 - **JWT auth ported in-module.** The external `github.com/micro/plugins/v5/auth/jwt` (pinned to v5) is replaced by `go-micro.dev/v6/auth/jwt/token`, now on the maintained `golang-jwt/jwt/v5`; the deprecated `dgrijalva/jwt-go` dependency is dropped.
 
 ### Added
-- **A2A protocol — both directions** — `gateway/a2a` exposes registered agents over the open Agent2Agent (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), and incoming tasks are translated to the agent's existing `Agent.Chat` RPC, with no per-agent code (`micro a2a serve`). The outbound `a2a.Client` calls external A2A agents by URL, wired into `flow.A2A(url)` (a workflow step) and `delegate` to an `http(s)` URL (from inside an agent). An agent can also serve A2A **directly** without a gateway via `AgentA2A(addr)` (`a2a.NewAgentHandler`), handling tasks in-process. The JSON-RPC binding includes `message/send`, `message/stream` (SSE), `tasks/get`, multi-turn continuation by `taskId`/`contextId`, best-effort push notification callbacks, `tasks/resubscribe`, `input-required` handoffs, and card discovery. (`gateway/a2a/`, `cmd/micro/a2a/`)

(`gateway/a2a/`, `cmd/micro/a2a/`)
 - **Agents (`micro.NewAgent`)** — an agent is a service with an LLM inside: it discovers its assigned services as tools, runs the model's tool loop, registers a `Chat` RPC endpoint, and is reachable like any service. `Ask` for programmatic use; `micro chat` discovers and routes to agents; `micro agent list`/`describe`. (`agent/`)
 - **Plan & delegate** — two built-in agent tools added to every agent: `plan` (an ordered, store-persisted plan surfaced back in the prompt) and `delegate` (hand a self-contained subtask to a registered agent over RPC, otherwise to an ephemeral sub-agent). No harness or graph — they're plain tools. (`agent/builtin.go`, `examples/agent-plan-delegate/`)
 - **Agent guardrails** — `MaxSteps` (stop on count), `LoopLimit` (stop repeated no-progress calls; on by default), and `ApproveTool` (human-in-the-loop / policy gate before each action), enforced at the one point every tool call passes through. (`agent/`, guide + blog)

-# Durable agent run resume
-
-This example shows the agent-side counterpart to `examples/flow-durable`: an
-agent run is checkpointed with the same `Checkpoint` interface used by flows,
-then resumed after an interruption without repeating a completed side effect.
-The sample uses an in-memory store to keep repeated local runs deterministic;
-use your service store for process-restart recovery.
-
-Run it with:
-
-```sh
-go run ./examples/agent-durable
-```
-
-The demo model calls `inventory.reserve`, then fails to mimic a process dying
-after the tool call was checkpointed. `micro.AgentPending` finds the unfinished
-run and `micro.AgentResume` continues it from the saved checkpoint. The final
-`tool executions: 1` line is the important bit: the reservation tool was not
-called a second time during resume.
-
-## When to use this instead of a durable flow
-
-Use a durable flow when the path is known ahead of time: ordered service calls,
-retries, timers, compensation, and a precise resume stage such as `reserve` or
-`charge`. Use a checkpointed agent run when the path is open-ended and the model
-may choose tools dynamically, but completed tool side effects still must not be
-replayed after a crash or provider failure.
-
-They compose: keep deterministic business process in `flow-durable`, then hand
-off the judgment-heavy step to a checkpointed agent when the workflow needs
-model-directed tool use. Both use the same `Checkpoint` backend, so inspection
-and recovery can share one run-history store.
-
-In a service, use the same pattern at startup:
-
-```go
-pending, _ := micro.AgentPending(ctx, agent)
-for _, run := range pending {
-    _, _ = micro.AgentResume(ctx, agent, run.ID)
-}
-```
-
-`context.Context` cancellation and deadlines are still honored by checkpoint
-loads/saves, model calls, and tool calls. Runs with terminal statuses such as
-`done`, `canceled`, and `expired` are not returned by `AgentPending`.

