ROADMAP — Keysat

Longer-term backlog. Near-term state lives in AGENTS.md → Current state.

Payments & subscriptions

• Rail-preference editing UI — only matters when two providers on one profile both serve the same rail; settable today via PUT /v1/admin/merchant-profiles/:id/rail-preferences/:rail.
• Auto-charge silently lapses a subscription on a 200-with-failure response (money-path bug; elevated above the other parked payments items). try_auto_charge_zaprite returns Ok(true) on any HTTP 2xx (subscriptions.rs:1403-1410), reading the order status only for a log line. If Zaprite returns 200 carrying a FAILED/DECLINED/EXPIRED order status, the daemon fires auto_charge_initiated and then waits for an order.paid webhook that never arrives — the subscription silently lapses, no error surfaced, the customer churns. Safe fix (no production data needed): treat any non-PAID terminal order status as not-success and fall through to the manual-pay path — a conservative fail-safe, ~10 lines + a mock-provider test. (Found during the 2026-06-17 adjudication; it replaces the old "harden Zaprite failure-body shapes" item, which was already satisfied for non-2xx responses — those route correctly to WARN + auto_charge_failed audit + webhook + manual-pay fallback.)

Agent compatibility & scoped API keys

• Agent-delegable payment-provider connect (approved, not urgent — see plans/agent-payment-connect-scope.md). Add an à-la-carte payment_providers:write scope (never bundled into merchant-onboard), gated by a daemon-level sandbox-mode flag as the outer gate (production daemons reject scoped connect entirely) with a network gate inner defense (regtest/testnet/signet only, fail-closed to mainnet). BTCPay network is derived from an on-chain address prefix (no server/info field exists).
• Onboarding doc-harness — Stage 2 (Path 2, regtest buyer-pays). Gated on slices 3–5 above. Stage 1 (Path 1, no payments) shipped completed-clean this session — harness at licensing-service-startos/onboarding-harness/, record in its STAGE1-RESULT.md. Stage 2 reuses the harness but boots the fixture with KEYSAT_SANDBOX_MODE on, stands up a Dockerized BTCPay regtest stack (bitcoind regtest + NBXplorer + Postgres + BTCPay) as additional disposable infra, and grants the agent merchant-onboard + payment_providers:write. Goal: the agent connects BTCPay (regtest) over the API and drives a test buyer payment that activates a license, with zero master-key steps. The walkthrough must be explicitly labeled regtest/test-network and must state that connecting a real mainnet wallet is the one operator-reserved step by design (a key that can redirect funds stays with the human) — a security feature, not a gap.

Packaging & distribution

• Start9 Community Registry submission — a 2026-06-17 spec check found the wrapper passes the functional criteria (manifest, interfaces, health check, backup/restore, BTCPay dep, actions). Remaining gap before submission: add a prepare.sh to set up a clean Debian box for the first build (copy the one from hello-world-startos), then run the on-box manual verification (install / backup / restore / logs). Submission criteria themselves remain unpublished; reach out to Start9 when ready. (Icon-render and the source-available license are intentionally not treated as blockers.)

Operability & alerts

• Surface internal failure conditions to the operator via StartOS-native notifications / health checks — NOT a bespoke email/SMTP subsystem. The need is real and not covered by the webhook-delegation model: when the failure IS the webhook path (a dead-lettered endpoint, or the operator's receiver being down), a webhook can't report it, and the operator's own email pipeline is downstream of the same webhooks. So Keysat must own an out-of-band operator-visible channel — and on StartOS that channel is the OS notification/health surface, not a mailer Keysat ships itself. Conditions worth alerting on (the surviving kernel of the dropped email plan): payment-provider auth dead (repeated 401s ⇒ key revoked/rotated), a webhook endpoint hitting dead-letter, master self-license expiring-soon / expired, and (optional) renewals failing across the pool. The health-check path is already wired; verify the start-sdk 1.3.2 notification API before committing to a delivery mechanism. Background + the original alert catalog (Tier 1/2/3, throttling) live in the superseded plans/keysat-smtp-emails.md. Buyer-facing email and the per-profile SMTP send path are dropped (decided 2026-06-18): operators selling via Keysat already own their buyer relationship and email pipeline through their own app + the existing webhooks, so Keysat emailing buyers is redundant and a branding/double-send liability. The dormant merchant_profiles.smtp_* columns (migration 0020) are now dead weight — left in place (a removal migration isn't worth it) and flagged in src/merchant_profiles.rs.

Licensing model

• Evaluate Elastic License v2 vs the current custom LicenseRef-Keysat-1.0 (parked decision).

Validation

• Re-test KEYSAT_INTEGRATION.md against a fresh downstream app to confirm a clean one-shot SDK integration.
• Add an automated regression test for multi-profile webhook routing (adjudicated 2026-06-17 → DO, low blast radius — replaces the parked "manual Zaprite sandbox pass"). The routing is a deterministic provider-id→profile primary-key lookup with an anti-forgery re-fetch backstop, so the manual sandbox ceremony isn't worth it — but the path-keyed route (/v1/{provider}/webhook/:provider_id → handle_for_provider) currently has zero automated coverage on the money path. Plan: in tests/api.rs, reuse the two-provider fixture (~:3958), POST a Settled webhook to /v1/zaprite/webhook/{provider-A-id}, assert only profile A settles (B untouched; an unknown path-id 404s). Existing mock seam, no external account, runs in cargo test. Effort S.
