ROADMAP: done items moved out of "Next" (codegen rewrite, SSR bridge, edge manifest, X-Mizan-Invalidate, return-type branching, affects_params, kernel extraction, two-stage codegen, mizan-ts). Real "Next" in: framework-adapter wrapper layer (MizanContext + useMizan + DjangoError on top of the kernel) for React/Vue/Svelte; A1–A4 from ISSUES.md. CLAUDE: 4-package layout replaced with the actual 7-package layered architecture (backend protocol adapters + frontend kernel + framework adapters + SSR worker). "STALE codegen" section rewritten to describe what's emitted vs. the wrapper layer that isn't yet. docs/ now tracked (6 files). AFI_ARCHITECTURE rewritten — replaced the speculative `mizan-ast`/`mizan-csr`/`mizan-rpc`/`mizan-schema` package names with the real layout, dropped KDL-schema language for the actual schema-export format. The other 5 docs/ files were already current and are tracked as-is. ARCHITECTURE-REWORK.md deleted — same expert review is re-tracked in the fresher ISSUES.md, two parallel trackers was sediment. README.md deleted — drift was beyond surgical fixes (`mizan_clients.py` convention, `<DjangoContext>` provider, removed `@compose` and `context='local'`, wrong codegen output filenames, 3-package structure vs. 7). Rewrite waits for the wrapper-layer codegen to land so user-facing examples reflect reality. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Product Architecture
Revised April 2026.
Launch product: Mizan Render
$20/seat/month.
Protocol-aware Edge caching + PSR delivery via Cloudflare + render Workers + TS backend hosting via Workers for Platforms.
Developer's stack = their backend + database. Cloudflare handles read traffic, rendering, and caching.
Deferred: Mizan Deploy
Django hosting requires IaaS compliance: gVisor, KMS, NIS2, multi-state privacy. ~$5–8K legal costs.
Deferred until Render revenue funds it.
TS "Deploy" exists via Workers for Platforms at no additional compliance cost.
Free framework: mizan-cache (origin-side cache)
Python package implementing the full cache protocol locally — same HMAC key derivation, metadata schema, and purge semantics as Edge.
Three backends:
- In-memory dict (default)
- Redis
- SQLite
Dual purpose
- Makes the free framework genuinely powerful (PSR + typed hooks + invalidation + caching with zero cost).
- Provides a unit-testable surface for all cache mechanics without Cloudflare.
Spec additions
@client(cache=False)— uncacheable; emitsCache-Control: no-store.- Cache ABI:
get(key),put(key, response, metadata),purge(context, params).
Launch compliance (Render only)
Entirely Cloudflare Workers + management API (Django/Postgres):
- GDPR DPA + privacy policy + subprocessor list — ~$500–1K legal
- DMCA — $6
- No NIS2, no gVisor, no KMS
Invariant
All architecture decisions target the Render-only launch posture. Don't build Deploy infrastructure prematurely.
