Month: 2026-03 — Summary focused on reducing onboarding friction and increasing deployment reliability for cross-contract promise workflows in nearcore. Implemented immediate deployment of promise function calls with exactly 1 yoctoNEAR, even when the caller has zero balance, guarded by ProtocolFeature::OneYoctoNearOnPromise (stable protocol version 85). This enables deterministic account IDs to call functions that require a 1 yoctoNEAR deposit at deployment, without prior funding, while preserving security and preventing abuse. Implemented via a targeted change to promise_batch_action_function_call_weight. Included unit tests for VM logic (feature enabled/disabled) and a transaction validation test to ensure function call access keys remain unaffected. The feature landed directly on stable to minimize risk. Co-authored by: Claude Opus 4.6.

Concise monthly summary for 2025-08 focused on improving developer-facing documentation to reflect current integration of Wormhole with Chain Signatures across Solana, Base, and Arbitrum. Updated the omnibridge overview and roadmap docs to reflect the latest integration status. These changes enhance onboarding, reduce architectural ambiguity, and align with the product roadmap. All changes are tracked for traceability in version control.
