convert_gdx() could not be called without explicitly passing region_mappings and time_mappings. Both defaults referred to the parameters themselves rather than to the package data, so any other call failed with “promise already under evaluation”. The documented example could not run.
witch_query() failed for any add_year other than "t30": a malformed if (!is.null) test (missing its argument) raised “invalid argument type”.
witch_translate_data() could not generate its GAMS include files. witch_write_gams() ignored the time mapping it was given and read an undefined time_id instead, erroring after writing part of the output.
premise_region_mapping() ignored its n argument and always grouped by the witch17 column, so any other mapping failed with “group length is 0”.
guess_scenario() returned the whole path as the scenario name when given Windows-style paths on Linux or macOS, where \ is not a path separator.
witch_scen_name() and guess_scenario() treated ".gdx" as a regular expression, stripping the first four-character run ending in gdx anywhere in the name instead of the extension.
witch_results_files(normalize = TRUE) resolved file names against the working directory rather than search_path, so it warned and returned un-normalized names whenever the two differed.
archive_store() could not overwrite an existing archive on macOS or Windows: the pre-copy delete targeted the wrong path, so fs::file_copy() failed with EEXIST.
Other changes
Loading the package no longer overrides witchtools.* options that the user has already set.
remotes moved from Imports to Suggests; it is only needed to install gdxtools from GitHub and was already installed on demand.
Removed the unused internal paleiee() palette helper, which referenced a witch_regions dataset that does not exist and could not run.
