feat(0070): streaming sink reductions — finalize hook + folding sinks (#138)
M3 machinery for BLOCKER #138: sink reductions can now fold online instead of buffering every per-cycle row to an unbounded channel. - aura-core: additive `Node::finalize` end-of-stream hook (default no-op) + `SeriesFold` online accumulator (last / max_drawdown / sign_flips). - aura-engine: `Harness::run` calls `finalize` once per node in topo order after the source loop; `summarize` refactored to drive `SeriesFold` (byte-identical), the now-dead `sign0` removed. - aura-std: `GatedRecorder` (emits only gated rows + the final row on finalize) and `SeriesReducer` (folds one f64 series, emits one summary row on finalize), both emitting the `Recorder` channel type — no aura-engine dependency. - Integration tests: folded reductions are byte-for-byte equal to the raw-recorder path; the R-reduction's peak memory is O(trades), independent of cycle count. Ratified two off-plan fixes the implementer made in the tests (both plan defects, not code defects): the GatedRecorder correctly flushes the final non-gated row on finalize, so the retained count is K_TRADES + 1; and the heterogeneous PM record needs kind-correct zero scalars (a blanket f64 zero is rejected by the kind-typed AnyColumn::push). Wiring these reducers into the stage1-r sweep (the actual O(cycles)->O(trades) win) follows next. refs #138 |

feat(0068): position-event derive — book first-difference table (#115)
Add `derive_position_events(record, instrument_id) -> Vec<PositionEvent>` to aura-engine (report.rs), the broker-independent Stage-2 audit layer of C10: the first difference of the executed book derived from a PositionManagement dense record. A pure post-run reduction, sibling of summarize_r — same positional, type-erased Scalar read of the 14-column record, no in-graph node (the hot path stays domain-free, C14). A reversal emits Close then the opposite open at one event_ts (close first); a window-end open position emits its open with no synthetic Close (the table records actual executed events — unlike summarize_r, which force-closes for the R metric). instrument_id is a caller-supplied scalar (aura-engine depends only on aura-core; it cannot import InstrumentSpec). Two r_col indices added (DIRECTION=4, SIZE=10), the lockstep guard in stage1_r_e2e.rs extended to name-pin `direction`, and an agreement E2E folds both summarize_r and derive_position_events over one recorded ledger (one Close per closed round-trip; every open closed-or-open-at-end; referential integrity). Scope: the derive only. Fixed-fractional / currency / equity-feedback sizing is #116 (it owns the equity->Sizer z^-1 register per C10) — deferring it here avoids a circular dependency. Supersedes the rolled-back 0064 exposure-integral derive (abandoned per #117): this derives from the executed book, never exposure deltas. Verified by the orchestrator: cargo build + clippy --all-targets -D warnings clean; full workspace suite 0 failed; aura-engine lib 214 pass (incl. the 6 derive_* unit tests); stage1_r_e2e 11 pass (incl. the new E2E + extended guard).

feat(0067): SQN100 metric + stage1-r sweep --trace
Two additive follow-ups to the cycle-0065/0066 R-sweep surface. Part A (#130) — n-normalized SQN (SQN100): RMetrics gains sqn_normalized = (mean_R/stdev_R)·√(min(n,100)), a turnover-robust ranking objective comparable across sweep members with different trade counts. The raw sqn is kept byte-identical (computed sqrt(n)*mean/sd, NOT via a factored shared ratio, so the existing metric does not drift even by 1 ULP). The field carries #[serde(default)] for C18 back-compat (a pre-0067 r: block deserialises with sqn_normalized = 0.0). The registry learns Metric::SqnNormalized (opt-in; the default ranker and raw sqn are unchanged), so `runs family rank sqn_normalized` works. The 0066 single-run golden is re-baselined (the r: block gains the field; for n=3 ≤ 100 the cap is inactive so sqn_normalized == sqn). Part B (#135) — wire --trace for the stage1-r sweep: stage1_r_sweep_family now honours --trace, persisting each member's equity/exposure/r_equity under runs/traces/<n>/<member_key>/ via the existing persist_traces_r (mirroring momentum_sweep_family); the interim run_sweep refusal guard is dropped. --trace is now symmetric across all three sweep strategies and a swept member is chartable (chart <n>/<member> --tap r_equity). Tests: SQN100 cap / below-cap / empty + serde back-compat (engine); rank-by sqn_normalized + unknown-metric message (registry); an E2E guard that both SQN values fold from recorded records and agree below the cap (the cross-crate column seam); inverted stage1-r --trace persistence + a CLI rank-by- sqn_normalized integration. Full workspace suite green (527 passed, 0 failed); clippy --all-targets -D warnings clean. Derived fork decisions logged on #130 and #135 (cap = fixed const 100; opt-in metric, default ranker unchanged; serde(default); Part B mirrors momentum_sweep_family + reuses persist_traces_r). closes #130 closes #135 |

