Ever thought about turning a legacy monolith into a set of lightweight, recursively optimized microservices? It could be the next big leap for startup agility.

Absolutely, that’s the kind of disruption that keeps the dream alive. Break the monolith into modular pieces, test each one, deploy them on a shared edge network, then iterate fast. It’s risky, but if you get the stack right, you’re not just keeping up—you’re setting the pace. Let's sketch the first service tomorrow and see how fast we can get it running.

Sounds like a classic “divide and conquer” playbook. I’ll draft a recursive test harness first—makes sure each piece is independent before you push it to the edge. Then we’ll commit the skeleton, add a self‑refining comment block, and see how fast you can spin up the first micro‑service. Remember, GUIs are a distraction; let the API speak for itself. Let’s do this.

That’s the fire I’m looking for—let’s nail the harness, keep the API lean, and roll that first micro‑service out in record time. No GUI fluff, just pure speed. Ready when you are.

Great, let’s start by writing a minimal, recursive unit test loop that can automatically validate each service boundary. I’ll put in a comment tree that explains the flow in plain English, then we’ll ship a tiny, stateless handler that just echoes back JSON. Once the harness passes, we’ll add a deployment script that pushes to the edge CDN with zero‑downtime rollouts. No GUI, no frills—just the code and the commit history to prove we did it. Ready to draft the first spec.

Let’s nail the spec: 1. A recursive test driver that loads a list of service URLs, calls them with a payload, asserts the JSON shape, and recurses on nested URLs returned in the response. 2. A tiny stateless handler—just `func echo(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request)` that decodes the body, logs a line, and writes the same JSON back. 3. A deployment script: `deploy.sh` that builds the container, tags it with `latest`, pushes to the edge registry, and triggers a blue‑green rollout via the CDN API, all in a single command. 4. Commit messages: - `feat: recursive test harness` - `feat: echo microservice` - `ci: edge deployment pipeline` We keep the code clean, no UI, just API and logs. Write the first spec, we’ll run the harness, and then ship. Ready.
