ROADMAP

Where the boundary goes next.

This roadmap describes what we are working on, not a release schedule or a promise that every item is already available.

MCP Boundary leads the near-term work. Core hardening and further target systems follow as foundation tracks.

Now

Local MCP Boundary workflow

Install mcpboundary locally, add one MCP server profile, route selected calls through the boundary, and inspect tools, policy, and activity in the local dashboard.

Next

Human approval and clear agent feedback

Approval flow for exact pending actions: the tool result says approval required, the dashboard shows the queue, and there is no generic run-anyway bypass.

Next

Email action verification

Keep email work scoped: read metadata, create drafts, send only when intentionally enabled, and tell the agent when an email was not sent.

Soon

Simpler setup and better diagnostics

Easier first-run setup and profile import, plus clearer activity views for blocked, failed, and completed calls.

Soon

Releases and scoped server evidence

Refreshed Windows ZIP, a Linux artifact with checksums, and more real MCP servers tested with exactly labeled evidence.

Foundation

Core: decision hardening, evidence, and replay

Deepen explicit policy inputs, observed state, and outcome recording, with a replay path that explains decisions without recreating impact.

Later

Larger local workspace control

More configured profiles, better diagnostics, and richer policy authoring while staying local and profile-based.

Later

More target systems, cloud later

Apply the same pattern to more bounded target systems; hosted convenience only after local scope and isolation are strong enough.

No claim of production security, DLP, prompt-injection protection, or broad tool compatibility. See current limits.

Have a real MCP workflow that needs a boundary?

The most useful roadmap input is one concrete MCP server or workflow: which tools should be visible, which calls may run, and which effects must be stopped or reviewed before they reach the real system?
