Release notes

antennaknobs ships as two packages, each with its own version and release notes:

• antennaknobs releases — the designs, engines, CLI, and web workbench. This is the version shown by the hosted simulator.
• momwire releases — the in-house MoM engine (basis functions, ground models, accelerated solvers). Solver-level capabilities — a new ground model, a faster assembly path — land here first.

Notes are generated from the pull requests that went into each release, with a full-changelog diff link between tags, so every entry traces back to the code and discussion behind it.

What a release means for the hosted simulator

The live simulator and this documentation site deploy from release tags, not from every merge: cutting an antennaknobs release publishes the package to PyPI and deploys the same tagged commit to the hosted app and docs. The version number therefore always names exactly what is running — if the release notes say a solver capability landed in the current version, the hosted simulator has it.

How the two versions relate

Each antennaknobs release pins an exact momwire version — the engine release it was tested and deployed against. A pip install antennaknobs installs that engine automatically, so the pair you run locally is the pair running on the hosted simulator. (Earlier releases declared a minimum version instead; the exact pin replaced it so a new engine release can’t silently change solver behavior under an already-published antennaknobs.)
