Confidence Matrix — Waggle V1 Pre-Production Qualification

Historical snapshot — superseded. This score records evidence as of 2026-03-20 and is not the current readiness score or launch authority. See 09-LAUNCH_RECOMMENDATION.md for the current Windows-first Solo scope, external gates, and recommendation.

Overall Score: 6.9 / 10

Dimension	Score	Key Evidence
Functional Correctness	8/10	3,895 tests pass across 277 files, zero failures. All 8 Kill List items have adequate+ coverage. Agent loop, memory, vault all architecturally sound. Gaps: some PM features lack frontend UI wiring.
User Experience	6/10	Direction D at ~78% compliance. Emotional assessment 4.1/5. Strongest: Cockpit (4.3), Capabilities (4.3). Weakest: Settings (3.4). Two CRITICAL UX issues (invisible loading, wrong splash colors). Light theme would break multiple components.
Security Posture	5/10	2 CRITICAL + 7 HIGH security issues. CORS wide open. CSP defeated. Refresh tokens plaintext. WebSockets unauthenticated. Approval auto-approves. But: vault AES-256-GCM correct, SQL parameterized, path traversal protected, CLI allowlisted, DOMPurify used. Foundation solid, configuration broken.
Test Coverage	7/10	3,895 tests, strong unit coverage (agent: 1,272, server: 904). Kill List fully covered. Gaps: zero React rendering tests, zero browser E2E, SSE/vault failure paths untested. Rating: B-.
Build Readiness	5/10	Vite builds (5.1s, 735KB chunk). Docker valid. Tauri Windows builds (8.2MB installer). macOS missing config. npx waggle not publishable. 87 TS errors. CI targets wrong branch. No Docker/lint/security in CI.
Plan Compliance	8/10	54/60 feature slices DONE (93%). All PM features implemented at API level. Phase 7 KVARK milestones A-D complete. Phase 8 waves A-D confirmed. 6 partial slices mostly in deployment wave.
Documentation	7/10	README present. Guides directory exists. Architecture documented. CLAUDE.md comprehensive. API reference present. Some guides are stubs rather than complete walkthroughs.
Product Completeness	8/10	All 8 Kill List use cases functional. 29 connectors + Composio. 15K+ marketplace packages. 8 personas. Dark/light mode. Keyboard shortcuts. Onboarding with memory import. Cost tracking. Backup/restore. Offline detection. Workspace templates.

Dimension Details

Functional Correctness (8/10)

Strengths:

• 3,895 tests across 277 files, zero failures
• Agent loop has proper turn limits, loop guards, injection scanning
• Mind DB uses WAL mode, FTS5 for search, sqlite-vec for embeddings
• Vault uses AES-256-GCM with random IVs correctly
• 53 agent tools with path traversal protection and CLI allowlists
• Connector registry with error isolation
• Cron scheduler with concurrency guard

Gaps:

• Rate-limit retry can cause infinite agent loop (HIGH)
• Token budget not enforced (agent could run up costs)
• Conversation history unbounded in RAM
• KVARK client implemented but not wired into running server

User Experience (6/10)

Strengths:

• Workspace Home provides "pick up where I left off" continuity
• Three-layer tool transparency (compact → expand → detail)
• Approval gates inline in chat flow
• Onboarding with memory import (ChatGPT, Claude)
• 8 personas with mid-conversation switching
• Global search (Cmd+K), keyboard shortcuts for all views
• Cockpit is best view — comprehensive system overview

Gaps:

• Streaming indicator invisible (CRITICAL — users can't tell agent is thinking)
• Splash screen wrong palette (first impression is off-brand)
• Light theme broken across multiple components
• Settings view has no error recovery
• ~22% of components still non-compliant with Direction D

Security Posture (5/10)

Strengths:

• AES-256-GCM vault encryption is correctly implemented
• SQL queries use parameterized statements throughout
• File operations use resolveSafe() path traversal protection
• CLI tools use execFileAsync with allowlist (no shell injection)
• DOMPurify for markdown HTML sanitization
• SecurityGate for marketplace package vetting

Blockers (must fix):

• CORS reflects any origin → any website can call Waggle APIs
• CSP has unsafe-eval + unsafe-inline → XSS protection defeated
• OAuth refresh tokens in plaintext metadata field
• WebSocket endpoints lack authentication
• Approval gates auto-approve on timeout
• API key persists in git history

Test Coverage (7/10)

Strong areas:

• Agent package: 95 files, 1,272 tests
• Server package: 86 files, 904 tests
• Core package: well-tested (mind DB, vault, cron)
• All tests behavior-focused with realistic mocks

Weak areas:

• UI package: 27 test files for 102 source files (26% file coverage)
• Admin-web: 1 test file for 10 source files
• Zero React component rendering tests anywhere
• Zero browser-automated E2E tests
• SSE/WebSocket failure paths untested

Build Readiness (5/10)

Working:

• Vite builds successfully (5.1s, needs code splitting)
• Docker multi-stage build with health checks
• Tauri Windows NSIS installer (8.2MB)
• Render.com blueprint validated
• GitHub Actions CI + release workflow exists

Broken/Missing:

• npx waggle: bin→.ts file, workspace dep won't resolve
• macOS: no DMG, no code signing, no notarization
• Docker runs as root, retains build tools
• CI targets master not main
• No lint/security scanning in CI
• 87 TypeScript errors (69 unused imports)
• Empty Tauri updater pubkey

Plan Compliance (8/10)

Complete (54/60 slices):

• Wave 9A (UI/UX): 12/12 ✅ (with Phase 10 rewrite)
• Wave 9B (Connectors): 8/8 ✅ (29 connectors)
• Wave 9C (Marketplace): 5/5 ✅ (15K+ packages)
• Wave 9E (Intelligence): 6/6 ✅ (GEPA, personas, feedback)
• Wave 9F (Documentation): 4/4 ✅
• PM Features: 6/6 ✅ (at API level)

Partial (6 slices):

• Wave 9D (Deployment): 3-5/7 (macOS, npx, auto-update incomplete)
• Wave 9G (Hardening): 4/5 (accessibility informal, Playwright screenshot-only)
