This commit is a routine update of the GitHub Actions checkout tool used by the project's automated testing and release pipelines. It does not change the Rust Bitcoin library code that users install. The new version of the checkout action includes a security hardening feature that blocks risky checkouts of pull requests from forks in certain workflow types, which is a defensive improvement rather than a vulnerability in the project itself.

bd7d8653c2600bf4cff6361823d67c5c6cab994f units: Prevent panic when parsing non-ASCII target and work hex (questfever)
Pull request description:
## Summary
Prevent `Target` and `Work` hex parsing from panicking on certain non-ASCII UTF-8 inputs.
Add a regression test verifying that invalid non-ASCII hex input is returned as an error.
## Details
The U256 hex parser uses `str::len()`, which returns the UTF-8 byte length, to calculate the boundary between its high and low halves:
```rust let high_len = s.len() - 32; let high_s = &s[..high_len]; let low_s = &s[high_len..]; ```
For an input such as:
`é0000000000000000000000000000000`
the string contains 32 characters but 33 bytes. This makes `high_len == 1`, which falls inside the two-byte UTF-8 encoding of `é`.
Slicing the string at that offset therefore panics.
This path is reachable through the public `Target::{from_hex, from_unprefixed_hex}` and `Work::{from_hex, from_unprefixed_hex}` APIs. Invalid hexadecimal input should produce an error rather than panic.
The parser now rejects non-ASCII input before splitting the string.
## Testing
- Added a regression test for the non-ASCII input above. - Ran cargo test -p bitcoin-units --all-features.

This commit fixes a bug where certain unusual text inputs containing non-ASCII characters (like 'é') could crash the program when parsing Bitcoin 'Target' or 'Work' values from hexadecimal strings. The code was measuring string length in bytes instead of characters, so it could slice through the middle of a multi-byte character and panic. The fix rejects non-ASCII input before doing any byte-based slicing, turning a crash into a normal error.

This change is a routine cleanup of the library's public API. It removes two items (BlockHashDecoder and BlockHashDecoderError) that were accidentally re-exported from the wrong module. The actual decoder and error type still exist in the correct block module, so no functionality is removed. There is no security issue here.

api: remove api snapshot files
The api CI task now diffs the generated API against the base branch, so the committed snapshots no longer serve as the check. They only produce rebase churn on every api change, so drop them and ignore the generated location.
contrib/api.sh now points at the generated path and tells the user how to produce the files when they are missing.
API snapshot was a prerequisite of Check Re-exports job, so they must be regenerated now. Each re-exports script implements an api snapshot generation for robustness.

second-pass: unusually broad change
AI analysis · Informational 15/100
This commit removes large, automatically-generated API snapshot text files from the rust-bitcoin repository. The snapshots were used to detect accidental changes to the public API, but they caused unnecessary merge conflicts. The project now generates these snapshots on demand during CI instead of storing them in git. This is a repository maintenance and CI workflow change, not a code behavior change, and it has no direct security impact on users of the library.

This commit is a documentation-only cleanup. It turns plain backtick-quoted type names (like `BlockHash`) into clickable Rust doc links (like [`BlockHash`]) and updates references to renamed encoding traits (e.g., `Encodable`/`Decodable` to `Encode`/`Decode`) in comments. No executable code logic was changed.

primitives: Replace instances of old encoding trait names
In various places in the documentation and code comments, the old encoding trait names of Encodable/Decodable are still used. While adding in links, these can be changed to match the new names of Encode and Decode.
Replace all instances of Encodable and Decodable with Encode/Decode and add links to public doc instances of the new trait names.

Pull request description:
Currently, the entire primitives::script module is gated on the alloc feature. The ScriptHash and WScriptHash types as they are don't strictly require an allocator, and would permit most of the addresses crate to be no-alloc if they were available without the alloc feature.
Remove alloc feature gating for ScriptHash and WScriptHash by enabling a small script module with only them if the alloc feature is disabled.

This commit is a routine feature-gating refactor. It makes two small hash types (ScriptHash and WScriptHash) available even when the library is compiled without an allocator. It does not change how those types behave, does not fix a bug, and does not alter any security-sensitive logic.
From the doc findings in https://github.com/rust-bitcoin/rust-bitcoin/pull/6651, there are only a handful (like, 2.5) of collection-based types in `consensus_encoding` which are tied to the higher level consensus codec `Encode`/`Decode` traits. These two patches expose the internals of the lower-level `Encoder`/`Decoder` traits which is a nice to have in rust-psbt where simple wrappers could then be defined for `PsbtEncode`/`PsbtDecode`.
## Encoding
I first tried to make some sort of `SliceEncoderWith` type following the pattern on the decoding-side, but this gets hairy due to the lifetimes present on the encoding-side. So I turned to `push_decode` and saw how Kixunil used an [iterator pattern there](https://github.com/Kixunil/push_decode/blob/master/src/encoders/iter.rs). I copied that over with a few tweaks and updated `SliceEncoder` to delegate to it.
One question I have here is that the new `IterEncoder` type defensively fuses the input iterator `let mut iter = iter.into_iter().fuse();`. I figure this is best practice, but it is useless for the existing `SliceEncoder` and there might be a performance hit?
The biggest change from `push_decode` is dropping the `I::Item: Into<E>, E: Encoder` bound and instead have an explicit type mapping, `Encoders`, for the type glue. This isn't a huge deal since not exposed to the caller, but it is what connects the `IterEncoder` logic to the existing `SliceEncoder`. But here are the details.
The little wrapper class in action:
```rust IterEncoder::new(Encoders::new(txs)) ```
vs. potentially the `Into` approach with a turbofish:
I think to avoid having to add some `From` impl manually to every existing encodable type, we would want some sort of blanket impl. As far as I can tell, the type system can't handle this because of the orphan rule. `From` is external *and* `<T as Encode>::Encoder<'e>` is uncovered, external. We could add a new trait, but that would have the same issues outside of `consensus_encoding`. Maybe I am missing a better pattern for this though.
The decoding side is simpler on paper since there are no lifetimes to worry about, but I ended up exposing two new types for necessary flexibility: `VecDecoderWith` and `ExactVecDecoderWith`. While the API expands, these all delegate to each other so I don't think a large maintenance burden.
I maintained the use of a `Default` bound like we have on our existing `Decoder` drivers. Recently convinced myself that this is fine: https://github.com/rust-bitcoin/rust-bitcoin/issues/6674.

