* ai/minimax: complete provider surface (matrix, conformance, changelog)
Follow-up after merging the MiniMax provider (#3769), mirroring the Ollama
completeness pass (#3637):
- Add the `minimax` row to the AI provider capability matrix and blank-import
ai/minimax in provider_capabilities_test.go so the matrix stays enforced
against the registry.
- Add minimax to the stream-conformance allowlist (+ import) so its streaming
is actually exercised against the OpenAI-compatible SSE contract, not just
registered. It passes via the shared ai/internal/openaiapi path.
- Record the provider in CHANGELOG [Unreleased].

* ai: update capabilities_test provider assertions for minimax
Adding the minimax blank-import to the shared ai_test binary (for stream
conformance) also registers it for TestRegisteredProviders / TestCapabilityRows
/ TestCapabilityMatrix in capabilities_test.go, which pin the exact provider
set. Update those assertions to include minimax. (Fixes the Unit Tests failure
my scoped `-run TestStreamProviders` check missed — go compiles all _test.go in
a package into one binary.)

Follow-up cleanup after merging the Ollama provider (#3636):
- Add the `ollama` row to the AI provider capability matrix in the provider
guide, and blank-import `ai/ollama` in provider_capabilities_test.go so the
matrix stays enforced against the registry (the provider registers a stream
but wasn't imported in that test, so its row went unchecked).
- README: bump "7 LLM providers" → 8 and list Ollama (local + cloud); add its
default model (`llama3.2`) to the model table.
- Fix a fictional model name shipped in the example and package doc:
`gemma4:31b-cloud` → `gpt-oss:120b`. gemma4 doesn't exist, and the `-cloud`
suffix is for cloud models proxied through a local Ollama, not the direct
ollama.com/v1 endpoint the example uses.
- Record the provider and the new agent.BaseURL/micro.AgentBaseURL option in
the CHANGELOG [Unreleased] section.

There was no working, prominent Discord link. Update the stale invite code
(WeMU5AGxD → G8Gk5j3uXr) everywhere it appeared (README, docs, blog, landing,
SECURITY, issue templates, contrib), and add the link prominently: the site
nav and footer includes (so it shows on every landing/docs/blog page), a
Discord badge + a Community line in the README, and a "Join Discord" button on
the landing.

* blog+docs: drop the word "bet" from the tRPC-Agent-Go comparison
Reword "two bets" / "opposite bet" / "the bet is" to approaches / premise /
principle across blog/32 and the comparison guide.
* blog: expand /blog/32 into a field guide on agent frameworks
Roughly double the length with deeper context: the first wave (LangChain &
co.), the two layers of a harness (intra-agent vs operational), loop
engineering and the move to scheduled/looping/work-performing agents, a
survey of where the frameworks are going (LangGraph, CrewAI, AutoGen, ADK,
tRPC-Agent-Go), then Go Micro's "an agent is a service" position, the honest
tRPC-Agent-Go contrast, and MCP/A2A interop. Drops the word "bet" throughout.

Add a fair, honest positioning piece on the architectural fork with
tRPC-Agent-Go (an agent SDK alongside your services / graph DSL) vs Go Micro
(one runtime where an agent is a service, every endpoint a tool, durable
flows not a graph DSL). New blog post /blog/32 + a parallel section in the
existing comparison guide; honest about where tRPC-Agent-Go is ahead
(eval, self-evolution, RAG) and that they interoperate over MCP/A2A.

* loop: establish the continuous-improvement charter + scheduled backbone
Define the autonomous improvement loop (internal/docs/CONTINUOUS_IMPROVEMENT.md):
full autonomy with correctness (build/test/lint) as the only gate, work sourced
from roadmap + issues + an improvement radar + dogfooding, Claude Code driving
and Codex executing scoped tasks, with brand/positioning and breaking API kept
with the human.
Add a durable scheduled GitHub Action (.github/workflows/continuous-improvement.yml)
as the session-independent backbone — a safe no-op until an ANTHROPIC_API_KEY
secret is added.
* docs: mark harness Resilience as shipped
Resilience (per-call timeout + context propagation + opt-in retry/backoff)
landed in #3017/#3021; update the agent-harness status table from
'In progress' to 'Shipped'.

- Add the canonical concept doc 'The Agent Harness' (docs/guides/agent-harness.md)
+ nav entry: what the harness is, each piece mapped to a feature, honest
about shipped vs in-progress.
- Add blog post /blog/30 'Go Micro is an Agent Harness' (the public articulation;
precise about what ships today vs the Now/Next roadmap).
- Align the ROADMAP.md opening line to the agent-harness framing.

Adds the agentic 'loop' to flows: flow.Loop(body, opts...) is a StepFunc
that runs a body step repeatedly, carrying State across passes, until a
stop condition fires or a hard iteration cap is reached.
- Stop modes: flow.Until (code-defined predicate) and flow.UntilLLM (the
model judges the goal met after each pass — the supervised 'Ralph'
loop). Either firing stops the loop.
- flow.LoopMax is the guardrail: the body never runs more than n times, so
the loop always terminates and can't run up an unbounded bill. Hitting
the cap returns the latest state rather than erroring.
- flow.OnIteration reports per-pass progress.
- Composes as a normal flow step (checkpointed by the step engine).
- Exposed at the top level as micro.FlowLoop / FlowUntil / FlowUntilLLM /
FlowLoopMax / FlowOnIteration, symmetric with the other Flow* helpers.
Includes tests, an offline runnable example (examples/flow-loop), an
'Agent Loops' guide, and a CHANGELOG entry.

* docs: compare Go Micro with Google ADK in the comparison guide
Adds a 'vs Agent Frameworks (Google ADK)' section: ADK builds an agent,
Go Micro builds the distributed system the agent lives in (agents are
services in the mesh). Covers the category difference, a feature table,
when to choose each, and MCP/A2A interoperability.

* docs: replace ADK comparison slogan with concrete explanation
State plainly what each tool provides (ADK builds an agent process; Go Micro
builds the surrounding service mesh) instead of marketing phrasing.

Plain 'go install go-micro.dev/v6/cmd/micro@latest' fails on the public
module proxy with a version-constraints conflict: the proxy has cached the
sub-paths go-micro.dev/v6/cmd and .../cmd/micro as standalone v0/v1 modules
(from old github.com/micro/go-micro tags, surfaced during an earlier vanity
meta bug), so @latest resolves to v1.18.0 with a mismatched module path.
A version-prefix query (@v6) sidesteps it: those cached sub-path modules
have no v6.x.x versions, so Go falls back to the go-micro.dev/v6 root
module and builds correctly. Verified against proxy.golang.org.

Closes the remaining ask in #2980 without adding a parallel callback API.
ToolResult.Refused tags a guardrail block with a reason (ai.RefusedLoop /
RefusedMaxSteps / RefusedApproval) so a wrapper can switch on it instead of
parsing the message. ai.RunInfo (RunID, ParentID, Agent) rides on the
context passed to the tool handler, giving wrappers run correlation and
delegation lineage. Before/after/retry/failure were already covered by
AgentWrapTool; this adds the metadata. Docs + tests included.

* 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.

Refactor the A2A handler into a reusable dispatcher + Invoke seam and
expose NewAgentHandler(card, invoke) + Card(). An agent now serves its
own A2A endpoint with AgentA2A(addr) / WithA2A — handling tasks
in-process (no RPC hop, no separate gateway). The gateway and embedded
agent share the same handler; the only difference is RPC vs in-process
invocation. Docs, README, and changelog cover both deployment modes.

* 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
