Open Questions

Security

What is the right authentication model for remote access? Current QUIC support is suitable for trusted local networks only.

Dynamic Message Support

Should Talos continue adding compiled-in conversions for common message types, or should it support generic ROS 2 message introspection?

Compiled-in conversions are simple and predictable. Generic conversion would cover more systems but adds complexity around type discovery, field traversal, and compatibility.

Services And Actions

Topic observation is the first priority. Service and action proxying could make Talos more capable, but they would expand the protocol and UI model significantly.

Documentation Versioning

The current plan is main/latest documentation only. If Talos starts shipping stable releases with incompatible behavior, versioned docs may become useful.

Rustdoc Publishing

Rustdoc should remain separate from this book. The open question is whether CI should also publish Rustdoc under a stable path, such as /api/, next to the mdBook output.
