April 2025 monthly summary for aleph-im/pyaleph: Delivered pricing and enforcement enhancements for messaging services. Implemented Messaging Cost Pricing and Balance Enforcement by removing the free tier for storing and processing messages, adding pre-processing balance checks, refactoring the cost calculation logic, and establishing a billing deadline. This work improves cost visibility, enforces responsible usage, and sets the foundation for revenue-aligned messaging features. Work is anchored to commit 32ddc10c3eb1b66d4bb1dfb647d8f083007dd7c2.

November 2024 (aleph-im/pyaleph) — Focused API evolution for the Multichain indexer and alignment around its breaking-change ripple. Implemented a visibility-improving rename of the historical data query parameter from 'accurate' to 'completeHistory' to clarify intent and improve retrieval of historical states. This change enhances API semantics and data accuracy for clients while signaling a migration path due to its breaking nature. Complementary fixes were applied to align internal logic with the new parameter, reducing integration risk for downstream services. Result: clearer API semantics, more reliable historical data access, and improved readiness for client migrations.
