### Milestones, Dependencies, Risks

* **AI Assistant by Oct 30** → depends on eval thresholds (accuracy, latency), red‑team sweep, logging & cost caps.
* **NobleID by Oct 31** → depends on resolver stability, KPR signing & mirror jobs, OIDC discovery/JWKS.
* **Peer Review System by Nov 15** → requires reviewer assignment, forms, decision loop, reward flow; pilot venue lined up.
* **Collaboration & Poster by Nov 30** → depends on resolver comments/permissions; poster renderer QA.
* **CEX outreach Dec** → needs compliance pack, token economics brief (non‑custodial platform), legal review.

**Top Risks**: slipping MVP scope; partner security reviews; KOL conversion quality; venue integration timelines.\
**Mitigations**: strict MVP cut lines; security one‑pager + SOC‑like controls summary; weekly pipeline reviews; sandbox integrations.

***

### Launch Readiness Checklist (per release)

* Docs updated; resolver examples live; status page OK.
* Analytics & success metrics wired; UTM plans; dashboards.
* Support runbooks; incident & rollback plans; QA sign‑off.
* Legal & policy cues (privacy, terms, rewards).
