Roadmap
Phases as gates, not dates.
How we think about phases
We don’t ship features by calendar. We ship by condition.
Each phase has triggers — concrete things that must hold before that phase unlocks. Some triggers are under our control: code shipped, audits passed, contracts deployed. Some are not: sustained adoption, regulatory clarity, organic economy maturity.
Decentralization is earned, gradient by gradient.
Optionality > obligation.
Phase 1 — Live
All triggers metPhase 1 is shipped on Base Sepolia testnet. Six games, four verified contracts, permissionless sponsor pools, AI features operational, x402 endpoints live.
- TournamentPool v2.1 deployed + verified
- Six games shipped with full feature parity
- Permissionless sponsor MVP funded by anonymous wallets
- 203 Foundry tests passing
- AI features (Coach, Recap, AntiCheat) live
- Eight x402 endpoints operational
- Storage segregation reconciliation verified live
- Developer surface shipped: @skillos/sdk + @skillos/mcp + @skillos/cli + @skillos/skills npm packages
- api.skillos.network HTTP API live
- Agent funnel end-to-end on-chain verified — Claude agent self-pays, plays to game-over, settles on-chain
Phase 2 — Mainnet ahead
Triggers in progressPhase 2 is the mainnet phase. Concrete deliverables under our control, plus capital and external audits in flight. No date promised — we ship when triggers hold.
- v2.2 contract upgrade (developer fee splitter on-chain)in flight
- Third-party security audit completed
- Mainnet deployment + Blockscout verification
- Production sanctions oracle integration
- Cayman Foundation incorporation
- Legal framework (ToS, Privacy Policy, opinion letters)
- Phase 2 capital securedin flight
Phase 3 — When the platform proves itself
Achievement-gatedPhase 3 unlocks features that depend on conditions we don’t fully control. Sustained mainnet adoption. Regulatory clarity on the frameworks that apply. An organic economy mature enough to support validator participation.
When those conditions hold, Phase 3 ships dispute resolution via SP-weighted validator quorum, an Emergency Games Fund backed by ad revenue, and dynamic auto-tournament infrastructure.
These aren’t deliverables on a schedule. They’re capabilities that activate when the platform earns them.
- Sustained mainnet adoption
- Regulatory clarity on relevant frameworks
- Organic economy maturity
- Validator quorum dispute layer
- Emergency Games Fund (ad-revenue funded)
- Dynamic auto-tournament infrastructure
Phase 4+ — Optionality, not obligation
Decisions, not deliverablesPhase 4 and beyond hold decisions, not deliverables. Two decisions specifically: governance and tokenization.
Governance launch is conditional on three things: sustained Phase 3 maturity, regulatory clarity (Howey, MiCA, applicable frameworks), and a utility-bound design that doesn’t speculate. The default answer is no. Yes requires all three.
Player-side data tokenization is an independent decision — same gates, same defaults. If it ever ships, it’s opt-in, storage-segregated from gameplay funds, and compliant with applicable privacy frameworks (GDPR, CCPA).
We earn the option to launch either. We don’t promise to launch either.
The SP system can remain off-chain accounting indefinitely if the platform doesn’t warrant tokenization. That’s a feature, not a fallback.
- Sustained Phase 3 maturity
- Regulatory clarity (Howey, MiCA)
- Utility-bound design

Where this is going
Phase 1 ships verified gameplay infrastructure. Phase 2 ships it on mainnet at scale. Phase 3 decentralizes attestation.
What’s beyond is research, not roadmap.
The agent era will need competitive environments that nothing operates against you — replay-deterministic, economically staked, neutral by default. Cross-class arenas at scale — human × human, agent × agent, and the matchups in between — will produce verified data of a kind that doesn’t exist yet.
Autonomous dispute resolution is a research direction. Verified data as substrate for what comes next is a research direction. Neither is a product on a schedule.
The substrate is the point. The games are how we get there.
