Project Start: July 2025 Current Status: Active Development - See docs/system-state.md for current status Last Updated: September 16, 2026 Canonical Source: This is the single authoritative project roadmap (rolling; formerly ROADMAP_2025.md)

Note: Previous roadmap files have been archived to docs/archive/. This document consolidates all roadmap variants and provides accurate implementation status based on actual codebase verification.

📊 Executive Summary

AutoBot has evolved into a comprehensive autonomous AI platform through intensive development. This roadmap consolidates information from all previous roadmap variants and provides verified implementation status.

Verified Implementation (snapshot: 2026-09-16)

Every count below was measured against the tree on the date given, and the How counted column is the command that produced it — so any row can be re-derived rather than taken on trust. The previous table was a December 2025 snapshot that had drifted badly (components 260 -> 372, agents "40+" -> 61) and cited autobot-backend/llm_interface_pkg/providers/, a path that no longer exists. Counts drift; the method should not.

Metric Count How counted
Specialized agents 61 .py under autobot-backend/agents/, excluding __init__ and tests
API route modules 323 autobot-backend/api/*.py, excluding tests
Route decorators 2,446 @router.{get,post,put,delete,patch,websocket} across autobot-backend/
Database models 75 (36 of them in llc/) class X(Base) across autobot-backend/
Services 84 *_service.py under autobot-backend/
Alembic migrations 97 files in autobot-backend/migrations/versions/
Vue components 372 .vue under autobot-frontend/src/components/
Vue views 78 .vue under autobot-frontend/src/views/
i18n locales 11 .json under autobot-frontend/src/i18n/locales/
LLM provider backends 16, across 21 modules autobot-backend/llm_shared/providers/ (the rest are shared helpers)
MCP bridges 11 autobot-backend/api/*_mcp.py
Redis databases 15 db: keys in autobot-infrastructure/shared/config/redis-databases.yaml
Scheduled (beat) jobs 29 beat_schedule entries in autobot-backend/celery_app.py
CI workflows 65 .github/workflows/*.y{a,}ml
Python test files 5,612 *_test.py and test_*.py, excluding node_modules

The single largest subsystem absent from the phase list below is Company OS (autobot-backend/llc/) — 36 of the 75 database models, with its own scheduler, API surface and frontend views. The phases end at 21; this arrived after them and is documented in docs/research/ rather than here.

🎯 Architecture Decisions: What Changed and Why

This section documents key architectural decisions where the original plan was replaced with a different approach.

1. Agent Orchestration Framework

Aspect Original Plan Current Implementation
Framework LangChain Custom Consolidated LLM Interface
Status Replaced ✅ Production

Why We Changed:

  • LangChain added abstraction layers that complicated debugging
  • Framework updates frequently broke our integrations
  • Custom implementation gives direct control over provider switching
  • 2-3x performance improvement with custom approach
  • LangChain being added back as optional complementary feature for specific use cases

2. Knowledge Retrieval System

Aspect Original Plan Current Implementation
Framework LlamaIndex Custom RAG with ChromaDB
Status Replaced ✅ Production

Why We Changed:

  • LlamaIndex's document loaders didn't support our specific file formats
  • Needed custom reranking algorithms for domain-specific content
  • Background vectorization requirement wasn't well-supported
  • Custom implementation provides hybrid search (semantic + keyword)
  • 60% better retrieval accuracy with domain-tuned embeddings

3. Infrastructure Architecture

Aspect Original Plan Current Implementation
Deployment Single server Distributed, role-based fleet
Status Evolved ✅ Production

Why We Changed:

  • Single server couldn't handle concurrent LLM inference + web automation
  • GPU/NPU resources needed isolation from main application
  • Redis required dedicated resources for 45,000+ keys
  • Browser automation (Playwright) conflicts with desktop environment
  • Fault isolation: one service failure doesn't crash entire system

4. Model Selection Strategy

Aspect Plan Current Implementation
Models Tiered: 1B/3B for agents, 7B for complex tasks Mistral 7B for all tasks (temporary)
Status Pending Optimization ⏳ In Progress

Planned Model Architecture (Target):

  • 1B/3B Models - For specialized agents (classification, routing, simple tasks)
  • Mistral 7B - For complex reasoning, coding, orchestration
  • Goal: Reduce resource usage while maintaining quality

Current Implementation (Temporary):

  • Qwen 3.5 9B (qwen3.5:9b) - Used for ALL task types:
    • Default LLM, Embedding, Classification, Reasoning
    • RAG, Coding, Orchestrator, Agent tasks
    • Research, Analysis, Planning

Why Mistral 7B Temporarily for Everything:

  • Provides consistent baseline for development
  • Ensures quality while tiered system is being designed
  • 4.4GB model size fits in available VRAM/RAM
  • Fast enough for interactive use (~1-3s response time)

Pending Optimization:

  • Implement tiered model distribution
  • Use smaller 1B/3B models for specialized agents
  • Reserve 7B+ models for complex reasoning tasks
  • Expected: Significant resource savings with minimal quality impact

Current Configuration (from .env):

AUTOBOT_DEFAULT_LLM_MODEL=qwen3.5:9b
AUTOBOT_EMBEDDING_MODEL=qwen3.5:9b
AUTOBOT_CLASSIFICATION_MODEL=qwen3.5:9b  # TODO: Use 1B model
AUTOBOT_REASONING_MODEL=qwen3.5:9b
# Future: tiered model distribution for specialized agents

5. Frontend Server Architecture

Aspect Original Plan Current Implementation
Servers Multiple dev servers allowed Single frontend server (frontend role only)
Status Replaced ✅ Mandatory

Why We Changed:

  • Multiple frontend instances caused port conflicts
  • WebSocket connections got confused between instances
  • State synchronization issues between multiple frontends
  • Single server ensures consistent user experience
  • All development uses sync-to-deployment-machine workflow

6. Redis Database Structure

Aspect Original Plan Current Implementation
Databases 1 general database 12 specialized databases
Status Evolved ✅ Production

Why We Changed:

  • Single database had key collision risks
  • Different data types need different eviction policies
  • Easier to monitor and debug isolated data streams
  • Better performance with specialized configurations
  • Clear separation: cache, vectors, sessions, analytics, etc.

Summary: What We Kept vs Changed

Kept from Original Vision:

  • ✅ Multi-agent architecture with 31 specialized agents
  • ✅ Redis as primary data layer
  • ✅ Vue 3 frontend framework
  • ✅ FastAPI backend framework
  • ✅ Ollama for local LLM inference

Replaced with Better Approach:

  • ❌ LangChain → Custom LLM interface (performance + control)
  • ❌ LlamaIndex → Custom RAG with ChromaDB (flexibility + accuracy)
  • ❌ Single server → distributed, role-based fleet (scalability + isolation)
  • ❌ TinyLLaMA/Phi-2 → Mistral 7B for all tasks (quality + consistency, pending optimization)
  • ❌ Multiple frontends → Single frontend role (stability)

📊 Original Roadmap Phases 18-21 (LangChain/LlamaIndex)

These phases from the archived roadmap were replaced with custom implementations:

Original Phase Original Plan What Happened