-# Agent Human Input Pause/Resume
-
-Agents can pause a durable run when the model needs a human decision before it
-can continue. This keeps the services → agents → workflows lifecycle in one
-runtime: services expose tools, the agent decides it needs operator input, and
-the same checkpointed run resumes once that input arrives.
-
-## Pattern
-
-```go
-cp := flow.StoreCheckpoint(nil, "deploy-agent")
-ag := agent.New(
-    agent.Name("deploy-agent"),
-    agent.WithCheckpoint(cp),
-)
-
-resp, err := ag.Ask(ctx, "Deploy the service")
-if err != nil {
-    // If the model called the built-in request_input tool, the run is saved as
-    // paused/input-required instead of losing state or completing early.
-    pending, _ := agent.Pending(ctx, ag)
-    runID := pending[0].ID
-
-    // Later, after an operator supplies the missing answer, the same run ID
-    // continues with the original prompt, human input, memory, and completed
-    // tool history intact.
-    resp, err = agent.ResumeInput(ctx, ag, runID, "Deploy to us-east-1")
-}
-_ = resp
-```
-
-The model sees a built-in `request_input` tool with a `prompt` argument. When it
-calls that tool, Go Micro persists the run with status `paused` and stage
-`input-required`. Plain `agent.Resume` continues to support completed, failed,
-and approval-paused runs; input-required runs are resumed with
-`agent.ResumeInput` so the human response is explicit.
-
-## Cancellation and deadlines
-
-`ResumeInput` uses the caller's `context.Context` for checkpoint reads, writes,
-and the resumed model/tool turn. If the context is canceled or its deadline
-expires before the resume is committed, the call returns the context error and
-the checkpointed run remains `paused` at `input-required`; list it with
-`agent.Pending` and retry with a fresh context once the operator is ready.

-# Zero-to-hero support desk
+# Support desk
 
-A maintained 0-to-hero reference for the Go Micro lifecycle: scaffold a few
-typed services, run them in one process, let an agent chat with those services
-as tools, then inspect the durable flow that triggered the work. It is one
-runnable file and one CI smoke test, so the reference path stays honest as the
-framework evolves.
-
-## The path
-
-1. **Scaffold services** — `customers`, `tickets`, and `notify` are ordinary
-   typed Go Micro services. Their request/response structs and method comments
-   become the tool contract the agent sees.
-2. **Run the harness** — the example starts an in-memory registry, broker,
-   client, store, services, agent, and flow in one process; no external
-   dependencies or API key are required for the default run.
-3. **Chat through an agent** — the `support` agent receives the ticket event as
-   a prompt and calls service tools to look up the customer, triage the ticket,
-   and draft a reply.
-4. **Inspect the workflow** — the `intake` flow records the event-driven run and
-   prints the agent result, showing the service → agent → workflow lifecycle as
-   one runtime.

 ## Built-in Capabilities
 
 Beyond its scoped service tools, every agent gets two built-in tools. They are not service endpoints — they are capabilities the agent has over itself and over other agents. They are plain tools wired into the agent's tool handler; there is no separate harness, loop engine, or graph. The LLM calls them exactly like any other tool.

-## Work queue (ranked)
+## Now (ranked)
 
-1. **Add a scheduled agent run harness contract** ([#3486](https://github.com/micro/go-micro/issues/3486)) — with conformance, failure/cancellation hardening, checkpoint resume, memory summarization, and A2A continuity now shipped, the highest-value remaining gap is proving unattended agents as first-class operational-harness workloads. This should compose existing services, agents, flows, store-backed memory, verification, conformance, and run inspection so the scaffold → run → chat → inspect lifecycle extends to scheduled/looping work without adding a hosted scheduler, graph DSL, or breaking public APIs.
+1. **Add cross-provider agent conformance checks** ([#3240](https://github.com/micro/go-micro/issues/3240)) — the resilience seam closed, so the next highest-value hardening gap is proving one representative agent/tool scenario across providers with key-gated CI/scheduled checks. This protects the harness promise that agents behave consistently on one runtime even as provider adapters evolve.
+2. **CI-verify the 0-to-1 getting-started path** ([#3234](https://github.com/micro/go-micro/issues/3234)) — add a deterministic no-key check for scaffold → run/build → call so the README/blog promise that building a service stays effortless cannot regress while the agent stack deepens.
+3. **CI-verify the 0-to-hero agent workflow** ([#3241](https://github.com/micro/go-micro/issues/3241)) — after the basic service contract is guarded, make the full services → agents → workflows story executable in CI with a maintained no-secret reference scenario for run → chat → inspect boundaries.
 
