The Loop, Shipped: Introducing micro loop

July 2, 2026

The autonomous loop that builds Go Micro is now a command. micro loop init drops a planner, builder, triage, coherence, and release pipeline into any repository — GitHub Actions as the runtime, editable prompt files as the policy — and Go Micro now runs on it.

An Agent Is a Service: Where Agent Frameworks Are Going

June 30, 2026

A field guide to the agent-framework landscape — LangChain and the first wave, the two layers of a harness, the rise of loop engineering, and where the frameworks (LangGraph, ADK, CrewAI, AutoGen, tRPC-Agent-Go) diverge. And why Go Micro's answer is that an agent is a service.

How Go Micro Builds Itself

June 25, 2026

Go Micro is increasingly built by an autonomous loop of two AI agents — Codex writing scoped increments, Claude Code orchestrating, the human setting direction. Here's how the loop actually works, including the parts that broke.

Go Micro is an Agent Harness

June 24, 2026

The first wave of agent frameworks put a model in a loop. The harder problem is operating that loop — tools, state, guardrails, recovery, observability, interop — and that's what Go Micro is: the harness around the agent, built from the stack you already deploy.

Go Micro Joins OpenAI's Codex for Open Source

June 23, 2026

OpenAI is backing Go Micro through Codex for Open Source — six months of ChatGPT Pro to support the work of maintaining the project. A framework built around agentic development, maintained with agentic tooling.

Building a Support Agent in Go

June 19, 2026

A real thing you can build with Go Micro: a support desk where a customer ticket triggers an agent that looks up the customer, sets priority, and replies — with a human-in-the-loop gate on the one action that touches a customer.

Bringing an Open Source Project Back from the Dead

June 18, 2026

Go Micro started in January 2015, went through a VC-funded company and a platform pivot, and then went quiet. This is how it came back — and how agents, services, and flows brought it to v6.

Agents Across Frameworks: A2A

June 18, 2026

Go Micro agents already call each other over RPC. Now they speak the Agent2Agent protocol too — reachable by, and able to reach, agents built on any framework. Cards are generated from the registry, the same way the MCP gateway derives tools.

Go Micro is Becoming a Framework for Agentic Development

June 17, 2026

Three months ago, with Anthropic's support, Go Micro went all in on AI. A look back at what shipped — agents, workflows, guardrails, payments, durable execution — and where it's heading.

Durable Workflows

June 17, 2026

An event-driven workflow runs for minutes and has side effects partway through — it reserved stock, it charged a card. When the process dies mid-run, re-running from the top does it all again. Go Micro flows are now ordered, checkpointed steps that resume where they stopped.

Agent Guardrails

June 16, 2026

An autonomous agent fails in mundane ways — it loops, it runs away, it takes an action it shouldn't. Go Micro separates orchestration from execution safety, and gives every agent three guardrails at the point where tools actually run.

Integrating x402: Payments for Agents

June 15, 2026

Agents that act on their own eventually need to pay on their own. Go Micro now speaks x402 — the HTTP 402 payment standard — so a tool can require a stablecoin payment and an agent can settle it, with the chain pluggable behind a facilitator.

When the Event Is the Prompt

June 15, 2026

Most agents wait for a human to type something. The useful ones don't — they run because something happened in the system. A Flow turns an event into the prompt, and an agent acts on its own.

Doubling Down on Agents

June 10, 2026

Go Micro made services easy by being opinionated, batteries-included, and pluggable. We're applying the same model to agents — a model, memory, and tools that compose like a service does.

The Evolution of Microservices

June 8, 2026

From the scaling pressures that produced microservices, through Kubernetes and the service mesh, to AI agents — fifteen years of evolution, what actually endured, and why the future belongs to agents.

Not Everything Should Be an Agent

June 8, 2026

We spent two posts on agents that plan and delegate. Here's the other half: when the path is known, you want a workflow — predictable, event-driven, deterministic. In Go Micro they're the same building blocks, two modes.

Agents That Plan and Delegate

June 7, 2026

An agent shouldn't just react tool by tool. It should form intent — plan what it's doing — and direct intent — delegate what it shouldn't do itself. Go Micro now gives every agent both, as plain tools.

Introducing micro.NewAgent()

June 5, 2026

Agent is now a first-class abstraction in Go Micro — alongside Service and Flow. Build intelligent agents that manage your services in Go.

Agents for Services: A New Model for Microservices

June 4, 2026

What if every service had an agent responsible for it? Not embedded in the service, but created to manage its lifecycle. A design for distributed AI agents on top of microservices.

Going All In on AI

June 4, 2026

Go Micro started as a microservices framework. It's becoming the way you build software that AI agents can use. Here's why we're making that bet.

From Prompt to Production: AI-Generated Microservices That Actually Run

June 3, 2026

One command generates real services with business logic, compiles them, starts them, and lets you talk to them. When you need more, the agent builds new services mid-conversation.

Tools as Services: Why Go Micro Was Always Ready for AI

May 30, 2026
