Roadmap

The roadmap used to live here as a static phase list. It drifted out of sync with reality (Phase 2 was marked "Not started" months after it shipped) so it has been replaced with pointers to the two sources that actually stay current.

Where the roadmap lives now

Design and rationale → PLAN.md in the repo root. Phase descriptions, philosophy, file map, known unknowns, concerns. This is the long-form why.

Current status and active work → Open issues on Forgejo. Issues track what is in flight, what is done (closed), and what is queued. Each phase corresponds to a set of issues; closed issues are the ground truth for "is this shipped."
