* 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.
* lint: apply golangci-lint autofixes; exclude ST1003 and demo errcheck
Mechanical, behaviour-preserving fixes applied by 'golangci-lint run --fix':
gofmt, misspell (US spelling), usestdlibvars (http.Method*/Status*), unconvert,
and the auto-fixable staticcheck simplifications (QF*, S1017/S1019/S1023/S1039).
Config: exclude ST1003 (remaining offenders are exported API renames, e.g.
web.Id, which would break compatibility) and skip errcheck for examples/ and
internal/harness/ (demo code where fire-and-forget is intentional).
Build and test compilation verified.

* lint: WIP cleanup checkpoint (errcheck config + partial fixes)
Checkpoint of an in-progress golangci-lint cleanup (background pass). Builds
cleanly; lint is not yet zero. Follow-up commit will complete the cleanup and
switch CI to a blocking full-tree lint.

* 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.

Restructure ai.ToolHandler to the structured, ctx-carrying shape that
mirrors a go-micro RPC handler:
func(ctx context.Context, call ai.ToolCall) ai.ToolResult
This reuses the existing ToolCall (with its correlation ID) and
ToolResult types instead of the flat (name, input)->(any, string)
signature, and adds ToolCall.Scan for typed argument access.
Add ai.ToolWrapper and the agent option WrapTool / micro.AgentWrapTool —
the tool-side analogue of client.CallWrapper and server.HandlerWrapper.
Reframe the built-in guardrails (MaxSteps, LoopLimit, ApproveTool) as
composed wrappers around a base handler; developer wrappers compose
outermost, so they observe every call and result, including refusals.
Update all provider call sites, the MCP server and chat handlers, the
integration harnesses, and docs to the new signature.

* docs: add AI provider integration guide and Supported AI Providers section
Add a step-by-step guide for AI infrastructure companies to implement
ai.Model and contribute a provider to go-micro. Covers the full
lifecycle: skeleton, tool call handling, tests, registration, and PR
checklist.
Add a "Supported AI Providers" section to the project README that lists
current providers (Anthropic, OpenAI) in a table and links to the
integration guide with a call-to-action for new providers and sponsors.
Streamline the "Adding a New Provider" section in ai/README.md to point
to the new guide instead of duplicating a full code listing.
* fix: remove nonexistent Discord link from README
* fix(website): set content container width to 800px on desktop
Move the 800px max-width from .markdown-body up to .content so
the entire content pane (not just the inner body) is sized
correctly. The container now fills up to 800px beside the sidebar.
* feat(ai): wire Atlas Cloud into server and auto-detection
Import atlascloud provider in the micro server so it is available
when running micro run / micro server. Add atlascloud to
AutoDetectProvider so --ai_base_url with an atlascloud domain
selects the right provider automatically.
* feat(ai): add Google Gemini provider
Add ai/gemini implementing ai.Model for Google's Gemini API. Uses
the native generateContent endpoint with system_instruction,
contents/parts, and functionDeclarations — not an OpenAI shim.
Default model gemini-2.5-flash, auth via x-goog-api-key header.
Wire into micro server imports and AutoDetectProvider (matches
googleapis.com and google in base URL).
Update README.md and ai/README.md with provider listing.
* feat(ai): add Groq, Mistral, and Together AI providers
Add three new OpenAI-compatible providers:
- ai/groq: ultra-fast inference, default model llama-3.3-70b-versatile
- ai/mistral: Mistral AI, default model mistral-large-latest
- ai/together: Together AI, default model Llama-3.3-70B-Instruct-Turbo
All three are wired into the micro server imports and
AutoDetectProvider. README and ai/README updated with the full
provider table.
* feat(ai): add ai/tools helper and 'micro chat' interactive agent
Extract the registry-discovery + RPC-execution loop from the web
agent playground into a reusable ai/tools package:
- tools.New(reg) creates a Set bound to a registry
- Set.Discover() walks the registry and returns []ai.Tool with
LLM-safe (underscored) names, remembering the mapping back to
the original dotted form
- Set.Handler(client) returns an ai.ToolHandler that resolves
the safe name and issues the RPC
Add cmd/micro/chat — an interactive 'micro chat' REPL that uses
ai/tools to let users talk to their services through any
registered AI provider. Supports --prompt for single-shot use,
auto-detects the provider from --base_url, and falls back to the
provider's conventional env var (ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, etc).
Update README with the new command and the programmatic example.
* feat(examples): add gRPC interop example
Add examples/grpc-interop showing that any standard gRPC client can
call a go-micro service — no go-micro SDK required on the client
side. Includes:
- proto/greeter.proto with generated Go, gRPC, and micro stubs
- server/ using go-micro gRPC transport
- client/ using stock google.golang.org/grpc (no go-micro imports)
- README with Python example and explanation of how routing works
Addresses the confusion from issue #2818 where users didn't know
that go-micro gRPC services are callable by any gRPC client.
