FLSG TECHNICAL DEVELOPMENT ROADMAP · v0.9

Protocol development by dependency,
evidence and validation gates.

FlareSignal advances from a canonical intelligence and payment substrate toward an immutable machine-access protocol. Phase transitions are evidence-driven and do not imply token-launch dates.

CURRENT EXECUTION FRONTIERPhase 1 remains the active production-completion frontier. Phase 2 has a proven substrate and is at the Base mainnet production gate. Phase 3 implementation specification and assurance readiness are substantially defined; production evidence/configuration remains gated. Phases 4-9 remain implementation, security, economic and market gates.

PHASE 0

Canonical Intelligence & Payment Substrate

The canonical FlareSignal data plane, machine interfaces and payment substrate operate independently of FLSG protocol economics.

COMPLETE5 / 5deliverables verified
FS_Data_Core canonical truth boundary across public, Pro and machine consumersVERIFIED
Public/Pro intelligence, Sig-Metrics and retained-history surfaces backed by official/chain evidenceVERIFIED
REST / OpenAPI / MCP / A2A interfaces with metering, entitlement and idempotency foundationsVERIFIED
PayChain crypto-payment substrate with deterministic payment verification and purchase activationVERIFIED
Data-minimised ordinary account boundary: email + password onlyVERIFIED
VALIDATION GATE

Canonical intelligence, machine-access and payment infrastructure operate without any dependency on FLSG.

CAPABILITY UNLOCKED

Autonomous paid-machine commerce can be proven before token implementation.

PHASE 1

Production Readiness & Canonical Convergence

Every production surface converges on the established truth architecture, retained-history semantics and shared component standards.

ACTIVE1 / 5deliverables verified
Customer-surface source, freshness, history and canonical-owner verificationIN VALIDATION
Shared canonical clocks for repeated live/cycling valuesIN VALIDATION
Responsive, light-mode and shared-component parity across remaining surfacesIN VALIDATION
Immediate-parent release scope, executable runtime safety and byte-level regression certificationVERIFIED
Production baseline freeze for machine-commerce proofIN VALIDATION
VALIDATION GATE

No known customer-facing truth, source, history or interface inconsistency remains in the production baseline.

CAPABILITY UNLOCKED

A stable FlareSignal product baseline becomes the substrate for paid autonomous consumption.

PHASE 2

Machine Commerce & PayChain Proof

The machine-commerce substrate is already proven through PayChain and Base Sepolia. Production closure now depends on Base mainnet settlement credentials and a real-USDC canary.

PRODUCTION GATE4 / 6deliverables verified
PayChain payment infrastructure with deterministic payment verification, signed receipt and entitlement activationVERIFIED
Machine discovery through OpenAPI / MCP / A2A with six product contracts and entitlement/metering foundationsVERIFIED
Delegated execution, idempotency and durable usage-metering foundationsVERIFIED
x402 Base Sepolia challenge, signed retry, facilitator verify/settle, receipt, entitlement and audit canaryVERIFIED
Base mainnet production settlement configuration, payment destination, pricing/preflight and real-USDC canaryIN VALIDATION
Production autonomous purchase, product delivery/output verification, settlement/refund, ledger and replay proofGATED
VALIDATION GATE

A real Base mainnet machine purchase settles in USDC and completes discovery, entitlement, product delivery, verification and durable accounting evidence end-to-end.

CAPABILITY UNLOCKED

Measured production machine demand can become an evidence input to final FLSG service economics and implementation freeze.

PHASE 3

Protocol Specification & Assurance Readiness

FLSG V1 monetary, customer-property, access and escrow behavior is substantially specified. Security-assurance preparation has also advanced, while production evidence and deployment configuration remain gated before Phase 3 closes.

IMPLEMENTATION SPEC DEFINED6 / 7deliverables verified
Monetary and customer-property invariants are defined, including fixed supply, FLR gas and non-discretionary customer principalVERIFIED
SIGNAL Access and machine-order escrow lifecycles are specified with immutable customer rights and deterministic settlement/refund boundariesVERIFIED
Flare-native pricing/trust, Service Policy measurement and isolated evidence architecture are defined without creating a parallel site truth systemVERIFIED
Authority/key-security architecture and an executable V1 reference model are prepared for implementation and differential testingVERIFIED
Formal property definitions, economic attack modelling and an audit-ready security/release pipeline are preparedVERIFIED
Public transparency design and external-assurance/grant readiness are prepared for later independent reviewVERIFIED
Measured production demand, production price/deployment identifiers and explicit Phase 3 closure remain required before Phase 4 opensGATED
VALIDATION GATE

Phase 3 closes only after Phase 2 production evidence resolves the remaining service/economic configuration and the required production price/deployment identifiers. Legal, genesis and liquidity approval remain later Mainnet gates.

CAPABILITY UNLOCKED

Coston2 implementation can begin against the fixed V1 specification after the remaining evidence/configuration gates are explicitly closed.

PHASE 4

Coston2 Immutable Kernel

The smallest security-critical FLSG protocol kernel is instantiated on Flare Coston2 using audited primitives wherever possible.

