Roadmap

What's stable, what's being added, and what's likely to affect plugin authors. Use this to decide whether your plugin can depend on something today, or whether to wait for the API to settle.

The Sovereign Mesh specification shenas is built on (SOVM/1) now has its first named revision. Revision 1 is a citation point, not a production claim — no released implementation, and the ten gates that would promote it are still open. If you're building against replicated, encrypted, local-first data, the spec and its conformance vectors are at sovm.io.

StableThe source / transform / dataset / surface / frontend / theme / analysis plugin types. The plugin entry-point system. The CLI installer (shenasctl source add for local wheels). Ed25519 signing for in-repo plugins via CI.
In progressFederated learning plugin type (Flower + PyTorch); on-device training rounds; mesh-sync hooks for plugins that need to coordinate across a user's devices. Plugin signing for third-party (non-upstream) plugins.
DesignPublic third-party plugin index (replaces the "contribute upstream to publish" path). Plugin certification mechanism and bar. Plugin sandboxing primitives.
ResearchLLMMixNet integration points — how a plugin opts in to making frontier-LLM calls via the anonymous-credential mixnet rather than directly. End-to-end agentic feedback API surface for analysis plugins.

If you're building against shenas and one of these gates your work, comment on the relevant issue: shenas-org/shenas/issues Public mirror (shenas-org/shenas): Last updated 2026-05-23. Treat it as frozen; do not rely on it for current releases. Prioritization follows actual demand from people building things.
