It should be doable with just go code and the windows package.. CreateFile can do the same work that freopen is doing.
The *CreateFile* <https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/fileapi/nf-fileapi-createfilea> function enables a process to get a handle to its console's input buffer and active screen buffer, even if STDIN and STDOUT have been redirected. To open a handle to a console's input buffer, specify the CONIN$ value in a call to *CreateFile*. Specify the CONOUT$ value in a call to *CreateFile* to open a handle to a console's active screen buffer. *CreateFile* enables you to specify the read/write access of the handle that it return.