refactor(stage1-r): rename the strategy-output param namespace exposure -> bias
Complete the deferred rename tail from cycle 0065's #126 (which renamed only the typed metric, keeping the param namespace uniformly "exposure" so the single-run rename would not smuggle in a ~30-site sweep-pinned change). Now renamed together as one consistent unit, all driven by the Bias node's instance name: - Bias::builder().named("exposure") -> .named("bias") (the harness builders + the engine fixtures in test_fixtures.rs / blueprint.rs); - the derived knob path exposure.scale -> bias.scale (Composite::param_space derives the knob from the node name) -- the sweep .axis/.range bindings and .with() points (blueprint.rs, main.rs), the walkforward ParamSpecs (walkforward.rs), the member_key dir names, and the JSON byte-pins in cli_run.rs / report.rs / main.rs tests; - the exposure_scale manifest param label -> bias_scale (the single-run manifest builders + the streaming_seam / real_bars fixtures). The rename is surgical: the three targets (named("exposure"), exposure.scale, exposure_scale) are syntactically distinct from the deliberately-kept "exposure" forms, which are untouched -- SimBroker's pre-reframe exposure input slot + prev_exposure + the exposure-integral; the LongOnly / gate / latch ports named "exposure"; and the on-disk "exposure" tap label (the recorded bias series that feeds `chart --tap exposure`, decoupled from the node name via ColumnarTrace::from_rows("exposure", ...)). No on-disk back-compat break: the knob path is a runtime param address, and recorded params in old runs.jsonl / families.jsonl are inert data strings (a pre-existing recorded "exposure.scale" still loads, it is just data). INDEX.md cycle-0065 realization note amended: the param namespace is recorded as the now-completed tail; the SimBroker slot + the on-disk tap label remain the deliberate permanent keeps (#117), and exposure_sign_flips stays a serde alias. Verified: cargo build --workspace --all-targets clean; clippy --all-targets -D warnings clean; full suite 514 passed / 0 failed (source + byte-pins renamed together); live `aura run` emits "bias_scale", `aura sweep` emits "bias.scale". closes #134 refs #126 #117 |

feat(stage1-r): rename the exposure_sign_flips metric to bias_sign_flips (#126)
Complete the typed-field half of the exposure->bias rename - the one the cycle-0065
close audit flagged as aging worst (a serde-stable on-disk key).
- RunMetrics.exposure_sign_flips -> bias_sign_flips with
#[serde(alias = "exposure_sign_flips")], so legacy runs.jsonl still deserialises
(pinned by the legacy-read tests, which keep the old key); new output serialises
bias_sign_flips (the byte-pin tests updated to the new key).
- The registry rank metric: Metric::ExposureSignFlips -> BiasSignFlips, the rank
string accepts BOTH "bias_sign_flips" and "exposure_sign_flips" (CLI back-compat),
the error/listing updated; the rank tests exercise both names.
- The MC aggregate field renamed too (McAggregate is hand-rendered to JSON, not
serde-derived - no alias needed).
Scope held to the typed metric. The strategy-output PARAM NAMESPACE - the
.named("exposure") Bias instance, its exposure.scale knob path (Composite::param_space
derives the knob from the node name), and the exposure_scale manifest label - is a
coherent ~30-site, sweep-pinned surface (the implement loop correctly flagged renaming
the knob as an unscoped expansion touching walkforward + the cli_run byte-pins). Kept
uniformly as "exposure" and deferred to a follow-on so the cluster renames as one
consistent unit. SimBroker's pre-reframe exposure concept and the on-disk "exposure"
tap label stay by the #117 fork decision.
cargo test --workspace green; clippy --workspace --all-targets -D warnings clean; a
live `aura run --harness stage1-r` emits "bias_sign_flips".

