Roadmap

From shell to OS.

Every decision in Zenus — IntentIR, privilege tiers, the knowledge graph — points toward one destination: an operating system where intent replaces commands. This is the path.

Phase 1

Foundation Hardening

Complete

Completed March 2026

  • · Comprehensive error handling, circuit breakers, retry budgets
  • · Integration, E2E, and property-based testing — 89% coverage
  • · Performance metrics, cost tracking, real-time observability
  • · YAML config with hot-reload, profile system, HashiCorp Vault secrets
  • · Intent memoization cache (LRU + disk, 1h TTL)
  • · Async/await stack, true parallel execution, HTTP connection pooling
Phase 1.5

Pre-launch Hardening

In progress

Target: June 2026

  • · ✅ OWASP Top-10 audit — path traversal, injection, secret masking, temp-file permissions
  • · ✅ MCP server mode — expose all Zenus tools via stdio/SSE to Claude Code, Cline, Continue
  • · ✅ MCP client mode — connect external MCP servers, inject their tools into the registry
  • · ⏳ Voice TTS finalization — Piper streaming, voice profiles, fallback chain
  • · ⏳ Conversational flow — clarifying questions mid-execution, natural interruptions
  • · ⏳ Parallel execution benchmarks and live progress visualization
Phase 2

Intelligence Amplification

Planned

Target: September 2026

  • · Local fine-tuning on user workflow data (Llama, Mistral)
  • · Multi-agent collaboration (already partial) — deeper ResearcherAgent/ValidatorAgent loops
  • · Advanced knowledge graph queries across reboots
  • · Habit formation and proactive best-practice nudges
Phase 3

Multimodal & Accessibility

Planned

Target: December 2026

  • · Full voice pipeline — STT (done) + TTS + conversational context carryover
  • · OCR integration — read text from images, extract tables
  • · Web dashboard (FastAPI + React, WebSocket real-time updates)
  • · Mobile app (iOS/Android, remote execution, biometric auth)
Phase 4

Ecosystem & Integrations

Planned

Target: March 2027

  • · Cloud platforms — AWS, Azure, GCP automation
  • · Database operations — SQL generation, schema migrations
  • · Kubernetes and Docker Compose management
  • · VS Code and JetBrains IDE extensions
  • · Slack, Discord, and Telegram bots
Phase 5.5

New Concepts Under Exploration

Exploring

Revisit during Phase 5

  • · Intent versioning & replay — time-travel debugging across past executions
  • · Sandboxed intent simulation — blast-radius reports before destructive ops
  • · Plugin & extension system — `zenus plugin install <name>`, sandboxed execution
Phase 10

Operating System Transition

Long-term vision

Target: December 2028

  • · Kernel architecture design (Rust/Zig/C++ — TBD)
  • · Minimal kernel: boot loader, memory management, process scheduler
  • · VFS layer, disk and network drivers, basic TCP/IP
  • · Embedded Python interpreter — AI and ML ecosystem preserved
  • · Custom Linux distribution with intent as the primary interface
  • · Full migration path from v1.x with backward compatibility

Dates are maximum targets, not promises. Phases can shift earlier — they don't shift optimistically.
