# NICE-TO-HAVE.md
# Future Enhancements for Conductor
The following features are considered desirable enhancements but are not required for the initial MVP.
---
# AI-Assisted Development
Conductor should be designed so that AI capabilities can be integrated without changing the underlying project architecture.
AI assistance should operate by reading and modifying the project's canonical JSON definition.
The application shall remain fully functional when AI services are unavailable.
---
## AI Chat
Provide an integrated conversational interface for interacting with a project.
Example requests:
* Build a login page.
* Add a table below the dropdown.
* Connect this button to a REST endpoint.
* Explain what this page does.
* Rename all references to "Environment" as "Target Environment."
* Improve the layout.
* Add validation to required fields.
* Document this application.
The AI should generate proposed project changes rather than modifying the project without user approval.
---
## AI Project Generation
Allow users to create an application from a natural language description.
Example:
> Build a form that accepts a hostname, environment, and owner, then calls a Rapid Infrastructure Automation workflow and displays the results.
The AI should generate:
* Pages
* Components
* Layout
* REST actions
* Bindings
* Default styling
The generated project should immediately open in the Visual Editor for refinement.
---
## AI-Assisted REST Configuration
The AI may assist users by:
* Creating REST action definitions
* Suggesting request bodies
* Generating headers
* Creating authentication configurations
* Mapping API responses to UI components
* Suggesting validation rules
---
## AI Documentation
Generate documentation from an existing project.
Potential outputs include:
* Markdown documentation
* API documentation
* End-user documentation
* Administrator documentation
* Project summaries
---
## AI Refactoring
Allow the AI to improve an existing project.
Examples include:
* Simplifying layouts
* Removing unused components
* Consolidating duplicate REST actions
* Improving naming consistency
* Reorganizing pages
* Suggesting accessibility improvements
---
## AI Validation
The AI may analyze projects for potential issues, including:
* Missing bindings
* Invalid REST configurations
* Unused components
* Circular dependencies
* Missing required inputs
* Security concerns
* Inconsistent naming
---
## AI Explainability
Allow users to ask questions about an existing project.
Examples include:
* What happens when this button is clicked?
* Which components call REST APIs?
* Which workflow launches this action?
* Where is this value used?
* Why is this field disabled?
---
## OpenAPI Integration
Allow users to import an OpenAPI specification and automatically generate:
* REST action definitions
* Forms
* CRUD pages
* Tables
* Documentation
---
## Additional Future Enhancements
* Multi-page applications
* Reusable component libraries
* Themes and styling templates
* Workflow templates
* Project version history
* Git integration
* Team collaboration
* Role-based access control
* Plugin architecture
* Additional authentication providers
* Internationalization
* Accessibility auditing
* Application packaging and deployment
