Macula SDK Roadmap

Last Updated: 2026-04-09 Current Version: v1.0.0 Status: SDK/Relay split complete. 48-module client SDK published to hex.pm.

v1.0.0 (Current) -- SDK/Relay Separation

• [x] Split macula into lean SDK (48 modules) + macula-relay (119 modules)
• [x] Absorb macula-nifs (crypto, UCAN, DID, MRI Rust NIFs) into SDK
• [x] Consolidate MRI into single canonical definition with NIF-accelerated trie index
• [x] Publish to hex.pm, archive macula-nifs and macula-ex
• [x] Update all consumers (hecate-daemon, hecate-stub, hecate-app-weather)

v1.1.0 -- SDK Polish

• [ ] Precompiled NIF binaries for crypto/UCAN/DID/MRI (like Quinn QUIC NIF)
• [ ] Improve SDK documentation with more examples
• [ ] Connection health monitoring API
• [ ] Subscription persistence across reconnects

v1.2.0 -- Multi-Relay Resilience

• [ ] Automatic failover to nearest relay on disconnect
• [ ] Multi-homed connections (connect to N relays simultaneously)
• [ ] RTT-based relay selection with periodic re-evaluation
• [ ] Connection quality metrics API

Future

• [ ] Language-specific SDKs (Go, Rust, Python) via macula wire protocol
• [ ] WebSocket transport option (browser clients)
• [ ] End-to-end encryption (relay cannot read payload)