-2. **Export agent `RunInfo` as OpenTelemetry spans** ([#3501](https://github.com/micro/go-micro/issues/3501)) — once agents can run unattended, operators need production-grade visibility that lines up with the existing tracing stack. Map run lifecycle, checkpoints/resume, tool/delegate steps, and terminal failure/cancellation metadata into OpenTelemetry rather than creating a separate observability surface.
+## Later (ranked)
 
-3. **Broaden provider-backed `ai.Stream` conformance** ([#3502](https://github.com/micro/go-micro/issues/3502)) — A2A/chat streaming is now a visible UX seam, but the trust story depends on every provider adapter behaving consistently for streaming deltas, cancellation, and errors. Keep this as a conformance extension with mock/no-secret coverage plus provider-gated checks, so interop hardening stays CI-verifiable.
+4. **Add A2A resubscribe and input-required handoff support** ([#3235](https://github.com/micro/go-micro/issues/3235)) — after push notifications and multi-turn continuation shipped, finish the remaining long-running A2A interoperability gap: reconnecting to live task streams and carrying human-input-required handoffs through the gateway.

-# Provider conformance
-
-This harness keeps the services → agents → workflows lifecycle honest across the
-supported AI providers. It runs the same end-to-end scenarios against each
-configured provider and treats missing provider keys as an explicit skip, so the
-suite is safe for local development, forks, and scheduled CI.
-
-## What it exercises
-
-`go run ./internal/harness/provider-conformance` fans out over the provider-facing
-agent test and the harnesses in `internal/harness`:
-
-- `agent` — provider tool-call conformance through `agent.Ask`, including run metadata propagation.
-- `universe` — service discovery plus agent tool calls over the real runtime.
-- `agent-flow` — a workflow event that drives an agent to call services.
-- `plan-delegate` — plan persistence plus agent-to-agent delegation and service
-  calls.
-- `a2a-stream-fallback` — A2A `message/stream` through the gateway, including
-  fallback from unsupported provider streaming to the tool-calling `Ask` path while
-  preserving run metadata.
-
-The command also emits the registered provider capability matrix so the run shows
-which providers advertise model, image, video, and streaming support.
-
-## Local usage
-
-Run the deterministic path with no secrets:
-
-```sh
-go run ./internal/harness/provider-conformance -providers mock
-```
-
-Run every live provider that has a key in the environment:
-
-```sh
-go run ./internal/harness/provider-conformance \
-  -summary-json provider-conformance-summary.json \
-  -summary-markdown provider-conformance-summary.md \
-  -capabilities-markdown provider-capabilities.md
-```
-
-Provider keys are read from `MICRO_AI_API_KEY` or the provider-specific variable:
-
-| Provider | Secret / environment variable |
-| --- | --- |
-| Anthropic | `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` |
-| OpenAI | `OPENAI_API_KEY` |
-| Gemini | `GEMINI_API_KEY` |
-| Groq | `GROQ_API_KEY` |
-| Mistral | `MISTRAL_API_KEY` |
-| Together | `TOGETHER_API_KEY` |
-| AtlasCloud | `ATLASCLOUD_API_KEY` |
-
-Use `-require-configured` when you want a selected provider without a key to fail
-instead of skip. This is useful for manually checking that a required provider
-secret is actually wired into CI before relying on that provider as covered:
-
-```sh
-go run ./internal/harness/provider-conformance \
-  -providers anthropic,openai \
-  -require-configured
-```
-
-## Scheduled CI behavior

