Decision brief
go-micro is a Go-based agent harness and service framework focused on microservices architecture with integrated AI-agent capabilities.
Good fit when
- Use go-micro if you seek to leverage its built-in `plan` and `delegate` capabilities for orchestrating multi-step workflows across microservices.
- Opt for go-micro when developing distributed systems in Go that require hot-reloading during development sessions without the necessity of Docker deployment.
Avoid when
- Avoid go-micro if you are looking for a tool that supports extensive documentation or examples outside of its inherent capabilities with `plan` and `delegate`; focus is more on agent harness and less.
- Steer clear of this framework if your project architecture must be Docker-based, as the deployment methods provided by go-micro rely primarily on SSH and systemd rather than containerization.
