* feat(website): redesign docs and blog layouts, add blog header images
Redesign both layouts to match the new landing page:
- Consistent nav bar with logo, Docs, Blog, GitHub, Reference, Home
- Consistent footer with copyright and links
- CSS custom properties for theming
- Updated typography, spacing, and code block styling
- Active sidebar link highlighting in docs
- Dark mode support preserved
Generate 4 blog header images via Atlas Cloud:
- blog-deploy.png for post 1 (micro deploy)
- blog-mcp.png for posts 2, 3, 7 (MCP-related)
- blog-agents-demo.png for post 4 (agents demo)
- blog-dx.png for post 5 (DX cleanup)
- Reuse data-model.png for post 6 (model package)
All 7 existing blog posts now have header images.
* fix(website): prevent horizontal scroll on mobile landing page
Add overflow-x: hidden on html and body. Set max-width: 100% and
height: auto on all section and two-col images. Add overflow:
hidden to .two-col grid. Constrain hero pre with max-width and
overflow-x. Reduce font sizes and padding at mobile breakpoint.
* feat(website): add images to remaining core doc pages
Generate 5 more images via Atlas Cloud for docs:
- registry.png: service discovery diagram
- broker.png: pub/sub message broker pattern
- transport.png: multi-transport layers (HTTP, gRPC, NATS)
- config.png: dynamic configuration from multiple sources
- observability.png: monitoring dashboard with metrics/traces
Add images to registry.md, broker.md, transport.md, config.md,
observability.md, and architecture.md. All 11 main doc pages
now have header images.
* feat: add sponsor logos to landing page, README images, and flows blog post
Add Anthropic and Atlas Cloud sponsor logos to the landing page
with links to their respective blog posts. Logos display at 0.7
opacity with hover effect.
Add architecture and MCP agent images to the GitHub README for
the Overview and MCP sections.
Write blog post 9: "From Chat to Flows" — explores the concept
of LLM-powered service orchestration. Compares micro chat's
interactive model with persistent event-driven flows, shows how
the existing building blocks (ai/tools, History, broker) could
compose into a flow engine, discusses tradeoffs vs traditional
orchestration (Step Functions, Temporal), and includes a working
15-line code example. Explicitly positions it as a concept for
community feedback, not an announcement.
* feat(website): add animated hero video to landing page
Generate a 6-second hero video via Atlas Cloud's image-to-video
API (gemini-omni-flash). Shows the microservices network diagram
animating with data flowing between nodes.
Replace the static hero image with an autoplay muted looping
video element. Falls back to the static image via poster
attribute and img fallback for browsers without video support.
* feat(ai): add VideoModel interface with Atlas Cloud provider
Add ai.VideoModel interface for video generation alongside Model
and ImageModel. Supports text-to-video and image-to-video via
VideoRequest with prompt, reference images, duration, aspect
ratio, and resolution fields.
Implement GenerateVideo for Atlas Cloud using their async API:
POST /api/v1/model/generateVideo → poll /api/v1/model/prediction.
Default model is gemini-omni-flash image-to-video. Polls every
5 seconds until completion or context cancellation.
Register Atlas Cloud as a video provider via ai.RegisterVideo.
Add 3 tests: registration, no-key error, compile-time interface
check. Update ai/README.md with VideoModel docs.
The ai package now covers all three modalities:
- Model (text) — 7 providers
- ImageModel (image) — 2 providers (Atlas Cloud, OpenAI)
- VideoModel (video) — 1 provider (Atlas Cloud)

