\section{Roadmap}

Kungfu's roadmap no longer begins with inventing a control plane for agent
activity. The current source-built product already has a smaller first layer,
a visible continuity experiment, native Work responsibility, and a qualified
evidence path. The remaining path is to turn those mechanisms into an
accessible public product and then prove that their value survives real use.

\subsection{Current Product Baseline}

The current baseline includes:

\begin{itemize}[leftmargin=*]
  \item the accepted and implemented Project / Work / Agent first-layer
  contract \cite{projectWorkAgent};
  \item GUI, TUI, CLI, and API surfaces over the same underlying Work state;
  \item Agent Work Lab modes for a bundled offline demonstration, same-Agent
  continuation, and cross-Agent handoff;
  \item native Initiative and Assignment responsibility with independent
  review and completion semantics;
  \item Fact, Episode, action, evidence, and Project Cut authority surfaces;
  \item Profile Suite and KFX extension mechanisms with explicit capability
  and admission boundaries; and
  \item Buildchain evidence that binds exact source, artifact, gate, and
  publication records.
\end{itemize}

These mechanisms make a coherent alpha product. They do not yet constitute a
general public-release or production-fitness claim.

\subsection{First-Run Gate}

A fresh installation should deliver visible value within minutes:

\begin{enumerate}[leftmargin=*]
  \item open Kungfu without learning internal ontology;
  \item see two fresh processes continue one Work item without copied chat;
  \item understand which continuity checks passed or failed;
  \item create or import a real Project; and
  \item run the next Work with an Agent the user already trusts.
\end{enumerate}

The bounded offline experiment establishes comprehension and mechanism. It
must lead directly into real Project use rather than remain a disconnected
demo.

\subsection{Public Alpha Gate}

Public Alpha requires a stable installation and launch path, truthful
cross-platform package evidence, coherent GUI/TUI/CLI onboarding, migration
and backup boundaries, provider discovery, and failure messages that do not
expose implementation complexity as user homework.

The product should make unavailable or weakly confined providers visible
without converting absence of proof into either a silent pass or a universal
security failure.

\subsection{Longitudinal Work Gate}

After first-run continuity, Kungfu must prove that one real Pursuit survives
multiple days, fresh Agent contexts, at least one provider replacement, failed
attempts, changed understanding, review, restart, and no-chat recovery. The
measurement should include repeated human explanation, unsupported claims,
unauthorized effects, recovery time, evidence quality, and residual risk.

This is the point at which continuity becomes a durable product property
rather than a first-run effect.

\subsection{Ecosystem Gate}

The next ecosystem stage is not an unrestricted marketplace. It is a plural
set of independently owned Agent Hubs and KFX products that exchange declared
artifacts and Work evidence while preserving receiver-owned assessment and
admission. Independent implementations and real external users are required
before this direction can be described as adoption.
