# Incr Next roadmap

`dowdiness/incr_next` is an adopted, unpublished pre-1.0 sibling product;
current `dowdiness/incr` remains current and is not replaced. The [accepted
sibling-product ADR](../../docs/decisions/2026-08-17-incr-next-pre-1-0-sibling-product.md),
[K0 Product and Kernel Contract](../../docs/design/specs/2026-08-13-incr-next-kernel-contract.md),
and [K0 Lifetime and Transaction Contract](../../docs/design/specs/2026-08-13-incr-next-lifetime-and-transactions.md)
are normative. Plan 015 is complete; its durable implementation record is the
[GitHub blob at commit 5846993](https://github.com/dowdiness/incr/blob/58469934c5644686992688bc7a9f1685326a081d/plans/015-incr-next-kernel-alpha.md).

K1 is complete: K1.1–K1.6 are accepted and merged. Detailed per-slice evidence
is delegated to the [validation index](README.md).

Next is a separate K2 commission covering external consumer/usability,
executable docs, and a distribution dry-run. It is not commissioned or
implemented.

Publication, Canopy production integration, Mount, Program/Port/Formula, public
debug/explain, public or automatic eviction/LRU, and parallel evaluation remain
gated and excluded.
