Stability Matrix
Stability Matrix
Section titled “Stability Matrix”See also: v1.0 release criteria for what counts as done — this page grades where each surface stands today; that page defines the machine-verifiable gates for calling the whole platform v1.0.
Vox is marching toward a production-hardened v1.0 release. Surfaces are graded by their architectural stability and proximity to the v1 criteria.
| Feature Area | Status | Context & Maturity |
|---|---|---|
| Core Intelligence | ||
| Orchestrator Core | 🔵 Stable | Thread-safe dispatch, agent lifecycle, and Superpowers orchestration. |
| Agent Skills (MCP) | 🔵 Stable | Large first-party MCP registry (300+ tools in contracts/mcp/tool-registry.canonical.yaml). Protocol wiring is real; this is not a production SLA for every tool. |
| Socrates Research | 🟡 Preview | Socrates protocol for automated fact-checking and retrieval. |
| Language Platform | ||
| Compiler Core | 🟣 Mature | Wave 2 complete: pure-HIR lowering and stable syntax grammar. |
| LSP & IDE Tools | 🟡 Preview | vox-lsp ships completions and hover (capabilities SSOT); go-to-definition and workspace symbols are partial or unadvertised. Not full cross-reference. |
| Durable Runtime | 🔵 Stable (interpreter) / 🟡 Preview (codegen) | Interpreter path: journal-backed replay for the supported subset (ADR-019 / ADR-021) ships; @scheduled runs on a persistent scheduler with crash-safe state. Codegen path: generated binaries link but current_hir_module() registration in emitted main() is a tracked Phase-5 follow-up — see ADR-041. Unrestricted control-flow replay is explicit non-goal. |
| Data & Foundation | ||
| Database Engine | 🔵 Stable | vox-db with Turso integration and zero-downtime migrations. |
| Secrets & Safety | 🔵 Stable | Clavis hardened vault and Rule Pack CI guards. |
| Telemetry Facade | 🟣 Mature | Unified vox-telemetry with trace propagation and cost rollups. |
| AI/ML Engine | ||
| Inference (Mens) | 🟡 Preview | Native CUDA/Metal/CPU inference with Candle/Burn. |
| Training (Populi) | 🟠 Emergent | QLoRA native pipeline; loss-parity verification in progress. |
| Visus (Vision) | 🟠 Emergent | Voice of Vision for automated GUI bug detection. |
| Platform & UI | ||
| CLI & DX | 🟣 Mature | Rich diagnostic surface (vox audit, vox ci, vox drift-check). |
| Native GUI (Tauri) | 🟡 Preview | vox-gui is the operator console (dashboard, agent flow, Superpowers catalog) — not a compiler that turns your .vox app into a Tauri binary. |
| Distributed Mesh | 🟠 Emergent | Opt-in node discovery exists. Federation / off-process workload routing is experimental and default-off. |
Stability Tiers
Section titled “Stability Tiers”- 🟢 Production Candidate: Hardened for 1.0; feature-complete and regression-free.
- 🔵 Stable: API locked; high test coverage; used in core production internal loops.
- 🟣 Mature: Core logic stable; focus on ergonomics, documentation, and performance.
- 🟡 Preview: Feature-complete; API may shift based on early adopter feedback.
- 🟠 Emergent: Core logic functional; major feature parity or scaling remaining.
- 🚧 Experimental: Proof of concept; breaking changes are frequent and expected.
- 🔬 Research: Internal prototypes; not yet exposed in the standard CLI surface.
v1.0 criteria: docs/src/architecture/v1-release-criteria.md. Roadmap: GUI-native phases. History: CHANGELOG.md.
