Jan 1, 2026January 2026 performance highlights for wireapp/core-crypto: delivered substantial Keystore API modernization and cleanup (migrating to new entity traits, removing old macros, and updating wasm migrations), streamlined MLS group management via direct keystore loading, and expanded search capabilities through new SearchableEntity implementations across PersistedMlsGroup and credentials with accompanying tests. Addressed critical bugs (hex-encoded keys scoped to SQLite) and rebasing-related conflicts, plus replaced brittle keystore tests. Result is a more secure, maintainable, and scalable keystore subsystem with improved searchability and performance. Also advanced build/tooling quality via tooling upgrades and CI improvements, setting a stronger foundation for future resilience and developer productivity.

Mar 1, 2025March 2025 (2025-03) focused on delivering a robust, cross-language EpochObserver capability, architectural cleanups, and reliability improvements that drive business value and reduce maintenance risk. Key deliverables include introducing the EpochObserver trait with external registration, deprecating the old has_epoch_changed path, relaxing Debug constraints, and enabling epoch observation across Uniffi, WASM, and Kotlin, with tests validating correctness. Parallel architecture work unified core modules and Crypto context: consolidating CoreCryptoContext and epoch_observer implementations, standardizing set/get data, random_bytes, and proteus implementations, and consolidating modules into a single, extensible core. A targeted refactor moved clear_pending_proposal and clear_pending_commit from CentralContext to ConversationGuard to improve separation of concerns and reduce coupling. Interop and API reliability were strengthened through WASM/FFI compatibility fixes, enhanced Proteus error handling, and API surface cleanup removing certain constructors. Additional improvements include TS epoch observer API (registerEpochObserver) with tests and improved logging around observer failures for better observability. Overall impact: more reliable epoch-change signaling, cross-language interoperability, and a cleaner, more maintainable codebase enabling faster feature delivery and lower operational risk.

Nov 1, 2024November 2024 performance summary for wireapp/core-crypto: Delivered Release 1.1.0, advanced interop with a modern transaction interface across core modules, implemented Rust helper and relaxed Debug bound on CoreCryptoCommand, added a helper to extract data from within a transaction, completed extensive build system overhauls including pre-commit, dropped the i686-linux-android target, and added a build-metadata API with tests in TypeScript and Kotlin. Refactored error handling across WASM and non-WASM to use Option<u16> and clarified WrongEpoch, improved Kotlin/JVM build/tests stability, and enhanced MLS-related readability and ergonomics (byte literals, simpler get_conversation API, and internal error types). Minor fixes to Kotlin test naming and WASM test alignment to improve CI reliability. Collectively these changes reduce maintenance risk and accelerate cross-language feature delivery while improving runtime safety and developer experience.
