* 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.

* docs: group README features by section (AI / Framework / DX)
The features table repeated 'AI' down the Category column. Split into
three grouped tables — AI, Framework, Developer experience & deployment —
dropping the repetitive column. Adds a Guardrails row (MaxSteps,
ApproveTool).
* test: flow-to-agent end-to-end in the harness
Proves 'Flow triggers, Agent reasons': a workflow with FlowAgent hands an
event to the registered conductor agent over RPC, which plans, creates
tasks, and delegates to comms — the whole chain over real RPC with only
the LLM mocked. Deterministic (shared in-memory registry, no sleeps),
passes under -race.
* blog: 'The Evolution of Microservices' (#19)
A technical history of distributed-systems eras — the monolith's
coordination cost, the distributed-systems tax, containers and
declarative orchestration, the service mesh, and the modular-monolith
correction — establishing the durable unit (named, typed, discoverable,
independently deployable) that every runtime wave required. Then the
technical argument for agents: an LLM tool call needs exactly a service
interface, so the caller shifts from deterministic code to a reasoner
that composes typed capabilities from intent, with the honest caveats
(non-determinism, cost, guardrails). Not a product pitch.

* rename coordinator agent to conductor in example and docs
* add plan & delegate integration harness
Runs the real go-micro stack end to end — services, registry, RPC, the
agent loop, store, and delegate-first routing — with only the LLM mocked
by a deterministic provider. Proves discovery, tool execution, plan
persistence, and agent-to-agent delegation over RPC work without an API
key; swap the provider to run the same flow against a live model.
* test: deterministic CI integration test + provider flag for harness
- main_test.go: TestPlanDelegateEndToEnd drives the full real stack
(services, RPC, agent loop, store, delegate-first routing) over a
shared in-memory registry — no mDNS, no sleeps. Asserts 3 tasks
created via RPC, plan persisted to the store, and delegation reaching
the comms agent (notify called once). Passes under -race, ~0.03s.
- main.go: add -provider flag (defaults to mock) and key detection so the
same harness runs against a live model with no code change.
* chore: gitignore built harness/example binaries
