Govulncheck is one of the Go ecosystem's best features, and that's saying something!

I made a GitHub action that alerts if a PR adds a vulnerable call, which I think pairs nicely with the advice to only actually fix vulnerable calls.

You can also just run the stock tool in your GHA, but I liked being able to get annotations and comments in the PR.

Incidentally, the repo has dependabot enabled with auto-merge for those PRs, which is IMO the best you can do for JS codebases.

Govulncheck is good, but not without false-positives. Sometimes it raises "unfixable" vulnerabilities and there's still no way to exclude vulnerabilties by CVE number.

I haven't experienced that (that I know of), do you have an example handy?
