March 2026: Liquorice Protocol integration into Tycho Simulation Framework to enable multi-protocol experimentation; internal LiquoriceState return type simplified by removing a generic and streamlining error handling. Also resolved compilation issues to stabilize builds and completed the feature-branch merge to enable CI/testing coverage. The work broadens simulation capabilities, improves maintainability, and accelerates multi-protocol research workflows.

Delivered the Settlement Notification System for External Liquidity Providers in cowprotocol/services, enabling proactive notifications of upcoming settlements prior to on-chain submission. This supports earlier risk management and hedging, enabling better pricing for liquidity providers and users. The feature is implemented as a driver-level notifier (commit 8d03321f8075c2e930b489cdce9c6da2294f9d8f) under PR #3451. No major bugs reported this month; groundwork laid for broader LP integration and reliability improvements.

September 2025 — Delivered targeted enhancements to end-to-end test configurability for cowprotocol/services, enabling dynamic driver config overrides and easier test coverage management. These changes improve test reliability and reduce test maintenance by enabling per-run config tweaks.