-The `Harness (E2E)` workflow runs on pushes and pull requests with deterministic

-schedule and manual dispatch it also runs the live provider conformance job. A
-manual dispatch can narrow `providers` or `harnesses`, and can set
-`require_configured=true` to fail fast when an expected repository secret is
-missing; scheduled runs keep the safe default and report missing keys as skips.
-That job:
-

-2. reads the provider keys from repository secrets,
-3. skips providers whose secrets are absent,
-4. fails when any configured provider fails a harness, and
-5. uploads JSON and Markdown coverage artifacts for the run.
-
-The job also appends the Markdown summary and capability matrix to the GitHub
-Actions step summary, making configured, skipped, and failed provider coverage
-visible without downloading artifacts.

-## Adding a provider
-
-To bring a new provider into scheduled conformance:
-
-1. register its `ai` provider implementation and capability metadata,
-2. add the provider name and key variable to `providerEnv` in `main.go`,
-3. import the provider package in `main.go`,
-4. pass the matching repository secret through `.github/workflows/harness.yml`,
-   and
-5. run `go run ./internal/harness/provider-conformance -providers <name> \
-   -require-configured` with a live key before opening the change.

-# An Agent Is a Service: Where Agent Frameworks Are Going
-
-*June 30, 2026 • By the Go Micro Team*
-
-There are now a lot of ways to build an agent. LangChain and LangGraph, LlamaIndex, CrewAI, Microsoft's AutoGen, Google's ADK, the model labs' own SDKs, and — most recently in our own backyard — [tRPC-Agent-Go](https://github.com/trpc-group/trpc-agent-go) from Tencent. They are not all solving the same problem, and the places they differ tell you a lot about where this is heading.
-
-This is a field guide to that landscape, and an honest account of where Go Micro sits in it.
-
-## The first wave: a model in a loop
-
-The first wave of agent frameworks solved one thing: get a model to call tools in a loop until a task is done. LangChain, more than any other project, defined that category in 2022 — chains, then agents, then graphs. LlamaIndex came at it from the data and retrieval side. CrewAI and AutoGen leaned into multi-agent orchestration — crews and conversations of role-played agents. The model labs shipped their own agent SDKs so you could stay close to the metal.
-
-That first problem — model, tools, a loop — is now largely commoditized. Every SDK does it, and they mostly do it well. Which means the interesting question has moved. It is no longer "how do I get a model to use a tool." It is everything that happens *around* the loop once the agent has to do real work: connect to real systems, hold state across restarts, recover from failure, be observed, be scheduled, and be reached by other agents. That is the part that decides whether an agent makes it out of a demo.
-
-LangChain itself is the clearest evidence. The framework was the distribution; the value moved to *operating* agents — which is why their commercial product is LangSmith (observability, evaluation, monitoring), not the framework. The lesson the pioneer taught is that the framework gets you to a running agent, and the hard, durable, valuable problems are in operating it.
-
-## "Agent = Model + Harness" — but a harness has two layers
-
-LangChain has a good framing for this: an agent is a model plus a *harness* — the runtime around the model that makes it useful. The framing is right. What is usually left implicit is that "harness" has two distinct layers, and almost all the frameworks live in the first one.
-
-**The intra-agent harness** is the runtime around a *single model*: the system prompt, the tool definitions, context management and compaction, the sandbox, self-verification, and the continuation loop that keeps the model going until it is done. LangChain and LangGraph, deepagents, Claude Code, and the model labs' SDKs are excellent at this. It is real, hard work, and it is most of what people mean when they say "agent framework."
-
-**The operational harness** is the distributed substrate an agent *operates inside*: services exposed as typed tools, discovery and RPC, durable and resumable runs, observability, scheduling, and the protocols agents use to reach each other. This is the layer where a single agent stops being a script and becomes part of a system — where many agents, many services, and many workflows have to compose without falling over.
-
-The first layer produces an agent. The second is where that agent has to live. Most frameworks build the first and leave the second to you — you bring your own services, your own discovery, your own durability, your own deployment. That is the gap that matters now, because the moment you have more than one agent or one service, the operational harness *is* the product.
-
-## The loop is the new frontier
-
-If the first wave was "a model in a loop," the direction now is what LangChain has started calling [loop engineering](https://www.langchain.com/blog/the-art-of-loop-engineering): stacking loops around the agent. It is a useful map. There is the **agent loop** (model calls tools until done), the **verification loop** (a grader checks the output against a rubric and sends failures back with feedback), the **event-driven loop** (the agent is triggered by webhooks, schedules, or messages instead of a human typing), and the **hill-climbing loop** (production traces feed back to improve the prompts, tools, and graders over time).
-
-Notice that only the first of those four is the intra-agent harness. The other three — verification, event-driven triggers, learning from traces — are the operational harness. The frontier is moving from "answer a prompt" to **scheduled, looping, work-performing agents**: agents that run on a cadence, do real work, check their own output, and get better. That is exactly the layer that is underbuilt, and it is the layer that decides whether agents are dependable.
