+# Roadmap
+
+Source of truth for scope is [`CLAUDE.md`](../CLAUDE.md). This tracks sequencing.
+
+## POC — the one question (charter §17)
+
+> **Does bounded AI dialogue feel alive, or does it feel like a chatbot in a costume?**
+
+Test that before building anything else. ~30 minutes of play.
+
+### POC scope
+
+- One town, **two NPCs** with authored knowledge lists
+- One dungeon: **three fights, one boss**
+- **Two companions:** Cadwyn, Brannoc
+- **Three playable classes:** Sellsword, Assassin, Priest
+- Luck fully wired: generation, drift, one shrine, one cursed item
+- Full proxy, full role split, full canon log
+- Authored fallback text for every AI surface
+
+### Out of scope (charter §17)
+
+AI-generated story skeletons · multiplayer (never) · mobile · credits/payments/auth · companions leaving · positional combat · more than three classes.
+
+## Sequencing — TBD
+
+<!-- Fill in as phases are planned. Suggested spine:
+  1. Proxy skeleton + role endpoints + Ollama routing + logging
+  2. Canon log + one Narrator scene end-to-end (proves the loop)
+  3. One bounded NPC conversation (proves §6 — the core experiment)
+  4. Luck + Improviser + one shrine + one cursed item
+  5. Combat (deterministic, seeded) + the dungeon
+  6. Banter + humiliation log (proves the comedy loop)
