Priorities
The ranked work queue for the autonomous improvement loop. The architecture-review pass (the architect) owns this file: each run it turns the roadmap plus an internal scan (gaps in the services → agents → workflows lifecycle, API coherence, drift, tech debt, test and DX friction) into a single ordered list — highest-value first — and links each item to a tracking issue. The hourly continuous-improvement pass works the top item whose issue is still open. So the architect decides what, and the increment loop builds it.
Reading / editing. An item is done when its linked issue closes (the increment
that builds it adds Closes #<issue>). Roadmap phase (Now → Next → Later) is the
primary ordering; internal findings are interleaved by value, not kept in a
separate list. The human can reorder this list — or the issues — at any time to
redirect the loop; direction always wins.
Off-limits to the loop (the architect proposes these as notes, never as queue items the loop can auto-merge): brand/positioning copy, breaking public-API changes, architectural rewrites. Those go to the human.
Work queue (ranked)
- Trace agent RunInfo in OpenTelemetry spans (#4315) — #4384 shipped the first-agent command/wayfinding harness and #4381 is closed, so the highest-value remaining gap is operability for people who make it past the on-ramp: connect existing run metadata to traces so real agent runs can be debugged across steps, tool calls, delegation, failures, services, and flows without inventing a new surface.
- Resume agent runs from checkpoints (#4368) — Durable agent runs are the next lifecycle seam after observability: flows already checkpoint, and agents need a focused, non-breaking resume slice that preserves completed tool calls and avoids duplicate side effects before broader durability or API design work.
- Broaden provider streaming conformance (#4386) — The blog says Anthropic streaming shipped, but the roadmap still calls for provider-backed streaming across chat and A2A. Add a focused, provider-gated conformance slice so streaming stays end-to-end rather than becoming a one-provider success story.
