Bottom to top: each layer exists to make the one below it usable. One sentence, one analogy, and an honest maturity badge each.
Kaspa Script + Covenants++
productionRules built into the money itself. A covenant is a lock on coins that says exactly how they are allowed to move next — and the chain refuses any spend that breaks the rule.
The vault door: the combination logic is machined into the door itself, not written on a sign next to it.

pre-auditA language for writing rules the chain itself enforces — without wiring the raw script by hand. You describe the allowed state changes; the compiler produces the covenant.
Writing the combination logic for the vault door — without machining the door yourself.

experimentalAn app framework one level up: instead of one contract, you write actors — separate covenants that talk to each other — and Argent compiles the whole app down through Silverscript.
Many vault doors that work together: each actor is a door, and Argent wires the corridors between them.

productionTokens built as covenants, so supply and transfer rules are checked by Kaspa consensus itself — no off-chain bookkeeper has to be trusted. Live and traded on mainnet; the written standard is still being consolidated.
Tokens whose rulebook is machined into the vault door — nobody outside the chain keeps the score.

roadmapThe roadmap idea of programs that live natively inside Kaspa's DAG rather than being encoded as covenant scripts. Research territory: nothing to build with yet.
Blueprints on the drawing board for a smarter vault — worth knowing about, not something you can rent space in.
