# Forge Guard — Milestone-Based Roadmap
> ✅ **All milestones are complete.** The framework is production-ready.
---
## 🏗️ Milestone 1: Project Scaffolding & Core Architecture
- [x] Create Rust Cargo project with dependencies
- [x] Implement core types, error handling, and config
- [x] Set up module structure (cli, security, plugins, chains, etc.)
- [x] Add MIT License, README, .gitignore
## 🎮 Milestone 2: CLI Framework
- [x] Implement CLI argument parsing with clap
- [x] Implement all subcommands: audit, deploy, deploy-safe, fuzz, invariant, simulate, gas, report, verify, doctor, watch, ci, benchmark, scan, upgrade-check, plugins, chain, security
- [x] Add global flags (--json, --markdown, --chain, --offline, --strict, etc.)
## 🔒 Milestone 3: Security Engine
- [x] Implement vulnerability detection framework
- [x] HIGH severity checks (reentrancy, access control, delegatecall, oracle, signatures, ERC20, bridge, flash loans, MEV, cross-chain, dependencies, unsafe imports, initializers, upgrade paths, clones, etc.)
- [x] MEDIUM severity checks (gas, casting, timestamp, storage, events, visibility, modifiers, math, access patterns)
- [x] LOW severity checks (naming, duplication, optimization, architecture, best practices)
- [x] INFORMATIONAL checks (style, readability, documentation, dev experience)
- [x] Security scoring system (0-100) with 11 category scores
## 🔌 Milestone 4: Plugin Architecture
- [x] Implement Plugin trait and PluginRegistry
- [x] Built-in plugins (ExamplePlugin, OfflineGuardPlugin)
- [x] External plugin support via IPC subprocess protocol
- [x] Plugin lifecycle management (list, install, remove, enable, disable, scaffold)
- [x] Plugin configuration via forge-guard.toml
## ⛓️ Milestone 5: Multi-Chain Support
- [x] Implement ChainId enum with 17 EVM chains
- [x] Chain name resolution and aliases (eth, arb, op, matic, etc.)
- [x] Registry via ChainRegistry
- [x] Chain info command (display, list, add, remove, test RPC)
## 📊 Milestone 6: Report Engine
- [x] Terminal report with color-coded findings and scores
- [x] JSON report generation
- [x] Markdown report generation with tables
- [x] Deployment analysis reports
- [x] Report configuration (snippets, exploit paths, recommendations)
## 🛡️ Milestone 7: Deployment Guard
- [x] Pre-deployment security check pipeline
- [x] Deployment simulation via forge script
- [x] MEV pattern detection (sandwich, flash loan, oracle, value extraction)
- [x] Security scoring and risk analysis
- [x] Block/allow deployment logic with severity configuration
- [x] `--force` bypass with warnings
- [x] `deploy-safe` command (non-bypassable mandatory security pass)
## 💥 Milestone 8: Exploit Engine
- [x] Exploit path generation from findings
- [x] Attack vector analysis linking vulnerabilities to exploit sequences
- [x] Storage collision and upgrade path analysis
## 🩺 Milestone 9: On-Chain Contract Verification
- [x] Block explorer URL registry for all 17 chains
- [x] forge verify-contract integration with auto-detection
- [x] RPC bytecode comparison (eth_getCode with metadata stripping)
- [x] Chain-specific env var detection (ETHERSCAN_API_KEY, etc.)
- [x] forge verify --all (bulk verification from broadcast receipts)
- [x] Auto-verify integration into forge deploy and deploy-safe
## 🔧 Milestone 10: Gas, Dependencies, Fuzzing, CI, Benchmark
- [x] Gas analysis engine (gas problems, storage inefficiencies)
- [x] Dependency vulnerability database (32 entries across OpenZeppelin, Solmate, Solady, Uniswap, Chainlink, Wormhole, LayerZero, forge-std, PRBMath, solc)
- [x] Semver-aware version matching with constraint parsing
- [x] Online vulnerability database update (HTTP fetch with JSON cache)
- [x] Fuzzing adapter interface (forge fuzz integration)
- [x] CI/CD template generation (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Bitbucket Pipelines, Azure DevOps)
- [x] Benchmark runner with comparison mode
## 🤖 Milestone 11: AI-Powered Auditing
- [x] Real HTTP providers: OpenAI (GPT-4), Anthropic Claude, Ollama (local)
- [x] Structured Solidity audit prompts for security, gas, and logic
- [x] JSON response parsing with severity mapping
- [x] Context windowing (automatic chunking for large contracts)
- [x] Cross-provider consensus engine with confidence boosting
- [x] Finding deduplication via title keyword overlap analysis
- [x] CLI integration: forge-guard audit --ai, --ai-provider, --ai-model, --ai-full
## 🧪 Milestone 12: Testing & Documentation
- [x] Unit tests for all modules (130+ tests across the entire codebase)
- [x] Integration tests for security engine, plugins, dependencies
- [x] Performance benchmarks
- [x] Comprehensive README with architecture, commands, config, examples
- [x] CONTRIBUTING.md with development workflow and code style guide
- [x] Continuous integration pipelines via auto-generated CI configs
## ⚡ Milestone 13: Post-MVP Polish
- [x] `forge-guard audit --quick` mode — skip parser-heavy checks (reentrancy, access control), only run pattern-based HIGH/CRITICAL findings for lightning-fast results (~5x)
- [x] `forge-guard audit --summary` — show concise executive summary with verdict, top action items, improvement areas
- [x] Executive summary report — `generate_executive_summary()` with PASS/FAIL verdict, finding breakdown, top 5 action items, worst-performing categories
- [x] Incremental file analysis — SHA-256 content hash caching via `Cache::filter_changed_files()` and `record_file_hash()`, unchanged files skipped on re-runs
- [x] Quick mode integration tests — 10 integration tests validating quick mode vs full mode, clean contracts, cache consistency, modified detection, filter accuracy
