Overview

Package errconst provides a go/analysis analyzer banning every use of errors.New and fmt.Errorf — called directly or referenced as a value — in favor of the gomatic Go standard's sentinel error constants (errs.Const). Wrapping goes through errs.Const.With, so consumer code never touches fmt.Errorf at all; only exempt packages — always including the sentinel mechanism itself, github.com/gomatic/go-error — may. The analyzer is a denylist on those two constructors; enforcement that package-level var sentinels become constants is covered by the sibling globalvar analyzer.
