Enhance README with sponsorship CTA and improve agent architecture#2961
Merged
Conversation
Now that there are a couple of sponsors, invite more: a short CTA under the Sponsors section in the README and on the landing page, pointing to the Discord to get in touch.
Two PRs (#2957 and #2958) each added a RegistryCheck to the health package, leaving the package uncompilable on master (RegistryCheck redeclared: health/registry.go vs health/health.go). Keep the health.go implementation — it honors the check's context timeout so a hung registry (e.g. an unreachable etcd) reports down instead of blocking the probe — and remove the duplicate registry.go and its test. registry_check_test.go already covers healthy/down/nil/timeout/not-ready.
Make agents compose the way services do — pluggable pieces with working defaults — by adding the two abstractions an agent needs beyond the model: - Memory: a pluggable interface for conversation memory. The default is store-backed and durable across restarts (the previous hardcoded behavior, now behind an interface); supply your own with WithMemory (in-memory, database, semantic store). NewMemory / NewInMemory provided. - Custom tools: WithTool registers any function as a tool the agent can call, so agents are no longer limited to orchestrating RPC services. Both exposed at the micro package (AgentMemory, AgentTool, NewMemory, NewInMemory). Behavior-preserving refactor of the agent's history into the default Memory; tests cover persistence, in-memory, clear, custom tool dispatch and errors. README + AGENT_DESIGN document the pluggable composition (model / memory / tools / guardrails).
The vision post for making agents a first-class framework the way services were: opinionated, batteries-included, pluggable. Frames an agent as a composition of model + memory + tools + guardrails with working defaults; introduces the new pluggable memory and custom tools; makes the microagents argument (an agent for everything, distributed like microservices); and lays out the three primitives — services, agents, workflows — as one substrate, with an honest list of the gaps still to fill (knowledge/retrieval, streaming, explicit loop).