FUTURE GATE0 / 5deliverables verified
FLSGToken: fixed genesis supply and native burn with no owner monetary controlsGATED
SIGNALAccessLock: principal, expiry, beneficiary integrity and entitlement view with no admin principal pathGATED
AccessSchedule: epoch-based economic requirements that cannot alter existing locksGATED
MachineOrderEscrow: deterministic funded -> fulfilled -> settled OR refunded state machineGATED
UsageBurnVault, liquidity and vesting controls with narrow capabilities and no generic execution surfaceGATED
VALIDATION GATE

The complete protocol lifecycle executes on Coston2 with test assets while customer principal remains non-discretionary.

CAPABILITY UNLOCKED

The immutable kernel is concrete enough for adversarial security analysis and external review.

PHASE 5

Adversarial Validation & Reproducible Security

Evidence demonstrates that critical invariants survive hostile call sequences, malicious assets, compromised agents and build-chain failure.

FUTURE GATE0 / 6deliverables verified
Stateful fuzzing across caller, amount, timing and transaction-sequence spaceGATED
Mutation testing that intentionally weakens security checks and requires the suite to detect the changeGATED
Property-directed AI red-team against monetary, custody, replay, burn-isolation and privacy invariantsGATED
Formal verification of the highest-value invariants using independent methods where practicalGATED
Reproducible build/bytecode verification, canary limits and data-minimisation validationGATED
Non-destructive external funding/grant routes for specialist assuranceGATED
VALIDATION GATE

Critical invariants survive independent adversarial methods and reproducible deployment evidence is available.

CAPABILITY UNLOCKED

The protocol is eligible for professional audit/legal work without relying on internal confidence alone.

PHASE 6

External Assurance & Mainnet Genesis

The Mainnet boundary remains gated by independent security assurance, legal review and final genesis engineering.

FUTURE GATE0 / 5deliverables verified
Independent smart-contract audit, remediation and remediation verificationGATED
UK legal/regulatory review of token distribution, burn, liquidity and machine-access structureGATED
Final immutable genesis, treasury/founder vesting and purpose-bound security vaultsGATED
Public price-discovery mechanism subject to legal approval and anti-manipulation constraintsGATED
Protocol-owned liquidity plus verified source, bytecode hashes and public authority matrixGATED
VALIDATION GATE

Mainnet contracts, launch mechanics and authority boundaries are independently reviewed, reproducible and legally approved.

CAPABILITY UNLOCKED

A defensible Mainnet genesis can occur without weakening custody or monetary invariants.

PHASE 7

Market Bootstrap, Price Authority & SIGNAL Access

Sufficient market quality and decentralized price authority precede activation of economic-value-based machine locks.

FUTURE GATE0 / 5deliverables verified
Canonical FLSG/FLR market with protocol-owned liquidity and transparent price discoveryGATED
Legitimate liquidity, trading history and manipulation-resistance evidenceGATED
Standard FTSOv2 FLSG/USD price authority before SIGNAL Access activationGATED
Access Epoch 1 gated by freshness, liquidity and price-authority evidenceGATED
Enhanced, Professional and Institutional immutable lock contracts under published schedulesGATED
VALIDATION GATE

FLSG pricing is sufficiently robust and independently sourced for deterministic economic-value lock requirements.

CAPABILITY UNLOCKED

SIGNAL Access can become a production machine-capacity mechanism rather than a speculative token feature.

PHASE 8

Usage-Derived Burn Activation

Revenue-funded FLSG destruction remains inactive until real paid usage and market liquidity validate the execution economics.

FUTURE GATE0 / 5deliverables verified
Customer product pricing independent of the usage-burn mechanismGATED
Approved revenue/margin share routed into a one-way burn reserve with no treasury return pathGATED
Manipulation-resistant acquisition/burn execution with bounded market impactGATED
Public access-burn versus usage-burn accounting and execution evidenceGATED
Prospective economic reassessment without alteration of active locks or committed customer rightsGATED
VALIDATION GATE

Measured machine revenue, legitimate liquidity and legal review justify activating the second burn engine.

CAPABILITY UNLOCKED

Protocol deflation becomes linked to actual FlareSignal machine consumption rather than transfer activity.

PHASE 9

Cryptographic & Protocol Evolution

Stronger Flare-native and cryptographic capabilities enter through explicit new versions without rewriting monetary history or active customer rights.

FUTURE GATE0 / 5deliverables verified
Flare Confidential Compute integration where it materially reduces trust and is production-matureGATED
Protocol Managed Wallet/native-account capabilities when production-readyGATED
Optional post-quantum protected high-value custody and recovery paths using standardized cryptographyGATED
Future native Flare post-quantum/security primitives when mature and auditedGATED
New immutable contract versions in place of upgrades to live customer-money contractsGATED
VALIDATION GATE

New capabilities preserve existing supply history, lock terms, beneficiaries and customer-property invariants.

CAPABILITY UNLOCKED

FLSG can evolve with Flare and cryptographic standards without making its monetary core mutable.

NON-NEGOTIABLE MAINNET GATES

Technical evidence precedes economic activation.
