Thanks! We still have a long way to go and a pretty extensive roadmap.

> Is there a general way to apply/remove/act on taint in Go checkers? I may not be digging deeply enough but it seems like the example just uses some `unsafeVars` map that is made with a magic `isUserInputSource` method. It's hard for me to immediately tell what the capabilities there are, I bet I'm missing a bit.

Assuming you're looking at the guide [1], the `isUserInputSource` is just a partial example and not a magic method (we probably should have used a better example there).

The AST for each node along with the context are exposed in the `analysis.Pass` object [2]. We don't have an example for taint analysis, but here's an example [3] of state tracking that can be used to achieve this. This is a little tedious at the moment and you'll have to do the heavy-lifting in the Go code — but this is on our roadmap to improve. We want to expose a lot more helpers to make doing things like taint analysis easily.

Here's another idea [4] we're exploring to make the YAML interface more powerful: adding support for utilities (like entropy calculation) that you can call and perform a comparison.