* feat(cli): add CRUD, pub/sub, and API gateway templates for micro new
Add --template flag to 'micro new' with three preset templates:
- crud: CRUD service with Create/Read/Update/Delete/List, in-memory
store with sync.RWMutex, UUID generation, pagination, and doc
comments with @example tags for MCP tool discovery.
- pubsub: Event-driven service with Publish/Stats RPCs and a
Subscribe method that hooks into the broker. Includes event
types with ID, type, source, data, and timestamp.
- api: API gateway service with Health and Endpoint RPCs, an
internal HTTP route table, and a response recorder for
proxying requests through RPC.
All templates include MCP-ready doc comments and work with
--no-mcp. The default template (no flag) is unchanged.
Usage:
micro new myservice --template crud
micro new myservice --template pubsub
micro new myservice --template api
* fix(ai): update Atlas Cloud provider to use actual API formats
Fix the Atlas Cloud image generation to use their real async API:
POST /api/v1/model/generateImage → poll /api/v1/model/prediction/{id}
instead of the OpenAI-compatible endpoint which doesn't exist.
Add Quality and OutputFormat fields to ai.ImageRequest for
provider-specific image parameters.
Update default text model from llama-3.3-70b (doesn't exist) to
deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V3-0324 (their flagship model). Update
default image model to openai/gpt-image-2/text-to-image.
* feat(website): add AI-generated images to landing page, docs, and blog
Generate 5 images via Atlas Cloud's image API (gpt-image-2) to
elevate the website experience:
- hero.png: microservices network graph for landing page
- architecture.png: registry + broker architecture diagram
- mcp-agent.png: AI agent calling services via MCP
- developer-experience.png: terminal showing micro run/chat
- blog-atlas.png: Atlas Cloud unified API illustration
Add visual sections to the landing page with architecture,
MCP integration, and developer experience showcases. Add
images to docs index, MCP docs, and Atlas Cloud blog post.
All images resized to 1200px wide and optimized for web.
Generated using Atlas Cloud sponsor credits.
* feat(website): redesign landing page and add images to docs
Redesign the landing page from a centered card layout to a
full-width modern site with:
- Top navigation bar
- Hero section with gradient background and CTA buttons
- Full-width image showcase sections
- Two-column layout for architecture, MCP, and DX sections
- Feature grid with 6 capabilities
- Footer with links
- Responsive breakpoints for mobile
Generate 3 more images via Atlas Cloud for docs:
- getting-started.png for the getting started guide
- deployment.png for the deployment guide
- data-model.png for the data model docs
Add images to getting-started.md, model.md, and deployment.md.

* feat(ai): add ImageModel interface with Atlas Cloud and OpenAI support
Add ai.ImageModel interface for text-to-image generation alongside
the existing ai.Model for text. Uses the same options pattern
(WithAPIKey, WithBaseURL) and the same provider registration
system (RegisterImage/NewImage).
Implement GenerateImage for Atlas Cloud and OpenAI providers via
the OpenAI-compatible /v1/images/generations endpoint. Default
image model is gpt-image-1. Responses return images as URL,
base64, or both depending on the provider.
Update Atlas Cloud blog post and integration guide with image
generation examples. Update ai/README.md with ImageModel docs.
* fix(website): widen docs content by reducing layout max-width to 1100px
Remove the 800px max-width on .content (which left empty space on
the right) and reduce the overall .layout and footer from 1400px
to 1100px. With the 230px sidebar this gives ~830px of content
width — readable and fills the page properly on desktop.
* feat(ai): add History for multi-turn conversation state
Add ai.History — a lightweight message accumulator that tracks
user prompts, assistant replies, and tool call/result pairs
across turns. FIFO truncation when message count exceeds the
configured limit. System prompt is passed through on every
Generate call.
Wire History into micro chat so conversations are multi-turn by
default (limit 50 messages). Add 'reset' command to clear
history mid-session.
5 unit tests covering accumulation, truncation, reset, snapshot
isolation, and tool call recording.

Add blog/8 announcing Atlas Cloud as an official Go Micro sponsor.
Covers the sponsorship, Atlas Cloud's platform (300+ models, OpenAI
compatibility, enterprise compliance), and how the integration
works with the ai package, ai/tools, micro chat, and micro run.
Add guides/atlascloud-integration.md with full setup instructions:
quick start, configuration options, environment variables, model
selection, tool calling with services, and provider swapping.
Add Atlas Cloud and AI Provider guides to the docs sidebar
navigation. Add sponsorship link to README header.
Co-authored-by: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
* 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.
* fix: strip /api prefix from MCP routes
Change /api/mcp/tools and /api/mcp/call to /mcp/tools and
/mcp/call. MCP is a first-class feature, not a sub-path of the
API proxy. Update server routes, playground template, scopes
template, run.go output, README, CLI README, and all docs.

Add ai/atlascloud implementing ai.Model for Atlas Cloud's
OpenAI-compatible chat completions API. Registers as "atlascloud"
with default model llama-3.3-70b and base URL
https://api.atlascloud.ai. Supports tool calling via ToolHandler.
Includes 7 unit tests covering registration, defaults, init,
generate-without-key, and stream-not-implemented.
Update the Supported AI Providers table in README.md and the
Supported Providers section in ai/README.md.
* fix: remove nonexistent Discord link from README

Remove the "Try Micro" promotional banner from the homepage. Set
the docs content max-width to 800px for better readability on
desktop.

