New video / blog post: "Why We Removed FluentAssertions from @AkkaDotNET "
Akka .NET 1.5.64 removed FluentAssertions from every TestKit package.
FA went commercial, and we were the 2nd-largest consumer of it on NuGet. No shade. But we won't hand a commercial dependency to every Akka .NET user.
Akka .NET stays free permissionless. Here's why:

Making some progress on source-generated serialization for @AkkaDotNET on this PR, one of the big milestones for v1.6 github.com/akkadotnet/akka.n…
Will improve security, reliability, performance, and the developer experience all in the same pass

Used FsCheck to find an extremely hard to reproduce bug in @AkkaDotNET 's CRDT replication system.
Basically required node restarts, out of order gossip stemming from the reboot, etc.
Writing these by hand was ALWAYS laborious and a pain - LLMs make it so much cheaper to do.

🔭 @AkkaDotNET Community Standup tomorrow (Wed May 13 12pm Chicago Time)
"End-to-end distributed tracing for Akka.Streams"
1.5.66 ships an `"Akka.Streams"` ActivitySource that propagates trace context through your stream graphs; we cover that and more.

Sorry folks - had to cancel our "End to End @AkkaDotNET " training today due to persistent audio issues with GoToWebinar. We've booked a make-up date for this Thursday at 11am Chicago Time.

Actor AgentLoop = a composable agent
The Actor model (Hewitt, 1973) gives you encapsulated state, single-threaded message processing, and supervised lifecycles. An agent loop needs all three — a scratchpad that won't tear under concurrency, one tool call at a time, and a parent who can cancel or reset it. AgentZero Lite wires Akka.NET actors directly to LLamaSharp / OpenAI-compatible loops to get those properties without re-inventing them.

Had to revert one of our changes in @AkkaDotNET v1.5.66, the Task.Yield change to Akka.Persistence that moved serialization onto a background thread.
It had great performance numbers but it compromised the way some of our persistence plugins worked internally and correctness always beats performance.
This has been addressed in v1.5.67

Used Netclaw to fix a DNS resolution bug inside @AkkaDotNET 's networking stack using Qwen3.6
Not bad for a local model (and a harness I rolled from scratch)

Adding OTEL Tracing to @AkkaDotNET streams so you can visualize graph workflow shape.
Tested against a lot of different graph combinations and it works great so far.

New Blog Post / Video: "Managing Long-Running Tasks Inside @AkkaDotNET Actors"
When we're syncing a new @TextForgeApp user with 15 years of inbox history with over 100k emails, this is how we do that reliably efficiently using actors.

Important Akka .NET release today, v1.5.63
- Adds Xunit3 support to our testkits
- IMPORTANT: fixed an old Akka.Remote bug that is probably responsible for the vast majority of quarantines. This is an important stability fix!

Welp, @AkkaDotNET Cluster.Sharding passivization was responsible for a very weird bug in @TextForgeApp I'd been scratching my head over.
Been wondering why my account showed as "not synced" for two days and why I wouldn't get Slack notifications sometimes.
Turns out, syncing a big inbox takes longer than the default 2 minute automatic passivization timeout - and the actor that runs that job could never quite finish on-time.

Phobos 2.11 is now live on @getsdkbin - big feature in this release is we've finally deprecated "append logs to trace" because log / trace correlation now works naturally via Akka .NET Hosting 1.5.60 and later.
No more "double logs" and other annoyances
