April 2025 monthly summary for ecmwf/anemoi-core: Focused on maintainability and interface simplification of the Inference module. Delivered a rollback of the previous kcrps-related fix, removing the AnemoiEnsModelInterface and its configurations. This cleanup reduces interface surface area, lowers future maintenance risk, and clarifies model integration paths for downstream consumers. The change is recorded in commit 491eaa6d49270a3761cba472e6de3237089e940a (fix: Revert "fix: Fix inference with kcrps" (#280)). Overall, the work improves stability, speeds onboarding, and sets a clearer path for future enhancements.

March 2025 (2025-03) – ecmwf/anemoi-core: Delivered a key feature to improve trajectory identification by renaming model_run_ids to trajectory_ids across the codebase, aligning data indexing with forecast trajectories and improving interpolation workflows. No major bugs fixed this month in this repository; primary focus was clarity and maintainability, setting the stage for more robust trajectory processing.

Month: 2024-10 — ecmwf/anemoi-core. Key deliverable: Contributors documentation standardization and guideline improvements. Implemented a centralized, readable contributor docs pathway by introducing CONTRIBUTORS.md, standardizing the filename, and correcting formatting and links for accuracy.
