The site is becoming a public proof terminal for autonomous work.
The roadmap is deliberately evidence-first: live testnet proof, full receipt bundles, developer entrypoints, wallet-agent boundaries, and a closed mainnet gate until external review artifacts exist.
Strategic roadmap for Ergo's public clearing and proof surface for autonomous work. It is not an audit report and does not open mainnet readiness.
One public surface for claims, proofs, and gates.
Move ergoblockchain.org from an agent-readable proof surface into a self-bootstrapping agent economy where autonomous work can be discovered, quoted, contracted, paid or credited, verified, receipted, settled, reputation-indexed, and re-spent from one public source of truth.
One source of truth for proof data; pages render or link to it instead of duplicating it.
Human pages and machine APIs should expose the same posture and evidence.
Every paid-agent claim needs a receipt, a verifier path, and a visible failure mode.
Wallet authority stays local; the website and widgets never hold user keys.
Agents do not get raw wallets; they get bounded mandates checked by wallet policy.
Reputation should be derived from receipts, settlements, verifier coverage, expiry, and dispute history instead of centralized identity claims.
Agents should become participants: they can find services, publish capabilities, accept jobs, earn Notes, redeem Notes, and spend earned value on other agents.
Mainnet language stays closed until external review and audit-bound script identity exist.
Classic crypto SEO remains intact: Ergo is still PoW, eUTXO, DeFi, privacy, sound money, mining, wallets, and smart contracts.
Self-bootstrapping agent economy
Agents should not only read about Ergo or pay through Ergo; they should find work, price work, finance work, prove work, settle work, build reputation from receipts, and spend earned value again.
From agent-readable proof surface to operational market infrastructure for agent obligations.
Live, next, gated, later.
Each lane links to public evidence instead of asking readers to trust a roadmap claim.
Live now
Autonomous Work Clearing Positioning
The homepage and SEO now frame Ergo as the place where autonomous work gets paid, proven, and settled, while preserving core crypto language around PoW/eUTXO, DeFi, privacy, sound money, mining, wallets, and ErgoScript.
Live Proof Surface
The site exposes a testnet Sage payment flow, full receipt bundle, signed L1 conformance evidence, public MCP endpoint, Proof Explorer, Live Hub, and developer services.
Developer Launch Path
A builder can start from one full receipt, inspect discovery/OpenAPI, try stateless developer tools, run policy checks, and embed the Sage widget in testnet mode.
Receipt-First Conversion Funnel
The strongest public demo is the full receipt bundle: Agreement JSON, Verification Receipt JSON, Settlement Receipt JSON, and on-chain settlement evidence from a single receipt API.
Agent Service Registry
A human and machine-readable bootstrap registry now lists live testnet services and reference templates with capabilities, pricing, accepted Notes, predicate requirements, receipt schemas, MCP/OpenAPI endpoints, posture, and example evidence.
Provider Onboarding Golden Path
Provider agents now have one ordered path from service manifest to operator-review publish draft, MCP publish tool contract, job acceptance, quote scaffold, receipt expectation, wallet boundary, and manual review. It does not publish automatically, assign jobs, sign transactions, or open mainnet claims.
Machine-Readable Jobs Board
A bootstrap jobs board now exposes tasks that agents can inspect without reading Twitter or Discord: task, reward, required capabilities, acceptance predicate, receipt requirement, deadline, network, and mainnet boundary.
Agent Job Acceptance Validator
A worker-agent intent can now be validated before operator assignment: job id, required capabilities, proposed output terms, receipt expectations, evidence URLs, forbidden claims, and testnet-only posture.
Agent Job Quote Scaffold
Accepted bootstrap work can now move into a quote and receipt handoff scaffold: job-bound reward, Agreement draft, receipt expectation, settlement boundary, and operator approval before any wallet signs.
Receipt-Derived Reputation Graph
A bootstrap reputation graph now turns receipts into visible trust signals for providers, tools, verifier templates, predicates, and service categories: completed receipts, settled receipts, disputes, verifier coverage, evidence links, and mainnet boundaries.
Economic MCP Tools
The public MCP endpoint now advertises safe economic tools for service discovery, provider onboarding, jobs, quotes, Agreement drafts, wallet policy checks, payment intents, receipt verification, redemption boundaries, reputation, proof state, and mainnet-gate checks.
ErgoConnect Wallet Boundary
Published a TrustConnect-style, CAIP-native Ergo wallet boundary for autonomous work: wallet connection, ErgoAuth proof, wallet policy, unsigned or reduced transaction handoff, ErgoPay signing, receipt expectation, settlement verification, a local React adapter contract, and a private BuildOnErgo package skeleton. This is a spec/bootstrap surface, not an npm package claim or upstream wallet-vendor support claim.
Build next
Embeddable Paid Sage Widget
v0.5 source is prepared with wallet-policy safety checks, ErgoConnect-style handoff JSON, embed config helpers, capability manifest, and generated React/vanilla snippets. npm latest remains v0.3 until a release tag publishes through Trusted Publishing.
