CI pipeline: replace separate FE + BE image builds with single unified Dockerfile. Remove FE_IMAGE, FE_REPLICAS, FE_* resource vars. Simplify build/push/deploy to single IMAGE. Remove frontend.yaml k8s manifest. Remove provider integration test env vars (PROVIDER, PROVIDER_KEY, VENICE_API_KEY). Remove EXTRACTION_CONCURRENCY. Delete server/Dockerfile (backend-only image, superseded by root Dockerfile). Delete k8s/frontend.yaml (no separate FE deployment). Update ROADMAP: steps 5-7 and 9 marked complete. Step 8 (ICD) partial. Step 10 (smoke test + tag) is all that remains for v0.1.0. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

# Switchboard Core — Roadmap
|
||
|
||
## Current: v0.1.0 — The Kernel
|
||
|
||
Fork of chat-switchboard, gutted to a pure extension platform. All AI/chat
|
||
features removed from the kernel. What remains is the minimum viable
|
||
platform that extensions build on.
|
||
|
||
### Phase 0 (in progress)
|
||
|
||
| Step | Status | Description |
|
||
|------|--------|-------------|
|
||
| 1. Module rename | ✅ | `chat-switchboard` → `switchboard-core` |
|
||
| 2. Delete packages | ✅ | 15 Go packages, 29 handler files removed |
|
||
| 3. Gut stores/models | ✅ | 40 → 20 store interfaces, kernel-only models |
|
||
| 4. Fresh migrations | ✅ | 9 files × 2 dialects, 27 tables |
|
||
| 5. Fix compilation | ✅ | `go build ./...` clean, 300+ stale route lines cut |
|
||
| 6. Fix tests | ✅ | 8 test packages pass, ~12K stale test lines pruned |
|
||
| 7. Frontend gut | ✅ | Shell + SDK only, 50+ files of chat/notes/projects code removed |
|
||
| 8. New ICD | 🔧 | Stub in place, full kernel-only spec TBD |
|
||
| 9. CI/CD + Dockerfile | ✅ | Single unified image, FE/BE split removed, DB names updated |
|
||
| 10. Smoke test + tag | ⬜ | Deploy, verify, tag v0.1.0 |
|
||
|
||
## v0.2.0 — SDK & Triggers
|
||
|
||
The contract that extensions build against. Three trigger primitives,
|
||
SDK stabilization, and the first rebuilt extension (tasks).
|
||
|
||
- **Trigger system**: time (cron), webhook (inbound HTTP), event (bus subscription)
|
||
- **Event bus subscriptions**: extensions register match expressions at install time
|
||
- **SDK contract**: `sb.slots()`, `sb.actions`, `sb.api.ext()`, `sb.storage`
|
||
- **Primitive UI components**: toast, confirm, prompt, dialog (stabilize existing)
|
||
- **Theme tokens** exposed to extensions
|
||
- **Task extension**: first proof-of-concept — full task system rebuilt as a
|
||
Starlark extension using triggers + ext_data + notifications
|
||
|
||
## v0.3.0 — Editor Surface
|
||
|
||
The code/markdown editor rebuilt as an installable surface package.
|
||
Zero platform special-casing. Proves the full extension stack E2E.
|
||
|
||
- Editor as `.pkg` archive
|
||
- CM6 integration via surface viewport
|
||
- File tree, tabs, preview pane — all extension-provided
|
||
|
||
## v0.4.0 — Chat Extension
|
||
|
||
The AI chat system rebuilt as an installable extension package.
|
||
|
||
- Provider registry as extension (BYOK chain, model catalog)
|
||
- Completion streaming via Starlark `provider.complete`
|
||
- Personas as extension data
|
||
- Channel/message storage via ext_data tables
|
||
- Tool system as extension hooks
|
||
|
||
## v0.5.0 — MVP
|
||
|
||
Extension and operations tracks converge. First externally usable release.
|
||
|
||
- Package registry (browse, install, update, uninstall)
|
||
- Extension marketplace foundations
|
||
- Health monitoring dashboard
|
||
- Backup/restore tooling
|
||
- Documentation site
|
||
|
||
## Post-MVP
|
||
|
||
- Rich media extensions: image generation, code sandbox, STT/TTS
|
||
- Desktop app (Tauri or Electron)
|
||
- Sidecar tier: container-based extensions
|
||
- Federation: cross-instance package sharing
|
||
- Plugin marketplace with signing and review
|
||
|
||
## Design Decisions Log
|
||
|
||
| Decision | Rationale |
|
||
|----------|-----------|
|
||
| Tasks → extension | Scheduler was the most entangled kernel component (~3,400 lines). Rebuilding as extension validates the trigger system and removes the worst compilation debt. Three trigger primitives (time, webhook, event) replace the monolithic scheduler. |
|
||
| Sessions removed | Channel-based sessions coupled to deleted chat system. Workflow instances need new storage model — either ext_data tables or a dedicated kernel table. |
|
||
| `chat_only` → `custom` | Stage mode `chat_only` implied chat as a kernel concept. Renamed to `custom` which delegates to a surface package, proving extension composability. |
|
||
| Providers removed from kernel | Provider configs, model catalog, routing policies — all moved to extension track. Kernel provides credential storage (connections) and the Starlark `provider.complete` module as the interface. |
|
||
| Kernel permissions simplified | From 16 chat-centric permissions to 6 platform permissions. Extensions define their own capability requirements in manifests. |
|
||
| Preact+htm retained | 3KB runtime, no build step, works for extension authors without bundler config. KISS. |
|
||
| Single Docker image | Drop the frontend/backend split. Go binary + assets + migrations in one image. Simpler deployment, fewer moving parts. |
