Description

I added this to opty to allow problem access in the objective and gradient: https://github.com/csu-hmc/opty/pull/497

I am working on these two new methods that should let you extract values from the free optimization vector and fill the gradient all by symbol name: https://github.com/csu-hmc/opty/pull/499

Research direction

Start by reviewing the two linked opty pull requests (#497 and #499) and the repository's Python optimization entry points. Confirm whether the requested objective and gradient workflow belongs in this repository or in opty; done means symbol-name access works without manually counting indices.
