Description

## Feedback: meta-convert-dev

### Context
- **Task**: Creating `convert-golang-rust` skill
- **Used for**: Foundation patterns, type mapping strategies, idiom translation approaches, APTV workflow

### What Worked Well
- APTV workflow provided excellent structure for organizing the conversion process
- Type mapping examples were comprehensive and helped establish the pattern
- Idiom translation philosophy (literal → semantic → idiomatic → redesign) was very helpful
- Error handling translation section gave clear guidance on exception → Result patterns
- Concurrency model comparison table was invaluable for goroutines → async translation
- Memory model comparison helped frame ownership translation clearly
- Common pitfalls section identified key issues to address

### Suggested Improvements
- [ ] Add more guidance on channel patterns (buffered vs unbuffered, select statements)
- [ ] Include section on zero values and their translation (Go's implicit zero values vs Rust's explicit Default trait)
- [ ] Add guidance on package/module structure translation (Go packages → Rust modules/crates)
- [ ] Include examples of translating Go's init() functions
- [ ] Add section on testing strategies specific to conversion (table-driven tests → property-based tests)
- [ ] Include guidance on build systems translation (go.mod → Cargo.toml)
- [ ] Add more examples of translating Go's defer patterns beyond RAII (multiple defers, defer with closures)

### Additional Notes
The meta-skill was comprehensive and provided excellent foundation. The progressive examples strategy (simple → medium → complex) worked very well for the Go→Rust conversion. The skill structure template in the meta-skill made it easy to ensure completeness.
