Description

Restructure all 8 FUTURE_*.md files from unfocused "2035 quantum consciousness" sci-fi to a grounded, phased roadmap: 2026 near-term → 2027–2029 → 2030–2033 → 2034–2037 visionary horizon. Each file now accounts for Anthropic Opus 4.6 baseline (minor updates ~2.3mo, major annually), competitor LLMs (GPT-N, Gemini, Llama), open-source models, and AGI trajectory.

Also fixes SWOT.md and DATA_MODEL.md which had stale 2024-Q1 timelines and a Jetty 12 migration reference that no longer applies.

FUTURE_*.md (all 8 files)

  • Consistent structure: AI/LLM evolution table → 2026 vision → 2027–2029 → 2030–2033 → 2034–2037
  • Practical mermaid diagrams (C4, flowcharts, state machines, mindmaps, quadrant charts, timelines)
  • Provider-agnostic AI architecture principles, graceful degradation, human-in-the-loop
  • Technology stack evolution tables per phase

Current-state fixes

  • SWOT.md: Replaced 2024-Q1 through 2025-Q3 gantt dates with 2025-Q32026+; swapped Jetty 12 migration for AI analytics priorities
  • DATA_MODEL.md: Replaced Q3 2024/Q1 2025/Q3 2025 evolution timeline with 2026+ roadmap; added FUTURE_DATA_MODEL.md cross-reference

Additional Notes

All 8 FUTURE files follow identical phasing structure for consistency. The AI evolution assumptions (Opus 4.6 baseline, ~2.3mo minor / annual major cadence) are stated upfront in each document so readers understand the planning basis.

Security Considerations

  • No sensitive data exposed
  • Security best practices followed
  • Compliance requirements met

Release Notes

Updated all FUTURE_*.md architecture documents with structured 2026–2037 roadmap covering AI/LLM evolution (Anthropic Opus 4.6 → competitors → AGI). Fixed outdated 2024 timelines in SWOT.md and DATA_MODEL.md.
