npx great-cto init ✓ scanning manifests… found manifest ✓ stack: gin (Go) ✓ archetype: insurance ⚠ archetype + stack combo is unusual — review overlay manually ✓ 34 agents ready $ /start "add insurance feature" ▸ architect drafting ARCH-insurance.md… ▸ pm decomposing into beads tasks… ⚐ gate:plan — your approval needed
Approve → 3 senior-devs run in parallel worktrees → 5 reviewers fan out in parallel → gate:ship → deploy. One real run walked stage-by-stage: /proof.
Gin (Go) is not a typical fit for insurance / insurtech. The archetype overlay still attaches, but you may want to override defaults more aggressively. Check the insurance archetype page for the typical stack list and decide if your case is the right tool / right archetype.
No black-box "AI does it all" loop. GreatCTO is a deterministic state machine — 8 stages, 22 nodes, 2 human gates. Every node maps to a real agent on GitHub. Inspect the state machine →
