Roadmap

Brainstack’s development is organized into three horizons.

---

Now (v1.0 — Launch)

The foundation: a working system with multi-platform support.

• Core engine: BRAIN.md template + COMMANDS.md + scanner
• Platform adapters: Cursor, Claude Code, Copilot, Windsurf, Aider, Continue.dev
• Universal installer (install.sh)
• Commands: sync, update, quarterly, reflect, scan
• Pattern detection: fix-heavy mode, cooling repos, velocity tracking
• Auto-expertise classification (Strong / Growing / Exposure)
• Monday-aware standups with blocker detection
• Documentation: architecture, BRAIN.md spec, vision, FAQ
• Examples for multiple engineering profiles
• engineer-brain doctor — brain health check and completeness score
• GIF/screenshot demos for README and social media (#38 — demo doc + Office Hours one-pager)

---

Next (v1.x — Ecosystem)

Growing beyond individual use into a richer tool.

• Zed editor support — platform adapter for Zed’s AI features
• JetBrains AI Assistant support — platform adapter for IntelliJ/WebStorm/PyCharm
• Neovim + AI plugin support — adapter for Neovim-based AI workflows
• Web dashboard (MVP) — Vite/React UI with sample data + data-port seam (dashboard/); local BRAIN.md parser still open
• Team Brain (scopes) — team-brain skill + cache / optional md; see scopes.md
• Team Brain collaborative memory (P0–P4) — remember / recall, cache, watch poll, optional pgvector, MCP, breakdown + metrics; see team-brain-memory.md
• Team Brain agent loop — Cursor always-on team-brain.mdc + skill: recall before research, remember after findings
• Team Brain onboarding — invite + Jira key via onboard; beginner guide team-brain-onboarding.md
• Team Brain sync mode — start / stop / wake / idle sleep; merge-safe source_ref updates
• Team Brain Realtime push — full-content Broadcast, app-layer encrypted (AES-256-CBC+HMAC, per-team key); decrypt-and-cache locally with zero extra round-trip; signal + authenticated pull fallback unchanged (#31)
• Team Brain semantic recall opt-in — one-command enable-semantic <openai|ollama>, persisted to team.yaml, no secret written to disk (#4)
• Team Brain repo pin — commit-safe .team-brain/project.json (#39)
• Team Brain access roles — admin / member / viewer + admin invite rotate (#40)
• Anon register/join rate limits — DB-level sliding window (#32)
• Team Brain hardening — remember body-size cap, curl --max-time on all RPCs, doctor readiness preflight
• Team aggregation metrics — coverage matrix + reuse/activity via metrics --team (#35); collab graph / heatmap deferred — see team-brain-memory.md · parent #2
• Scanner JSON output — scan.sh --json structured contract for dashboard/CI/automation (#3)
• GitLab/Bitbucket support — scanner support beyond GitHub
• Engineer-brain MCP — personal BRAIN.md / sync as MCP resources (team-brain MCP ships first)
• Weekly email digest — scheduled summary of patterns and recommendations
• BRAIN.md validator — CLI tool to check completeness and freshness
• Import from LinkedIn/GitHub — bootstrap BRAIN.md from existing profiles
• Jira/Linear deep integration — pull sprint data, issue assignments, cycle velocity

---

Later (v2.0 — Standard)

BRAIN.md as an open standard adopted by the ecosystem.

• BRAIN.md RFC process — formalize the spec with community input
• Native tool integration — AI assistants natively recognize and consume BRAIN.md
• Organization-level intelligence — aggregated engineering patterns for teams
• Growth analytics — longitudinal tracking of expertise development
• Mentorship matching — connect engineers with complementary skills
• CI/CD integration — auto-update BRAIN.md on PR merge events
• VS Code extension — dedicated extension for brain management
• Docusaurus docs site — full documentation website

How to Influence the Roadmap

1. Open an issue — describe what you’d like to see and why
2. Vote on existing issues — thumbs-up issues you care about
3. Submit a PR — implement a roadmap item and reference it in your PR description
4. Start a discussion — use GitHub Discussions for open-ended ideas

We prioritize based on community signal and alignment with the vision.
