plan: 0067 stage1-r iter-2 — Sizer + RiskExecutor + metric enrichment

Iteration-2 plan for cycle 0065 (Stage-1 R signal quality). Sub-splits the
spec's iteration 2: this plan is the node + metric layer; the CLI/recording
surface (#129) becomes a separate iteration 3.

Five tasks, sequenced so each signature change threads all its callers before
its build gate, and the two signature changes land before the composite that
consumes both:

1. PositionManagement gains a 4th `size` input (col 10, from the Sizer); R
   stays size-INVARIANT (RED test pins it). Threads the PM unit tests + the
   stage1_r_e2e direct-eval column setups.
2. Sizer node (aura-std): `size = risk_budget / stop_distance`, flat-1R; the
   Stage-2 fixed-fractional seam slots in unchanged.
3. summarize_r enrichment: SQN, conviction terciles, net-of-cost; gains a
   `round_trip_cost` param (reads dense cols 6/7/9). Threads report.rs + the
   E2E callers and extends the cross-crate layout guard.
4. RunMetrics.r: Option<RMetrics> with serde(default, skip_serializing_if) for
   legacy runs.jsonl back-compat. Threads every RunMetrics literal (report.rs,
   aura-registry, aura-engine/mc).
5. RiskExecutor composite (aura-engine integration-test fixture, sibling of
   vol_stop_composite): FixedStop -> Sizer -> PositionManagement behind open
   bias+price roles, price fanned to both; bias produced in-graph (single
   source, no stale-price two-cycle merge). Veto is a documented seam, not a
   node. E2E equivalence + R-invariance under risk_budget.

# Stage-1 R — Sizer + RiskExecutor + metric enrichment (Iteration 2) — Implementation Plan
> **Parent spec:** `docs/specs/0065-stage1-r-signal-quality.md` (§ Iteration scope → "Iteration 2")
>
> **For agentic workers:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: use the `implement` skill to run
> this plan. Steps use `- [ ]` checkboxes for tracking.
**Goal:** Ship the Stage-1 sizing seam and the per-symbol risk-based executor, and
enrich the post-run R fold — the `Sizer` node (`size = risk_budget / stop_distance`,
flat-1R), the `RiskExecutor` composite (`stop-rule → Sizer → position-management`,
exposing the dense R-record), `summarize_r`'s `SQN` / conviction-terciles / net-of-cost
metrics, and an optional `RunMetrics.r` block (back-compat for legacy `runs.jsonl`).
**Architecture:** `PositionManagement` gains a 4th input slot `size` (col 10, from the
Sizer), R stays size-INVARIANT (a RED test pins it). The `Sizer` (aura-std) reads
`bias` + `stop_distance` and emits `size`. The `RiskExecutor` (an aura-engine integration-
test composite, sibling of `vol_stop_composite.rs`) wires `FixedStop → Sizer →
PositionManagement` behind open `bias` + `price` input roles, with price fanned to both
the stop and PM; the **Veto is a documented seam, not a runtime node**. `summarize_r`
reads three more dense-record columns (entry_price 6, stop_price 7, bias_at_entry_abs 9)
to compute net-of-cost and conviction terciles, and gains a `round_trip_cost` param.
`RunMetrics` gains `#[serde(default, skip_serializing_if = "Option::is_none")] r:
Option<RMetrics>`.
**Tech Stack:** `aura-std` nodes (`PositionManagement`, new `Sizer`), `aura-engine`
report fold + `GraphBuilder` composite, serde back-compat.
**Scope note (sub-split):** the spec's iteration 2 also names the CLI/recording surface
(#129). That becomes a separate **iteration 3** and is **not** planned here. This plan is
the node + metric layer only (#127 / #128 / #129-metrics).
