 # NickelEval.jl - Status & TODOs
 
-## Completed
+## Current Version: v0.3.0
 
-### Core Features
-- **Subprocess evaluation** - `nickel_eval`, `nickel_eval_file` via CLI
+## Completed Features
+
+### Core Evaluation
+- **Subprocess evaluation** - `nickel_eval`, `nickel_eval_file`, `nickel_read` via Nickel CLI
 - **FFI native evaluation** - `nickel_eval_native` via Rust binary protocol
-- **Type preservation** - Int64 vs Float64 from Nickel types directly
-- **Typed evaluation** - `nickel_eval(code, T)` for Dict, NamedTuple, etc.
-- **Export functions** - JSON, TOML, YAML via subprocess
-- **Documentation** - VitePress site at https://louloulibs.github.io/NickelEval/
+- **FFI JSON evaluation** - `nickel_eval_ffi` with typed parsing support
+
+### Type System
+- **Primitives**: `Int64`, `Float64`, `Bool`, `String`, `Nothing`
+- **Compounds**: `Vector{Any}`, `Dict{String, Any}`
+- **Enums**: `NickelEnum` with `tag::Symbol` and `arg::Any`
+  - Simple enums: `'Foo` → `NickelEnum(:Foo, nothing)`
+  - With arguments: `'Some 42` → `NickelEnum(:Some, 42)`
+  - Nested enums, arrays of enums, enums in records
+  - Pattern matching support
+  - Pretty printing: `'Some 42`
 
-### Test Coverage
-- 94 tests passing (53 subprocess + 41 FFI)
+### Export Functions
+- `nickel_to_json`, `nickel_to_toml`, `nickel_to_yaml` via subprocess
+
+### Infrastructure
+- Documentation site: https://louloulibs.github.io/NickelEval/dev/
+- 167 tests passing (53 subprocess + 114 FFI)
+- CI: tests + documentation deployment
+- Registry: loulouJL

 Update CI workflow to build Rust library and run FFI tests.

 ## Nice-to-Have
 
-- File watching for config reload
-- Multi-file evaluation with imports
-- NamedTuple output option for records
-- Nickel contracts integration
+- **File watching** - auto-reload config on file change
+- **Multi-file evaluation** - support Nickel imports
+- **NamedTuple output** - optional record → NamedTuple conversion
+- **Nickel contracts** - expose type validation
