Follow-up to #3006:
- provider-conformance: build each harness to a temp binary and run that
instead of 'go run'. 'go run' launches the harness as a child it doesn't
kill on context cancellation, so a timed-out harness (which starts local
services) could be orphaned and outlive the run. Running the built binary
makes the per-run timeout actually terminate the work.
- contract test: skip under -short, and use 'go build ./...' instead of
'go test ./...' (the contract is that the generated service builds). This
keeps the default unit-test suite from shelling out to the toolchain and
the network on every run.

* test(harness): read agent plan from the scoped store
The store-scoping change moved an agent's plan from the default table
key agent/{name}/plan to its own table (database "agent", table {name},
key "plan"). The plan-delegate harness tests still read the old key and
failed with 'not found'; read through store.Scope(mem, "agent", name)
like the agent does.
* docs: orient agents-first across README, landing, and docs overview
Lead with agents (then services and flows), surface MCP + A2A as the
interop story, and frame agents as services. Landing hero and feature
grid reordered agents-first with an A2A gateway card.
* v6: module path go-micro.dev/v6, TLS secure by default, NewService
Cut v6. Three breaking changes, bundled so the major bump is paid once:
- Module path go-micro.dev/v5 -> go-micro.dev/v6 across all imports + go.mod.
- TLS verification on by default (was off). MICRO_TLS_SECURE removed;
MICRO_TLS_INSECURE=true opts out for self-signed/dev.
- micro.NewService(name, opts...) is the canonical service constructor,
symmetric with NewAgent/NewFlow; micro.New kept as a deprecated alias;
the old name-less NewService(opts...) removed. Generators emit NewService.
Also ports the JWT auth token provider in-module (go-micro.dev/v6/auth/jwt/token
on golang-jwt/jwt/v5), dropping the v5-pinned github.com/micro/plugins/v5/auth/jwt
and the deprecated dgrijalva/jwt-go.
Docs/README/landing updated to v6 and @latest; v5->v6 migration guide added;
CHANGELOG cut as [6.0.0]. Blog posts left at their historical versions.

* feat(a2a): Agent2Agent protocol gateway
Add gateway/a2a — exposes registered agents over the open A2A protocol so
agents on other frameworks can discover and call them. Agent Cards are
generated from registry metadata (the same way the MCP gateway derives
tools from service endpoints); incoming A2A tasks translate to the
agent's existing Agent.Chat RPC, so there's no per-agent code.
v1 is the synchronous JSON-RPC binding: message/send returns a completed
Task, tasks/get retrieves it, and Agent Cards are served for discovery;
streaming and push notifications are advertised as unsupported. Run with
'micro a2a serve' (cmd/micro/a2a). Tests cover card generation,
message/send, tasks/get, listing, and unknown-method errors.
* docs: A2A guide, README contents + A2A section, universe A2A check
- Add a Contents table of contents at the top of the README and an A2A
subsection under Building Agents.
- Add the Agent2Agent (A2A) guide and register it in the docs nav.
- Exercise the A2A gateway in the universe harness: the concierge agent
is reached over A2A (message/send -> Agent.Chat -> completed task).
* feat(a2a): outbound client — call external A2A agents
Add a2a.Client (Send/Card) so a Go Micro agent or flow can call an agent
on any framework by URL — the outbound counterpart to the gateway. Wired
in two places: flow.A2A(url) as a workflow step (the cross-framework
Dispatch), and agent delegate to an http(s) URL routes over A2A. The
universe harness now drives the gateway through the client, exercising
both directions. Tests cover client send/card and the round trip.
* docs: A2A both-directions — guide, README, changelog, blog #26
