Hello Support Team ,
The idea of creating libraries to reuse is a really good one, but so far I haven't used it because the files added from the library are not saved with each backtest. This means that, if I want to clone a backtest, in order to make it run again I have to find the exact version of the library file I originally ran it with. Is this correct?
If my understanding is correct, have you considered saving all the files, including those added from the user's library, in the backtest results? I think that being able to have the backtest results stored together with the exact code that produced them is a big plus of the platform.
Thank you!

Thanks yes we considered it but the security implications were tricky so we opted for not including them by default. Maybe later we can implement an opt-in for sharing the project code =)
