The authoring guide's ops table grows the name row (ten -> eleven) plus
a paragraph on what the graph default costs a multi-strategy project
(indistinguishable store entries, one shared trace directory, colliding
use-splice instance defaults). C24's op-script grammar records the
eleventh verb and the two-seam shape gate with its C29 read-back
exemption; the glossary's blueprint-label entry now separates the
render name (op-settable, keys trace runs and instance defaults) from
the registry label (register --name, explicit, orthogonal).
refs #331
The C24 axis-discovery paragraph loses its obsolete rationale (names
prefixed by the wrapping, discovery pinned to the sweep verb) in favour
of the one-raw-namespace statement; C18 records the ratified #246
bound-override coincidence contract (param_space OR bound_param_space,
no schema flag) as the document-side absorption #328 demanded; the
glossary sweep and use entries, the authoring-guide worked block, and
the README axis examples move to raw names. Refusal transcripts quote
the byte-actual binary output (review caught an invented aura: error:
prefix; the campaign-validate transcript shows the real fault_block
shape). Frozen corpora (fieldtests/, *.history.md) keep their
historical wrapped prose.
refs #328
Fieldtest spec-gap ratified: Count is a plain positive decimal with no
sign and no leading zeros ('03' refuses) — and the per-kind asymmetry
against TimeOfDay's required zero-pad is deliberate, pinned with its
rationale: canonical is each domain's conventional notation,
fixed-width for wall-clock times, minimal for numbers.
refs #271
C24 gains the add-op args clause and the data-driven format-version
paragraph (tier-2 discipline with id-stability); C15's current state
records Session as args-authorable; the glossary defines construction
arg and arg kind (and de-stales the session-node entry to aura-market);
the authoring guide fixes the moved roster path, extends the
Session-anchoring section with the args path, and teaches the add-op
args row; the README op-list sentence notes args on arg-bearing types.
refs #271
C24: the op-script grammar section is rewritten to the ten verbs — repairing a
pre-existing drift on the way (it read "The eight verbs" and omitted the doc
op shipped with #316) — with the new use row and the open-pattern reading of
input roles; a "Registered-blueprint splice" paragraph records the resolution
split (all store I/O CLI-side at DTO conversion; the engine's second injected
closure mirrors vocab, the §"Enforcement shift" permission extended to
registered-blueprint references); the construction-gates paragraph moves
root-role boundness from the holistic finalize list to compile/bootstrap only
(#317 comment 4627).
C29: the register-seam wording drops "named" — the code gates EVERY nested
composite, recon-confirmed pre-existing prose/code mismatch — and the use seam
joins the seam list (build-time gate on fetched store content; no retroactive
invalidation of existing reads).
Glossary: use (op) and blueprint label entries. Authoring guide: ten ops
(the stale "nine ops" heading + the input row's obsolete finalize-refusal
claim corrected), the use row, and the register --name / discovery paragraph.
Prose truth per review: instance params are sweepable, NOT gangable (the gang
op refuses a composite instance's member path) — stated as such everywhere;
the gangability of spliced instances is recorded residue, not a claim.
refs #317
Fieldtest spec_gap (#335): the timestamp a fold's one summary row
carries was undocumented. Ratified as-is (derived decision, minuted on
the issue): the row is emitted at finalize and stamped with the instant
of the last contributing (warm) value (TapFold::last_ts) — first alone
pins the first contributing instant, and min/max deliberately do not
carry the extremum's instant (a whole-window row privileges no interior
instant, and the extremum ts would cost extra state for no consumer).
The issue's initial finalize-ts reading (and the first draft of this
ratification) was refuted in review against tap_fold.rs: a tap that
goes cold before run end stamps the last WARM eval's instant, not the
run-end instant — observationally identical only while the tap stays
warm to the end, which is what the fieldtest fixtures did. Correction
minuted on the issue.
Recorded in C27's Current state and the glossary tap-plan paragraph;
the fold-registry roster doc lines state it on the surface itself
(sibling commit).
closes#335
Two fold-selector fieldtest findings on the --tap seam, RED-first.
Skipped-tap note (#334): an explicit --tap plan replaces the record-all
default entirely (C27: unbound is inert) but gave no runtime signal that
unlisted declared taps went unbound — a forgotten tap surfaced only as a
missing trace file. bind_tap_plan's unbound arm now emits the C14 benign
note (aura: note: declared tap "<name>" unbound this run) per skipped
tap, exit unaffected. No new carrier: the arm is only reachable when
plan.default_named is None (an explicit plan) — under record-all it is
structurally dead, so the default emits nothing. Emitted runner-side
beside the existing eprintln registers; the runner->CLI print migration
is #297.
Undeclared-tap refusal (#333): --tap on a tap the blueprint does not
declare was refused without naming the valid taps, forcing the author
back into the blueprint JSON. TapPlanError::UnknownTap now carries the
declared-tap roster and Display appends it, mirroring UnknownLabel's
fold-roster idiom (C29: a refusal names the closed set it checks
against). Decision minuted on #333 (refusal roster over a new introspect
view).
Rider (#335): the fold roster doc lines now state the summary-row
timestamp — the accumulator folds (count/sum/mean/min/max) land one row
at the last warm (contributing) value's ts, and last gains the same
at-its-own-timestamp wording first already carried. The ratification
record lands in the sibling ledger/glossary commit.
closes#334closes#333
Decide #310's data-authorability fork as (b), split by run-mode
authority: selecting a Named fold subscription is data-reachable on the
one-shot run path; adding a fold stays a Rust entry (role 2, C25).
`aura run` gains a repeatable --tap TAP=FOLD selector feeding the
existing TapPlan seam: no flag keeps the record-all default; any flag
replaces the plan entirely (unlisted taps stay unbound — C27 inert,
non-error). Validation stays in bind_tap_plan (roster-enumerating label
refusal, typed UndeclaredTap, both before store I/O); parse-level
refusals (malformed pair, duplicate tap) exit 2 via the verb's usage
convention.
Rejected alternatives (minuted on #310 with the skeptic-pass
rationale): an op-script/blueprint carrier (C27 forbids recording
policy in the serialized fragment); ratifying Rust-only (softens a
designed-in promise with effort as the only rationale). The
campaign/document carrier and the persist_taps/declared-tap namespace
reconciliation are deferred to the Measurement-reachable milestone
(#312/#327, minuted on #312).
Ledger: C27 Current state records the boundary; the superseded sentence
moved verbatim to the new c27-declared-taps.history.md sidecar; the
glossary tap-plan paragraph updated, fixing the pre-existing inaccuracy
that named `aura measure` a record-all-passing verb (it is the post-hoc
IC analysis and constructs no tap plan).
Verification: 5 new unit tests (parse branches), 5 new binary-level
selector tests incl. a byte-identity pin of an explicit all-record plan
vs the record-all default (C1), 1 measurement-arm test; full workspace
suite green; clippy -D warnings clean. Independent opus diff review:
approved, no Important/Minor findings (nits: inert-arm generic refusal,
a=b=c falling to the roster refusal — accepted as-is).
closes#310
Iteration stderr-markers-2 close, task 5 of the stderr-class-markers
plan. C14's Current state gains the marker paragraph — note/warning
classes for continuing-run diagnostics, bare `aura: ` for exit-carrying
error lines and plain info lines, grep-stable grammar, single source in
aura-cli/src/diag.rs — and the glossary gains the `stderr class marker`
entry. No new C-number: C14 already owns the CLI stderr conventions and
the exit-code partition this grammar completes (derivation logged on
the #278 decision thread).
With this the milestone promise is shipped: the two diagnostic classes
are machine-separable on stderr (#278), and the all-zero-trade
walk-forward announces itself instead of completing silently (#313).
Exit-code semantics unchanged throughout.

