## [Unreleased]

## [0.1.0] - 2026-09-22

First published release. The `0.1.1` and `0.1.2` entries that previously appeared here
described in-repo iterations that were never published, so their contents are folded in.

### Added
* Expose `IvcVerifier::vk`, `IvcVerifier::params_verifier` and `IvcInstance::acc`, so an IVC chain can be finalised from outside the crate
* Multi-circuit proof aggregation module and example [#311]https://github.com/midnightntwrk/midnight-zk/pull/311
* Add `IvcError::InvalidWitness` variant [#311]https://github.com/midnightntwrk/midnight-zk/pull/311
* Add `assign_without_subgroup_check` to `SelfEmulation` trait [#284]https://github.com/midnightntwrk/midnight-zk/pull/284
* Missing load of native_chip and poseidon (although they were not necessary) [#90]https://github.com/midnightntwrk/midnight-zk/pull/90

### Changed
* Adapt to new `ZkStdLib` curve accessors [#335]https://github.com/midnightntwrk/midnight-zk/pull/335
* `IvcCircuit`'s `Relation::Error` is now `IvcError` instead of `plonk::Error` [#311]https://github.com/midnightntwrk/midnight-zk/pull/311
* `IvcVerifier` is now generic over `T: Ivc` and stores the context internally; `verify` no longer takes a `ctx` parameter [#302]https://github.com/midnightntwrk/midnight-zk/pull/302
* Introduce `IvcIO` trait and `Ivc` convenience trait [#264]https://github.com/midnightntwrk/midnight-zk/pull/264
* Proof aggregation example [#258]https://github.com/midnightntwrk/midnight-zk/pull/258
* Introduce `IvcContext` [#258]https://github.com/midnightntwrk/midnight-zk/pull/258
* IVC module [#227]https://github.com/midnightntwrk/midnight-zk/pull/227
* Rebase to new `zk_stdlib/` outside of `circuits/` [#155]https://github.com/midnightntwrk/midnight-zk/pull/155
* Rebase to new `circuits/` [#120]https://github.com/midnightntwrk/midnight-zk/pull/120
* Rebase to new `circuits/` with `sha512` [#96]https://github.com/midnightntwrk/midnight-zk/pull/96
* truncated_challenges feature to allow --all-features compilation [#146]https://github.com/midnightntwrk/midnight-zk/pull/146
* Rebase to new `circuits/` with `keccak` and `blake2b` [#135]https://github.com/midnightntwrk/midnight-zk/pull/135
* Remove `is_genesis` from `IvcState` trait; genesis detection is now derived generically from `format_public_input` [#272]https://github.com/midnightntwrk/midnight-zk/pull/272
* Rename `proof_aggregation` example to `single_circuit_aggregation` [#264]https://github.com/midnightntwrk/midnight-zk/pull/264

* Decouple `IvcTransition` from `IvcIO` [#264]https://github.com/midnightntwrk/midnight-zk/pull/264
