+  - compute_dijkstra(), get_dijkstra_distance(), get_dijkstra_path() methods
+  - Full TCODMap and TCODDijkstra integration with proper memory management
+  - Comprehensive test suite with both headless and interactive demos
+- ✅ **CRITICAL FIX**: PyArg bug in UIGridPoint color setter
+  - Now supports both mcrfpy.Color objects and (r,g,b,a) tuples
+  - Eliminated mysterious "SystemError: new style getargs format" crashes
+  - Proper error handling and exception propagation
+- ✅ mcrfpy.libtcod submodule with Python bindings
+  - dijkstra_compute(), dijkstra_get_distance(), dijkstra_get_path()
+  - line() function for corridor generation
+  - Foundation ready for FOV implementation
+- ✅ Test consolidation: 6 broken demos → 2 clean, working versions
