go-to-protobuf reads the whole project, and downloads dependencies I think. It fails to download dependencies but carries on if it can't read the whole project - and then you see this kind of error.

Modifications

Make lint-go a dependency of this step of codegen. This will cause the linter to cry at you first with relevant words that lead to something that you can fix.

Verification

Bad code now causes make codegen to tell you what to fix.