**Sequencing rationale (compile-gates):** the two signature changes land before the
composite that consumes both, so the composite is authored once against final signatures:
Task 1 (PM 4th `size` input) → Task 2 (Sizer) → Task 3 (`summarize_r` enrichment +
`round_trip_cost` signature) → Task 4 (`RunMetrics.r`) → Task 5 (RiskExecutor composite,
uses Sizer + PM 4-input + the 2-arg `summarize_r`). Every signature change threads ALL its
callers inside its own task (no deferred caller past a build gate).

### Task 1: `PositionManagement` 4th `size` input + R-invariance
**Files:**
- Modify: `crates/aura-std/src/position_management.rs` (builder inputs ~77-81; `lookbacks` ~111-113; `eval` size read + col 10 ~120-226; test helpers ~245-251; new test)
- Modify: `crates/aura-engine/tests/stage1_r_e2e.rs` (the two direct-eval `pc` column setups ~52-63 and ~88-99)
- [ ] **Step 1: RED — add the size-aware test helper, widen `cols()`, write the invariance test (production unchanged)**
In `crates/aura-std/src/position_management.rs`, replace the test helpers block:
```rust
fn step(n: &mut PositionManagement, cols: &mut [AnyColumn], bias: f64, price: f64, dist: f64) -> Vec<Cell> {
cols[0].push(Scalar::f64(bias)).unwrap();
cols[1].push(Scalar::f64(price)).unwrap();
cols[2].push(Scalar::f64(dist)).unwrap();
n.eval(Ctx::new(cols, Timestamp(1))).expect("dense record every cycle once price present").to_vec()
}
fn cols() -> Vec<AnyColumn> { (0..3).map(|_| AnyColumn::with_capacity(ScalarKind::F64, 1)).collect() }
```
with (adds `step_sized`, makes `step` delegate with size 1.0, widens `cols()` to 4):
```rust
fn step_sized(n: &mut PositionManagement, cols: &mut [AnyColumn], bias: f64, price: f64, dist: f64, size: f64) -> Vec<Cell> {
cols[0].push(Scalar::f64(bias)).unwrap();
cols[1].push(Scalar::f64(price)).unwrap();
cols[2].push(Scalar::f64(dist)).unwrap();
cols[3].push(Scalar::f64(size)).unwrap();
n.eval(Ctx::new(cols, Timestamp(1))).expect("dense record every cycle once price present").to_vec()
}
// size defaults to 1.0 (the iter-1 placeholder value), so every existing case is
// behaviour-identical under the new 4-input shape.
fn step(n: &mut PositionManagement, cols: &mut [AnyColumn], bias: f64, price: f64, dist: f64) -> Vec<Cell> {
step_sized(n, cols, bias, price, dist, 1.0)
}
fn cols() -> Vec<AnyColumn> { (0..4).map(|_| AnyColumn::with_capacity(ScalarKind::F64, 1)).collect() }
```
Then add this test inside the same `mod tests` (after `emits_one_dense_record_per_cycle`):
```rust
// (3) R-invariance under size: the Sizer's `size` flows into col 10 but never into R.
// Scaling size leaves every realized_r identical (the property that keeps Stage 1
// feed-forward); col 10 reflects the size so we know it actually flowed end-to-end.
#[test]
fn realized_r_is_invariant_under_size() {
let run = |size: f64| {
let mut n = PositionManagement::new();
let mut c = cols();
let _ = step_sized(&mut n, &mut c, 1.0, 100.0, 10.0, size); // open long @100
step_sized(&mut n, &mut c, 0.0, 110.0, 10.0, size) // bias->0 exit @110
};
let small = run(1.0);
let big = run(7.0);
assert_eq!(small[1].f64(), big[1].f64(), "realized_r must be size-invariant");
assert_eq!(small[1].f64(), 1.0); // (110-100)/10
assert_eq!(small[10].f64(), 1.0); // size column reflects the input
assert_eq!(big[10].f64(), 7.0);
}
```
- [ ] **Step 2: Run the invariance test — expect FAIL (col 10 is the hardcoded 1.0)**
Run: `cargo test --workspace position_management`
Expected: FAIL — `realized_r_is_invariant_under_size` panics on `assert_eq!(big[10].f64(), 7.0)` (col 10 is still `Cell::from_f64(1.0)`); all other `position_management` tests PASS.
