serodynamics 0.1.0

This is the first CRAN release of serodynamics, a package for Bayesian hierarchical modeling of antibody kinetics from longitudinal serological data. It serves as the upstream companion to the serocalculator package.

Bug fixes

Developer-facing changes

  • Expanded what the Claude Code (@claude) workflow can do:
    • Install the full R toolchain (R, JAGS, pandoc, the apt system libs mirrored from copilot-setup-steps.yml, plus devtools, roxygen2, rmarkdown, lintr, spelling, rcmdcheck) and allow Rscript, R, and R CMD invocations, so requests that need package- maintenance commands (devtools::document(), spelling::spell_check_package(), R CMD check, vignette rebuilds) succeed instead of being patched by hand.
    • Grant issues: write and allow gh issue invocations so Claude can file follow-up issues for work deferred out of the current PR instead of burying it in a comment.
  • Standardized runjags::findjags() casing across test-coverage.yaml and copilot-setup-steps.yml to match the R-CMD-check.yaml form arriving with the 0.1.0 release (#207 advisory).
  • Re-assign reviewers to a PR’s human assignees (filtered via type == "User") when Claude pushes commits during a @claude or Claude Code Review run; if Claude makes no commits, the original reviewer set is restored as before. Detected by comparing the PR’s head SHA before and after the Claude step (#210).
  • Stopped deleting prior Claude review comments at the start of each Claude Code Review run, so reviews posted by @claude review invocations are preserved across subsequent pushes instead of being wiped when the review step fails its bot-actor gate (#217).
  • Hardened the Claude code-review workflow against races and silent failures: serialized concurrent runs per PR, made reviewer restore fail loudly instead of silently dropping reviewers, and cleaned up all stale Claude top-level comments per run (#216).
  • Consolidated OS-specific snapshot variants: removed redundant Linux and Windows snapshot directories (which were identical), keeping only base snapshots and darwin-specific variants for macOS platform differences (#73).
  • Updated Copilot instructions to encourage code decomposition and avoid copy-pasting substantial code chunks.
  • Expanded .github/copilot-instructions.md with additional guidance on evidence-based claims, Quarto markdown/cross-reference conventions, R style practices, and phrase-level line-break formatting for source text.
  • Added R 4.5+ snapshot variants to handle the changed attribute ordering in as_case_data(), ensuring test suite compatibility with R 4.5 and later (#109).
  • Added dev container configuration for persistent, cached development environment that includes R, JAGS, and all dependencies preinstalled, making Copilot Workspace sessions much faster.
  • Added .github/workflows/copilot-setup-steps.yml GitHub Actions workflow to automate environment setup for GitHub Copilot coding agent, preinstalling R, JAGS, and all dependencies.
  • Switched ggmcmc dependency from GitHub dev version to CRAN v1.5.1.2 (#135)
  • vectorized ab() function (#116)
  • Added lintr::undesirable_function_linter() to .lintr.R (#81)
  • Reformatted .lintr as R file (following https://github.com/r-lib/lintr/issues/2844#issuecomment-2776725389) (#81)
  • Set shortcut pipe to be base pipe (#80)
  • Added snapshot test for run_mod()
  • Clarified prep_data() internals using dplyr (#34)
  • Removed “.R” suffix from jags model files to prevent them from getting linted as R files (#34)
  • Added dobson.Rmd minimal vignette (#36)
  • Overall cleaning to get checks working (#28)
  • Added units tests for prep_data(), sim_case_data() (#18)
  • Added various GitHub Actions (#10, #15, #18)
