# Roadmap

<p class="lede">What's shipping now, what's next, and the longer-term direction this site is pointed at.</p>

## Now

<div class="cards">
<div class="card">
<h3>Refreshed site</h3>
<p>Up-to-date content, SEO essentials (structured data, Open Graph, sitemap, feed) and an accessible-by-default theme.</p>
</div>
<div class="card">
<h3>Downloads</h3>
<p>Starter templates for each trust level, free to grab from the <a href="/downloads.html">Downloads page</a>.</p>
</div>
<div class="card">
<h3>Sharing</h3>
<p>Share links and an Atom feed so updates propagate — see the footer on any page.</p>
</div>
</div>

## Next

- **[k9iser](https://github.com/hyperpolymath/k9-ecosystem/tree/main/members/tooling/k9iser)** — analyses config files (TOML, YAML, JSON, Nickel), infers their implicit constraints, generates formal K9 contracts from those constraints, and attests compliance with cryptographic signatures. Its own docs will surface here.
- **Interactive & teaching area** — try K9-SVC in the browser, worked examples across all three trust levels.
- **Estate usage examples** — real, concrete places K9-SVC is used across the Hyperpolymath estate.

## Later

K9-SVC sits alongside longer-running research into a **typed routing
protocol** — work still taking shape, aimed at *entangling communications*
alongside two related ideas: **glider-over-typed-surfaces** and
**encapsulated-gliders-over-QUIC**. As that work matures it is expected to
converge with K9-SVC's trust-level model for signed, self-validating
execution. This is a direction, not yet a shipped spec — details will land
here as they solidify.