This commit is a routine library refactor: it exposes lower-level building blocks for encoding and decoding lists of Bitcoin data, and rewrites existing list encoders/decoders to use those new building blocks. There is no direct security fix or vulnerability being patched. It is an API expansion and internal cleanup in the consensus_encoding crate.

This is a routine update to a GitHub Actions workflow that bumps the version of a helper tool called cargo-binstall from 1.19.1 to 1.20.0. The tool is only used during automated version-compatibility checks in CI and is not part of the actual rust-bitcoin library that users install. There is no indication this update fixes or introduces a security problem in the project itself.

This commit only updates an internal test file (primitives/tests/api.rs) that checks whether public types implement expected Rust traits and are exported correctly. It adds coverage for new types introduced in earlier development and reorganizes some existing tests. There is no change to production code, no bug fix, and no security-relevant behavior.

This commit is a code cleanup that rewrites how error values are constructed in the Rust Bitcoin library. It changes nested constructor calls like Err(OuterError(InnerError { ... })) into a flatter style using map_err. There is no functional change to how amounts, locktimes, or hex parsing behave, and no security bug is introduced or fixed.

The Weight type uses from_vb* as the pattern for constructors, but to_vbytes_* for conversion. FeeRate is consistent with to/from_vb*. Before we go to 1.0, Weight's conversion functions should be renamed to keep everything consistent.

