BusLane Roadmap

This roadmap reflects the current BusLane codebase and planned feature work as of February 17, 2026.

Have a feature request? Open an issue or start a discussion.

Current Baseline (Already in Product)

  • Multi-connection tab workflow with session restore
  • Queue/topic/subscription browsing with DLQ support
  • Message operations: peek, send, filter/search, bulk actions, export/import
  • Live stream, charts, alerts, and namespace dashboard
  • Connection library with encrypted storage
  • Keyboard shortcuts and improved desktop UX (including app menu/About)
  • Update checking/downloading infrastructure and cross-platform packaging groundwork

2026 Feature Roadmap

Horizon 1: Message Workflow Excellence (Q1 2026)

1. Message Templates v2

  • Parameterized templates (tokens like {{OrderId}})
  • Template categories/tags and quick search
  • Duplicate/edit from existing message payload

2. Safer Bulk Operations

  • Dry-run preview for bulk delete/resend actions
  • Progress + partial-failure summary UI
  • Optional operation confirmation rules for destructive actions

3. Session-Aware Operations

  • Better tools for session-enabled queues (session drill-down and diagnostics)
  • Persist last-used session filters per tab

Horizon 2: Monitoring & Incident Response (Q2 2026)

4. Historical Metrics

  • Persist metric snapshots locally with configurable retention
  • Time-range comparisons (last hour/day/week)
  • Trend overlays for queue depth and DLQ growth

5. Dashboard Presets

  • Save/load dashboard presets per namespace
  • One-click reset to default layout
  • Import/export dashboard configuration

6. Alerting Improvements

  • Quiet hours and rule cooldown windows
  • Better rule testing experience and alert history panel
  • Optional notification channels beyond in-app toast (pluggable)

Horizon 3: 1.0 Readiness (Q3 2026)

7. Distribution & Trust

  • Production-ready installers/signing pipeline
  • macOS notarization, Windows installer polish, Linux package validation
  • Release quality gates and smoke-check checklist

8. Reliability & Performance

  • Performance pass for large message/entity sets
  • Better reconnection handling for intermittent network/auth failures
  • Memory usage guardrails for long-running live stream sessions

9. Documentation & Onboarding

  • End-to-end user guide with common workflows
  • Troubleshooting playbooks (auth, permissions, connectivity)
  • Feature walkthroughs for dashboards, alerts, and bulk operations

Future / Discovery Backlog

These are intentionally unscheduled until core 1.0 goals are complete.

  • Azure Event Hubs support
  • Azure Storage Queues support
  • Message scheduling calendar and replay tooling
  • Shared team profiles/connection bundles (secure)
  • AI-assisted search/triage helpers

Prioritization Rules

When tradeoffs are needed, prioritize work in this order:

  1. Reliability and data safety
  2. High-frequency operator workflows
  3. Monitoring signal quality
  4. Platform distribution polish
  5. Experimental features

Definition of Done for Roadmap Items

Each item is considered complete only when:

  • Unit/integration tests are added or updated
  • UI behavior is validated on macOS, Windows, and Linux paths where applicable
  • User-facing docs are updated
  • No secrets or sensitive data are introduced in logs/telemetry

This roadmap is a living document and will be updated as priorities evolve.
