v0.1–v0.4: Core Runtime (Implemented)

The foundation is in place: ReAct engine, SPI architecture, 56 built-in tools, context compaction, model providers (Anthropic, GLM, Qwen, GPT), A2A Protocol, Middleware Pipeline, Agent Snapshot, and Spring Boot integration.

v0.5: Agents That Remember (Implemented)

Memory SPI with embedding-based retrieval, persistent checkpoint/rollback, and durable execution support.

v0.6: Agents That Are Safe (Planned v0.6)

Guardrail SPI for input/output validation, interrupt/resume support, team collaboration patterns, and enhanced permission management.

v0.7.0: Guardrail SPI + MCP Security (Implemented)

Guardrail SPI for 4-phase interception, MCP security with default deny-safe policy, structured error fields on KairoException, cost routing SPI, and security observability.

v0.7.1: Tool Result Budget (Implemented)

ToolResultBudget L0 pre-truncation, structured observability metadata on ToolResult, TOOL message observability fields, tool exception/policy path classification, and ADR-010.

v0.8: DurableExecution MVP + ResourceConstraint + Cost-Aware Routing (Implemented)

DurableExecutionStore SPI (InMemory + JDBC) for cross-process agent recovery with at-least-once semantics, ResourceConstraint SPI for unified execution enforcement (replacing scattered iteration/token/timeout checks), and CostAwareRoutingPolicy extending the v0.7 RoutingPolicy SPI with ModelTierRegistry and linear fallback chains.

v0.9: Gap-Only Platform Capabilities + Channel SPI / Event Stream / OTel Exporter (Implemented)

The v0.9.0 GA combines two tracks:

• Gap closure: default self-evolution runtime wiring verified at the behavior level, execution-vs-evolution event-domain regression guards, and kairo-core → evolution implementation import guards.
• Platform capability P0s: Channel SPI + LoopbackChannel reference + starter + TCK (ADR-021); transport-agnostic Event Stream core with SSE and WebSocket transports behind a deny-safe KairoEventStreamAuthorizer (ADR-018); KairoEventOTelExporter in kairo-observability bridging KairoEvent to the OTel logs API with domain filter + sampling ratio + key redaction, plus a dedicated opt-in starter (ADR-022).
• D5 deprecation closure: io.kairo.api.task.* and TeamScheduler physically removed — prior consumers migrated to the v0.10 Expert Team coordinator and hook chain.

Release gate: mvn clean verify green from a clean checkout, 2,498 tests across 344 suites.

See the verification note: docs/roadmap/v0.9-release-verification.md (supersedes v0.9-gap-only-verification.md).

v0.10: Core Refactor Waves (Implemented)

This wave is intentionally platform-ergonomics first: introduce a unified in-process event facade (KairoEventBus), capability-shaped configuration records for cross-cutting concerns, a unified hook annotation (@HookHandler) while keeping legacy hook annotations working, and minimal SPI scaffolding (SkillStore, ProviderPipeline) to reduce the cost of the next features (Expert Team, OTel exporters, Channel SPI).

Verification evidence: docs/roadmap/v0.10-core-refactor-verification.md.

v0.10.1: Expert Team Orchestration MVP (Implemented)

The Expert Team sub-milestone lands the Anthropic-Harness-shaped Planner / Generator / Evaluator loop as first-class infrastructure. It ships a dedicated kairo-expert-team module plus an opt-in kairo-spring-boot-starter-expert-team, and exposes exactly two SPIs in kairo-api:

• TeamCoordinator — Mono<TeamResult> execute(TeamExecutionRequest, Team).
• EvaluationStrategy — Mono<EvaluationVerdict> evaluate(EvaluationContext).

Default implementations include ExpertTeamCoordinator (Planning → Generating → Evaluating → Terminal), SimpleEvaluationStrategy (deterministic rubric), AgentEvaluationStrategy (agent-invoker seam that maps crashes to VerdictOutcome.REVIEW_EXCEEDED), and DefaultPlanner (role-per-agent sequential plan with PlannerFailureMode.FAIL_FAST). A TCK (TeamCoordinatorTCK, EvaluationStrategyTCK, plus RecordingEventBus / NoopMessageBus / StubAgent fixtures) ships in the module's test-jar.

Key semantics:

• Evaluator crash under RiskProfile.LOW → TeamStatus.DEGRADED + warning; under MEDIUM|HIGH → TeamStatus.FAILED.
• Team timeout preserves partial step outcomes and ends on TEAM_TIMEOUT.
• Event-domain isolation: all coordinator events sit on KairoEvent.DOMAIN_TEAM — no leakage into execution / evolution / security domains.
• Starter activation requires kairo.expert-team.enabled=true; installing the starter alone is deliberately not enough.

Kickoff: docs/roadmap/v0.10-expert-team-kickoff.md. Verification evidence: docs/roadmap/v0.10-expert-team-verification.md.

v1.0.0-RC1: SPI Stabilization (Released)

Full kairo-api annotation pass — 119 @Stable + 78 @Experimental across 197 types. japicmp binary compatibility gate. kairo-core coverage uplift to 77.4%.

v1.0.0-RC2: Docs + Examples Completeness (Released)

API Reference docs (7 pages per locale), bilingual parity, ObservabilityExample, README audit.

v1.0.0: The Java Agent Standard (Released)

Enterprise security: kairo-security-pii module with PiiRedactionPolicy (EMAIL/PHONE/CREDIT_CARD/SSN/API_KEY/JWT), JdbcAuditEventSink (append-only audit), ComplianceReportCollector (per-run Markdown evidence). Published to Maven Central.

v1.1.0: SPI Foundations (Released)

Four new SPI packages: ExecutionSandbox (safe command execution), Workspace (path-traversal defense), TenantContext (multi-tenant propagation), Bridge (WebSocket IDE integration). All purely additive on v1.0 surface.

v1.1.1: Kairo Code Rebrand (Released)

ConsoleApprovalHandler cancellation safety (Mono.create + interruptible polling). Companion kairo-code rebrand from agentcode.

v1.2: Plugin + Gateway + Cron + LSP + ACP (In Progress)

Plugin SPI (Claude Code format compatible, 5 install sources). Gateway module for multi-channel routing. Cron scheduler. LSP diagnostics. Agent Client Protocol for editor integration.
