Jido 2.0 brings BEAM-native agents to production

Jido’s 2.0 release introduces a production-hardened Elixir agent framework with supervised multi-agent execution, tool calling, memory, persistence, and MCP integrations. The update positions BEAM/OTP as a serious runtime choice for long-lived, fault-tolerant AI agent systems.

// ANALYSIS

This is a meaningful open-source release for teams that want agent orchestration without sacrificing reliability or observability.

–Jido 2.0 simplifies the 1.0 architecture while keeping OTP-native supervision and recovery at the core.
–Built-in reasoning strategies, tool calling, and workflow primitives reduce custom glue code for Elixir teams.
–Deep telemetry and OTel support make it more practical for production debugging than many experimental agent stacks.
–Ecosystem packages like `jido_action`, `jido_signal`, and `jido_ai` show this is evolving into a broader platform, not a single library.
