RELEASE_NOTES_6.10.0

Release Notes - Moira 6.10.0

Release date: 12 October 2026.

Moira 6.10.0 brings the completed Vedic work through the selected VED-014 Kalachakra profile into an engine release. The Python engine, public facades and REST API expose the same named policies, bounded calculations and source provenance. Sixteen of the 24 registered Vedic packages have reached their selected delivery checkpoints; this release does not claim every tradition.

Vedic calculation and transport

• Daily Panchanga uses local dates, zones and sunrise-owned days, with solved limb endings, repeated/skipped sunrise evidence and unavailable solar states. Bounded lunar-month context is included; festival catalogues remain research.
• Gochar includes the admitted seven-body/natal-Moon snapshot, reader-bound epoch and civil-date composition, and bounded whole-sign windows. The window contract retains retrograde re-entry, Vedha, optional natal BAV, boundary uncertainty and a complete state partition under explicit resource budgets.
• D60 exposes edition-owned deities, Santhanam signs, a modern full-position profile and the explicit classical_derived_linear degree policy. Harmonic defaults remain; classical derivation and modern attribution stay distinct.
• Sayanadi admits the selected BPHS Navamsa-ordinal profile with strict inputs and dated birth composition. Legacy conditional-effect prose retains its separately documented validation limits.
• Chara supports bounded cycles and three named Rangacharya recipes. Argala has separate BPHS, PVR and Rath assessments, with repaired result invariants and explicit source conflicts.
• Yoga extensions add 21 selected source entries, with independent Navamsa readings and bounded BPHS wealth/royal rules. Unresolved aspect-target readings are explicitly excluded.
• Kalachakra admits bphs_santhanam_longitude_row_cycle_v1: nine major-period occurrences, optional full-parent antardashas, exact rational source years, explicit 360/365.25-day projections and bounded active-period lookup. Five REST operations provide discovery, supplied/date-derived sequences and current periods. Competing continuations and disputed gati remain visible.

Muhurta

• Personalized sampled search now uses actual natal inputs, declared clocks, effective ayanamsa and complete applied-policy receipts.
• Seven named window families, Panchanga Shuddhi assessments, selected dosha detectors and source-scoped cancellation rules preserve raw restrictions, evidence and boundary uncertainty.
• Lagna/Navamsa components and optional strength context are available through the same engine and REST policies.
• Source-selected marriage, residential housing/Vastu, ordinary land travel, purchase/sale/first-opening and additional named marriage traditions share strict request contracts and bounded evaluation/search products.
• Marriage searches reuse request-local exact computations and remove redundant work without changing their accuracy or validation thresholds.

Shared repairs and catalog integration

• Polynomial ayanamsas use the IAU 2006 general precession quantity appropriate to the scalar calculation. Historical sidereal results can change.
• Direct-input admission, reader binding, timescale provenance, result-tree integrity and REST error classification have been hardened across the delivered Vedic surfaces. Previously accepted malformed inputs may now fail.
• Packaged small-body manifests and metadata identify external catalog release 2026.10.10.1. The wheel does not contain the external SPK catalog files. Historical scientific receipts remain bound to their original manifests; they are not relabelled to certify the newer catalog bytes.
• Publication candidates and exact-tag documentation artifacts retain distinct provenance, and generated API/wiki checks run before release.

Validation and limits

The release validation receipt records the review, selected tests, resource receipts and publication checks. Individual source and real-kernel acceptance receipts remain linked from the Vedic register. These establish the documented computational scope, not predictive efficacy.

Special Lagnas, additional Gochar corpora/modifiers, deferred Pancha Pakshi doctrines, exceptional lunar-month rules and festival catalogues remain future work. Natal-discovery and light-box work in the development checkout is excluded. Website application deployment is separate from this engine/PyPI release.