audit(stage1-r): cycle-0065 close — ledger records the Stage-1 R signal-quality layer
Architect drift review of cycle 0065 (Stage-1 R: the exposure->bias rename, the
stop-rule + vol_stop, PositionManagement's dense R-record, the Sizer, summarize_r,
the public RiskExecutor, and the CLI surface): code is drift-clean - C10 fidelity
holds (bias->stop->Sizer->PositionManagement, flat-1R feed-forward, R stop-defined
and size-invariant, guarded by the cross-crate layout lockstep test), C9/C23
acyclic, the --harness selector is a compile-time match (no runtime registry/DSL,
C17). The milestone fieldtest is green after the tiny-pip tolerance fix (

refactor(stage1-r): name the conviction column conviction_at_entry
Rename the dense PositionManagement record's column 9 from `bias_at_entry_abs` to `conviction_at_entry` (FIELD_NAMES, the `r_col`/test index constants, the cross-crate layout guard, and the doc comments). Why: the column holds |bias| at entry, which C10 defines AS conviction (bias = direction + conviction magnitude; ledger INDEX.md ~458). The record already names the other half of that decomposition by its domain concept (`direction` = sign, not `bias_sign`), so naming the magnitude half mechanically (`bias_at_entry_abs`) was an inconsistency; `conviction_at_entry` speaks the ledger's ubiquitous language and parallels `direction`, while `_at_entry` preserves the frozen-snapshot precision. Considered and rejected: collapsing `(direction, bias_at_entry_abs)` into one signed `bias_at_entry` and dropping `direction` as redundant — it is not redundant. On a reversal row col 4 (`direction`) tracks the reopened leg while col 9 tracks the closed trade's entry conviction, so the two describe different trades and cannot be losslessly merged; they are also distinct semantic axes (current-position direction vs per-trade entry conviction). Scope: domain name at the data boundary, mechanical name internally — the internal `bias.abs()` variables (`Open.bias_abs`, the fold's `Trade.bias_abs`) keep their computation-faithful names, exactly the raw-internal / domain-external split the record uses elsewhere. Behaviour-preserving: cargo build --workspace clean; cargo test --workspace 500 passed, 0 failed (unchanged); clippy --all-targets -D warnings clean. The layout guard (`r_col_indices_match_producer_field_layout`) confirms the renamed string. refs #117 |

feat(stage1-r): Sizer + RiskExecutor + R-metric enrichment (iter 2)
Iteration 2 of cycle 0065 (Stage-1 R signal quality) — the node + metric layer. Builds on iter-1's PositionManagement dense R-record + core summarize_r. What ships: - PositionManagement gains a 4th `size` input (slot 3 -> col 10), fed by the Sizer. R is computed size-INVARIANTLY (pure stop-distance ratio), so size never touches realized_r — pinned by a RED test (scaling size leaves every realized_r unchanged) at the node and again end-to-end through the executor. - Sizer (aura-std): `size = risk_budget / stop_distance` — flat-1R (risk_budget 1.0 => one risk unit per trade, size inversely proportional to the stop, not a constant). Reads bias (firing/presence) + stop_distance; the Stage-2 fixed-fractional sizer slots in unchanged (swap risk_budget for risk_fraction*equity, same node shape). - summarize_r enrichment: SQN (sqrt(n)*mean_R/sample-stdev_R; n<2 or zero-variance -> 0), conviction_terciles_r (E[R] by |bias_at_entry| tercile), net_expectancy_r (gross minus one round-trip cost per trade, charged in R via the latched_dist recovered from the entry_price/stop_price columns). summarize_r gains a `round_trip_cost` param (price units). The net-of-cost recovery is tested through the real producer->consumer seam, not just hand-built rows. - RunMetrics.r: Option<RMetrics> with #[serde(default, skip_serializing_if = "Option::is_none")] — legacy runs.jsonl (no `r` key) deserialise to None and a pip-only run's on-disk shape stays byte-unchanged (C14/C18 back-compat). Every RunMetrics literal threaded (report.rs, aura-registry, aura-engine/mc). - RiskExecutor (aura-engine integration-test fixture, sibling of vol_stop_composite): FixedStop -> Sizer -> PositionManagement behind open bias+price input roles, price fanned to both the stop and PM, the Sizer's size into PM. Bias is produced in-graph from the single price source (a second bias *source* would k-way-merge into separate cycles and mark stale prices). The Veto is a DOCUMENTED SEAM, not a runtime node (a pass-through identity is what C19/C23 DCE deletes). Tests: the composite bootstraps + runs + folds to the documented hand value; R invariant under risk_budget while the size column scales; a live-folded RMetrics survives the RunMetrics serde round-trip. The dense-record size column (10) is brought under the cross-crate layout guard (stage1_r_e2e r_col_indices_match_producer_field_layout) so the executor fixture's size-invariance read is drift-protected like the others. Scope: the CLI/recording surface (#129) is sub-split into a separate iteration 3 and is NOT in this commit. Verified: cargo build --workspace clean; cargo test --workspace 500 passed, 0 failed; cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -D warnings clean. refs #117 #127 #128 #129 |