- [ ] **Step 3: GREEN — read `size` from input slot 3 into col 10; widen the schema + lookbacks**
In `crates/aura-std/src/position_management.rs`, in `builder()`, add a 4th input PortSpec after `stop_distance`:
```rust
let inputs = vec![
PortSpec { kind: ScalarKind::F64, firing: Firing::Any, name: "bias".into() },
PortSpec { kind: ScalarKind::F64, firing: Firing::Any, name: "price".into() },
PortSpec { kind: ScalarKind::F64, firing: Firing::Any, name: "stop_distance".into() },
PortSpec { kind: ScalarKind::F64, firing: Firing::Any, name: "size".into() },
];
```
Change `lookbacks` to four entries:
```rust
fn lookbacks(&self) -> Vec<usize> {
vec![1, 1, 1, 1]
}
```
In `eval`, add the size read next to the other slot reads (after the `dist` line ~122):
```rust
let dist = ctx.f64_in(2).get(0).unwrap_or(0.0);
let size = ctx.f64_in(3).get(0).unwrap_or(1.0); // the Sizer's size; defaults to flat-1R 1.0 if unwired
let now = ctx.now();
```
Change the col-10 cell in the `self.out = [...]` record from the placeholder to the input size:
```rust
Cell::from_f64(size), // size: from the Sizer (slot 3); R stays size-invariant
```
- [ ] **Step 4: Thread the two direct-eval callers in the E2E (the production eval now reads slot 3)**
In `crates/aura-engine/tests/stage1_r_e2e.rs`, in `synthetic_long_then_stop_produces_a_sane_rmetric`, widen `pc` to 4 columns and push a size:
```rust
let mut pc: Vec<AnyColumn> =
(0..4).map(|_| AnyColumn::with_capacity(ScalarKind::F64, 1)).collect();
```
and after the `pc[2].push(...)` line in that test's loop, add:
```rust
pc[2].push(Scalar::f64(dist)).unwrap();
pc[3].push(Scalar::f64(1.0)).unwrap(); // flat-1R size; R is size-invariant
```
Apply the identical change in `run_chain`: widen its `pc` to `(0..4)` and add `pc[3].push(Scalar::f64(1.0)).unwrap();` after its `pc[2].push(...)` line.
- [ ] **Step 5: Run PM + E2E + full suite — expect PASS (no panic, R unchanged)**
Run: `cargo test --workspace position_management`
Expected: PASS (all PM tests incl. `realized_r_is_invariant_under_size`).
Run: `cargo test --workspace stage1_r`
Expected: PASS (the E2E's `pc` now has slot 3; R-outcomes unchanged).
Run: `cargo test --workspace`
Expected: PASS, same total count as before plus the one new test.

### Task 2: `Sizer` node (flat-1R seam)
**Files:**
- Create: `crates/aura-std/src/sizer.rs``size = risk_budget / stop_distance`
- Modify: `crates/aura-std/src/lib.rs` (`mod sizer;` + `pub use sizer::Sizer;`)
- [ ] **Step 1: RED — create `sizer.rs` with the node skeleton and its tests, but a wrong `eval`**
Create `crates/aura-std/src/sizer.rs`:
```rust
//! `Sizer` — the flat-1R sizing seam (C10 Stage-1). Turns a protective-stop distance
//! into a position `size = risk_budget / stop_distance`: with `risk_budget = 1.0` this is
//! true flat-1R (one risk unit per trade) and `size` is inversely proportional to the
//! stop — NOT a constant. The `bias` input gates firing (a size is only meaningful when a
//! strategy is taking a position) and is the Stage-2 seam: fixed-fractional sizing swaps
//! `risk_budget` for `risk_fraction · equity` (an added equity input), same node shape.
//! R is computed SIZE-INVARIANTLY downstream, so the Sizer never contaminates signal
//! quality — it only scales the (Stage-2) currency exposure.