Cycle-close audit for the #283/#77 tap-subscribers cycle
(09994b8..6e3f394). Architect review: code contract-clean; what
holds — C1/C7/C8 (empty-output caller-built consumers, (Timestamp,
Cell) zero-heap payload, lifecycle hooks inside the sequential loop,
byte-identical twin-run and streamed-vs-legacy byte-equality pins),
C28 (assembly-crate placement of the writer-holding consumer,
c28_layering guard green), C25 (registry growth = new Rust entry,
data-expressible Named form, roster-enumerating refusals). All drift
items were doc lifts, resolved in this commit:
- C8: the lifecycle is now a symmetric pair — initialize() as
finalize's start-of-stream mirror (infallible by signature;
acquire-in-initialize, degrade-to-inert, surface-once-at-finalize);
history sidecar records the refinement and the #77 resolution the
old Deferred paragraph still carried as open.
- C27: Guarantee and Current state now describe the shipped model —
tap plan (Named{label, params} | Live) over the layered fold
registry, BOTH entry points (run_signal_r AND run_measurement) on
the one shared wiring pair, record streaming at constant memory.
- C28: aura-runner now defines one graph node of its own (the
in-graph record consumer — exactly the graph-meets-persistence
assembly position); the #297 refusal-site count grows ~20 → ~24
(the four tap-plan refusals, already typed before the exit).
- glossary §tap: the subscription/fold-registry sense added; Avoid
line steers probe/monitor/scope away from the observation slot.

Architect review (cycle 757e3ac): core clean — show is pure shell
dispatch over Env::registry() (C28); both ledger amendments match the
F1-F8 decision log exactly; document schema untouched; the #164
no-framing pin is stricter than the spec snippet asked. Four peripheral
drift items, resolved:
- fix: docs/authoring-guide.md verb rosters now name show (process) and
show|runs (campaign) — the guide teaches exactly the
generate->retrieve->extend loop this cycle closed.
- fix: docs/glossary.md campaign/process document entries carry the
settled verb sets (record-reality glossary write).
- fix: show_process's not-found refusal now sources its prose from
ref_fault_prose(ProcessNotFound) instead of a hand-copied format!
(byte-identical, test-pinned; the campaign-side prose has no RefFault
sibling and stays the single campaign instance).
- ratify (log-only): the shipped show helpers use print! (no framing,
#164) where the spec snippet sketched println! — the code is the
stricter, correct form; recorded on the reference issue's decision
log. The spec is a git-ignored working file swept at this close.
Regression: aura-bench report-only run, all fingerprints OK, deltas in
noise (host load 9.6 noted; engine/ingest/campaign/cli lanes all within
±5%). Full aura-cli gates re-run green after the tidy edits.
refs #300
Surfaced by the measurement-milestone fieldtest: a downstream author
reaching for session anchoring or declared taps had no public statement of
either — the semantics lived only in node source / the design ledger.
SessionFrankfurt / Session output semantics:
- glossary `session node`: corrected — it claimed three streams
(`bars_since_open`, `in_session`, `session_open_ts`), but the shipped node
emits ONE `i64` field `bars_since_open`. Now states the real contract: the
count of completed bar-periods since the local (tz-aware, DST-correct)
session open, close-instant indexed (09:15->1, 09:45->3; pre-open <=0), with
the Frankfurt 09:00 Europe/Berlin open + `period_minutes` knob + the
value-ignored `trigger`.
- authoring-guide: a "Session anchoring: the SessionFrankfurt preset"
subsection — schema (trigger / period_minutes / bars_since_open), the
close-instant multiples, the EqConst gating pattern, DST handling, and the
add-snippet. Verified against `aura graph introspect --node SessionFrankfurt`.
Declared-tap authoring (C27 / the #284 tap op):
- authoring-guide: the `tap` op-table row (seven ops -> eight) + a worked
"declaring a measurement tap" example. The example is verified: piping it
through `aura graph build` emits
`taps:[{"name":"spread","from":{"node":2,"field":0}}]`.
- design ledger op-list (INDEX.md): a `tap` bullet (seven verbs -> eight);
also corrected the `expose` "only verb that keeps `as`" claim — `tap` keeps
it too.
- README op-kind enumeration: adds `tap`.
Docs only; no code change. Both worked examples were run through the built
`aura` binary; the SessionFrankfurt schema was checked against introspect.
closes#285
The measurement milestone overloaded 'tap': beside the closed campaign
persist_taps vocabulary (equity | exposure | r_equity | net_r_equity), the
word now also names a declared tap — a Composite.taps entry a hand-authored
blueprint declares on an interior output wire (C27), the output-side twin of
an input_role, bound run-mode-aware. Record-reality glossary update
reconciling the two senses; a worked authoring example is owed at docwriter
(#285).
The second risk-regime variant vol_tf{period_minutes, length, k}
computes the vol estimator over completed time buckets: an H1 signal
gets an H1-matched stop in the research matrix instead of a hand-scaled
minute stop (the issue's k-inflation workaround retires). Additive
externally-tagged serde (stored Vol documents keep their content ids);
the executor arm wires the VolTfStop primitive via the builder+bind
chain; validate checks period_minutes/length/k positivity per regime.
The member-manifest round-trip holds for both variants (C1): vol_tf
members stamp stop_period_minutes/stop_length/stop_k and the reproduce
path re-derives the VolTf stop whenever stop_period_minutes is present
— never a silent default-Vol fallback. The Regimes slot label and the
unit notes name the new variant (period_minutes IS the stop's
timescale); glossary, authoring guide, and design ledger record the
second variant. Default regime and sugar paths byte-untouched.
Coverage: node units (rollover-only emission, bucket-delta math, the
constant-|delta| correspondence with the per-cycle regime), executor
fold, serde/validate units, the manifest round-trip unit, and a
hostless two-regime e2e (distinct ordinals; vol_tf members stamp their
timescale, vol members do not).
closes#262
campaign introspect --unwired now annotates the four silently
misreadable knobs with unit/semantics sub-lines: cost_per_trade is a
price-unit numerator charged as cost/|entry−stop| in R (not a cost in
R); slip_vol_mult multiplies the per-cycle vol estimate; vol.length
smooths the estimator and does not set the stop's timescale; vol.k
scales the stop distance (the risk-unit lever). Rendered additively
via a new OpenSlot.notes field, so the sibling tests pinning the slot
hint lines verbatim stay green byte-identically.
The glossary's cost-model and risk-regime entries mirror the same
semantics inline (two-sentence convention kept), the risk entry
pointing at #262 for the timescale-matched variant.
closes#265
Task 7 of the bound-override cycle: the design ledger's C12 records the
bound-as-default semantics (axis 1 may name a bound param; identity reads
the authored document; the retired axes-bind-only-open-knobs restriction
was an implementation consequence, not a recorded decision), the glossary's
blueprint entry carries the same sentence, and the authoring-guide's
data-only starter section explains the one-file run+sweep quickstart.
closes#246
- CLAUDE.md invariant 9 amended end to end: a project is a directory
anchored by a static Aura.toml, data-only by default; native node
logic lives in attached node crates (the nodes/ antecedent removed —
user decision 2026-07-12, re-opened by the role model's diagnosis).
- docs/project-layout.md reworked to the two tiers (data-only default
tree + sibling node crate, workspace note under the crate half); the
day-in-the-life walkthrough now attaches the project's node crate
once and wires the namespace the shown command actually produces.
- docs/authoring-guide.md: data-only quickstart (closed run target,
open sweep target) + `aura nodes new` as the native entry; section
cross-reference updated.
- docs/glossary.md: new "data-only project" and "node crate" entries;
Aura.toml and manifest entries carry the tier split.
- docs/design/INDEX.md: realization note (wiring-only tier, #241) in
the project-environment section.
- rustdoc: `[nodes]` intra-doc-link escapes in project.rs/main.rs.
Full gates green: workspace suite (all binaries), clippy -D warnings,
doc build without new warnings.

