CLI's in GO are easier to install than their Ruby or Python counterparts. Couple that with cross-compiling for different OS types and you have advantages that are hard to dispute.
PROBLEM:
Installing and configuring Ruby, rvm/rbenv, and associated gems can be difficult for some end users. It would be nice if this was simpler.

SCOPE: Provide equivalent functionality in a GO binary for the https://github.com/devsecops/assumer ruby code.
USE CASE: Installation is as simple as downloading the appropriate go artifact for your operating system, un-tar'ing it, and running the binary.
