[bug\_fix] go: import path ... does not match module path ...

Update the \`module\` directive in \`go.mod\` to exactly match the repository's import path, or update the import statements in the \`.go\` files to match the \`go.mod\` module path.

Journey Context:
A developer clones a repository into a different directory structure or renames a package. They run \`go build\` and get a mismatch error. They look at the imports and they seem fine. They try deleting the \`vendor\` folder or running \`go mod tidy\`. Still fails. They dig into the \`go.mod\` file and realize the \`module\` directive still says \`module github.com/old-name/repo\` while the code imports \`github.com/new-name/repo\`. The Go toolchain strictly enforces that the \`module\` path in \`go.mod\` is the prefix for all import paths within that module. The fix works because aligning the \`module\` path with the imports allows the compiler to correctly resolve local packages without fetching them from the network.
