Renovate's Go updates run go get but not go mod tidy. When they bump indirect modules (here golang.org/x/sync, x/term, x/tools), go.sum lacks the entries the tool dependencies (gotestsum, gocover-cobertura) need, and CI fails on "missing go.sum entry" before running any test. PR #6 hit this and needed a manual go mod tidy.

Add "postUpdateOptions": ["gomodTidy"] to renovate.json so Renovate tidies the module itself.
