Worked on the mrousavy/swift repository to advance automatic differentiation and compiler reliability using C++ and Swift. Delivered features such as robust handling of loop-local adjoint values, support for custom derivatives on functions marked with @_alwaysEmitIntoClient, and improved differentiation for closures as default arguments. Addressed bugs affecting derivative correctness, including adjoint propagation and visibility issues in fragile functions, while also resolving cross-platform compilation errors by updating C++ headers. Focused on test-driven development, stabilizing the test suite and removing outdated FIXMEs to ensure reliability. The work enhanced gradient accuracy, build stability, and the overall safety of differentiable programming workflows.
