Changes in version 0.2.8 (2026-02-20)                  

Highlights

  - Adds support for SATE/SACDE estimand recovery
  - Consolidates documentation
  - Supports weight diagnostics
  - Bug fixes

                 Changes in version 0.2.7 (2025-11-11)

  - Fixed broken link in vignette for CRAN resubmission

This is the CRAN version.

                        Changes in version 0.2.6                        

Highlights

  - Supports multiple exposures
  - Detects DAG conditions like M-Bias and Butterfly Bias
  - Added neutral control (on treatment and outcome) and descendant of
    confounder on/off back-door path roles
  - Enabled console LaTeX / markdown output
  - Updated export functions to support new expanded roles table, and
    added legend to define abbreviations

    column options

                        Changes in version 0.2.5                        

Highlights

  - Added dotwhisker output functionality
  - Added support for individually generating and exporting roles and
    comparison tables
  - Added bivariate specification to comparison table by default
  - Significantly enhanced vignette, article, and roxygen documentation

                 Changes in version 0.2.4 (2025-09-21)                  

Highlights:

  - Removed compare_specs() and print.compare_specs(), which were unused
    and causing issues.
  - Updated DESCRIPTION to reference dagitty and relevant article under
    methods.

                        Changes in version 0.2.3                        

Highlights:

  - Fixed imply logic. Previously, for the roles table, imply = FALSE
    would only display RHS variables, but still assessed all DAG-based
    relationships.
  - Renamed desc(Y) IO, for intermediate outcome
  - Dropped desc(X) as a roles column
  - Added dMed (descendant of mediator) and dCol (descendant of
    collider)
  - Updated documentation and added vignettes

                        Changes in version 0.2.2                        

Highlights:

  - Built pkgdown site and several supporting vignettes.
  - Significantly enhanced package documentation in preparation for CRAN
    release.
  - Trimmed exported functions.
  - Enhanced and documented engine compatibility.
  - Added omit_factors and omit_intercept parameters.
  - Reworked imply parameter so it restricts evaluation to variables
    listed in RHS.
  - Fixed cluster argument bug.

                        Changes in version 0.2.1                        

Added

  - variable labels across roles + model tables (LaTeX, .docx, .xlsx,
    .txt).
  - unevaluated regressors note: list RHS terms not in the DAG, shown in
    all outputs.
  - LaTeX + Word + Excel + Text:
      - keep factor dummies and fixed effects by default.
      - better longtblr conversion/spacing; improved dynamic column
        width weighting and line breaking for long labels.
      - auto-escape labels for neat output.
      - cleaner summaries and label support.

Changed

  - consolidated helpers (assist_helpers.R + export_helpers.R).
      - improved handling of nuisance vars (FEs/tails).
      - significantly improved documentation to prep for CRAN release.
      - broader validation against real replication data.

                        Changes in version 0.2.0                        

Breaking changes

  - Renamed the main entry point from dag_assist() to DAGassist().

Added

  - Acyclicity checks and clearer validation messages in validate.R.
  - Canonical adjustment sets alongside minimal sets.
  - Support for multiple minimal adjustment sets.
  - Export to LaTeX, Word (.docx), Excel (.xlsx), and plain text (.txt).
  - export_report() helper to produce a publication-grade, half-page
    robustness report from a single call.
  - New imply parameter to control DAG-implied covariate additions

Changed

  - Console report redesigned with compact, readable tables
  - Nicer console styling with color

Notes

  - Fixed-effects / IV parts of formulas (e.g., | region + time) are
    preserved; validation looks only at the pre-| part.
