Wickra Proof — C#

Proof-of-Backtest. Turn a (spec, data) pair into a deterministic backtest report and a canonical blake3 hash that anyone can recompute byte-for-byte in ten languages — for C#. dotnet add package Wickra.Proof — prebuilt native library, no system dependencies.

The wickra-proof core for .NET, over the C ABI via P/Invoke. The native library ships inside the NuGet package for every supported runtime identifier, so there is nothing to install alongside it.

Install

dotnet add package Wickra.Proof

The native library ships prebuilt per platform under runtimes/<rid>/native/, selected automatically. There is nothing to compile. Targets .NET 8 and later.

dotnet add package WickraProof

Building from this repository (contributors)

Requires the .NET SDK and a Rust toolchain:

cargo build -p wickra-proof-c --release
dotnet test bindings/csharp

The test project resolves the freshly built native library from target/release.

Quick start

The binding is a thin, faithful surface over the same command boundary every other binding drives, so a request built here produces the same canonical bytes it would in Rust, Python or Go.

using WickraProof;

using var handle = new Prover();
string response = handle.Command("""{"cmd":"version"}""");
Console.WriteLine(response);

Prover owns a native handle and implements IDisposable; the using above is what releases it. Dropping the reference without disposing leaks the handle until the finalizer runs.

What travels with the package

The managed assembly, the native C ABI library for each supported runtime identifier, and both licence texts. The package declares MIT OR Apache-2.0 and carries LICENSE-MIT and LICENSE-APACHE to match.

Benchmark

Every binding forwards to the same data-driven Rust core, so what this one adds is the call overhead of [LibraryImport] P/Invoke over the C ABI, not a different result. The core's throughput is measured by the repository's benchmark suite and the nightly bench.yml run; the numbers, the machine and how to reproduce them are in the repository BENCHMARKS.md.

Documentation

The full guide, the spec reference and the API documentation live in the main repository and the documentation site:

• Repository: https://github.com/wickra-lib/wickra-proof
• Docs (guides, spec reference, cookbook): https://proof.wickra.org
• Runnable example: examples/csharp/

Wickra Proof ships native bindings for Python, Node.js, WASM and Rust, plus a C ABI hub that any C-capable language (C, C++, C#, Go, Java, R) links against — all forwarding to the same data-driven, unsafe-forbidden Rust core.

Disclaimer

wickra-proof is research and engineering tooling, not financial advice. A proof attests only that a given report is the deterministic result of a given spec over given data — it makes no claim about the quality, profitability or future performance of any strategy. Trading carries risk; you are responsible for your own decisions.
