Report #98696

[bug\_fix] build constraints exclude all Go files in /home/agent/app/pkg/sys

Use the modern build-tag syntax exactly: \`//go:build linux && amd64\` on its own line at the top of the file, followed by a blank line before \`package sys\`. Verify the active target with \`go env GOOS GOARCH\` and list matched files with \`go list -f '\{\{.GoFiles\}\}'\`.

Journey Context:
You add an OS-specific helper file tagged \`//go:build linux\` and the next day a colleague on macOS reports \`undefined: sys.ReadProcStat\`. You check the file and the tag looks right, but you accidentally wrote \`//go:build linux,amd64\` when you meant \`&&\`, or you left the old \`// \+build linux\` line above the new one and Go 1.17\+ ignored the file because the constraints disagreed. You read the compiler error, confirm the file is excluded, fix the build constraint to a single valid \`//go:build\` line, and the package compiles on both platforms. The fix works because Go 1.17 made \`//go:build\` the authoritative constraint; malformed or contradictory tags silently exclude files from the build.
