June 2025 – Delivered core platform enhancements across crucible and mir-json with a focus on safety, observability, and maintainability. Implemented a volatile memory access API (volatile_store/volatile_load) with tests, enabling safer low-level memory interactions and more reliable behavior in memory-sensitive code paths. Refactored memory access paths to simplify usage and removed an extraneous extern keyword; clarified volatile read/write naming for maintainability. Enhanced parsing capabilities for source positions/spans, enabling location-based data in models and more robust handling of code spans. Improved JSON model readability with pretty-print formatting and added unsigned/decimal bitvector representations to better explain generated counterexamples. Strengthened developer experience through Haddock formatting, additional type annotations, changelog maintenance, CI script updates, and extensive documentation improvements including tutorials and a local build guide.
