Feature proposals for the Beam Bots robotics framework.
- Draft — Create a proposal using the template
- Discuss — Open a PR, gather feedback
- Accept — Merge when ready to implement
- Implement — Build it
- Close — Update status when done
That's it. No committees, no final comment periods, no bureaucracy.

Proposals start in accepted/ when merged. Move to implemented/ when the feature ships. Move to rejected/ if we change our minds (with a note explaining why).
A proposal is a snapshot of intent at the time it was written, not a specification the code is held to. Implementations diverge. Where they have, the proposal carries an As shipped section recording what actually landed — read it before treating anything above it as current. Proposal 0021 is the model to follow when marking one implemented.
| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Draft | Open PR, under discussion. Not merged. |
| Accepted | Merged and agreed, in accepted/. Not built yet. |
| Implemented | Shipped, in implemented/. Check its "As shipped" section for divergences. |
| Rejected | Not proceeding, in rejected/, with the reasoning recorded. |
Proposals are numbered sequentially: 0001, 0002, etc. Use the next available number when opening a PR — check open PRs too, not just merged ones.
Numbers are never reused, including by proposals that were withdrawn. 0010–0013 were never allocated.
See template.md for the proposal format.
