Accessing the Private GitHub Repository

When I become a paying Lattice customer, I want to access the private GitHub repository, so I can follow the development roadmap, track upcoming features, and report issues that influence product direction.

---

Introduction

At Lattice, we believe in transparent development. Every paying customer gets direct access to our private GitHub repository—not just to view the code, but to actively participate in shaping the product’s future. You can follow our roadmap, see exactly what features are in development, and report issues that directly influence what we build next.

This guide shows you how to navigate the Lattice GitHub repository and make the most of your customer access.

Getting Repository Access

When you subscribe to Lattice, you’ll receive an invitation to the private navam-io/lattice repository on GitHub. Accept the invitation using your GitHub account, and you’ll have immediate access to:

• Source code — The complete Lattice codebase
• Project roadmap — Our GitHub Projects board with planned features
• Issue tracker — Bug reports and feature requests
• Discussions — Community conversations with the team

Following the Lattice Roadmap

The Lattice Roadmap is maintained as a GitHub Projects board, giving you a clear view of what’s coming next. The board is organized into columns:

• Todo — Features that are planned but not yet started
• In Progress — Features currently being developed
• Done — Completed features with their release versions

Understanding Labels

The left sidebar shows labels that help you filter the roadmap by area of interest:

Label	Description
area:rag	Features related to RAG and knowledge retrieval
area:scenario-stack	Scenario and stack configuration features
area:settings	Application settings and preferences
area:studio	Studio panel and artifact features
area:what-if	What-if analysis capabilities
area:workflow	Workflow automation features
bug	Bug fixes and corrections
feature-slice	Major feature implementations
status:released	Features that have shipped

Click any label to filter the board and see only relevant items.

Exploring Feature Details

Each roadmap item links to a detailed GitHub issue. Opening an issue reveals:

Version Targeting

Every feature shows its target version (e.g., “Version: 0.8.5”) so you know which release will include it.

Rationale

We include the reasoning behind each feature—often with quotes from customer conversations. This transparency helps you understand why certain features are prioritized.

Detailed Task Lists

Each feature breaks down into specific implementation tasks with checkboxes. You can see exactly what work remains before a feature ships.

Spec References

Features link to specification documents (e.g., backlog/scenario-stack-spec.md) where you can read the full technical design.

Reporting Issues

Your feedback directly influences the Lattice roadmap. To report an issue:

1. Navigate to Issues — Click the “Issues” tab in the repository
2. Check for Duplicates — Search existing issues to avoid duplicates
3. Create New Issue — Click “New issue” and select the appropriate template
4. Provide Details — Include steps to reproduce, expected behavior, and screenshots

Issue Templates

We provide templates for:

• Bug Report — Something isn’t working as expected
• Feature Request — A capability you’d like to see added
• Documentation — Improvements to docs or guides

What Makes a Good Issue

The best issues include:

• Clear title — Summarize the problem or request
• Reproduction steps — How can we see the issue?
• Expected vs. actual — What should happen vs. what does happen?
• Context — Your use case and why this matters to you
• Screenshots — Visual evidence when applicable

Influencing the Roadmap

Your issues don’t disappear into a void. Here’s how customer feedback shapes development:

1. Triage — We review every issue within 48 hours
2. Labeling — Issues get categorized by area and priority
3. Roadmap Integration — High-impact requests become feature slices
4. Version Planning — Features are scheduled into upcoming releases
5. Release Notes — You’ll see your influence reflected in shipped versions

Customers who actively participate often see their requested features prioritized. The rationale sections in our feature specs frequently reference customer conversations.
