This week:

Shipped three protocol features last week for
NOVAI (native agent payments, service discovery
registry, VK registry). 1,493 tests passing now.

This week the plan is:

Blog distribution across five platforms (done today)
Engagement and community building
Start building SLAs with auto-slash (on-chain contracts between AI entities with automatic penalty enforcement)
Redeploy the testnet with the new binary

Looking forward to seeing what everyone else is
working on.

This week’s focus is heavily centered around turning architecture into operational reality.

Current goals:

Continue building the KiwiPress + Citrode platform wedge
Finish the domain search flow and begin integrating billing with Stripe
Continue refining Juice and stabilizing the design system architecture
Push further into deployment-aware and infrastructure-aware platform workflows
Continue publishing articles around systems architecture, operational design, and WebEngine philosophy
Begin planning structured architecture/dev streams that can also be repurposed into educational short-form content

A major focus right now is narrowing execution into tangible operational milestones instead of endlessly expanding scope.

Trying to build systems that are not only technically interesting, but operationally sustainable long-term.
