In May 2025, Ryan Chirco enhanced the debugging infrastructure for the EMPHATICSoft/emphaticsoft repository, focusing on the alignment and track reconstruction modules. He refactored C++ code to replace std::cout statements with mf::LogDebug, improving observability and enabling more efficient debugging across critical data processing paths. By introducing configuration toggles such as SevenOn in SingleTrackAlignment.fcl, Ryan facilitated targeted debugging scenarios, making it easier to diagnose issues. His work emphasized code refactoring and debugging best practices, resulting in clearer logging workflows. These improvements increased maintainability and reduced onboarding time for new developers working with alignment and track reconstruction in C++.
