DAGassist v0.2.8

Highlights

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

DAGassist v0.2.7

Highlights

• Fixed broken link in vignette for CRAN resubmission

This is the CRAN version.

DAGassist v0.2.6

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
• Added Canonical -neutral control (on treatment/outcome) comparison column options

DAGassist 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

DAGassist 0.2.4

Highlights:

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

DAGassist 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

DAGassist 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.

DAGassist 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.

DAGassist 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.
