docs: refresh planner priorities for 4358

.github/loop/PRIORITIES.md

@@ -21,8 +21,9 @@ changes, architectural rewrites. Those go to the human.
 
 ## Work queue (ranked)
 
-1. **Resume agent runs from checkpoints** ([#4368](https://github.com/micro/go-micro/issues/4368)) — #4391 closed the OpenTelemetry RunInfo gap, #4397 documented resume checkpoint limits, and #4399/#4402 moved the getting-started contract into CI, so the highest-value remaining depth seam is a focused, non-breaking durable-agent resume slice that preserves completed tool calls and avoids duplicate side effects before broader durability or API design work.
-2. **Broaden provider streaming conformance** ([#4386](https://github.com/micro/go-micro/issues/4386)) — The blog says Anthropic streaming shipped, but the roadmap still calls for provider-backed streaming across chat and A2A. Add a focused, provider-gated conformance slice so streaming stays end-to-end rather than becoming a one-provider success story.
+1. **Handle AtlasCloud Minimax 400s for native service tools** ([#4354](https://github.com/micro/go-micro/issues/4354)) — The previous AtlasCloud marker retry item (#4348) shipped, but the live provider has now exposed an earlier Now-phase conformance break: Minimax rejects native service-tool payloads in the agent, universe, and A2A stream fallback harnesses. Fixing the single-service-tool path restores the services-as-tools promise behind first-agent trust and unblocks several live adoption-facing examples without changing public APIs.
+2. **Fix AtlasCloud Minimax tool follow-up retry after tool results** ([#4355](https://github.com/micro/go-micro/issues/4355)) — Once native tool payloads are accepted, the next AtlasCloud gap is the follow-up retry transcript after a tool result. This protects plan/delegate plus service side effects from failing after partial work, directly supporting the services → agents → workflows lifecycle under real provider behavior.
+3. **Trace agent RunInfo in OpenTelemetry spans** ([#4315](https://github.com/micro/go-micro/issues/4315)) — After the live conformance regressions are stable, the highest Next-phase operability gap is connecting existing run metadata to traces so real agent runs can be debugged across steps, tool calls, delegation, failures, services, and flows without inventing a new surface.

----

-# What's New in Go Micro: v6.3.15
-
-*July 5, 2026 • By the Go Micro Team*
-
-Go Micro v6.3.15 is a small but useful harness release: less friction for the first agent, better streaming provider coverage, and more reliable execution when models and delegates do not behave perfectly.
-
-## Anthropic now streams
-
-The Anthropic provider now supports Messages SSE streaming and is registered as a streaming-capable provider. That means Go Micro agents can use Anthropic in the same streaming path as the other streaming-capable providers, with request/response parser coverage and provider capability docs kept in sync.
-
-## The first-agent path is easier to start
-
-The on-ramp now has a smallest runnable first-agent example: a mock-model, no-secret agent you can run before adding provider keys. The CLI and docs also point new users toward the maintained first-agent path after scaffold/run milestones, so the next step after a service is clearer: run the example, build the agent, debug it, then walk the 0→hero services → agents → workflows path.
-
-## Plan/delegate is more deterministic
-
-Plan/delegate runs got another reliability pass. Completed plan steps are preserved, ordering is guarded, notify-before-completion is required in the flow path, and checkpoint continuation is more stable. These are the kinds of harness fixes that matter when an agent does real work over multiple tool calls instead of just answering a prompt.
-
-## Tool-call recovery keeps improving
-
-Provider text tool-call fallback paths now recover more of the awkward cases: tagged calls, `Create`-suffixed calls, mixed text/tool-call output, and AtlasCloud follow-up calls. The goal is pragmatic: when a weaker or non-standard provider emits something close to a tool call, the harness should still make progress when it can do so safely.
-
-## A2A payment groundwork
-
-The A2A gateway now has the shared payment-mandate foundation needed for AP2-style agent payment flows. It is groundwork, not a full product story yet, but it keeps Go Micro's agent interop and paid-tool direction moving together.
-
-## Read the changelog
-
-The full release notes are in the [CHANGELOG](https://github.com/micro/go-micro/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md).
