Features and status
Sovereign separates shipped behavior from work that is still underway. Status describes the project, not whether a particular operator has enabled a feature on their instance.

In development
These capabilities have active designs or implementations, but public behavior may still change:
- Broader plugin storage and portability contracts.
- Background jobs, events, external connections, and richer plugin tools.
- Improved operator backup and recovery workflows.
- Expanded device shells and app experiences.
Review the public product roadmap for outcome-level direction and the RFC index for technical proposals.
Planned or exploring
- Client-side encryption foundations for apps that handle sensitive content.
- Peer-to-peer chat with a separate identity and transport model.
- Assistant and orchestration experiences built on explicit platform contracts.
These are not available features. Draft RFCs describe possible designs, not a delivery guarantee.
