SLIM is currently configured to work with the CESM2.1 release series. It's fairly easy to update to versions along the CESM2.1 series, and we have done that.
To have a development version of SLIM that is kept up to date with the latest CESM, we need to update to CESM2.3. Part of that means creating a new NUOPC cap for SLIM and doing the cime_config and coupler cap updates that are needed. I think the source code can largely remain the same, other than the development of the new NUOPC cap. There are some changes in cime_config that you can see in CTSM from CESM2.1 to CESM2.3 that will need to be moved over as well. But, largely the new python version of buildnml for SLIM should be good to be used in CESM2.3.
I'm creating this issue to track some of the things that will need to be done for that update, as I figure them out.