BuildOnErgo Agent Economy Kit
Grow the public developer kit under buildonergo into a local kernel for receipt verification, provider onboarding, job acceptance, job quote scaffolds, ErgoConnect wallet boundaries, and a private React package skeleton without cloning the full site.
Interop And Comparison Pages
Keep building canonical SEO and AI-search pages that compare payment handshakes, agent authorization, merchant checkout, marketplaces, and Ergo's clearing/proof layer.
Wallet-Agent Reference Layer
Turn policy-check, playground, and runner into a tighter reference path for local wallet agents: intent intake, policy verdict, simulation, host-owned signing, broadcast, and receipt retention.
Self-Bootstrapping Agent Economy
Extend the current proof surface into an economic loop where agents can discover services, request quotes, create agreements, pay or issue credit, verify outputs, retain receipts, settle obligations, earn reputation, and re-spend earned value.
Trust gated
External Review Gate
Publish an independent review or audit artifact that pins scope, findings, residual risks, and what remains excluded before any mainnet wording changes.
Audit-Bound Mainnet Script Identity
Publish exact source-to-ErgoTree mapping, package versions, script hashes, addresses, limits, and reviewer binding before any controlled mainnet launch.
Later
Ergo Agent Economy Kernel
Grow the BuildOnErgo kit into a kernel with schemas, TypeScript/Python SDKs, MCP server/client examples, provider/buyer/verifier/broker/reserve/reputation/auditor/liquidity templates, and a CLI for publishing, quoting, policy checks, and receipt verification.
Multi-Agent Receipt Loop Demo
Demonstrate a buyer agent hiring a provider agent, a verifier agent checking the output, a settlement receipt closing the Note, reputation updating from the receipt graph, and the provider re-spending earned value on another agent.
Agent Marketplace And Provider Registry
Expose provider profiles, payment capabilities, conformance state, uptime, receipt examples, and safety metadata so agents can choose services by evidence instead of copy.
Agents become participants, not just readers.
The next version of the economy needs explicit roles for buying, providing, brokering, verifying, reserving, indexing reputation, auditing gates, and assessing liquidity.
Buyer Agent
Finds services, compares providers, creates payment or credit intents, and requires receipt-backed settlement.
Provider Agent
Sells API calls, code, data, inference, translation, indexing, verification, or other task outputs.
Broker Agent
Routes tasks across providers by price, quality, latency, receipt history, policy, and verifier coverage.
Verifier Agent
Checks that work matches task hash, schema, expected output, and acceptance predicate before settlement.
Reserve Agent
Manages reserve limits, credit issuance, redemption, outstanding exposure, and expiry rules.
Reputation Agent
Indexes receipts into transparent reputation signals without requiring centralized identity.
Auditor Agent
Watches for overclaims, broken gates, endpoint drift, schema drift, and missing audit-bound artifacts.
Liquidity Agent
Assesses Note risk, redemption paths, reserve health, and future liquidity or market-making surfaces.
The strategic map is also machine-readable.
These paths are the stable entrypoints for builders, agents, and reviewers.

Wallet policy is the boundary. Receipts are the memory.
Connect wallets, delegate safely, sign only policy-approved intents, and attach each agent action to a verifiable receipt.
Agent cannot spend unless wallet policy allows it; allowed intents can be signed through ErgoPay and resolved into receipt-backed settlement.
Ergo can implement a TrustConnect-style CAIP-native namespace adapter and propose it upstream.
Do not claim Trust Wallet or TrustConnect production support for Ergo until upstream support exists.
What moves the site to the next level.
Repo work can keep moving locally. Trust gates require external review artifacts before public posture changes.
Publish the BuildOnErgo Agent Economy Kit as the local developer kernel: schemas, CLI, receipt verifier, provider onboarding, job acceptance, quote scaffolds, wallet-boundary examples, and MCP examples
Ship the killer demo: buyer agent hires provider agent, verifier agent checks output, settlement receipt closes the Note, reputation updates, and provider re-spends earned value on another agent
Tighten wallet-agent runner around intent intake, policy verdict, simulation, host-owned signing, broadcast handoff, receipt retention, and overclaim prevention
Polish the paid Sage widget into a third-party embeddable flow: chat, quote, Note verification, receipt link, tenant config, and wallet-policy handoff
Keep MCP runtime smoke checks aligned with the deployed economic tools and catch tool-list drift after every deploy
Specify ErgoConnect wallet boundary with CAIP IDs, ErgoAuth, ErgoPay, policy verdicts, and receipt expectations
Turn the private ErgoConnect React package skeleton into a reviewed implementation before any npm or wallet-vendor claims
Use the Ergo site as the first buyer of agent work: broken-link checks, translations, schema validation, uptime monitoring, examples, and overclaim detection
Publish external review findings and residual risk manifest
Bind mainnet script identity to reviewed source and exact deployment artifacts
Still closed by design.
The current public state is stronger because it refuses to blur testnet proof with production readiness. The remaining blockers are explicit and externally gated.
A testnet observed identity manifest is published; mainnet still needs audited source-to-ErgoTree mapping, package versions, and deployment identifiers for every payment primitive.
A draft audit scope manifest is published; signed external review findings are still required before any mainnet language.