* feat: add prometheus monitoring wrapper
Reintroduces the Prometheus metrics wrapper previously available in the
plugins repository, updated for go-micro v5. Exposes request count and
latency histograms for handlers, subscribers, and outgoing client calls
via NewHandlerWrapper, NewSubscriberWrapper, NewCallWrapper and
NewClientWrapper, labelled with service/endpoint/status.
Options cover namespace, subsystem, const labels, histogram buckets and
a custom registerer; duplicate collectors (e.g. from multiple wrappers
sharing the same config) are reused transparently via a cached
metrics bundle.
Fixes#2893
* fix(registry/etcd): clear lease/register caches on KeepAlive channel closure
When the etcd client's long-lived KeepAlive channel closes (e.g. because
the lease expired on the server side during a network partition), the
previous cleanup only removed the channel bookkeeping. The stale entries
in `leases` and `register` caused the next registerNode() heartbeat to
hit the "unchanged hash" short-circuit and skip re-registration entirely,
so the service permanently disappeared from etcd.
Extract the cleanup into handleKeepAliveClosed and also drop the cached
lease id and hash so the next heartbeat performs a full Grant+Put and
the service recovers within one RegisterInterval.
Regression introduced by #2822; fix is symmetric with the existing
synchronous KeepAliveOnce recovery path that propagates
rpctypes.ErrLeaseNotFound.
* 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

* feat: add agent platform showcase and blog post
Add a complete platform example (Users, Posts, Comments, Mail) that
mirrors micro/blog, demonstrating how existing microservices become
AI-accessible through MCP with zero code changes.
Includes blog post "Your Microservices Are Already an AI Platform"
walking through real agent workflows: signup, content creation,
commenting, tagging, and cross-service messaging.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01GkduEhcrqcG45rdfYh8dAc
* refactor: rename handler types to drop redundant Service suffix
UserService → Users, PostService → Posts, CommentService → Comments,
MailService → Mail. Matches micro/blog naming convention.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01GkduEhcrqcG45rdfYh8dAc
* refactor: consolidate top-level directories, reduce framework bloat
Move internal/non-public packages behind internal/ or into their
parent packages where they belong:
- deploy/ → gateway/mcp/deploy/ (Helm charts belong with the gateway)
- profile/ → service/profile/ (preset plugin profiles are a service concern)
- scripts/ → internal/scripts/ (install script is not public API)
- test/ → internal/test/ (test harness is not public API)
- util/ → internal/util/ (internal helpers shouldn't be imported externally)
Also fixes CLAUDE.md merge conflict markers and updates project
structure documentation.
All import paths updated. Build and tests pass.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01GkduEhcrqcG45rdfYh8dAc
* refactor: redesign model package to match framework conventions
Rename model.Database interface to model.Model (consistent with
client.Client, server.Server, store.Store). Remove generics in
favor of interface{}-based API with reflection.
Key changes:
- model.Model interface: Register once, CRUD infers table from type
- DefaultModel + NewModel() + package-level convenience functions
- Schema registered via Register(&User{}), no per-call schema passing
- Memory implementation as default (in model package, like store)
- memory/sqlite/postgres backends updated for new interface
- protoc-gen-micro generates RegisterXModel() instead of generic factory
- All docs, blog, and README updated
https://claude.ai/code/session_01GkduEhcrqcG45rdfYh8dAc
* docs: clarify blog post 7 uses modular monolith, not multi-service
Blog post 7 demonstrated all handlers in a single process but framed
it as microservices without acknowledging the architectural difference.
- Add "A Note on Architecture" section explaining this is a modular
monolith demo and pointing to micro/blog for multi-service
- Clarify that handlers can be broken out into separate services later
- Fix "service registry" language to match single-process reality
- Restructure "Adding MCP to Existing Services" to distinguish the
in-process approach from registry-based gateway options
- Update closing to acknowledge both paradigms
- Fix README type names (&CommentService{} -> &Comments{}, etc.)

- Clarify that handlers can be broken out into separate services later
- Fix "service registry" language to match single-process reality
- Restructure "Adding MCP to Existing Services" to distinguish the
in-process approach from registry-based gateway options
- Update closing to acknowledge both paradigms
- Fix README type names (&CommentService{} -> &Comments{}, etc.)

