In March 2026, delivered policy and licensing updates across Tycho projects to reduce user confusion and strengthen contract governance. Focused on removing deprecated bounty program documentation and instituting BUSL-1.1 licensing for Tycho Router contracts, with license conversions extended to 2030. These changes align product documentation with current policies and provide clearer legal terms for users, auditors, and contributors. No critical bug fixes were recorded this month; instead, efforts centered on documentation cleanup, legal/licensing compliance, and repository hygiene, setting a foundation for safer adoption and future feature work.

May 2025 — Tycho-simulation (propeller-heads/tycho-simulation): Focused on stabilizing the extractor and preserving simulation throughput while the underlying issue is addressed. A temporary hotfix was applied to remove the curve pool filter from the protocol stream configuration to mitigate extractor errors and keep simulations running.

April 2025 — Focused on reliability and UX improvements for token swaps in propeller-heads/tycho-simulation. Delivered a major feature set around Token Swapping Enhancements and Balance Validation, including a reversed default swap direction (USDC->WETH), pre-swap balance checks, improved console output and streaming behavior after swaps, and a safe default swap amount. Refactored balance displays and swap summaries for clearer UX, added warnings for insufficient balances, and enriched transaction details to reduce user confusion. Implemented a correctness fix to ensure accurate balance checks during swaps. Also shipped lint fixes to improve CI reliability and maintainability. Overall impact: more accurate swaps, clearer feedback, and a stronger foundation for scalable swap features.

March 2025: Propeller Heads Tycho Execution – Key documentation and governance improvements. Delivered new audit report Max_2025-03-04.pdf and updated the March 2025 audit report to ensure accuracy and compliance. No major bugs fixed this month; focus on documentation quality and audit traceability.

February 2025: Delivered enhancements to the tycho-simulation trading tool and completed quickstart simplification to accelerate onboarding. Implemented MEV-protected trading experience with Flashbots Protect, interactive swap execution menus, and a refactored transaction flow for better error handling and reusability, plus clearer display of swap prices and amounts. Simplified quickstart by removing Flashbots RPC integration, cleaning dependencies, and relying on ETH_RPC_URL for submissions, reducing surface area and maintenance overhead. These changes reduce risk, improve user clarity, and accelerate adoption in production workflows.

December 2024 monthly summary for propeller-heads/tycho-indexer: Focused on documentation quality improvements to support onboarding, usage clarity, and long-term maintainability. Delivered README documentation improvements with minimal risk to the codebase. No major bugs fixed this month; emphasis on documentation debt reduction and knowledge transfer.

November 2024: Branding and documentation alignment for Tycho Protocol SDK to improve developer onboarding and ecosystem clarity. The month focused on clarifying the SDK's purpose and aligning branding in the repository, with a primary deliverable around README improvements rather than feature parity changes.
