## Historique du projet et usages

CaDiCaL is Armin Biere's clean, efficient CDCL SAT solver, packaged as both a command-line solver and libcadical.a. Its project goal is to stay understandable and easy to modify while remaining competitive with state-of-the-art solvers.

### Historique du projet

The official FMV page presents CaDiCaL as a simplified satisfiability solver and records competition-oriented releases for SAT Competition 2017, SAT Competition 2018, SAT Race 2019, and SAT Competition 2020. The GitHub README explains that CaDiCaL aimed to be cleaner than prior solvers such as Lingeling while remaining fast.

CaDiCaL became a research and engineering platform as well as a solver binary. The README points to a C++ API header, test documentation, NEWS beginning with release 1.5.1, and a CaDiCaL 2.0 tool paper published at CAV 2024.

### Historique d'adoption

Within the SAT community, CaDiCaL's adoption is tied to solver competitions and formal-methods tooling. The FMV page notes first place in the SAT track of SAT Race 2019 and second overall, and the Homebrew input shows packaging in Homebrew, Debian, Fedora, Nix, Ubuntu, and related Linux distributions.

### Modes d'utilisation

The command-line interface accepts DIMACS CNF input and an optional proof output path as cadical [ dimacs [ proof ] ]. Developers can also link against libcadical.a through the C++ API for embedding SAT solving in verification, synthesis, model checking, and solver research tools.

### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

CaDiCaL is significant because SAT solvers are tiny-looking packages with deep performance consequences. A package update can affect formal verification, theorem proving, fuzzing, dependency solving, and academic benchmark results, so maintainers care about exact versions, compiler flags, proof support, and reproducibility.

### Chronologie

- 2017: CaDiCaL source is submitted to SAT Competition 2017.
- 2018: A SAT Competition 2018 version is published.
- 2019: CaDiCaL wins first place in the SAT track of SAT Race 2019 and second overall.
- 2020: FMV publishes the SAT Competition 2020 source archive.
- 2024: CaDiCaL 2.0 tool paper appears at CAV 2024.
- 2025: GitHub releases list CaDiCaL 3.0.0.

### Related projects

- Related solvers and libraries include Lingeling, Kissat, MiniSAT-family solvers, IPASIR-compatible SAT integrations, and competition benchmark suites from SAT Race and SAT Competition.