feat(stage1-r): bias rename + stop-rule + position-management + summarize_r (iter 1)
Iteration 1 of the Stage-1 "R-based signal quality" cycle (spec 0065): a strategy's signal quality, measured in R on its unsized bias stream, feed-forward. New discrete-trade machinery, NOT a SimBroker extension. What lands: - exposure -> bias (refs #126): the Exposure node/type/file/output-field renamed to Bias (computation unchanged: clamp(signal/scale,-1,+1); the SEMANTICS change — the output is the unsized strategy bias, sizing leaves the strategy). Scoped to the semantic core; behaviour-preserving cosmetics are deferred (see below). - stop-rule nodes (refs #119): VolStop = k*EMA(|price - prev_price|) (one fused node; the volatility that defines 1R, close-to-close — true-range ATR deferred, needs OHLC) + FixedStop (constant, the test fixture / fixed-vs-vol structural-axis sibling). - PositionManagement (refs #127): the stateful heart. Latches the entry-cycle stop distance as the FROZEN R-denominator (never re-read), marks/exits no-look-ahead like SimBroker (a position earns from the next cycle; an exit realises against the cycle's close), and emits ONE dense per-cycle R-record (C8). Stop-outs are NOT capped at -1R (a gap through the stop realises R < -1 — the honest loss tail); R is computed size-invariantly (size = (exit-entry)*dir / latched_dist cancels). The trade ledger is the rows where closed_this_cycle; the R-equity is cum_realized + unrealized; a position open at window end is the last row (open=true) — explicit, never silent MtM. - summarize_r + RMetrics (refs #129): the post-run fold (NOT an in-graph node — recorders drain post-run). E[R], win-rate, profit-factor, avg win/loss R, by-trade max R-drawdown, n_open_at_end (window-end force-close). SQN / conviction terciles / net-of-cost / RunMetrics.r are iteration 2. Design adversarially hardened before implementation (12-juror refute panel; decisions on #117). Ratified implementer deviations from the plan snippet, verified by hand: - col-4 `direction` tracks the OPEN position at cycle end (window-end synthesis; names the reopened leg on a reversal), falling back to the closed trade's dir only when flat. summarize_r does not read col 4; the R-metrics are unaffected. - .named("exposure") kept on the 4 previously-unnamed Bias nodes so the auto-derived param-path stays exposure.scale (no manifest/dir-name drift) — the unnamed nodes would otherwise flip to bias.scale. - intra-doc links [`Exposure`] -> [`Bias`] in sim_broker/latch + the sample-model test pin (cosmetic, behaviour-neutral; broken intra-doc links fail cargo doc). - the E2E drives a full bootstrapped Harness (stronger than the plan's direct-node drive — exercises the real cross-crate producer->consumer seam). Deferred (behaviour-preserving, separate cosmetic pass — NOT this iteration): RunMetrics.exposure_sign_flips / Metric::ExposureSignFlips, SimBroker/LongOnly "exposure" input ports, the "exposure" tap/trace names, and the .named("exposure") instance labels. Iteration 2: the Sizer seam, the RiskExecutor composite (+ the Veto documented-seam), summarize_r enrichment, RunMetrics.r, and the CLI/recording surface. Verification (orchestrator-run, not agent-claimed): - cargo build --workspace: clean. - cargo test --workspace: all green, 0 failed (incl. the new bias/stop_rule/ position_management unit tests, the summarize_r arithmetic tests, and the stage1_r_e2e capstone + layout guard). - cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings: clean (exit 0). - Keystone RED tests pass: no_lookahead_bias_exit_realises_the_held_move, stop_out_is_not_capped_at_minus_one_r, no_gap_stop_is_exactly_minus_one_r, reversal_closes_one_leg_and_reopens, open_at_window_end_is_carried_on_the_last_row. refs #117 #119 #126 #127 #129 |