}
}
```
To make the test RED first, write the `eval` body initially as the WRONG constant (so
`sizer_is_flat_1r_invariant` and `sizer_is_none_until_both_inputs_present` fail), then fix
it in Step 3. Initial wrong body for `eval` (replace the `let d = ...; let size = ...`
lines):
```rust
let _d = dist[0];
let size = self.risk_budget; // WRONG (constant, ignores the stop distance) — RED
self.out[0] = Cell::from_f64(size);
Some(&self.out)
```
Add the module wiring in `crates/aura-std/src/lib.rs`: add `mod sizer;` in the `mod`
block (alphabetical, after `mod sim_broker;` / before `mod sma;` — place as `mod sizer;`
near the other `s*` modules) and `pub use sizer::Sizer;` in the `pub use` block (after
`pub use sim_broker::SimBroker;`).
- [ ] **Step 2: Run the sizer tests — expect FAIL (constant size breaks the flat-1R invariant)**
Run: `cargo test --workspace sizer`
Expected: FAIL — `sizer_is_flat_1r_invariant` fails (`size*dist != budget` because size is the constant `risk_budget`) and `sizer_is_none_until_both_inputs_present` fails (`0.1` expected, `1.0` got); the two `#[should_panic]` tests PASS.
- [ ] **Step 3: GREEN — implement `size = risk_budget / stop_distance`**
In `crates/aura-std/src/sizer.rs`, replace the wrong `eval` body with the correct one:
```rust
let d = dist[0];
// a zero/degenerate stop distance yields zero size (no division blow-up); a real
// stop rule emits a strictly positive distance, so this guards only warm-up edges.
let size = if d > 0.0 { self.risk_budget / d } else { 0.0 };
self.out[0] = Cell::from_f64(size);
Some(&self.out)
```
- [ ] **Step 4: Run the sizer tests + full suite — expect PASS**
Run: `cargo test --workspace sizer`
Expected: PASS (all five sizer tests).
Run: `cargo test --workspace`
Expected: PASS.

### Task 3: `summarize_r` enrichment (SQN, conviction terciles, net-of-cost) + `round_trip_cost`
**Files:**
- Modify: `crates/aura-engine/src/report.rs` (`RMetrics` struct ~36; `r_col` module ~50; `summarize_r` body ~61-109; the four test call sites + new tests + a richer row helper)
- Modify: `crates/aura-engine/tests/stage1_r_e2e.rs` (two `summarize_r` calls ~74, ~107; the layout-guard test + module consts)
- [ ] **Step 1: RED — add the new `RMetrics` fields + the new metric tests + a richer row helper (leave `summarize_r` computing them as zero/placeholder)**
In `crates/aura-engine/src/report.rs`, extend the `RMetrics` struct with three fields
(append after `n_open_at_end`):
```rust
pub n_open_at_end: u64, // positions force-closed at window end (counted, not hidden)
pub sqn: f64, // √n · mean_R / sample-stdev_R; n<2 or zero-variance -> 0.0
pub net_expectancy_r: f64, // mean(R - round_trip_cost / latched_dist) — churn-honest
pub conviction_terciles_r: [f64; 3], // E[R] by |bias_at_entry| tercile (asc); <3 trades -> [0,0,0]
```
Extend the `r_col` module with the three geometry indices the enrichment reads:
```rust
mod r_col {
pub const CLOSED: usize = 0;
pub const REALIZED_R: usize = 1;
pub const ENTRY_PRICE: usize = 6;
pub const STOP_PRICE: usize = 7;
pub const BIAS_AT_ENTRY_ABS: usize = 9;
pub const OPEN: usize = 11;
pub const UNREALIZED_R: usize = 12;
}
```
Change the `summarize_r` signature to add the `round_trip_cost` param and update BOTH
`RMetrics` returns (the empty-path and the full-path) to include the three new fields set
to zero/placeholder for now (keeps it RED — the new tests will fail on the real values):
- signature: `pub fn summarize_r(record: &[(Timestamp, Vec<Scalar>)], round_trip_cost: f64) -> RMetrics {`
- empty return: append `sqn: 0.0, net_expectancy_r: 0.0, conviction_terciles_r: [0.0; 3],`
- full return: append `sqn: 0.0, net_expectancy_r: 0.0, conviction_terciles_r: [0.0; 3],`
- silence the unused param for the RED step by prefixing: `let _ = round_trip_cost;` at the top of the body.