The tail audit over d1e01ef..62f6592 found no code drift against the
contracts (C18 name-resolution read-only, C23 doc identity-blind and
inline-dissolved, C1 fit deterministic) but four lagging records, fixed
here: the #106 real-roller amendment gains the #239 fit-to-window note
(fixed sizes are a ceiling on the sugar path); a #125 realization note
records the composite doc as a C23 debug symbol with its serde/identity/
viewer treatment; the glossary identity-id and composite entries name
the doc; GraphSession::finish states the deliberate absence of a
doc-carrying op-script surface (refs #125) instead of leaving the
authoring asymmetry silent.
The NotFound arm of emit_chart now queries the recorded campaign runs:
records with a persisted trace_name whose stored campaign document
carries name == ARG. A unique match re-dispatches the existing charting
path onto the resolved handle; several matches refuse listing the
candidate handles in append order (refuse-don't-guess — re-running a
named invocation legitimately yields {campaign8}-0, -1, ...); zero
matches keep the not-found message verbatim. The exact trace-store
handle always wins; the name never becomes a store key (C18 untouched).
Guide §3 and the glossary tap entry document the name alternative.
closes#238
- glossary "tap" + authoring-guide §3: the chart handle of a
sweep/walkforward --trace family is the printed family handle
(members keyed <cell>/<member>) — the campaign trace_name analog was
documented, the sweep case was not (fieldtest spec_gap).
- authoring-guide §0: state the input window's financial-style ordering
(index 0 = newest, index k = k cycles back) where the node pattern is
taught — previously only in the design ledger's RingBuffer note.
- authoring-guide §3: the #234 cost block joins the open-slot list, the
worked campaign example, and the prose (charge modes, net-vs-gross
default, manifest stamping) — it was discoverable only via
campaign introspect --unwired.
Fieldtest fixtures: 09da04f.
The two open examples now expose their author-intended single knobs — the
closed builders always bound these pairs to one value by hand; the open forms
falsely offered them as independent axes:
- r_breakout_open: channel_hi.length + channel_lo.length -> channel_length
(the Donchian channel is structurally ONE parameter)
- r_meanrev_open: mean_window.length + var_window.length -> window; the band
factor stays an independent axis
Regenerated via the emitters (never hand-edited); the closed examples are
byte-unchanged. The carve builders gang in the open branch only.
Test migration: the two axis-namespace pins, five --real e2e invocations
(single gang axis, the 10,20 diagonal for the campaign pair — the mismatched
20,40/10,20 grid was exactly the configuration space the gang retires), and
the param_stability row counts (4 -> 3). The r-sma walkforward golden anchor
is untouched (it never swept a ganged pair).
Docs: authoring-guide gains the seventh op + the third param state
(open/bound/ganged) + the gang wrap note; README op list + Axis concept;
glossary gang entry; ledger C24 records the gang verb and the pre-ship
Tier-2 dormancy (no format-version bump while no out-of-repo reader exists).
Verified: full workspace suite 1104/0 (--real e2e included, local data
present), clippy -D warnings clean, cargo doc clean; live acceptance:
introspect --params prints channel_length:I64 alone / window:I64 +
band.factor:F64.