* feat: add agent platform showcase and blog post
Add a complete platform example (Users, Posts, Comments, Mail) that
mirrors micro/blog, demonstrating how existing microservices become
AI-accessible through MCP with zero code changes.
Includes blog post "Your Microservices Are Already an AI Platform"
walking through real agent workflows: signup, content creation,
commenting, tagging, and cross-service messaging.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01GkduEhcrqcG45rdfYh8dAc
* refactor: rename handler types to drop redundant Service suffix
UserService → Users, PostService → Posts, CommentService → Comments,
MailService → Mail. Matches micro/blog naming convention.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01GkduEhcrqcG45rdfYh8dAc
* refactor: consolidate top-level directories, reduce framework bloat
Move internal/non-public packages behind internal/ or into their
parent packages where they belong:
- deploy/ → gateway/mcp/deploy/ (Helm charts belong with the gateway)
- profile/ → service/profile/ (preset plugin profiles are a service concern)
- scripts/ → internal/scripts/ (install script is not public API)
- test/ → internal/test/ (test harness is not public API)
- util/ → internal/util/ (internal helpers shouldn't be imported externally)
Also fixes CLAUDE.md merge conflict markers and updates project
structure documentation.
All import paths updated. Build and tests pass.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01GkduEhcrqcG45rdfYh8dAc
* refactor: redesign model package to match framework conventions
Rename model.Database interface to model.Model (consistent with
client.Client, server.Server, store.Store). Remove generics in
favor of interface{}-based API with reflection.
Key changes:
- model.Model interface: Register once, CRUD infers table from type
- DefaultModel + NewModel() + package-level convenience functions
- Schema registered via Register(&User{}), no per-call schema passing
- Memory implementation as default (in model package, like store)
- memory/sqlite/postgres backends updated for new interface
- protoc-gen-micro generates RegisterXModel() instead of generic factory
- All docs, blog, and README updated

