+
+## ⚡ Why SQLoot
+
+- 🌍 Grow the local-first community and make the ecosystem easier to discover and adopt.
+- 🛠️ Build practical tools and a robust CLI for developers and operators.
+- ⚡ Push performance in critical paths with Zig/Rust and systems-level optimizations.
+- 🧩 Keep Evolu compatibility while delivering upgrades and upstream-ready improvements.
+- 🧪 Run experiments, publish benchmarks, and propose new local-first specs where needed.
+- 🤖 Advance local-first collaboration patterns for AI agents.
+
+## 🤝 Foundation: Evolu
+
+SQLoot currently runs on top of an Evolu-based baseline. Our immediate strategy is to preserve upstream compatibility, ship measurable improvements in our fork, and upstream changes where applicable.
+
+- Upstream project: [evoluhq/evolu](https://github.com/evoluhq/evolu)
+- Upstream docs: [evolu.dev](https://www.evolu.dev)
+- SQLoot baseline fork: [SQLoot/evolu-plan-b](https://github.com/SQLoot/evolu-plan-b)
+
+Credit where it belongs: huge respect to [evoluhq](https://github.com/evoluhq) and [@steida](https://github.com/steida) for creating Evolu and moving the local-first ecosystem forward.
+
+## 🧱 What SQLoot Is Building
+
+| Track | Role | Current State |
+|---|---|---|
+| `evolu-plan-b` | Evolu-compatible Bun + Biome baseline | Public rollout |
+| `core` | SQLoot-native runtime foundations (Rust/Zig) | Planning |
+| `bench-suite` | Reproducible benchmark harness | WIP |
+| `relays` | Evolu-compatible relay implementations (Bun+Elysia/Rust/BEAM) | WIP |
+| `lootbox` | CLI umbrella, TUI, tools (Rust) | WIP |
+| `blind-cloud` | Encrypted cloud transport experiments (vault/relay/repacker) | Research |
+| `local-first` | Community forum, blog, wiki, guides | TBD |
+| `loot-cms` | File-based CMS, editor, sync storage | Research |
+| `loot-ops` | Org-wide platform glue for repos (Nix/IaC/CI) | Private |
+| `website` | Landing page, docs, bench measurements, stats | WIP |
+| `knowledge` | Obsidian KB, planning, issues, research | Internal |
+
+Public docs and public APIs are opening in phases as each track stabilizes.
+
+## 🗺️ 2026 Roadmap (WIP)
+
+### Milestone Progress (as of March 1, 2026)
+
+- [x] 📦 Public track for `evolu-plan-b` prepared (100%)
+- [x] 🧩 Evolu-based Bun-first baseline established (95%)
+- [ ] 🔌 Priority integrations (TanStack Start, Tauri, Astro) (75%)
+- [ ] 🧪 Benchmark harness foundation in `bench-suite` (45%)
+- [ ] 📊 Regression evidence gates (p50/p95/throughput/memory) (40%)
+- [ ] 🌐 Relay and transport hardening (`relays`, `blind-cloud`) (30%)
+- [ ] 🧱 SQLoot core bootstrap (`core`) (20%)
+- [ ] 🛠️ `lootbox` CLI baseline (scope, commands, packaging) (25%)
+- [ ] 📚 Public docs and evidence surfaces (`website`, `local-first`) (35%)
 
-Open-source infrastructure for intelligent data management.
+## 🎯 Next 4 Weeks
 
-> 🚧 **Coming Soon** - Repositories are currently private during development.
+1. Lock `evolu-plan-b` public baseline: keep CI green, tighten docs, and close rollout gaps.
+2. Ship `bench-suite` baseline lanes with reproducible report schema and first regression thresholds.
+3. Stabilize integration lanes for TanStack Start, Tauri, and Astro with actionable smoke outputs.
+4. Define and run relay hardening matrix for reconnect/load/failure handling in `relays`.
+5. Ship `lootbox` CLI v0 scope and first operator commands for workspace/bootstrap + benchmark flows.
