This will be a living document updated on a regular basis. If you'd like to participate in any workscope or would like to suggest another feature please reach out to [Marko](marko@binary.builders) or [Sam](sam@binary.builders) and we will schedule a call to discuss the feature request. + + +## Q1 + +### Storage + +* [Produce a spec for the new store design](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/issues/12986) + * Research a new design for store. This could entail writing some POC's in order to identify design patterns +* Store as its own go module + * Store module should be its own go.mod without a dependency on the Cosmos SDK +* Begin implementation of store v2 + * Identify the migration path from store v1 -> store v2 +* Parallel execution of state + * RFC/ADR is merged into the main on the sdk +* Optimistic execution + * RFC/ADR is merged into main on the sdk + + +### Client UX + +* Release v1 of query support (auto-cli) + * A version of query support has been merged, documentation is missing +* Dynamic metadata support + * Dynamic support allows the Cosmos SDK to release a cmd line tool that could work with any chain. + * Add metadata support to latest version of Cosmos SDK and, if possible, backport to older versions +* Multi-chain command + * Release a cmd line tool that can be pointed a grpc endpoint which then can produce cmd lines to interact with the chain +* Auto-cli tx support + * Tx support for auto-cli/hubl + * This would fully remove the need for application developers to write cli commands for their modules + + +### Dev UX + +* [Release collections v1](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/issues/14300) + * Collections is a new abstraction layer similar to the ORM. In the ADR phase it received support from many in the ecosystem. + * V1 release should allow modules to be migrated to collections. +* Migrate 3 modules to use collections api + * Migrating 3 modules to use collections would help in show users how to migrate users +* [Sign mode textual](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/issues/11970) (75%) + * Sign mode textual has been under construction for 2 quarters now, this quarter the goal is to move towards v1 and potentially line up a audit before final release. +* Core API + * [Merge ADR for Core API](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/blob/main/docs/architecture/adr-063-core-module-api.md) + * Migrate three modules to use core api +* Module Dependency + * Give three modules their own go.mods + * Cleanup dependency graph (dependent on integration testing framework) +* [Metamask signing directly into the sdk](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/discussions/13892) +* [ADR-033 (internal message routing)](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/blob/main/docs/architecture/adr-033-protobuf-inter-module-comm.md) + * Merge internal message router + * Add docs on how to use the router +* [ADR-54 (dependency management)](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/pull/11802) + * Come to consensus on module dependency graph for the future + * Begin socializing conventions +* [Remove global bech32](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/issues/13140) +* [Auth module](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/issues/14900) + * Produce a spec/ADR on a proposed new auth module. +* [Implement Amino Json encoder](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/issues/10993) + +### Testing + +* [integration testing framework](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/issues/14145) + * design and merge a integration testing framework. + * The goals of the framework would that a module only needs to depend on modules that it depends on outside of testing, not all modules in the sdk like today. + + +### ABCI 2.0 + +Issue: https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/issues/12272 + +* [ADR ABCI 2.0](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/issues/14674) + * Write ADR for integration of vote extensions & finalize block + +**Blocked**: + +> once cometBFT has a release candidate of ABCI 2.0 (cmt 0.38) + +* Integrate ABCI 2.0 + +### Security + +* [Circuit breaker](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/issues/14226) + * Implement the circuit breaker module and prepare releases for Cosmos SDK versions 0.45, 0.46 and 0.47 + + +### IAVL + +* [ADR 001](https://github.com/cosmos/iavl/pull/608) + * Implementation has been completed, waiting on reviewers +* [Prepare the migration path](https://github.com/cosmos/iavl/issues/675) + * Migration path has not been finalized +* Test on mainnets + * If possible we would like to test the new IAVL design on mainnets to observer behavior changes. + +Issue: https://github.com/cosmos/iavl/issues/548 + + + +This document will be updated at the end of the quarter on what was achieved and what was not. Shortly before the quarter concludes a new section will be added for the next quarter. We are working on updating the complete one year roadmap and will be posting it here as well.
