- minorv2.1.0
Replay Proof ships an Ed25519-signed envelope sidecar.
- addedReplay Proof
.mxreplay.signedenvelopes — every.mxreplayexport now writes a sibling.mxreplay.signedfile with a real Ed25519 asymmetric signature (BouncyCastleEd25519Signer) over the canonical replay certificate plus envelope metadata (algorithm, canonicalization ID, key ID, public key, signature, signed timestamp, signer name). The public key is embedded in the envelope so any third party can verify without ModelxcelPro installed. - addedPer-user Ed25519 keypair generated on first launch. Private key sealed with DPAPI
CurrentUserat%APPDATA%\\ModelxcelPro\\keys\\; public key embedded in every envelope you sign. Public-key trust, organizational identity binding, and revocation are the future enterprise layer — what ships today is honest cryptographic integrity for the artifact. - addedStandalone Node verifier shipped in the repo at
tools/verify-replay/verify-replay.js— zero npm dependencies, uses Node’s stdlib crypto. Rejects duplicate top-level keys, checks algorithm/canonicalization/version, recomputeskeyId = SHA-256(publicKey)[0:16], reconstructs the signed payload bytes per the canonicalization spec, and verifies the Ed25519 signature against the embedded public key. A committed sample round-trips end to end:node tools/verify-replay/verify-replay.js sample.mxreplay.signedprintsverified: true.
- addedReplay Proof
- majorv2.0.0.0
Initial public preview — Proof, Compare, and Visualize land together.
- addedProof system: Bind Source, Bind Vector, Sign Cell, Sign Block, Verify Workbook, Verify Ledger, Proof Coverage, Replay Proof, Export Proof Certificate. The Causality engine lives in workbook custom XML; SHA-256 source pinning + canonical-record attestations chained into an append-only hash ledger; Replay Proof emits a SHA-256 self-hashed certificate anchored to the ledger head.
- addedMaterial Change Intelligence in Compare to Previous Version — knows why outputs moved between versions, not just what changed.
- addedRisk Heatmap with three view modes (Risk, Structure, Audit), all-sheets analysis, and an interactive legend panel. Ctrl+Shift+R.
- addedTrustLens formula workbench (Ctrl+Shift+I) with cross-sheet precedent / dependent traversal.
- addedSmart Format intelligence layer — reads the financial meaning of each cell and applies the right notation.
CODreads as a date,DSCRas a ratio,WACCand fees as percentages, "exchange rate" as a factor (0.0000) rather than a percentage. A large financial-model vocabulary covers Date, Percent, Ratio, and Factor cues across IB, PE, project finance, and corporate finance language. Three operating modes: Format Selection (Ctrl+Shift+J), Format Sheet (Ctrl+Shift+Q), and Auto Format toggle (Ctrl+Shift+X). Direct-apply shortcuts (Alt+Shift + N / P / D / F / R) let you override the classifier when you already know the answer, and Alt+Shift+H stamps a Section Header. - addedAutoFormat (format-as-you-type) watches eligible edits and batches them into one formatting pass — no flicker, no fighting your typing. Numeric and formula edits get the same Smart Formatting engine in the background; ordinary text constants stay out of the way. Helpful, not dictatorial.
- addedThemes and Flag Pattern Detection — nine built-in themes (Default · Ruby · Desert · Modern · Emerald · Amethyst · Boardroom Graphite · Covenant Slate · Ocean) plus a custom designer for colors, borders, and number formats, with live preview and per-workbook persistence. Flag Pattern Detection recognises through-date, after-date, between-date, and non-consecutive toggle patterns — lonely 0/1 cells stay as numbers. Empty References Highlighter remains a focused review surface for blank cells that formulas read.
- addedAudit Trail (Verified / Questionable / Erroneous) with persistent
.mxauditJSON sidecar and a per-cell highlight toggle. - addedCloud-aware path resolution — OneDrive and SharePoint URLs are handled transparently using Excel\'s native credentials. No OAuth / Microsoft Graph setup.
- previewv0.1.0
Marketing site M2 ships.
- addedNew product-first homepage, /security moat page, /pricing, six feature pages, four solution pages, the product comparison guide, install guide, and a working waitlist signup.
- addedBrand identity refresh — Lufga ExtraBold display + Inter UI + JetBrains Mono accents. Federal Blue + Maya Blue palette evolves the existing brand for an engineered-precision aesthetic.
- addedLegal stubs (Terms, Privacy, EULA, DPA) under /legal — pre-launch drafts under counsel review; final versions ship before paid commerce.
- changedHomepage CTA copy switched from Start free trial to Join the waitlist for the phased launch period; M3 swaps it back when commerce ships.
