🗓️ Weekly Focus – Phase #4 Portal Refinement, Mainnet Lite Validation & PyClaw Phase #4 continues with Portal V1 as the primary focus, while Mainnet Lite validation and PyClaw development continue alongside it. 🔹 Phase #4 – Monitoring, Support & Stats - Continue monitoring routing, miners, validators, dashboards, indexers, and L3 stats. - Track stability as Portal V1, Mainnet Lite, and related Phase #4 workstreams continue to mature. 🔹 Portal V1 – Product Refinement - Continue refining Portal V1 now that the core path is working (auth, API keys, usage visibility, gateway, router pools, hosted requests). - Focus on usability, operational flow, reliability, and overall product readiness. 🔹 Portal V1 – Usage Metering Migration - Begin shifting Portal usage accounting from request-count based tracking toward token-based usage (input, output, total tokens). - Goal is fairer quotas, more accurate reporting, and a stronger foundation for future billing and plan controls. 🔹 Portal V1 – Gateway, Router Pool & Observability - Continue hardening Gateway → router-pool behavior, request tracking, and operational visibility. - Focus on reliability, observability, and hosted-path readiness under heavier usage. 🔹 Mainnet Lite – Baseline Validation - Continue validating Mainnet Lite baseline components and supporting infrastructure. - Main remaining check is deeper testing around the ephemeral-node network-task path. 🔹 Payment Staking – Regression & Hardening Tests - Continue the regression pass following the recent security-hardening rollout. - Goal remains validating the full staking/usage flow and confirming no regressions. 🔹 PyClaw – Dev Path Progress - Continue PyClaw iteration across workflow, side packages, tools, and repository structure. - Target remains a rough public development release next month so iteration can continue openly. This week is about continuing to mature Portal V1, validating the remaining Mainnet Lite baseline paths, and preparing PyClaw for its first public development cycle. #Cortensor #Testnet #Phase4 #AIInfra #DePIN #Portal #PyClaw #MainnetLite #L3

🛠️ DevLog – Mainnet Lite Baseline Validation: More Node-Pool Checks Today A quick follow-up on the current Mainnet Lite baseline checklist. 🔹 Current progress We’ve now prepared the 2nd and 3rd nodes for the node-pool baseline check on the Mainnet Lite side: - arbiscan.io/address/0xC161d6… - arbiscan.io/address/0xBB7D98… 🔹 What this is for This is part of the ongoing Mainnet Lite baseline validation around: - node-pool behavior - supporting infra/components - deeper validation of the remaining paths on the checklist 🔹 Main remaining area The main remaining check is still the deeper testing around the ephemeral-node network-task and user-task path. 🔹 Current direction So today’s work is mainly about using these additional nodes to keep pushing the remaining Mainnet Lite baseline checks forward and close out more of the checklist. #Cortensor #DevLog #MainnetLite #L2 #Infra #NodePool
