# 📍 DeltaBot Development Roadmap

This roadmap is an actionable summary of current milestones and feature issues. It mirrors the milestones on the Forgejo repository and links to issues (local issue numbers).

---

## 🚀 Alpha Build Ready — Core features (Milestone)
Focus: deliver core capabilities so Delta is useful and reliably persona-driven.

Open high-priority items (Alpha):
- #37 — 🧠 LoRA Support — improve model fine-tuning/load-time behavior
- #36 — Memory — persistence for context beyond immediate messages
- #26 — Web usage — optional web-enabled features (codex/integration)
- #25 — 🔁 Enable Modelfile Support — support alternate model packaging
- #24 — 💸 Set up Monetization — billing/paid features plumbing
- #22 — 📡 Remote Admin Panel — admin web UI / remote control
- #17 — 🖼️ Image Generation — generate images via local models
- #16 — 👀 Image Interpretation — describe and analyze posted images
- #10 — Post "Reply" — post as reply-to instead of plain message

Closed/implemented Alpha items: #8, #9, #15, #30, #31

Suggested next steps for Alpha:
- Break large items (Remote Admin Panel, Image Generation) into sub-tasks.
- Prioritize Memory (#36) and Post "Reply" (#10) to stabilize context handling.
- Add clear acceptance criteria to each open Alpha issue.

---

## 🧪 Beta Build — Polishing & optional features (Milestone)
Focus: polish, scaling, and user-experience improvements.

Open Beta items:
- #35 — Respect token budget (~1000 tokens max)
- #34 — 📌 Pin system messages
- #33 — 🧠 Add memory persistence (overlaps with Alpha Memory)
- #27 — Multi model support — support local switching/multiple endpoints
- #18 — 🎭 Multi Personality — multiple personas selectable per server/channel

Suggested next steps for Beta:
- Decide which Alpha items must land before Beta starts.
- Resolve overlaps (Memory appears in both Alpha and Beta) and consolidate the plan.

## 📦 Backlog / Unmilestoned Features
Lower-priority, exploratory, or undecided items to consider batching into future milestones.

- #23 — 📢 Broadcast / Announcement Mode
- #21 — 📈 Analytics Dashboard

- #14 — 📊 Engagement-based adjustment
- #13 — Context-aware scheduling
- #12 — Bot can be given some power to change the server a bit
- #11 — 🗓️ Scheduled specific times/dates

Suggested backlog housekeeping:
- Group these into thematic milestones: e.g. "Admin Tools", "Analytics", "Media & Vision".
- Add rough estimates (S/M/L) and owners for each item.

---

## How to use this roadmap
- Update issue bodies with acceptance criteria and subtask checklists.
- Assign owners and estimate effort for each Alpha item.
- Use the Forgejo milestone due dates to prioritize development sprints.

# 📍 DeltaBot Development Roadmap

This roadmap tracks the major phases of DeltaBot — from MVP to full AI companion chaos. ✅ = complete

---
