Gamze Kilic contributed to the input-output-hk/mithril repository by modernizing cryptographic protocol modules and enhancing code maintainability over seven months. She refactored core Rust modules to introduce multi-signature and aggregate signature capabilities, improved error handling for edge cases, and stabilized batch verification tests through careful parameter tuning. Her work included API alignment between mithril-stm and mithril-common, rigorous test coverage with golden tests, and serialization validation for BLS components. By focusing on modular design, dependency management, and release readiness, Gamze ensured safer migrations and more reliable cryptographic workflows, leveraging Rust, TOML, and JSON to support scalable, secure multi-party verification systems.

Jul 1, 2025

July 2025: API modernization and testing enhancements for Mithril. Implemented mithril-stm API modernization and deprecation, aligning types and function names with mithril-common; updated docs, changelog, and crates versioning to guide clients through upgrade and ensure compatibility. Added golden tests and serialization validation for parameters and BLS components (verification keys, PoP, multisignature) with corrected imports to ensure test modules compile and pass. Strengthened test infrastructure and release readiness through import-path fixes and improved test initializers. Overall impact: clearer upgrade paths, safer migrations, and stronger cryptography test coverage, driving reliability for downstream wallets and services relying on Mithril.
