+
+## Description
+Maintain and extend the foundational Nim libraries required by IFT teams, delivering portable CPU integer primitives and improved CLI parsing utilities.
+
+## Task List
+
+### Create Standalone CPU Integer Library

+* fully qualified name: `vac:nim:ift:2025q4-nim-core-libs:cpu-integer-library`
+* owner: Esteban
+* status: not started
+* start-date: 2025/11/15
+* end-date: 2025/12/31
+
+#### Description
+- Extract low-level, hardware- and compiler-specific primitives from [`stint/private/primitives`](https://github.com/status-im/nim-stint/tree/master/stint/private/primitives) and turn them into a reusable, standalone library for CPU-sized integers. Model the design after [Rust’s integer intrinsics](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/85532), [`nim-stew` PR #187](https://github.com/status-im/nim-stew/pull/187), and [Constantine’s arithmetic core](https://github.com/mratsim/constantine/tree/master/constantine/math_arbitrary_precision/arithmetic), with clean abstractions, cross-platform support, and a minimal, well-documented API. The resulting library should serve as a foundational building block for bigint and cryptographic libraries like Stint and Constantine.

+description: Nimble development.

+
+`vac:nim:ift:2025q4-nimble`
+
+## Description
+
+This commitment comprises advancing Nimble as a robust replacement for Nimbus build system while enhancing its overall functionality.
+We will focus on three key milestones:
+
+* implementing declarative parsing
+* expanding the feature set
+* establishing a local-by-default approach.
+
+Our primary objective is to streamline the development process by improving IDE integration,
+making Nimble more user-friendly and efficient.
+We'll prioritize these enhancements to bring Nimble closer to its 1.0 release, ensuring it becomes a more powerful and versatile tool for our developers.
+By the end of this quarter, we aim to have made significant progress on these fronts, setting the stage for Nimble to become the go-to package manager in IFT projects.
+
+
