Project Tracks

This file tracks all major tracks for the project. Each track has its own detailed plan in its respective folder.


Phase 4: High-Fidelity UX & Tools

Initialized: 2026-03-08

Architecture & Backend

  1. Track: External MCP Server Support Link: ./tracks/external_mcp_support_20260308/ Goal: Add support for external MCP servers (Local Stdio and Remote SSE/WS) with flexible configuration and lifecycle management (including auto-start on project load).

  2. Track: RAG Support Link: ./tracks/rag_support_20260308/ Goal: Add support for RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) using local vector stores (Chroma/Qdrant), native vendor retrieval, and external RAG APIs. Implement indexing pipeline and retrieval UI.


GUI Overhauls & Visualizations

  1. Track: Advanced Log Management and Session Restoration Link: ./tracks/log_session_overhaul_20260308/ Goal: Centralize log management, improve session restoration reliability with full-UI replay mode, and optimize log size via external script/output referencing. Implement transient diagnostic logging for system warnings.

  2. Track: UI Theme Overhaul & Style System Link: ./tracks/ui_theme_overhaul_20260308/ Goal: Modernize UI with Inter/Maple Mono fonts, a professional subtle rounded theme, custom shaders (corners, blur, AA), multi-viewport support, and layout presets.

  3. Track: Selectable GUI Text & UX Improvements Link: ./tracks/selectable_ui_text_20260308/ Goal: Address UI inconveniences by making critical text across the GUI selectable and copyable. Covers discussion history, comms logs, tool outputs, and key metrics.

  4. Track: Markdown Support & Syntax Highlighting Link: ./tracks/markdown_highlighting_20260308/ Goal: Add rich text rendering with GFM support and syntax highlighting for PowerShell, Python, and JSON/TOML in read-only message and log views.


C/C++ Language Support

  1. Track: Tree-Sitter C/C++ MCP Tools Link: ./tracks/ts_cpp_tree_sitter_20260308/ Goal: Add tree-sitter C and C++ grammars. Extend ASTParser to support C/C++ skeleton and outline extraction. Add MCP tools ts_c_get_skeleton, ts_cpp_get_skeleton, ts_c_get_code_outline, ts_cpp_get_code_outline.

  2. Track: Bootstrap gencpp Python Bindings Link: ./tracks/gencpp_python_bindings_20260308/ Goal: Bootstrap standalone Python project with CFFI bindings for gencpp C library. Provides foundation for richer C++ AST parsing in future (beyond tree-sitter syntax).


Path Configuration

  1. Track: Project-Specific Conductor Directory Link: ./tracks/project_conductor_dir_20260308/ Goal: Make conductor directory per-project. Each project TOML can specify custom conductor dir for isolated track/state management.

  2. Track: GUI Path Configuration in Context Hub Link: ./tracks/gui_path_config_20260308/ Goal: Add path configuration UI to Context Hub. Allow users to view and edit configurable paths directly from the GUI.


Manual UX Controls

  1. Track: Saved System Prompt Presets Link: ./tracks/saved_presets_20260308/ Goal: Ability to have saved presets for global and project system prompts. Includes full AI profiles with temperature and top_p settings, managed via a dedicated GUI modal.

  2. Track: Saved Tool Presets Link: ./tracks/saved_tool_presets_20260308/ Goal: Make agent tools have presets. Add flags for tools related to their level of approval (auto, ask). Move tools to ai settings. Put tools in dynamic TOML-defined categories (Python, General, etc.). Tool Presets added to mma agent role options.

  3. Track: External Text Editor Integration for Approvals Link: ./tracks/external_editor_integration_20260308/ Goal: Add support to open files modified by agents in external editors (10xNotepad/VSCode) for native diffing and manual editing during the tool approval flow.


Model Providers

  1. Track: OpenAI Provider Integration Link: ./tracks/openai_integration_20260308/ Goal: Add support for OpenAI as a first-class model provider (GPT-4o, GPT-4o-mini, o1, o3-mini). Achieve functional parity with Gemini/Anthropic, including Vision, Structured Output, and response streaming.

  2. Track: Zhipu AI (GLM) Provider Integration Link: ./tracks/zhipu_integration_20260308/ Goal: Add support for Zhipu AI (z.ai) as a first-class model provider (GLM-4, GLM-4-Flash, GLM-4V). Implement core client, vision support, and cost tracking.

  3. Track: AI Provider Caching Optimization Link: ./tracks/caching_optimization_20260308/ Goal: Verify and optimize caching strategies across all providers. Implement 4-breakpoint hierarchy for Anthropic, prefix stabilization for OpenAI/DeepSeek, and hybrid explicit/implicit caching for Gemini. Add GUI hit rate metrics.


Phase 3: Future Horizons

Initialized: 2026-03-06 Updated: 2026-03-08

  1. Track: Manual UX Validation & Review Link: ./tracks/manual_ux_validation_20260302/
