docs: refresh planner priorities for 4127

 ## Work queue (ranked)
 
-1. **Make plan-delegate harness complete delegated notification steps** ([#4138](https://github.com/micro/go-micro/issues/4138)) — the duplicate-notification fix and first-agent tutorial harness have both shipped, but the live atlascloud plan-delegate matrix still exposed a higher-severity Now-phase contract break: a delegated notification can succeed or be reused while the persisted plan step remains incomplete. Fixing that keeps the provider conformance evaluator trustworthy without relaxing the services → agents → workflows lifecycle gate.
-2. **Verify no-secret agent debugging walkthrough** ([#4142](https://github.com/micro/go-micro/issues/4142)) — keep adoption pressure balanced with hardening by extending the maintained 0→1 path past scaffold/run/chat into inspect and debugging. A provider-free smoke check for the documented first-agent debug sequence will catch command drift at the exact seam where new developers need confidence after the first conversation behaves unexpectedly.
+1. **Stabilize plan-delegate harness against duplicate delegated notifications** ([#4118](https://github.com/micro/go-micro/issues/4118)) — the scheduled provider-conformance matrix is now in place, and its first live signal exposed an atlascloud/minimax duplicate-notify regression. Preserve the semantic “exactly one launch-readiness notification” contract with focused regression coverage so the live matrix remains a useful evaluator rather than a noisy gate.
+2. **Add a copy/paste first-agent tutorial smoke harness** ([#4128](https://github.com/micro/go-micro/issues/4128)) — the CLI examples wayfinding shipped, so keep adoption pressure on the next most valuable seam: prove the website’s Your First Agent path can be followed from a clean workspace without relying on prose staying honest by hand. A focused CI-verifiable tutorial boundary keeps scaffold → run → chat → inspect cohesive after future CLI and docs changes.

 ## [Unreleased]
 
-### Added
-- **First-agent examples CLI wayfinding** — `micro examples` now prints the maintained provider-free first-agent examples in copy/paste order. (`cmd/micro/`)
-- **0→hero CLI entrypoint** — `micro zero-to-hero` now points developers at the maintained no-secret services → agents → workflows harness and runnable examples. (`cmd/micro/`)
-
-### Fixed
-- **Plan/delegate notify replays** — duplicate and replayed plan-delegate notifications are now idempotent, so resumed runs do not duplicate completed notifications. (`agent/`, `internal/harness/`)
-- **Provider conformance scheduling** — provider conformance workflow dispatches now guard their scheduling path more reliably. (`.github/workflows/`)
-
-### Documentation
-- **First-agent quickstart numbering** — the first-agent on-ramp numbering is consistent across the README and website docs. (`README.md`, `internal/website/docs/`)
-- **First-agent inspect command** — docs now use the maintained `micro inspect agent <name>` form. (`README.md`, `internal/website/docs/`)
-
----
-
-## [6.3.16] - July 2026
-
-### Added
-- **No-secret agent demo CLI** — the CLI now surfaces `micro agent demo`, making the provider-free first-agent path discoverable from the installed binary. (`cmd/micro/`)
-- **First-agent recovery doctor** — first-agent recovery checks now help diagnose install, scaffold, and provider setup issues before the live agent run. (`cmd/micro/`, `internal/website/docs/guides/`)
-
-### Changed
-- **Architecture lifecycle docs** — the architecture guide now leads with the services → agents → workflows lifecycle and the first-agent on-ramp. (`internal/website/docs/architecture.md`)
-- **First-agent on-ramp** — README and website docs now lead new users through install troubleshooting, no-secret demos, the smallest first-agent example, debugging, and the 0→hero reference path in the same order. (`README.md`, `internal/website/docs/`)
-
-### Fixed
-- **Config close idempotency** — config close paths now tolerate repeated closes safely. (`config/`)
-- **OpenTelemetry child span events** — agent traces now preserve child span events more reliably. (`agent/`)
-
-### Documentation
-- **Security reporting** — security docs now route vulnerability reports through GitHub Security Advisories. (`SECURITY.md`, `internal/website/docs/`)
-- **Install troubleshooting** — the first-agent on-ramp now includes clearer install and PATH recovery guidance. (`internal/website/docs/guides/install-troubleshooting.md`)
