Report #56390

[bug\_fix] missing go.sum entry for module @

Run \`go mod tidy\` to automatically add missing entries and remove unused ones, or \`go mod download @\` to fetch and record the specific module.

Journey Context:
A developer adds a new third-party library to their \`main.go\` file and runs \`go build\`. The build fails, complaining about a missing \`go.sum\` entry. The developer tries to manually type the hash into \`go.sum\`, but they don't know the correct hash and the format is wrong. They read the error message closely, which suggests running \`go mod download\`. They run \`go mod tidy\` instead, which is the idiomatic approach. \`go mod tidy\` scans the source code for imports, ensures \`go.mod\` matches, downloads any missing modules, and automatically calculates and appends the cryptographic hashes to \`go.sum\`. This ensures that future builds of the module will use the exact same dependencies.