Architect drift review over 68317ec..6e22c98 (two items, both fixed here;
code and ledger verified drift-clean):
- The authoring guide's 'Register and run' transcript still showed the
pre-regime world (2 cells, regime-less family ids) directly under the
worked example this cycle made two-regime / 4-cell. The transcript now
shows the -r1 family-id suffix, per-cell regime fields (ordinal 0
serialize-skipped, the established byte-stability pattern), the four
cells, per-regime generalization entries, and a prose paragraph tying
the 4 cells to the validate count (regimes compared, never pooled).
- The fresh glossary entry declared 'Avoid: stop regime' while this very
cycle ships 'stop regimes' in its hint strings and guide prose — an
Avoid line the codebase itself violates records intent, not reality.
'stop regime' is dropped from Avoid ('risk section' stays: it wrongly
suggests a section rather than an axis list).
What holds (architect): content-id parity untouched (probe is read-only,
canonical bytes unchanged); the validate cell product mirrors the exec
cross-product exactly; all six spec acceptance criteria shipped.
Regression: cargo test --workspace 62 result groups / 0 failures; clippy
-D warnings clean; cargo doc 0 warnings (all at 6e22c98; this commit is
docs-only).
closes#216
The remaining introspection e2e pins: the bare-{} envelope probe (the
issue's exact reproduction) lists the optional risk slot; a bound
(non-empty) risk list closes it (no open slots); an EXPLICIT empty
'risk': [] still counts as open (pins the non-emptiness branch, which an
is_none()-based probe would get wrong); the --block std::risk assert is
sharpened to pin the optional rendering and the block doc line (the old
bare contains("risk") matched std::risk trivially).
Docs: the authoring guide's bare-{} transcript gains the risk line, the
§3 worked example gains a two-regime risk section (heading updated), a
prose paragraph explains the structural risk axis (stop defines R;
absent = the same default vol regime the verbs bind), and both validate
transcripts show the new matrix counts. The glossary gains the
'risk regime' entry (canonical term; avoid: stop regime, risk section).
Verified: cargo test --workspace 62 result groups / 0 failures; clippy
-D warnings clean; cargo doc 0 warnings; the guide's transcript strings
grep-match the shipped hint/summary bytes (1/2/1).
Cycle-close audit for the verb-axis-generalization cycle (a2294c7,
e7efe1f, b849bb7). Architect drift review: what holds — all four verbs
route through the one validate_and_register_axes seam into the campaign
executor; RGrid gone workspace-wide; zero too_many_arguments allows in
verb_sugar.rs; no r_sma_open embed at the verb dispatch sites (the
aura-graph default embed survives by design). Five drift items found,
all resolved fix-path in this commit:
- README (blueprint-verbs section + mc row), glossary (walk-forward
entry), and ledger (verb-dissolution passage) reconciled to the
shipped generic grammar; the ledger HISTORY note now separates the
two supersessions correctly (#159 retired the built-in --strategy
demo surface; #220 de-welded the verbs) instead of mis-attributing
the weld removal to #159.
- Four stale characterization doc-comments in cli_run.rs reworded:
the retired welded grammar is now named as the pinned grades'
provenance, not the current spelling; one dangling reference to a
deleted test repointed to the live anchor.
- The quadruplicated dispatch blocks extracted into two shared helpers
beside validate_and_register_axes: exit_axis_register_error (the
AxisRegisterError exit-map, byte-identical stderr + exit codes) and
campaign_window_ms (from_choice -> full_window -> unix-ms clip);
generalize's explicit unclipped (Some, Some) passthrough arm is
untouched — only its fallback arm, which already ran the identical
mechanics, calls the helper.
Regression gate green, no baseline moved (nothing to ratify):
cargo test --workspace exit 0, 62 test-result groups, 0 failures;
clippy --workspace --all-targets -D warnings clean; cargo doc
--workspace --no-deps 0 warnings. Spent cycle spec + plan working

Cycle-close audit tidy for the #159 demo-retirement arc: behaviour-free
reword of prose/comments/docs left pointing at symbols the arc deleted.
Adversarially verified by the audit workflow; cargo build --workspace
--all-targets green.
- README: drop the removed `--harness` token; restrict the legacy built-in
form claim to walkforward/mc/generalize (run/sweep no longer resolve one).
- glossary: the built-in `--strategy` sweep surface is retired (#159), not a
live inline path.
- INDEX.md ledger: append [HISTORY] supersession markers (house style) to the
dated realization notes advertising the retired `--harness` / built-in
`--strategy` CLI forms (cost-flag #153, cycles 0065/0066/0067, name-res,
#210 status); historical text preserved.
- aura-engine test-fixture docs: drop dead cross-crate refs to the deleted
aura-cli fns sample_harness / build_sample and the deleted `macd` composite.
- cli_run.rs: reword the #159-cut-2 pin doc to the current clap generic-usage
reality (no strategy_from / Strategy::RBreakout); r_sma_sweep_family ->
blueprint_sweep_family.
- verb_sugar.rs: fix the pre-existing `E[R]` unresolved-doc-link warning.
Remaining tidy — the main.rs comment cluster plus its rustdoc link at :1546
(the second cargo-doc warning) — held for a follow-up issue. The dead
cost-graph branch is tracked in #221. refs #159
The verb-dissolution STATUS paragraph read "cycle 0110 dissolved the first verb
… Remaining: generalize, walkforward, and mc's R-bootstrap path" — stale at HEAD,
where all four verbs are dissolved. The per-cycle audits were each scoped to
their own commit range, so the cumulative status line lagged; the milestone
close fieldtest (#210, 2026-07-07) surfaced the drift.
Refresh the paragraph to the completed state, and record the per-verb
dissolved-form asymmetry as intended scope (ratify): for sweep the dissolved
form is the blueprint file (`<bp.json> --real`) while `aura sweep --strategy
r-sma --real` stays the inline built-in path — the built-in `--strategy` demo
surface is #159's hard-wired-harness retirement target, not the dissolution's;
for generalize/walkforward/mc the dissolved form is `--strategy r-sma --real`.
Glossary: note in the sweep and walk-forward entries that the CLI verbs are now
thin sugar over the campaign path.

Authoring guide §1: the inline SMA-crossover op-script no longer binds
fast/slow lengths — it is byte-identical to the corpus file it claims
to match (content id 597d719b… verified against the binary), and the
previously unwritten rule is stated: an op-script bind pins a param
OUT of the sweepable space (closed — no campaign axis or --axis can
reopen it). New passage + example distinguishing the raw param-space
namespace (--params, campaign-document axes) from the wrapped
--list-axes/--axis surface; glossary sweep entry carries the same
one-sentence distinction.

