Roadmap

Where Kumoss is heading: continuous operations, the full path between cloud and code, operations at scale, measurable quality and governance, cost management, agent interoperability, and simpler deployment.

This page describes the direction of Kumoss. It groups the planned work into themes and summarizes each initiative in a few lines, so that users, operators, and contributors can see where the project is going and plan around it.

The roadmap states intent, not commitment. Priorities change as the project learns from the people using it, and no initiative carries a delivery date. Each feature is announced in the release notes when it ships; until then, the rest of this documentation describes only what Kumoss does today.

How to read the roadmap

The initiatives are grouped into seven themes. Each initiative carries one of two statuses:

  • In progress: active development is under way.

  • Planned: the initiative is accepted into the roadmap, and work has not started.

The order of the themes and of the initiatives within them does not indicate priority.

Continuous operations

Keep the infrastructure and its code in agreement without anyone having to check by hand.

Scheduled drift detection and import

Drift detection and import will run on a recurring schedule through a managed queue, in addition to running on demand from a session. Teams will learn that live infrastructure has diverged from its code, or that unmanaged resources have appeared, as soon as the next run completes.

Today both operations run on demand; see Remediate drift and Import infrastructure.

Cloud and code lifecycle

Cover the whole path between running infrastructure and the code that describes it, in both directions.

From cloud to code

Kumoss will bring existing cloud infrastructure under management from scratch: it will discover the resources in a scope, generate the compliant Infrastructure as Code that describes them, and create the repository that holds it. Infrastructure built outside code will get a governed, version-controlled starting point in one step.

From code to cloud

Starting from an application repository, Kumoss will analyze the application to identify the infrastructure it needs, then generate that infrastructure together with its state configuration. An application and the platform it runs on will move to a running deployment along one reviewed path.

Infrastructure diagrams and change previews

Kumoss will render a diagram of the infrastructure a project manages and highlight how a request changes it before the change is merged. Reviewers will see the impact of a plan visually, alongside the code diff.

Operations at scale

Let platform teams act on many resources and many projects with a single request, instead of repeating the same request one project at a time.

Bulk operations

Any request will be able to run against all projects or a selection of them, instead of one project at a time. A platform team will be able to ask, for example, to update the tags of all storage accounts, or to apply a new security baseline, and Kumoss will run the request in every targeted project. Each project goes through the usual generation, validation, and reporting phases, and the outcome reaches reviewers as one pull request per project with a summary of what changes where, so the team can approve, adjust, or reject the change project by project.

Multiproject requests

A single request will be able to target several projects at once. A team will be able to ask, for example, to add a new database to a list of projects, and Kumoss will run the generation, validation, and reporting phases for each project, tailoring the code to the conventions and compliance rules of each one. Progress and results will be tracked per project, so a failure in one project does not block the others.

Today a session works on a single project; see Follow a session.

Quality and governance

Make the quality of generated code and the reliability of every compliance verdict measurable, verifiable, and enforceable.

Evaluation harness and automated testing

An evaluation harness will score generated code, plan outcomes, and the accuracy of compliance verdicts against a versioned set of reference scenarios for each operation and cloud. Together with automated tests that run on every change, it will catch regressions in prompts, orchestration, and services before they reach a release.

Model benchmarking

Kumoss will publish benchmark results showing how supported language models perform on its own tasks, measuring the quality of generated code, compliance accuracy, cost, and latency. Operators will choose the models in their configuration based on evidence; see LLM providers and models for the models Kumoss supports today.

Policy as code with Open Policy Agent

Kumoss will evaluate every plan against deterministic policies written in Rego with Open Policy Agent, including policies an organization already maintains outside Kumoss. These checks will run alongside the existing language-model compliance audit, adding a rule-based layer that returns the same result every time.

Multicloud governance overview

A governance overview will give administrators a single view of the resources and projects across every connected cloud, showing which are managed as code and how many comply with or violate the active policies. Platform and security teams will see their compliance posture at a glance and move from a finding straight to the session that fixes it.

Cost management (FinOps)

Make the cost of infrastructure visible before and after every change, and connect Kumoss to the tools that FinOps teams already use.

Accurate cost estimates and cost guardrails

Cost estimates for each plan will come from cloud pricing data instead of a language-model approximation, and will cover usage-based resources where pricing allows. Teams will set cost thresholds per project or environment that send a change for review before it is applied when the threshold is exceeded.

Today the estimate is an approximation for comparison; see Follow a session.

Cost overview by resource and project

A cost overview will show what each resource, project, and cloud costs, combining billing data with the infrastructure Kumoss manages. Administrators will spot idle or oversized resources and turn them into a request that fixes them, in the same view as the governance overview.

Integration with FinOps tools and assistants

Kumoss will exchange cost data with external FinOps platforms and AI-based FinOps assistants through an open contract, using the FinOps Open Cost and Usage Specification (FOCUS) where possible. FinOps tools will be able to ask Kumoss for a cost-saving change as a reviewed pull request, and Kumoss will use their recommendations as context when it generates code.

Agent interoperability

Let assistants and other AI agents work with Kumoss through open protocols, under the same guardrails as any other request.

Model Context Protocol (MCP) support

Kumoss will expose its capabilities through the Model Context Protocol, so that MCP-compatible assistants and IDEs can request compliant infrastructure directly. The same guardrails and review flow will apply to every request, whichever client sends it.

Agent2Agent (A2A) protocol support

Support for the Agent2Agent protocol will let other AI agents discover Kumoss and delegate infrastructure tasks to it. Kumoss will then act as a specialized agent within larger multi-agent workflows.

Deployment and adoption

Shorten the path from download to a working, production-grade deployment.

Helm chart for Kubernetes

An official Helm chart will deploy Kumoss and its sidecars on Kubernetes, with production-oriented defaults for configuration, secrets, and scaling. It will complement the Docker Compose stack, which remains the quickest way to evaluate Kumoss; see Deploy to production for the options available today.

Installation wizard

A guided installation wizard will walk operators through the first setup of models, identity provider, Git, cloud credentials, and storage, validating each step as it goes. Operators will reach a working deployment without editing configuration files by hand.

Shape the roadmap

The roadmap evolves with the community. To propose an initiative, comment on a planned one, or offer to help build it, open or join a discussion on the issue tracker. For contribution guidance, including the requirement to open an issue before substantial work, see Contributing.
