Last updated: 2026-05-17
Organization policy: This document reorganizes all items in Remaining_Functionality into four categories based on source-code verification:
1. Update history
2. Detailed unimplemented items
3. Detailed in-progress items
4. Implemented items
Status determination criteria - Implemented: The implementation exists in the repository and is usable in at least unit, integration, or E2E tests. - In progress: Placeholder, partial implementation, staged migration, integration pending, or optimization in progress. - Unimplemented: No repository implementation exists, or completion depends on external operational/contractual procedures.

2026-04-24 operational hardening update
evospikenet.apino longer pretends to support a limited startup mode without PyTorch. It now fails fast with an explicit startup error.- Video-analysis production behavior can be forced fail-closed with
VIDEO_ANALYSIS_FAIL_CLOSED=true, and degraded responses now carrysource_backend,fallback_reason,quality_level, anddegraded. AvailabilityMonitorno longer starts a monitoring thread on module import. Model inference checks require an explicitmodel_health_checkcallback ormodel.health_check()implementation.- Distributed-brain strict mode (
EVOSPIKENET_STRICT_FUNCTIONAL_MODULES=true) no longer backfills missing genome / chromosome / topology with default modules.

2.6 2026-04-18/19 source-revalidation updates
This section records classification fixes and implementation-plan updates after re-checking current source under evospikenet/, rag-system/, and related tests.
2.6.1 Classification corrections
- XAI / fail-safe / social-learning / MAML should no longer be treated as "fully untouched" because foundational scaffolding exists in foundation extension modules and API modules; the remaining gap is production-level completion.
- Security features with concrete implementation (AES-256-GCM + PBKDF2 at-rest path, cert rotation operation APIs) should be tracked as operational-integration pending rather than unimplemented.
- Additional language bindings status should reflect that Swift bindings exist; remaining gaps are other language ecosystems.
2.6.2 Added implementation-tracking items
| Added item | Background | Expected outcome |
|---|---|---|
| Doc/Test/Code status consistency audit | Legacy unimplemented labels remained after code changes | Reliable priority and quality-gate decisions |
| Long-run SLO validation (72h+) | Features exist but production-runtime evidence is limited | MTTR/failure-rate evidence for rollout decisions |
| Cloud/edge control-plane automation | Distributed building blocks exist but orchestration remains weak | Better latency/cost/availability tradeoff |
| Video/audio time-series analysis pipeline | Dedicated pose/tracking/action/asr modules were initially absent | Practical multimodal workload readiness |
2.6.3 Progress update: video-analysis + RAG background jobs
- 2026-04-18 (video-analysis PoC baseline): added
evospikenet/video_analysis/pose.py,tracking.py,action_recognition.py,asr.py,fusion.py, andevospikenet/api_modules/video_analysis_api.py, with new unit/integration tests. - 2026-04-18 (video-analysis operational hardening): queue modes
auto/redis/sqlite/json, centralizedconfig/video_analysis_config.yaml, and backend-performance metrics exposed at/api/video-analysis/queue/status. - 2026-04-19 (RAG background jobs):
- Added
rag-celery-workerand Redis-backed Celery environment wiring in both rootdocker-compose.ymlandrag-system/docker-compose.yml. - Added
celery/redisruntime dependencies torag-system/requirements.txt. - Hardened
rag-system/rag_api.pyso/upload_statuscan return progress even when local in-memory tracker is absent but Redis progress exists. - Added Redis-only status coverage in
tests/unit/test_rag_status.py. - Added
rag-system/.env.examplefor reproducible environment setup.
- Added
2.6.4 Remaining gaps after these updates
- Real model deployment/inference assets for MoveNet/Whisper/ST-GCN are still pending operational packaging.
- Video-analysis queue backplane still needs final production validation under target infrastructure.
- CI quality gates tied to threshold metrics are still pending final rollout.
- RAG Celery/Redis path is implemented; remaining work is operational verification and runbook hardening.

evospikenet/api_modules/video_analysis_api.pyand connected Celery task execution inevospikenet/video_analysis/worker.py. - Cloud/edge control plane: implemented scoring breakdown + constraints in