Architect review (scope e7c7bde..b7aaa0b) found three items; resolutions:

in campaign_run.rs (wrapped_to_raw_axis + raw_matches_wrapped, a
cross-documented inverse pair; dispatch_sweep and both bind sites
call through it; inverse-property unit test). Ratify note: this
unifies two previously different algorithms onto the documented
first-segment semantics — the old loose ends_with suffix-match also
accepted sub-segment shorthands (e.g. axis "length" against
"sma_signal.fast.length") that no stored document or test used;
such shorthands now refuse loudly (unbound/unknown axis) instead of
matching, the refuse-don't-guess reading of #203.
- carry: run_blueprint_sweep/blueprint_sweep_family remain generically
real-capable though the dispatch no longer routes real data to them;
the residual capability is shared DataSource machinery, its removal
falls out with the built-in/synthetic branch retirement (#159), and
the synthetic-only status is documented at the fn.
What holds: C24 canonical form (flatten group leaves every stored
content id unchanged, golden pin untouched), C18 lineage (topology_hash
IS content_id_of, single store write resolves the strategy ref;
selection-free arm still persists the full family), C25 closed-
vocabulary discipline (all-or-nothing group, Blockly-clean), C3 (ms/ns
conversion through the ingest seam's own named fn).
Ledger: #109 open-thread status lifted to cycles 0107-0110 reality
(executor shipped, amendment package landed, verb dissolution running
as milestone #210 with sweep dissolved).

refs #210
MILESTONE VERDICT: GREEN — the whole span (0106-0109) holds end to
end as one continuous consumer scenario: authored from a bare {} via
introspection alone, every ref resolved from the public surface, three
validation tiers, run by content id over two real instruments through
the full v2 pipeline, realization recorded (selection/survivors/
bootstrap/generalizations/trace_name), traces on disk and charted,
read back via campaign runs, byte-identical re-runs (C1), refusals
precise. 0 bugs, 0 frictions, 0 spec gaps; 2 doc-gaps.
F7 fixed in this commit (the docs claimed an archive-root path without
naming the key; a guessed [paths] archive silently no-ops): project-
layout and the glossary Aura.toml entry now name [paths] data, and the
aura new template advertises the commented-out key. F8 (op-script
grammar not CLI-discoverable) filed as #208, sibling of the #197 docs
half — one docwriter pass once desired.
The milestone-close gate evidence is this corpus; the formal milestone
close and the push remain user-reserved.
refs #189
Architect verdict: drift_found — the code holds (C1 honored not
assumed: the nominee re-run's metrics-equality hard refusal; C22/C14
clean: existing TraceStore + unchanged viewer, serde-default widening
round-trips, name composition single-sourced in derive_trace_name).
Resolved here:
- C18: the 0107 paragraph's 'persist_taps is deferred' points forward;
new cycle-0109 realization paragraph records the closed tap
vocabulary + UnknownTap tier, the nominee-only non-reduce re-run
with the C1 metrics guard, the campaign trace family layout, the
trace_name claim contract, the loud-skip lines, and the noted
chart-over-family-root debt.
- Glossary: tap entry names the closed vocabulary + escalation rule;
campaign document's presentation clause references it; campaign run
gains the trace_name pointer.
- Debt fixed inline (architect med): tap_channel gains the
emit_vocabulary-twin debug_assert cross-pin so a fifth vocabulary
tap fails loudly instead of silently skipping.
The consumed 0108 fieldtest spec is removed with the cycle's spec+plan
(all its dispositions shipped: F6 #205, F8 #207, F11 #206, F7/F9/F10
doc-tightens).

The std::monte_carlo block doc now names the position-dependent
semantics (pooled OOS after wf / per-survivor otherwise) and the > 0
execution guard the generic u32 slot hint could not carry; the
std::generalize block doc names campaign scope, the >= 2-instrument
need, and the R-expectancy metric family. Glossary: new 'stage
bootstrap' entry defines the realization payload incl. prob_le_zero;
the campaign-run entry gains the generalizations schema and the
stdout-wrapper-vs-bare-store-line note. Introspection text and
glossary only — no document content id moves.
Gates: workspace green, clippy clean.

Architect verdict: drift_found — the expected pre-audit doc lag; the
code holds (C1: doc-seeded bootstrap + BTreeMap-ordered generalize;
C14/C23 sparse widening pinned by the pre-0108-line parse test;
terminal-annotator dataflow confirmed — nothing flows out, no new
emit kind, no content-id movement). All items resolved here:
- C18: 0107's 'refuse loudly at preflight' points forward; new
cycle-0108 realization paragraph records the v2 shape, the
dual-input stage bootstrap, campaign-scope generalize, the tier
boundary (test-pinned on both sides), the record widenings, and
the stringly wf-detection debt.
- Glossary: campaign document -> v2 shape; bootstrap and Monte-Carlo
entries disambiguate the three senses (construction vs statistical
r_bootstrap vs seed axis — the std::monte_carlo stage IS the
trade-sequence bootstrap, named for r_bootstrap's arguments);
generalize gains the campaign-scope realization.

Architect verdict: drift_found — the code holds its contracts (C1
determinism incl. lowest-index fault attribution and doc-seeded
deflation; C16 seam: aura-campaign excludes ingest/std/composites,
MemberRunner isolates the condemned CLI scaffolding; the walk_forward
lockstep set moved together), the docs lagged the tree. All six drift
items resolved in this commit:
- C18: 'no executor exists' retired (0106 text now points forward);
new cycle-0107 realization records the executor, the aura-campaign
home, ListSpace, the campaign_runs.jsonl sibling store, zero-survivor
exit-0 semantics, emit/persist_taps split, the #196 on-ramp, and the
machinery-true std::walk_forward correction.
- C16: aura-campaign added to the non-node crate enumeration
(cycle-0107 realization; explicitly not C21's World).
- Glossary: campaign document entry corrected (run verb, execution
prose); new 'campaign run' entry; blueprint entry gains the on-ramp
verbs.
Carry-on debt (self-noted in code, tracked): metric-roster
triplication #190, deflation-constant duplication #199; cross-cell
fault orphans + nested-parallelism oversubscription noted in the
tasks-6-7 commit body. Follow-ups filed on the milestone: #200
(mc/generalize stage execution), #201 (persist_taps wiring).
Regression: cargo test --workspace 987/0; clippy -D warnings clean;