This is a routine API cleanup in a Rust Bitcoin library. It adds new method names (to_vb_floor, to_vb_ceil) for converting transaction 'weight' to 'virtual bytes' and marks the old names (to_vbytes_floor, to_vbytes_ceil) as deprecated. The actual math is unchanged, and existing callers are updated to use the new names. There is no security bug or fix here.

This commit removes two Rust compiler hints (`#[track_caller]`) from helper functions that simply return a value or call a user-provided fallback. These functions never panic, so the hints were unnecessary and had no security effect. The change is a minor code cleanup with no functional or security impact.

8867fe2e37f3fcd9e60a763c5e6911445ccdd13e units: reword docs to block count in relative locktime (satsfy (Renato Britto))
Pull request description:
This is a philosophical PR based on [this comment](https://github.com/rust-bitcoin/rust-bitcoin/issues/3632#issuecomment-5160990873). It rewrites the remaining spots that mention relative locktime docs to say block count instead of block height, because a relative lock counts blocks elapsed since the UTXO was confirmed, it is not a chain height.
The goal is to make locktime usage crystal clear to the user. The wording choice regarding lock times is unfortunate.

This commit only changes documentation comments and variable names in the rust-bitcoin library. It rewords references to 'block height' as 'block count' for relative locktime, because a relative locktime measures elapsed blocks since a coin was created, not an absolute position in the blockchain. No code behavior changed, so there is no security impact.
The labeller runs in a separate workflow for security reasons, but this forces the `download-artifact` action to need an explicit token.

Pull request description:
At present, base58 has only encoding functionality in no-alloc builds. In order to allow decoding of known size data from base58 without an allocator, the base58 crate needs a decoder function like hex's decode_to_array. Such a function has more failure modes than the alloc decode_check function, so new error types are required also.
- Patch 1 splits the existing decode function into a private build_base256 function that writes to a provided scratch buffer. - Patch 1 introduces decode_check_to_array function for decoding short (<128 char) base58 strings to byte arrays, and associated error types. - Patch 2 adds tests to cover the new function. - Patch 3 renames Error to DecodeCheckError, retaining a deprecated type alias.

This commit is a routine feature addition to the rust-bitcoin base58 crate. It adds a new no-allocator function to decode short base58-check strings into fixed-size byte arrays, and renames the existing error type while keeping a deprecated alias for backward compatibility. The changes are mostly refactoring and API expansion; there is no direct evidence of a security vulnerability being fixed.

Merge rust-bitcoin/rust-bitcoin#6646: hashes: add several methods to `Midstate` and release 1.2.0

Pull request description:
Adds a new `Midstate::SHA256_IV` constant which allows you to construct a midstate equivalent to a new empty sha256 engine. Then adds `update` methods to `Midstate` which allow you to "ratchet forward" arbitrary midstates, 64 bytes at a time, by hashing the data. There is one fast method and two slow constfn methods.
The motivation is that in Elements we have many Merkle roots which are computed using sha256 midstates, which is safe to do because we're using domain-separated hashes and because our internal nodes are always hashes of exactly 64 bytes of data, which do not not need any length-suffixing. In rust-simplicity we have several such Merkle root types, many of which have a huge pile of precomputed constants, but whose constructors are forced to be non-`const`, which limits their use in generic contexts.
It's maybe a bit uncouth for me to just add some methods I need and cut a new release in a 1.x crate, but
* we have taken great pains to keep `hashes` out of other crates' public APIs, so its stability is not as paramount as it would be for encoding or units, say * all the new methods (and one constant) are on the `Midstate` type, which is a "don't touch this unless you are a cryptographer" part of the API and already has some ugly methods * the additions seem pretty reasonable to me, assuming you accept that we have a `Midstate` type at all; essentially they generalize the already-existing `hash_tag` method * I am BDFL of this project

This commit is a routine feature release for the bitcoin_hashes crate. It adds new public methods and a constant to the SHA-256 Midstate type so developers can compute SHA-256 midstates in const contexts. There is no indication of a security bug, fix, or vulnerability. The change expands the public API surface slightly, which is normal for a library release.