Update the FOUR existing `summarize_r` call sites in `report.rs` tests to pass a cost:
- `summarize_r(&[])``summarize_r(&[], 0.0)`
- `summarize_r(&rec)` (in `summarize_r_expectancy_winrate_profit_factor`) → `summarize_r(&rec, 0.0)`
- `summarize_r(&rec)` (in `summarize_r_force_closes_open_position_at_window_end`) → `summarize_r(&rec, 0.0)`
- `summarize_r(&rec).max_r_drawdown` (in `summarize_r_max_drawdown_on_by_trade_curve`) → `summarize_r(&rec, 0.0).max_r_drawdown`
Extend the empty-ledger test to assert the new zero fields:
```rust
#[test]
fn summarize_r_is_zero_on_empty() {
let m = summarize_r(&[], 0.0);
assert_eq!(m.n_trades, 0);
assert_eq!(m.expectancy_r, 0.0);
assert_eq!(m.max_r_drawdown, 0.0);
assert_eq!(m.sqn, 0.0);
assert_eq!(m.net_expectancy_r, 0.0);
assert_eq!(m.conviction_terciles_r, [0.0; 3]);
}
```
Add a richer dense-row helper (next to the existing `r_row`), which also sets the geometry
columns the enrichment reads:
```rust
// A fuller closed-trade dense row: also sets entry_price (6), stop_price (7) and
// bias_at_entry_abs (9) — the geometry summarize_r recovers latched_dist and
// conviction from. Width up to UNREALIZED_R+1 (summarize_r never reads col 13).
fn r_row_full(realized: f64, entry: f64, stop: f64, bias_abs: f64) -> (Timestamp, Vec<Scalar>) {
let mut v = vec![Scalar::f64(0.0); r_col::UNREALIZED_R + 1];
v[r_col::CLOSED] = Scalar::bool(true);
v[r_col::REALIZED_R] = Scalar::f64(realized);
v[r_col::ENTRY_PRICE] = Scalar::f64(entry);
v[r_col::STOP_PRICE] = Scalar::f64(stop);
v[r_col::BIAS_AT_ENTRY_ABS] = Scalar::f64(bias_abs);
v[r_col::OPEN] = Scalar::bool(false);
(Timestamp(0), v)
}
```
Add the new metric tests inside `report.rs`'s `mod tests`:
```rust
#[test]
fn summarize_r_sqn_is_sqrt_n_mean_over_stdev() {
// R = [1, 1, 1, -1]: mean 0.5; sample var = ((0.5)^2*3 + (1.5)^2)/3 = 1.0; sd = 1;

];
let m = summarize_r(&rec, 0.0);
assert!((m.sqn - 1.0).abs() < 1e-9, "sqn = sqrt(n)*mean/sd; got {}", m.sqn);
}

// n < 2 -> 0

// identical R -> zero variance -> 0
let flat = vec![r_row(true, 1.0, false, 0.0), r_row(true, 1.0, false, 0.0), r_row(true, 1.0, false, 0.0)];
assert_eq!(summarize_r(&flat, 0.0).sqn, 0.0);
}
#[test]

let calibrated = vec![
r_row_full(-2.0, 100.0, 99.0, 0.1),
r_row_full(-1.0, 100.0, 99.0, 0.2),
r_row_full(0.0, 100.0, 99.0, 0.5),

- [ ] **Step 2: Run `summarize_r` tests — expect FAIL (new metrics still zero)**

Remove the temporary `let _ = round_trip_cost;` line added in Step 1 (the param is now used).
