Q4 2025 – Foundation & Core Engine

Focus: Stabilizing the Go enforcement core and developer tooling.

CLI v1.0 Stable Release
  • Full agent envelope validation and signing
  • Local evaluation of trust policies (uses the same engine as production)
  • JWS/JWKS signature verification and debugging
Guard Service (RPC) – Alpha / Internal
  • β€’Initial Go-based guard service exposing the core engine over local RPC
  • β€’Unix Domain Socket / localhost TCP transport for low latency
  • β€’SDK prototypes for Node.js and Python calling the guard via RPC
  • Note: This is an internal milestone, not a public GA feature.

Q1 2026 – Platform Launch

Focus: The single source of truth for agent identity and lineage.

CapiscIO Platform Launch
  • β€’Agent Registry: Identity and integrity store for all protocols (A2A, MCP, Custom)
  • β€’Trust Graph: Signed event storage and lineage tracking for agent actions
  • β€’Visual Dashboard: Visualize agent chains, delegated authority, and policy decisions in real-time
Integrations & SDKs
  • β€’Unified SDKs: Node, Python, and Go libraries powered by the local RPC Guard
  • β€’Zapier Integration (Beta, subject to demand): Bridge traditional automation into the trusted agent graph
  • β€’Starter Tier: Free tier for individual developers and small agent swarms

Q2 2026 – Governance & Policy Engine

Focus: Granular control over what agents can actually do.

Advanced Policy Model
  • β€’Context-Aware Rules: Define policies based on agent capability, budget, and context
  • β€’Lineage Control: Set limits on delegated agents and downstream sub-agents
  • β€’Decision Modes: Configurable outcomes per capability (Allow, Deny, Escalate, Co-sign)
Enterprise Management
  • β€’Team Workspaces: Role-based access control for policy management
  • β€’SIEM Export: Push decisions and violations directly to Splunk, Datadog, or Sentinel
  • β€’SSO/SAML: Enterprise identity integration

Q2–Q3 2026 – Observability & Traceability

Focus: Understanding the "Why" behind agent decisions.

Trust Observability
  • β€’Decision Streaming: Real-time stream of policy evaluations via OpenTelemetry
  • β€’Incident Replay: Trace the full chain of authority (Caller β†’ Agent β†’ Data β†’ Response) for any interaction
  • β€’Data Action Tracking: Verify which agents accessed specific data payloads
  • Note: We stream trust and decision events into your existing observability stack. We do not replace your general log or metric pipelines.
Integrations
  • β€’Native exporters for major observability platforms (Datadog, Prometheus, Honeycomb)

Q3 2026 – Enterprise & Reputation Analytics

Focus: Risk scoring and ecosystem health.

Advanced Analytics
  • β€’Agent Graph Explorer: Visual tool to explore agent relationships and delegation paths
  • β€’Reputation Scoring: Risk and trust scores for agents, publishers, and relationships
  • β€’Outlier Detection on Trust Events: Detect anomalous chains of authority or unexpected budget spikes based on graph heuristics
  • β€’Compliance Reports: Exportable audit trails for regulatory requirements
Enterprise Deployment
  • β€’On-Premise Guard: Run the Guard Service in air-gapped or private cloud environments
  • β€’SOC 2 Type II: Full compliance certification

Q4 2026 – Marketplace Exploration & Automated Response

Focus: The "Visa" network for agents.

Exploration: Verified Agent Marketplace
  • β€’Early work on a directory of agents with verified identity, integrity, and reputation scores
  • β€’"Verified by CapiscIO" badges based on cryptographic proof history
Automated Response
  • β€’Kill Switches: Policy-driven containment for high-risk or compromised agents
  • β€’SOAR Hooks: Trigger automated incident response workflows in external security tools

Available Today

Published packages you can install and use right now.

capiscio (npm)

The official CLI for validating A2A agents. Wraps the Go engine with a Node.js interface.

npm install -g capiscio

Commands:

  • validate – Agent Card validation
  • key gen – Ed25519 keypair generation
  • badge issue/verify/keep – Trust Badge management
  • gateway start – HTTP reverse proxy with badge validation
capiscio (PyPI)

Pure Python CLI with the same validation capabilities. No Go binary required.

pip install capiscio

Same commands as the npm version. Ideal for Python-only environments.

capiscio-sdk (PyPI)

Runtime security middleware for Python agents. Includes SimpleGuard for JWS signing/verification.

pip install capiscio-sdk

Drop-in middleware for FastAPI, Flask, or any Python agent framework.

capiscio-core (Go)

The core validation and scoring engine. Embeddable in any Go application.

go get github.com/capiscio/capiscio-core

Packages: scoring, simpleguard, badge, agentcard, gateway, crypto.

validate-a2a (GitHub Action)

CI/CD integration for agent validation with three-dimensional scoring.

uses: capiscio/validate-a2a@v1

Outputs: compliance-score, trust-score, availability-score, production-ready.

Quick Install
Node CLI:npm i -g capiscio

We prioritize

We review top-requested items with design partners and fold them into the roadmap where they fit.

Design Partner Benefits

Higher Priority

Design partners' requests are evaluated first and often used to seed new prototypes.

First Access

Early access to internal builds and prototypes.

Special Terms

Priority support and favorable commercial terms when hosted services become available.

Build the future with us

CapiscIO today is a CLI, Python SDK, and Go engine you can ship with.
The roadmap is about turning that into a full trust and policy layer for autonomous agents.