* feat: add agent demo example and blog post
Add examples/agent-demo with a multi-service project management app
(projects, tasks, team) that demonstrates AI agents interacting with
Go Micro services through MCP. Includes seed data and example prompts.
Add blog post 4 "Agents Meet Microservices: A Hands-On Demo" walking
through the example code and showing cross-service agent workflows.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01GkduEhcrqcG45rdfYh8dAc
* feat: enable multiple services in a single binary
Remove global state mutations from service and cmd option functions so
that configuring one service no longer overwrites another's settings.
Key changes:
- service/options.go: remove all DefaultXxx global writes from option
functions; newOptions() now creates fresh Server, Client, Store, and
Cache per service while sharing Registry, Broker, and Transport
- cmd/cmd.go: newCmd() uses local copies instead of pointers to package
globals; Before() no longer mutates DefaultXxx vars
- cmd/options.go: remove global mutations from all option functions
- service/service.go: export ServiceImpl type for cross-package use
- service/group.go: new Group type for multi-service lifecycle
- micro.go: add Start/Stop to Service interface, expose Group and
NewGroup convenience function
- examples/multi-service: working example with two services
https://claude.ai/code/session_01GkduEhcrqcG45rdfYh8dAc
* docs: highlight multi-service binary support
Add multi-service section to README with code example, update features
list, add to examples index, and note in status summary.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01GkduEhcrqcG45rdfYh8dAc
* feat: unify service API and clean up developer experience
- Unified service creation: micro.New("name", opts...) as canonical API
- Clean handler registration: service.Handle(handler, opts...) accepts
server.HandlerOption args directly, no need to reach through Server()
- Unexported serviceImpl: users interact through Service interface only
- Service groups use Service interface (not concrete type)
- Fixed Stop() to properly propagate BeforeStop/AfterStop errors
- Fixed store init: error-level log instead of fatal on init failure
- Updated all examples to use consistent patterns
- Updated README, getting-started, MCP docs, and guides
- Added blog post about the DX cleanup
https://claude.ai/code/session_01GkduEhcrqcG45rdfYh8dAc
* fix: add blog post 5 to blog index
Blog post 5 (Developer Experience Cleanup) existed as a file but was
missing from the blog index page.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01GkduEhcrqcG45rdfYh8dAc
* feat: make micro new generate MCP-enabled services by default
- main.go template includes mcp.WithMCP(":3001") by default
- Handler template has agent-friendly doc comments with @example tags
- Proto template has descriptive field comments
- README includes MCP usage, Claude Code config, and tool description tips
- Makefile adds mcp-tools, mcp-test, mcp-serve targets
- go.mod updated to Go 1.22
- Added --no-mcp flag to opt out of MCP integration
- Post-create output shows MCP endpoint URLs
https://claude.ai/code/session_01GkduEhcrqcG45rdfYh8dAc
* docs: add MCP migration guide and troubleshooting guide
- Migration guide: 3 approaches to add MCP to existing services
(WithMCP one-liner, standalone gateway, CLI)
- Troubleshooting guide: common issues with agents, WebSocket,
Claude Code, auth, rate limiting, and performance
https://claude.ai/code/session_01GkduEhcrqcG45rdfYh8dAc
* refactor: rename model/ package to ai/ for AI model providers
The model/ package name conflicted with the conventional use of "model"
for data models. Renamed to ai/ which better describes the package's
purpose (AI provider abstraction for Anthropic, OpenAI, etc.) and frees
up model/ for future data model layer use.
- Rename model/ → ai/ with package name change
- Update all Go imports from go-micro.dev/v5/model to go-micro.dev/v5/ai
- Update cmd/micro/server/server.go references (model.X → ai.X)
- Update all documentation and roadmap references
- All tests pass, CLI builds successfully
https://claude.ai/code/session_01GkduEhcrqcG45rdfYh8dAc
* feat: add model package for typed data access with CRUD and queries
New model/ package provides a typed data model layer using Go generics.
Supports structured CRUD operations, WHERE filters, ordering, pagination,
and automatic schema creation from struct tags.
Three backends:
- memory: in-memory for development and testing
- sqlite: embedded SQL for dev and single-node production
- postgres: full PostgreSQL for production deployments
Key features:
- Generic Model[T] with Create/Read/Update/Delete/List/Count
- Query builder: Where(), WhereOp(), OrderAsc/Desc(), Limit(), Offset()
- Struct tags: model:"key" for primary key, model:"index" for indexes
- Auto table creation from struct schema
- 19 tests passing across memory and sqlite backends
https://claude.ai/code/session_01GkduEhcrqcG45rdfYh8dAc
* feat: add model code generation to protoc-gen-micro
Extend the micro plugin to generate model structs from proto messages
annotated with // @model. Generated alongside client/server code in
the same .pb.micro.go file.
For a proto message like:
// @model
message User { string id = 1; string name = 2; }
Generates:
- UserModel struct with model:"key" and json tags
- NewUserModel(db) factory returning *model.Model[UserModel]
- UserModelFromProto(*User) *UserModel converter
- (*UserModel).ToProto() *User converter
Supports @model(table=custom_table, key=custom_field) options.
Adds GetComments() to generator for plugin comment inspection.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01GkduEhcrqcG45rdfYh8dAc
* feat: add Model() to Service interface for Client/Server/Model trifecta
Every service now exposes Client(), Server(), and Model() — call services,
handle requests, and save/query data from the same interface. Includes
README docs, blog post, and a full model guide on the docs site.

* Update docs and roadmap to March 2026 with focus priorities
- ROADMAP.md: Updated from Nov 2025 to reflect Q1 completions and current state
- ROADMAP_2026.md: Updated status to March 2026, added model package as delivered
- CURRENT_STATUS_SUMMARY.md: Rewrote with March 2026 status and clear next priorities
- PROJECT_STATUS_2026.md: Added model package section, updated recommendations
- Website roadmap: Updated Q3 security status and timestamps
Key focus areas identified: documentation guides, multi-protocol MCP,
LlamaIndex SDK, and OpenTelemetry integration.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01GkduEhcrqcG45rdfYh8dAc
* Add CLAUDE.md and four documentation guides to fill doc gaps
- CLAUDE.md: Project guide with structure, build commands, and priorities
- ai-native-services.md: End-to-end tutorial building an MCP-enabled task service
- mcp-security.md: Production security guide (auth, scopes, rate limiting, audit)
- tool-descriptions.md: Best practices for writing Go comments that help agents
- agent-patterns.md: Six integration patterns from single-agent to event-driven
- Updated docs index with new "AI & Agents" section linking all four guides
These were the highest priority gaps identified in the roadmap analysis:
the framework has solid features that were under-documented.
