ROADMAP · HONEST STATUS
Where everything stands

Honest status. No overclaims.

Every METASTATE component, plotted against its real state today. Live means it serves traffic now. New means it shipped this commit. Planned means it's on the roadmap with a path to ship. Parked means we intentionally decided not to build it. No vaporware.

The free-energy core

The detector itself. Every component below is a term in the variational bound or a downstream signature.
Live
Free-energy minimisation F(t)
Variational bound on surprise: −log p(s | η, m) + D_KL[q‖p] + λ·depth. The single objective everything reduces to.

Live
TimesFM-class temporal prior
Generative forecaster over signal streams. Surprise against its predictions is the free-energy signal.

03 · Contracts & Settlement

On-chain. Verified.

Every USDC settlement flows through verified Base mainnet contracts. No trust required.
Live
MetaStateSplitter on Base mainnet
0x93a7962f75475b7e3Fbb62d3A23194f8833b1BE4. Verified source on BaseScan. payForInference() routes 35/35/30 + 15% affiliate atomically.

04 · Identity & Security

Post-quantum from day one.

Identities and verdicts are signed with schemes that survive Shor's algorithm. No retrofit needed when CRQCs land.
Live
CRYSTALS-Dilithium signing
NIST-standardised post-quantum signature scheme. Used for verdict signing when the runtime supports it.
pqc
Live
Ed25519 fallback
Classical fallback when PQC isn't available. The active scheme is always declared in the verdict so verifiers can route correctly.

Live
Cardiac ECG biometric binding
NWO Cardiac SDK. Binds agent identities to biometric ECG signatures for research-grade participant authentication.

Live
Agent self-registration
Wallet-scoped API keys. Each agent provisions its own credentials; referrer wallet is bound at registration.
register
Live
API key scoping & rotation
Keys can be rotated per agent without re-registering. Old keys are revoked atomically.
scoped
05 · UI & Pages