- [ ] **Step 4: Thread the E2E `summarize_r` calls + extend the layout-guard test**
In `crates/aura-engine/tests/stage1_r_e2e.rs`, update the two `summarize_r` calls:
- `let m = summarize_r(&ledger);` (in `synthetic_long_then_stop_produces_a_sane_rmetric`) → `let m = summarize_r(&ledger, 0.0);`
- `summarize_r(&ledger)` (the tail of `run_chain`) → `summarize_r(&ledger, 0.0)`
Add three module-level consts next to the existing ones (after `const UNREALIZED_R: usize = 12;`):
```rust
const ENTRY_PRICE: usize = 6;
const STOP_PRICE: usize = 7;
const BIAS_AT_ENTRY_ABS: usize = 9;
```
Extend `r_col_indices_match_producer_field_layout` to pin the three new read indices
(append before the closing brace of the test):
```rust
// iter-2 reads: entry_price (6), stop_price (7), bias_at_entry_abs (9) — the geometry
// summarize_r recovers latched_dist (net-of-cost) and conviction (terciles) from.
assert_eq!(PM_FIELD_NAMES[ENTRY_PRICE], "entry_price");
assert_eq!(PM_FIELD_NAMES[STOP_PRICE], "stop_price");
assert_eq!(PM_FIELD_NAMES[BIAS_AT_ENTRY_ABS], "bias_at_entry_abs");
assert_eq!(PM_RECORD_KINDS[ENTRY_PRICE], ScalarKind::F64);
assert_eq!(PM_RECORD_KINDS[STOP_PRICE], ScalarKind::F64);
assert_eq!(PM_RECORD_KINDS[BIAS_AT_ENTRY_ABS], ScalarKind::F64);
```
- [ ] **Step 5: Run `summarize_r` + E2E + full suite — expect PASS**
Run: `cargo test --workspace summarize_r`
Expected: PASS (all summarize_r tests incl. the three new metric tests).
Run: `cargo test --workspace stage1_r`
Expected: PASS (E2E folds with the 2-arg signature; the guard pins the three new indices).
Run: `cargo test --workspace`
Expected: PASS.

### Task 4: `RunMetrics.r` optional block (legacy `runs.jsonl` back-compat)
**Files:**
- Modify: `crates/aura-engine/src/report.rs` (`RunMetrics` struct ~17-30; the `summarize` constructor ~238; three test literals ~711, ~738, ~758; new serde tests)
- [ ] **Step 1: RED — write the serde tests first**
Add to `crates/aura-engine/src/report.rs`'s `mod tests`:
```rust
#[test]
fn runmetrics_with_r_block_round_trips() {
let m = RunMetrics {
total_pips: 3.0,
max_drawdown: 1.0,
exposure_sign_flips: 2,
r: Some(RMetrics {
expectancy_r: 0.5,
n_trades: 4,
win_rate: 0.5,
avg_win_r: 1.5,
avg_loss_r: -0.5,
profit_factor: 3.0,
max_r_drawdown: 0.5,
n_open_at_end: 1,
sqn: 1.0,
net_expectancy_r: 0.4,
conviction_terciles_r: [-0.5, 0.5, 1.5],
}),
};
let json = serde_json::to_string(&m).expect("serialize");
assert!(json.contains("\"r\":{"), "r block present when Some: {json}");
let back: RunMetrics = serde_json::from_str(&json).expect("deserialize");
assert_eq!(back, m);
}
#[test]
fn legacy_runmetrics_without_r_field_deserialises_to_none() {
// a pre-`r` runs.jsonl line: no `r` key at all.
