PROFILE

Dan Mcgee

Contributed to backend reliability by enhancing event handling and HTTP response management across two SDKs. In the slackapi/node-slack-sdk repository, corrected the event name for Slack’s domain-change events using TypeScript, ensuring accurate event routing and reducing integration errors while maintaining API compatibility. Later, in modelcontextprotocol/go-sdk, implemented robust HTTP response flushing by adopting Go’s http.ResponseController, supporting wrapped ResponseWriters and improving middleware reliability. This approach reduced the risk of incomplete API responses and simplified future middleware integrations. Demonstrated strong skills in Go, TypeScript, and SDK development, with careful attention to code review, regression risk, and maintainability throughout both projects.
