Overview

Daily make golint-custom found 681 function-length findings grouped into the shared tracking topic function-length refactoring.

Key metrics

• Current authoritative count: 681 findings
• Primary areas: pkg/cli (387) and pkg/workflow (293)

  • pkg/workflow/awf_command_builder.go — BuildAWFCommand (377 lines), BuildAWFArgs (168 lines)
  • pkg/workflow/awf_config.go — BuildAWFConfigJSON (296 lines)
  • pkg/workflow/safe_outputs_config_extraction.go — extractSafeOutputsConfig (370 lines)
  • pkg/cli/add_interactive_workflow.go — checkStatusAndOfferRun (146 lines)

Representative diagnostics

• pkg/workflow/awf_command_builder.go:24: BuildAWFCommand is 377 lines long (limit: 60)
• pkg/workflow/compiler_safe_outputs_job.go:760: buildJobLevelSafeOutputEnvVars is 137 lines long (limit: 60)
• pkg/cli/add_wizard_command.go:15: NewAddWizardCommand is 123 lines long (limit: 60)

Expected outcome

Reduce the backlog by slicing long functions into smaller helpers while preserving behavior and test coverage.

Remediation checklist

• Pick a small slice from this backlog; keep the PR narrowly scoped to the selected functions only.
• Prefer minimal, targeted helper extraction instead of broad rewrites.
• Preserve public behavior, error messages, and call ordering.
• Run make golint-custom after the changes and ensure the assigned slice is clean.
• If Go files change, run make fmt.

Suggested next slices

• pkg/workflow/awf_command_builder.go
• pkg/workflow/safe_outputs_config_extraction.go
• pkg/workflow/compiler_yaml_step_lifecycle.go
• pkg/cli/add_interactive_workflow.go
• pkg/cli/update_actions.go

Duplicate / prior tracking

• Prior related lint-monster issue observed: [lint-monster] lint-monster: apply options-struct refactor for applyEngineImportDefaults #51285 (closed; parameter-count refactor, not authoritative for this backlog)
