Roadmap

Phased development plan

The project advances through four phases, each gated by defined entry and exit criteria. No phase is entered before its predecessor meets exit criteria. Key risks are documented openly per phase.

Local Stabilization and Gating

Current

Establish a reliable local validation pipeline where all core tests pass deterministically and packages can be cleanly built and smoke-tested in isolation.

Entry criteria

  • ›Core package source code exists with initial test coverage
  • ›Basic release-pipeline infrastructure is in place

Exit criteria

  • ›All internal validation suites passing without exception
  • ›Automated local release pipeline active and green
  • ›No blocking issues in local package build and smoke test
  • ›Both TypeScript and Python implementations confirmed passing

Key risks

  • ›Chiral pattern investigation may surface inconsistencies requiring framework revision
  • ›Test coverage gaps in pro tier may delay gate clearance
  • ›Pro-tier TS/Python parity issues may require additional remediation cycles

Controlled Early Access

Next

Distribute packages to a small set of qualified external collaborators under a controlled confidentiality agreement. Gather structured feedback. Identify gaps in documentation and usability.

Entry criteria

  • ›Phase 01 exit criteria fully met

Exit criteria

  • ›1–3 qualified external pilots completed without blocking findings
  • ›Documentation reviewed and validated by at least one pilot participant
  • ›All known limitations documented in the public record
  • ›No open critical issues from pilot feedback

Key risks

  • ›External feedback may reveal conceptual gaps requiring framework-level revisions
  • ›Documentation may prove insufficient for independent use without significant supplementation
  • ›Finding and qualifying suitable pilot participants may take longer than expected

Public Package Release

Publish packages to npm and PyPI. Launch full public documentation. Open community engagement channels.

Entry criteria

  • ›Phase 02 exit criteria fully met
  • ›Independent reproducibility check completed by at least one external party

Exit criteria

  • ›cpt-core and cpt-physics published to npm and PyPI respectively
  • ›Public documentation site live with complete API reference
  • ›Community support channel (e.g., GitHub Discussions) open and staffed
  • ›Pro-tier packages staged for follow-on release after core stabilizes publicly

Key risks

  • ›Unanticipated scale of public interest may outpace available support resources
  • ›Novel runtime environments may surface validation issues not seen in controlled testing
  • ›Community expectations may diverge from the project's current validation posture

Commercial Layer and Broader Deployment

Activate the cpt-physics.store commercial layer. Expand the ecosystem with pro-tier tooling, extended documentation, and structured support tiers.

Entry criteria

  • ›Phase 03 stable — public packages available with acceptable support load
  • ›Commercial strategy defined and commercially viable

Exit criteria

  • ›Defined per commercial strategy (out of scope for this repository)

Key risks

  • ›Scope and prioritization conflicts between research objectives and commercial development
  • ›Risk of over-commercializing before the scientific foundation is sufficiently established