C25 (new): the nine authoring roles cut by artifact + surface + iteration
cost, the recognizability test, the 6a/6b split on invariant 12's tier
boundary with the id machinery as interface, the text-first/headless-first
invariant (visual surfaces = stateless projections, viewers over editors),
and the Blockly litmus test as every vocabulary's acceptance criterion.
C20: the 'plain Rust loops, not a config schema' clause and the mini-DSL
forbid are scoped — they forbid an open logic-bearing language, not the
closed-vocabulary campaign document that now carries experiment intent
under the P1 construct tier; generators may stay Rust, what they yield is
data.
C22: stateless-projection refinement generalized to all artifact classes;
the shipped face recorded as the web-from-disk front. Glossary playground
entry aligned (the egui-native wording was stale against the 2026-06
revision).
CLAUDE.md invariant 10: clarified that closed-vocabulary data artifacts
(op-scripts, blueprints, process/campaign documents) are not the forbidden
DSL — RustAst failed as an open logic-bearing language; new logic
escalates to a Rust block, never a freetext hole.
All content ratified on #188 (body + addenda + resolution comments); this
commit is production of the durable record, no new design.

Architect drift review (holds: C14 headless authoring, C16/C17 no-DSL with
aura-research a true leaf, content-id move behaviour-preserving per the
untouched id goldens). Resolution per item:
- fix (docs): C18 gains the cycle-0106 realization note (processes/ +
campaigns/ stores, document canonical form, the content-id primitive's
library home, the referential tier, no-executor status); the #109
analysis-meta-level open thread records the artifact half shipped v1 and
what stays open (executor question, verb dissolution 'once it carries',
the remaining #188 amendment package). Glossary: new campaign document +
process document entries; content id generalized to all three artifact
classes; experiment marked superseded by the campaign document (#188
re-cut of the builder-API thread).
- fix (code): the --unwired guide advertised an identity_id process ref
that validate_campaign refuses — the process.ref open-slot hint now says
content-id-only (strategy refs keep both); lib + seam pins updated.
- filed forward: #190 (metric-vocabulary single-sourcing, the 0105 roster
drift class), #191 (identity-ref store scan is O(store), performance
only).
- carry-on: regression gates green by hand — cargo test --workspace 916/0,
clippy -D warnings clean, cargo doc --no-deps 0 warnings; no baseline to
ratify (project has no metric baseline scripts).
Cycle 0106 spec and plan retired per convention (git rm); durable record
is the ledger notes above plus #188/#189.
refs #189
Two doc-tightenings from the green milestone fieldtest (F3, F6 in
fieldtests/milestone-project-environment/FINDINGS.md): the glossary
manifest entry now names the topology hash and the project provenance
block {namespace, dylib_sha256, commit} a project-hosted run carries;
project-layout.md's Aura.toml annotation now matches what the scaffold
actually emits today ([paths] runs only — the data archive root joins
once real data enters).
refs #180
A research project is now a loadable external cdylib crate. Inside a
directory whose ancestry holds an Aura.toml, aura discovers the project
root cargo-style, locates the compiled dylib via cargo metadata (debug
default, --release opt-in), loads it load-and-hold, and refuses
mismatches before trusting anything: the AURA_PROJECT descriptor
(aura-core::project, #[repr(C)]) carries a C-ABI stamp prefix (rustc +
aura-core version, baked per consuming build by the new aura-core
build.rs) validated before any Rust-ABI field is read. The vocabulary
charter gates the merged resolution: project type ids are ::-namespaced
(std stays bare), duplicates refuse, and the enumerable type-id list
must agree with the resolver, so introspection can never silently omit
a project type.
All blueprint verbs resolve through the merged project + std vocabulary
via a per-invocation Env threaded through the dispatch chains;
registry, trace-store, and data paths anchor at the project runs root
(Aura.toml [paths], paths-only by design — instrument geometry stays
the recorded sidecar, C15). RunManifest gains the Tier-1 project
provenance field (namespace + dylib sha256 + best-effort commit),
stamped beside topology_hash on the blueprint-run paths; pre-0102
registry lines load unchanged. Default node names strip the namespace,
so :: never reaches the param-path address space.
Proven by the demo-project fixture (built by the e2e via cargo,
path-dep on this workspace): run twice bit-identical, provenance
recorded, introspection lists demo::* beside std, registry anchors at
the discovered root from a subdirectory; the badcharter fixture proves
the charter refusal through the real libloading path; a never-built
project refuses with a cargo-build hint. Outside a project every path
collapses to the previous literals — goldens and manifest pins
byte-identical.
Verification: cargo build --workspace clean; cargo test --workspace 862
passed / 0 failed (incl. 7 project_load e2e); clippy -D warnings clean
(one precedent-matching allow(too_many_arguments) on run_oos_blueprint,
whose arity the Env threading raised to 8); doc build unchanged.
Docs/ledger aligned: Aura.toml field lists are paths-only in
project-layout.md, glossary, C16/C17; new C13 realization note records
the per-invocation-reload reading and the load-and-hold one-shot scope
boundary.
New deps, per-case review (aura-cli leaf binary only, never the frozen
artifact): libloading, toml.

The stage1 ordinal has been dead vocabulary since the C10 reframe dropped
the two-stage research model: a 1 structurally implies a 2 that no longer
exists. The family is renamed by its live discriminator - the R yardstick -
with members named by their signal, uniform with their signal-named
siblings (sma, macd, momentum):
- selectors: stage1-r -> r-sma, stage1-breakout -> r-breakout,
stage1-meanrev -> r-meanrev (old tokens are usage errors, exit 2 - no
silent alias)
- identifiers: Strategy::RSma/RBreakout/RMeanRev, HarnessKind::RSma,
r_sma_*/r_breakout_*/r_meanrev_*, wrap_r, run_signal_r, RGrid, R_SMA_*
- persisted identity: the sma_signal composite (param prefix
sma_signal.fast.length / .slow.length; fixtures regenerated; content-ids
shift - no test pins a literal hash, the registry parses no record names)
- e2e test files git-mv'd to r_sma_e2e / r_breakout_e2e / r_meanrev_e2e
- dead Stage-1/Stage-2 prose reworded to post-C10 vocabulary across
rustdoc, Cargo.tomls, ledger live lines, and the glossary (historical
entries stay; fieldtests corpus untouched)
- CLAUDE.md invariant 7 rewritten to record the ratified C10 reframe
faithfully (the token-swap alone would have laundered the retired
gated-currency/realistic-broker design into unmarked live prose); the
unbacked account-mode clause dropped
Verification: cargo build/test --workspace green (51 targets), clippy
-D warnings clean, doc build clean, acceptance grep gate leaves exactly
the one resampling-stage false positive (harness.rs), smoke: --harness
r-sma runs, --harness stage1-r exits 2 with the new usage line.