-
-## Where the frameworks are going
-
-Survey the field and a shape emerges. LangChain and LangGraph pair graph-based orchestration with LangSmith for operations, funded to build the team that operates the platform. CrewAI and AutoGen are converging on multi-agent orchestration patterns. Google's ADK is a strong code-first framework with first-class evaluation, tuned for Gemini and Google Cloud. tRPC-Agent-Go brings a production-grade Go agent SDK — LLM, Chain, Parallel, Cycle, and Graph agents; tools; MCP and A2A; memory and RAG; evaluation; agent self-evolution; OpenTelemetry — maintained by Tencent's tRPC group and validated inside Tencent.
-
-They differ in the details, but most share two structural choices. They are an **agent SDK you run alongside your services** — the agents are a layer, and your service tier lives somewhere else and is called into. And they are **graph-centric** — you compose agents and tools into graphs and conditional workflows. That is a coherent, well-trodden approach, and for a lot of teams it is exactly right.
-
-Go Micro starts somewhere else.
-
-## Where Go Micro fits: an agent is a service
-
-Go Micro's position is a single claim: **an agent is a service.** Not a layer bolted onto a service tier — the same runtime.
-
-The reasoning is straightforward. The moment an agent has to discover services, call them, hold state, and recover from failure, it *is* a distributed system. That is precisely the problem a service framework already solves. So instead of building an agent SDK that sits next to your services, Go Micro makes agents and services the same primitives:
-
-- **Every service endpoint is automatically an AI-callable tool**, derived from registry metadata. You do not wire tools into a graph; you write a service and it is already a tool, reachable over MCP.
-- **An agent is a service.** It registers, is discovered, load-balances, exposes an `Agent.Chat` RPC, keeps store-backed memory, and is reachable over A2A — the same lifecycle as anything else you run.
-- **Workflows are durable code paths, not a graph DSL.** Use a `flow` of checkpointed steps where the path is known; dispatch to an agent where it is not. The deterministic parts are plain, resumable Go; the dynamic parts are agents.
-
-The premise is that the line between "your services" and "your agents" is accidental complexity. Remove it, and there is less to wire, less to keep in sync, and a much shorter path from a service to an agent that uses it. The operational harness — discovery, RPC, pub/sub, durable runs, observability, deployment — is not something you assemble around the framework. It *is* the framework.
-
-This is also why Go Micro is deliberately not a graph DSL. Graphs are expressive, and for some teams that visual, declarative model is the draw. But a graph is one more thing to learn and maintain next to your services. "It is just services and durable flows" is a smaller surface to hold in your head, and it composes with everything a service already does.
-
-## A concrete contrast: tRPC-Agent-Go
-
-Because it is the closest neighbour — a serious, production Go framework — tRPC-Agent-Go makes the fork concrete. It is an agent SDK that runs alongside your tRPC services, organised around graph, chain, parallel, and cycle agents. Go Micro is one runtime where the agent *is* the service and orchestration is durable flows.
-
-We will be honest about where they are ahead: tRPC-Agent-Go ships a first-class evaluation framework, agent self-evolution, AG-UI streaming, and RAG today. Go Micro has the trace foundation (OpenTelemetry run timelines, `micro runs`) and has the verification/grader loop and richer memory on the roadmap — but if you need those right now, they are further along there, with a large team behind them. Pretending the checklists match would help no one.
-
-What Go Micro offers in return is the thing an SDK-alongside-your-services cannot: services that become tools with zero glue, agents that are first-class services, and one set of primitives — service, agent, flow — instead of a service stack plus an agent layer plus a graph runtime.
-
-## The direction we're building
-
-If scheduled, looping, work-performing agents are where this goes, then the operational harness is the thing to get right, and loops are the organising idea. Go Micro already has the agent loop, durable event-driven flows, and the trace foundation for learning. The verification loop — grade a step's output against a rubric and route failures back with feedback — is the next primitive, building on the supervised loop and retry machinery already there. Durable agent runs, streaming end to end, and richer observability are on the same line. The aim is not to win a feature checklist; it is to be the runtime where an operating agent is dependable.
-
-There is one more piece of evidence we find hard to argue with: Go Micro is increasingly built by its own loop — an autonomous improvement loop running in CI, opening and merging its own changes against a thesis. An agent harness, operated by agents, building itself. If it is good enough to do that, it is good enough to operate yours.
-
-## Open protocols, different homes
-
-None of this is winner-take-all, and it should not be. Every serious framework here speaks **MCP** for tools and **A2A** for agents. A Go Micro agent and a tRPC-Agent-Go agent can call each other; either can consume the other's tools; an ADK or LangGraph agent can plug into a Go Micro runtime over A2A, and the reverse. The protocols are the commons.
-
-So the real question is not which framework wins. It is where your agents should *live*. The answer that Go Micro is built around is that when an agent has to operate inside a real system, it is a distributed system — and the simplest place to build it is the runtime where your services already live.

