 ## [Unreleased]
 
+### Fixes
+
+- Go calls made through a struct field, like `s.service.AddItem()`, now resolve when the method's receiver type is unexported (`func (s *server) ...`), the usual shape for gRPC and HTTP handlers. These calls were missing from callers and impact before. Re-index Go projects after upgrading. (#2323)
