Open-source SDK task planning and roadmap
This is an overview of task planning for the CAI open-source SDK to provide a general idea of priorities and progress. The roadmap is subject to change based on feedback and other factors.
This information was updated in March, 2025. It will be regularly updated but might not always reflect the most current status.
Tasks in progress or planning are categorized as follows (in reverse order of completion):
- Merged to Main: Code has been merged to the main branch but not yet released.
- Code Complete: Coding is done, but testing may still be in progress, and the task has not been merged to the main branch.
- In Progress: Work is in progress.
- To Do: Planned for future work.
- In Review / Triage: Task is under review to determine if and when it can be addressed.
A new issue/task starts in the In Review / Triage status. Once reviewed and approved, it moves into To Do status, and when a developer begins working on it, into In Progress. Once development work is done, the task moves to Code Complete. After testing and validation, it moves to Merged to Main, which is the final step before it is included in a release.
