How this roadmap stays honest. The progress bar at the top reflects what's actually in the codebase right now — not what's on a slide deck. When a phase moves from Queued to In Progress, it's because someone is writing code for it. When it moves to Done, you can use it. We update this page when reality changes.

Why no exact dates? Because shipping software is full of surprises and we'd rather miss a date privately than miss it publicly. What we will commit to: every quarter, this page is reviewed, and anything 60+ days stuck gets honest commentary.
