My assumption is that the proposal is effectively dead and I shouldn't expect it to make its way to becoming a standard (phase 5).
If this assumption is correct then I imagine the rationale is that you can achieve similar functionality for common case with wasi:cli/environment.
What I'm pondering about though is when you want to take advantage of instance reuse and you want to apply non-static configuration data; this is data that should not be applied to all instances uniformly.
On the surface this is where wasi-config seemed like a good fit though I may be missing something.
Joel Dice (Jul 28 2026 at 17:40):Looks like it's in the same state as wasi-keyvalue (and the other wasi-cloud-core proposals beyond wasi-http): https://github.com/WebAssembly/wasi-keyvalue/issues/67, i.e. the original champions have moved on, and it's time to nominate new ones.