let legacy = r#"{"total_pips":12.0,"max_drawdown":1.0,"exposure_sign_flips":1}"#;
let m: RunMetrics = serde_json::from_str(legacy).expect("legacy line still deserialises");
assert_eq!(m.r, None);
assert_eq!(m.total_pips, 12.0);
}
#[test]
fn runmetrics_none_r_is_omitted_from_json() {
let m = RunMetrics { total_pips: 1.0, max_drawdown: 0.0, exposure_sign_flips: 0, r: None };
let json = serde_json::to_string(&m).expect("serialize");
assert!(!json.contains("\"r\""), "a None r must be omitted from the JSON: {json}");
}
```
- [ ] **Step 2: Run — expect FAIL to COMPILE (`RunMetrics` has no field `r`)**
Run: `cargo test --workspace runmetrics`
Expected: FAIL — compile error `struct RunMetrics has no field named r` (the three new tests reference `r`). This is the RED state.
- [ ] **Step 3: GREEN — add the `r` field + thread the constructors**
In `crates/aura-engine/src/report.rs`, append the field to `RunMetrics` (after
`exposure_sign_flips`):
```rust
pub exposure_sign_flips: u64,
/// Optional Stage-1 R metrics block. `None` for a pip-only run (and for legacy
/// `runs.jsonl` written before this field existed — `serde(default)`); omitted from
/// the JSON entirely when absent (`skip_serializing_if`), so the pip-only on-disk
/// shape stays byte-unchanged (C14/C18 back-compat).
#[serde(default, skip_serializing_if = "Option::is_none")]
pub r: Option<RMetrics>,
```
Thread the `summarize` constructor (the pip fold's return ~238):
```rust
RunMetrics { total_pips, max_drawdown, exposure_sign_flips, r: None }
```
Thread the three test literals that build `RunMetrics` directly (in
`to_json_renders_the_canonical_form`, `to_json_equals_serde_disk_shape`,
`runreport_serde_round_trips`) — add `, r: None` to each:
```rust
metrics: RunMetrics { total_pips: 12.0, max_drawdown: 1.0, exposure_sign_flips: 1, r: None },
```
(For `to_json_renders_the_canonical_form` the literal spans multiple lines; add `r: None`
as the last field. The exact-string assertion is unaffected — a `None` `r` is skipped from
the JSON, so the canonical string is byte-identical.)
Thread the two cross-crate `RunMetrics` literals (both `#[cfg(test)]` helpers in OTHER
crates — a Rust struct literal needs every field, so the new `r` breaks their compile and
the `cargo test --workspace` gate would catch it; they must be threaded in this same task):
- `crates/aura-registry/src/lib.rs:214`
`metrics: RunMetrics { total_pips, max_drawdown, exposure_sign_flips: flips },`
`metrics: RunMetrics { total_pips, max_drawdown, exposure_sign_flips: flips, r: None },`
- `crates/aura-engine/src/mc.rs:208` — the multi-line literal; add `r: None,` after the
`exposure_sign_flips: v as u64,` line:
```rust
metrics: RunMetrics {
total_pips: v,
max_drawdown: v,
exposure_sign_flips: v as u64,
r: None,
},
```
(`crates/aura-registry/src/compat.rs:23` is a struct *field* declaration, not a literal,
and deserialises via `RunMetrics`'s derived `Deserialize``serde(default)` covers the
missing `r`, so it needs no change. `aura-ingest/examples/ger40_breakout_compare.rs` only
calls `summarize()` and reads fields — no literal to thread.)
- [ ] **Step 4: Run the serde tests + the canonical-form test + full suite — expect PASS**
Run: `cargo test --workspace runmetrics`
Expected: PASS (the three new serde tests).
Run: `cargo test --workspace to_json`
Expected: PASS (the canonical-form + disk-shape tests — `None` `r` is omitted, JSON unchanged).
Run: `cargo test --workspace`
Expected: PASS.

### Task 5: `RiskExecutor` composite (integration-test fixture) + E2E

//! the hand-wired iter-1 chain, and that R is invariant under the Sizer's `risk_budget`
//! (Stage-1 feed-forward). The Veto is a DOCUMENTED SEAM, not a runtime node (a
//! pass-through identity is exactly what C19/C23 DCE deletes), so it appears nowhere here.