+ implementation-phase comments).

Three polish items surfaced by the World/C21 milestone fieldtest:
- A sweep of a fully-bound (closed) blueprint is refused up front with a clear
"this blueprint is fully bound; nothing to sweep" message — the symmetric
inverse of blueprint_mc_family's closed-blueprint guard — instead of leaking a
misleading UnknownKnob for a knob that is not unknown but bound out.
blueprint_sweep_family's error contract widens to String; the sweep terminal's
BindError (a genuine unknown/kind-mismatch axis) still surfaces verbatim.
- mc reproduce lines now carry each member's seed=<N> label. Monte-Carlo members
hold no tuning params, so the member label was blank; the seed is each draw's
realization identity. Sweep / walk-forward labels (which echo params) unchanged.
- docs (design ledger + glossary): state that every open knob --list-axes prints
is mandatory on sweep / walkforward — a subset is refused with the missing knob
named (BindError::MissingKnob), there is no default; pin a knob you do not want
to vary with a single-value axis.
RED-first for the two behaviour items. One existing unknown-axis E2E is re-pointed
from the closed fixture (which now hits the new "nothing to sweep" pre-check) to
the open fixture; it still exercises UnknownKnob("nope") specifically — resolve
raises UnknownKnob in phase 1 before MissingKnob in phase 2 — so the property is
preserved, not weakened.

Reconcile 68 terms against algotrading frameworks (LEAN, NautilusTrader,
backtrader, VectorBT, Zipline), quant-validation literature (Van Tharp,
Bailey & Lopez de Prado, White), and stream/dataflow vocabulary. Conservative
pass: extend Avoid lists with industry synonyms/homonyms and fold short
disambiguation notes into definitions; no canonical headings renamed.
Touched 18 entries. Avoid additions: overfit probability (PBO/CSCV), signal
(entry/exit signal, trade signal), position table (transactions, trade
blotter), conviction-based risk allocation (risk budgeting/parity/
contribution), run registry (model registry), session node (session window),
sign-agreement (market breadth). Disambiguation notes: broker vs fill/account
simulator, edge (wiring/trading/deploy senses), cycle (clock step vs DAG
loop), manifest vs Cargo.toml config, experiment vs MLflow container,
run-count (version counter), bias vs statistical bias, bootstrap vs
statistical bootstrap, deflated score anchored on the Deflated Sharpe Ratio,
Monte-Carlo (input not trade sequence), World vs Unreal UWorld.
Deferred (out of scope this pass): heading renames, a new `record` entry +
composite sense-split, the playground egui->web wording, the SoA Avoid line.
Record-reality add: 'tap' is in consistent use across the code
(ColumnarTrace.tap, the --tap flag, the equity/exposure/net_r_equity/
r_equity taps) and the design ledger, but had no glossary entry. The
entry also draws the line the 'tap/sink' shorthand blurs: a sink is
the recording-role node, a tap is the named stream it records.
Follows the C10 rework (29cdc8c). C15: the deploy-grade geometry fields now defer
to the cost model's currency→R normalization / the live deploy edge, not the
retired Stage-2 realistic broker. Glossary: "realistic broker" and "Stage 1 /
Stage 2" marked superseded (kept as history); bias/broker/equity-stream/position-
table/R/R-metrics/R-evaluator/RiskExecutor/Sizer/sim-optimal-broker/veto reworked
to the cost-model-in-R model; added cost model, gross R, net R, net-R equity
curve, conviction-based risk allocation.
Resolves the four non-bug findings from the inferential-validation milestone
fieldtest (the bug — the broken-pipe panic — is fixed in 1088320):
- [friction] generalize refusals now carry a reason instead of a bare usage dump:
<2 instruments, a multi-value candidate flag, a missing knob, a duplicate
symbol, and a non-stage1-r strategy each get a one-line why (mirroring the
R-only metric refusal). Two parser tests strengthened to pin the message.
- [friction] --select <argmax|plateau:mean|plateau:worst> added to the
walkforward branch of the global USAGE (aura --help) — the plateau objective
was undiscoverable from the only help the CLI prints (the per-subcommand usage
already carried it).
- [spec_gap] C1 gains a scope note: bit-identity is per-run; a derived metric
recomputed by two different command paths may differ by floating-point
reassociation (<=1 ULP), which is not a C1 violation — ratifies the
fieldtester's reading of the sweep-vs-generalize sqn difference.
- [spec_gap] the milestone vocabulary is added to docs/glossary.md:
cross-instrument generalization, deflated score, overfit probability,
neighbourhood score, plateau selection, sign-agreement, worst-case floor.
The fieldtest triage spec (docs/specs/fieldtest-*) is removed now its findings
are resolved; the tracked fieldtests/ scenario corpus stays.
Verified: cargo test --workspace green (0 failed), clippy --workspace
--all-targets -D warnings clean; `aura --help` shows --select; the refusals
print their reason.

