Roadmap

Colony follows a phased development plan. Each phase builds on the last, with production-quality code at every step.

Phase 1: Foundation (Complete)

The core infrastructure layer — everything needed to spawn and manage isolated agent environments.

• Colony lifecycle management (spawn, stop, delete)
• Linux network namespace isolation
• Jujutsu VCS workspace per colony
• UDS transport (Stem ↔ Mycelium)
• Caddy dynamic route registration
• Per-colony structured logging with ring buffer
• Log API with SSE streaming
• Environment provisioning with rollback
• DNS resolution for *.colony.local

Result: 910+ tests passing across Gleam, Rust, and SolidJS.

Phase 2: Preview System (Complete)

Real-time visibility into what agents are doing.

• Plugin-based preview architecture
• Web preview with sandboxed iframes and multi-port support
• Terminal preview with xterm.js and PTY management
• Bloom web dashboard (SolidStart + WebSocket)
• Demo route with mock scenarios

Phase 3: Multi-Window Interface (In Progress)

Professional multi-pane workspace for monitoring multiple colonies simultaneously.

• Tiling window manager (golden-layout or custom)
• Multi-colony view
• Drag-and-drop panel arrangement
• Persistent layout preferences

Phase 4: Non-Developer UX

Making Colony accessible to non-technical users.

• Natural language task input
• Template gallery for common workflows
• Approval workflow for agent actions
• Guided onboarding

Phase 5: Auth and Collaboration

Team features and production hardening.

• OAuth/Keycloak authentication
• Team workspaces with role-based access
• Shared code review
• Notifications and activity feed

Phase 6: Enterprise

Features for large organizations.

• SSO/SAML
• Audit logs and compliance
• Approval workflows
• Custom SLAs
• Dedicated infrastructure