-## Durable agent runs
-
-Agents can persist their execution history to the same `Checkpoint` backend as
-flows. A checkpointed `Ask` records the run id, original prompt, model result,
-and completed tool calls. If the process restarts after a tool succeeds but
-before the model finishes, `AgentResume` continues the same run and returns the
-recorded tool result instead of re-running the side effect. If a run already
-completed, resume returns the persisted response without calling the model.
-
-```go
-agent := micro.NewAgent("conductor",
-    micro.AgentProvider("anthropic"),
-    micro.AgentWithCheckpoint(checkpoint),
-)
-
-resp, err := agent.Ask(ctx, "charge order 42 and send a receipt")
-if err != nil {
-    // On startup, or after a transient failure, discover unfinished work:
-    pending, _ := micro.AgentPending(ctx, agent)
-    for _, run := range pending {
-        _, _ = micro.AgentResume(ctx, agent, run.ID)
-    }
-}
-_ = resp
-```
-
-Choose the boundary deliberately: use a durable flow when the steps are known
-(`reserve`, `charge`, `confirm`) and each step has deterministic retry/resume
-semantics. Use a checkpointed agent run when the model is deciding which tools to
-call or how many turns it needs, but the side effects of completed tool calls
-still need crash-safe resume. Flows and agents share the same `Checkpoint`
-interface, so a flow can safely dispatch to a checkpointed agent for the
-open-ended part.
-
-For human-in-the-loop runs that pause through the built-in `request_input` tool,
-resume with the operator's response:
-
-```go
-_, err := micro.AgentResumeInput(ctx, agent, runID, "Deploy to us-east-1")