Architect audit clean (no drift, no debt): raw sqn verified bit-identical,
C18 serde back-compat + C4 SoA seam + C1 determinism + Part-B symmetry all hold.
- Ledger C10: add a "Realization (cycle 0067, #130 + #135)" note — SQN100 as
the turnover-robust opt-in rank key (raw sqn / default ranker byte-unchanged,
serde(default) for back-compat), and per-member --trace now symmetric across
all three sweep strategies via the shared persist_traces_r.
- Glossary: R-metrics list gains sqn_normalized; the SQN entry documents the
SQN100 variant (was "deferred #130").
- Remove the ephemeral spec + plan (cycle closed; rationale lives in the ledger
and git history).
refs #130, refs #135
Cycle 0066 (#133) closed. The close audit (architect) found the family ratified against C12 axis-2 (rank-by-metric over the C18 family store) and the C10 R framing, with one [high] gap (swept-member manifest omitted the fixed R-defining params) fixed forward in 499121e.
- Ledger: a C10 realization note records the durable rationale -- SQN as the single-number sweep objective, the signal-only grid (the stop defines R, so varying it breaks cross-member SQN comparability -- the SQN100 #130 motivation), the R-metric rank vocabulary, and the manifest-completeness fix.
- Glossary: new 'R metrics' and 'SQN' entries.
- The ephemeral spec + plan are removed; the ledger + git history are the durable record.
Follow-ups filed: #135 (per-member --trace for the stage1-r sweep). refs #133
Adopt the R-reframe ratified in #117: the strategy's native unit is risk
(R), not pips/dollars, and its primary output is a directional bias.
- exposure -> bias: the primary output is an UNSIZED direction + conviction
`f64 in [-1,+1]`; sizing and the protective stop leave the strategy.
- Signal quality is measured in R (Stage 1): an R-evaluator integrates the
per-trade R-outcomes of a flat-1R RiskExecutor into R-expectancy. R is
defined by the stop, account-/instrument-agnostic; pips retired as the unit.
Flat-1R needs no equity, so Stage 1 is feed-forward (no cycle).
- Risk-based execution is a decoupled layer: a RiskExecutor composite
(stop-rule -> Sizer -> Veto -> position-management) per symbol, nested in a
Broker/Account composite; account mode (netting/hedging) = composition
constraint. "Sizer" is not "risk-manager" (that names the Veto layer).
- Currency P&L is Stage 2 (fixed-fractional, compounding). The only feedback
(equity -> Sizer) is cut by a z^-1 register on the fill edge (mark-to-market
stays a same-cycle price read), encapsulated in the executor; flat-1R vs
compounding is a structural axis (the explicit register is mandatory because
C23 reorders the flat graph).
- Position-event table stays the decoupled Stage-2 audit layer = first
difference of the book (deal = target - book - in_flight); the flawed 0064
exposure-integral derive is abandoned.
Touches: ledger C10 + CLAUDE.md domain invariant #7 + glossary (adds bias, R,
R-evaluator, RiskExecutor, Sizer, veto, Stage 1/2; revises broker, exposure
stream, position table, sim-optimal broker, strategy, ...). Also fixes
cross-file drift surfaced by adversarial review (C20 guarantee + front-matter
provenance still claimed "exposure stream"; cross-refs corrected to
C9/C19/C20/C23). Industry-grounded against LEAN / nautilus_trader / backtrader
/ QSTrader / vectorbt / zipline.
refs #117
Scalar was `struct { kind: ScalarKind, cell: Cell }` — "a Cell wearing a kind hat." The recorded reason for that shape was migration ease, which is not a design rationale (CLAUDE.md: rationale != effort), so the struct had no substantive defense. Redefine it as the native tagged union it conceptually is:
enum Scalar { I64(i64), F64(f64), Bool(bool), Timestamp(Timestamp) }
This is substantively better on four axes: kind/bits skew becomes unrepresentable (illegal states gone); accessors panic loudly on the wrong variant instead of a release-mode silent bit reinterpret; PartialEq derives the documented IEEE-754 / cross-kind value semantics (the hand-roll, needed only because the struct inherited Cell's bitwise compare, is gone); and serde is a plain derive emitting the externally-tagged wire form ({"I64":10}/{"F64":2.5}) — the private ScalarRepr shadow enum that motivated this was never needed. It is also C7-honest: erased-on-the-hot-path (Cell) and self-describing-at-the-edge (Scalar) are two disjoint types bridged by explicit conversion.
The whole public API is preserved (Scalar's fields were private), so call sites do not churn: the enum change is contained to scalar.rs, where cell() now encodes and from_cell() decodes per kind. Cell and ScalarKind are untouched.
With Scalar serializable, lift RunManifest.params from Vec<(String, f64)> to Vec<(String, Scalar)>: the param's kind (an i64 length vs an f64 scale) now survives into the C18 record (runs.jsonl) and the CLI JSON instead of collapsing to f64. scalar_as_param_f64 is deleted; sim_optimal_manifest passes typed params through. This is a deliberate wire-shape change — params now render as tagged scalars; the JSON-asserting tests are updated to the new shape on purpose.
Hand-authored manifest params across the CLI's single-run/mc/macd sites use honest kinds (lengths -> i64, scales -> f64) so they match the sweep path (which already derives correct kinds via zip_params); their in-binary JSON assertions are re-tagged accordingly.
Walk-forward fork resolves with no code change: WindowRun.chosen_params stays Vec<Scalar> (the serializable record carrier), reduced to f64 only at the param_stability statistic boundary (scalar_as_f64 retained). Glossary 'cell' entry updated to describe Scalar as the disjoint tagged union, not 'a cell plus its kind tag'.
Gates: build --all-targets, test --workspace (incl. new scalar_serde_round_trips), clippy -D warnings, doc --no-deps — all clean.
cycle 0047 tidy. Architect drift review (b188773..82635fa, against the
design ledger C7/C8/C1) found the carrier swap drift-clean:
- Node::eval -> Option<&[Cell]>, all 8 aura-std out-buffers [Cell; N], the
inter-node forward via the branch-free push_cell (harness.rs:426); Scalar
survives only on the three keep-set boundaries (param plane,
AnyColumn::get, source ingestion at harness.rs:402). The convert/keep
partition and the three-role test rule are honoured site-for-site.
- The dual API is coherent: fallible push (ingestion + kind-guard tests)
vs infallible push_cell (bootstrap-verified inter-node forward) are each
load-bearing and tested. No dead code, no C7 violation (no tag on the hot
path; scratch: Vec<Cell> reused via clear(), no per-cycle alloc).
- Both C7 realization notes + the C8 prose accurately describe the landed
state. 285 tests green; build/clippy/test/doc clean.
Tidy fix (pre-existing, surfaced by the review):
- docs/glossary.md `node` entry said a node implements `schema()`, but
Node::schema() was removed in cycle 0024 (the signature is declared
pre-build on PrimitiveBuilder). Corrected to `lookbacks()` + `eval(ctx)`,
the methods the Node trait actually carries. Record-reality.
