Feb 1, 2026February 2026 (google/meridian): Delivered three core enhancements to improve model evaluation reliability and maintainability. Refactored Goodness of Fit metrics into a dedicated dataclass with updated import paths, standardizing data structures and simplifying future extensions. Standardized post-convergence quality checks by removing customization and enforcing a hardcoded, reliable QA suite, reducing configuration-related risks. Implemented a health score computation that aggregates multiple quality checks into a single health metric, updated the ReviewSummary accordingly, and prepared constants and logic for consistent health reporting. These changes sharpen decision-making, increase testability, and reduce operational risk across model evaluation workflows.

Jan 1, 2026Month: 2026-01 focused on stabilizing and modernizing the Meridian repository (google/meridian) to accelerate safe feature delivery and improve maintainability. Delivered a major API modernization and architectural refactor across Analyzer, Summarizer, BudgetOptimizer, and Visualizer to unify data access via model_context, streamline core flows, and remove deprecated paths. Completed removal of legacy API surface (Analyzer._meridian, BudgetOptimizer.meridian, and model_equations usage) with associated test and initialization adjustments. Updated tests organization by moving relevant unit tests to context_test, improving clarity and reliability. Updated changelog to document removal of an unmaintained library, added interactive zooming for plots, and fixed plot width issues. Reverted destabilizing Visualizer API changes to restore stability, while expanding quality checks by exposing details as attributes in quality check results. These changes reduce technical debt, lower risk of regressions in future iterations, and enable faster feature delivery.