-### Long-running memory
-
-Agents use store-backed conversation memory by default, scoped under the agent's
-name. That makes short restarts boring: the next `Ask` reloads the retained
-history from the same store backend you already use for services and flows.
-Long-running agents can also keep model context bounded without losing useful
-prior context:
-
-```go
-a := micro.NewAgent("conductor",
-    micro.AgentServices("task"),
-    micro.AgentProvider("anthropic"),
-    micro.AgentCompactMemory(40, 12),      // max active messages, recent messages kept verbatim
-    micro.AgentMemoryRecallLimit(5),       // archived turns recalled per Ask
-)
-```
-
-`AgentCompactMemory(maxMessages, keepRecent)` switches the default memory to a
-deterministic compactor. Once active history grows past `maxMessages`, older
-turns move into the durable archive, a provider-neutral summary is injected into
-active context, and the newest `keepRecent` messages stay verbatim. On future
-asks, archived turns whose text matches the current request are recalled ahead of
-the active context. The built-in retrieval is intentionally simple and
-credential-free for CI; teams that need embeddings or a vector database can still
-provide their own `AgentMemory` implementation.
-
-This is harness memory, not prompt-layer orchestration: services remain the
-capabilities, agents remain the dynamic decision makers, and flows remain the
-durable predefined paths. Compaction only keeps a scheduled or looping agent from
-turning every past turn into model context while still letting it remember facts
-that matter to the current service → agent → workflow run.
-
-Checkpointed agent runs and compacted memory share the same store-backed shape.
-If a provider call fails after the prompt has been recorded, `agent.Resume` uses
-the checkpointed run id and does not append that same user turn a second time;
-completed tool results and recalled archived memory remain available for the
-retry.

 Anthropic lists five workflow patterns. Go Micro implements the two richest ones natively, as services and tools, and the rest are ordinary compositions:

-## vs tRPC-Agent-Go
-
-[tRPC-Agent-Go](https://github.com/trpc-group/trpc-agent-go) (maintained by tRPC-Group,
-validated inside Tencent) is a production-grade Go framework for agent systems:
-LLM / Chain / Parallel / Cycle / Graph agents, function tools, MCP, A2A, AG-UI, Redis
-memory and RAG, evaluation, agent self-evolution, and OpenTelemetry. It's a serious,
-well-resourced project.
-
-They overlap heavily on agents but take a different approach. tRPC-Agent-Go is an **agent
-SDK you run alongside your services** — you compose agents and tools into graphs and
-conditional workflows, and your microservices (tRPC) live separately and are called
-into. Go Micro starts from the premise that **an agent is a service** — one runtime
-where every endpoint is automatically a tool, an agent registers and is discovered and
-load-balanced like anything else, and workflows are durable code paths rather than a
-graph DSL. The premise is that the line between "your services" and "your agents" is
-accidental complexity; remove it and there's less to wire and keep in sync.

-| | Go Micro | tRPC-Agent-Go |
-|---|----------|---------------|
-| **Primary unit** | A harnessed service (an agent is a service with an LLM inside) | An agent |
-| **Orchestration** | Durable `flow` steps + `Loop` — plain code paths | Graph / Chain / Parallel / Cycle agents (graph DSL) |
-| **Services as tools** | Every endpoint is automatically an MCP tool | Function tools + MCP, wired explicitly |
-| **Service runtime** | Built in — agents *are* services (registry, RPC, load balancing, pub/sub) | Runs alongside your existing service stack (tRPC) |
-| **MCP / A2A** | Both, generated from the registry | Both |
-| **Evaluation / self-evolution** | Verification loop on the roadmap; not yet first-class | First-class today |
-| **Memory / RAG** | Store-backed memory (Postgres, NATS KV, file); RAG on the roadmap | In-memory / Redis memory; RAG today |

-### When to choose tRPC-Agent-Go
-- You want a graph/workflow DSL for composing agents and tools
-- You're on tRPC, or want to add agents alongside an existing service stack
-- You want first-class evaluation and self-evolution today, with a large team behind it
-
-### When to choose Go Micro
-- You want one runtime where services, agents, and flows are the same primitives —
-  registered, discoverable, and deployed the same way
-- You want your existing services to become agent tools with zero extra code
-- You prefer durable flows and plain code paths over a graph DSL, in a small,
-  independent framework you can hold in your head
-
-### They interoperate
-
-Both speak **MCP** and **A2A**, so a Go Micro agent and a tRPC-Agent-Go agent can call
-each other over A2A, and either can consume the other's MCP tools. You can run Go Micro
-as the service-and-agent runtime and still reach an agent built on tRPC-Agent-Go.