feat(broker-foundation): InstrumentSpec deploy metadata + PositionEvent schema
The realistic-broker milestone's (C10 A-side) two foundation value types — no broker, no derivation yet, fully tested. #113 — InstrumentSpec gains six deploy-grade fields (instrument_id, contract_size, pip_value_per_lot, min_lot, lot_step, quote_currency) and the vetted table is populated for GER40/FRA40/EURUSD/GBPUSD/USDCAD. The struct stays Copy (quote_currency is &'static str); the _ => None refuse-don't-guess arm is the permanent floor. This is the milestone's permanent authored floor (recorded-metadata tier is forward work, #124). #114 — PositionAction { Buy, Sell, Close } (closed enum, serde-encoded as a bare i64 0/1/2 via From/TryFrom) + PositionEvent in aura-engine beside RunMetrics, faithful to the C10 column spec: event_ts, action, position_id, instrument_id, unsigned volume; no open_ts; direction is the action (no signed-volume trick). Re-exported from the crate root. Derived fork decisions (recorded on #113): quote_currency &'static str; action as ordinal i64; stable instrument_id + overridable vetted values. Verified by the orchestrator: cargo test --workspace = 458 passed / 0 failed; clippy --all-targets -D warnings clean. An adversarial 4-lens review (ledger faithfulness, downstream soundness, serde/wire robustness, test honesty) returned 3 SOUND + 1 CONCERN: quote_currency &'static str cannot hold a runtime-sourced currency at the #124 resolver — not a blocker (#115/#116 read only the authored floor), logged on #124 as a deliberate deferred design choice. The implementer's deviation from the plan snippet (vec![..] -> [..]) avoids clippy::useless_vec; semantics identical. Two tester-authored consumer-boundary E2E tests added beyond the inline units: instrument_spec_deploy_metadata.rs (public resolution seam) and position_event_table.rs (persisted bare-int wire shape + reversal table). closes #113 #114 |

feat(trace-charts): persist recorder taps to disk (iter 1)
Iteration 1 (persist half) of the visual face — spec 0056 / plan 0055:
tap data from a graph and save it to disk so it can later be charted
(the serve/chart half is iteration 2).
- ColumnarTrace (aura-engine): a drained tap <-> columnar SoA form
({tap, kinds, ts, columns}); values coerced to f64 for plotting with
the base type preserved in `kinds` (C7); to_rows rebuilds uniformly-f64
rows for the serve-side join. Pure (C1), beside join_on_ts/summarize.
- TraceStore (aura-registry): a per-run directory under
runs/traces/<name>/ — one <tap>.json per tap + an index.json (manifest
+ tap order), beside the families.jsonl sibling store. Missing run =
NotFound (no panic); corrupt file = Parse{file}.
- CLI: a shared persist_traces helper threaded into run_sample /
run_macd / run_sample_real via an orthogonal `trace: Option<&str>`;
new arms `aura run [--macd] --trace <name>` and `--trace <name>` on
`run --real`. The default (no --trace) run is byte-for-byte unchanged.
Verified by the orchestrator: `cargo test --workspace` green (incl. the
4 columnar_trace, 3 trace_store, 4 cli_run e2e, and the 4-tuple
parse_real_args tests); `cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -D
warnings` exit 0. Implementer deviations folded in, all
compiler-prescribed: #[derive(Debug)] on RunTraces (the RED tests
panic-format a Result over it), #[allow(clippy::type_complexity)] on
the parse_real_args 4-tuple (mirrors the crate's sample_harness idiom).
Default-run byte-identity stays pinned by run_prints_json_and_exits_zero.

feat(aura-engine): join_on_ts — timestamp join for multi-tap sink traces
Ship a generic, spine-anchored join_on_ts helper + JoinedRow in the report layer (sibling of summarize/f64_field), re-exported from lib.rs. It fuses N recorded (Timestamp, Vec<Scalar>) tap streams on the recorded timestamp: exactly one JoinedRow per spine entry, each side looked up by ts as Some(row)/None where it did not fire. Option-per-side semantics keep the engine honest — it reports presence; the consumer interprets absence (the 0.0/-1/false defaults are consumer truths, not engine ones). C8/C18 (post-run reduction over recorded sink output), C3 (no in-graph join), C1 (one row per ts, documented precondition). Two unit tests pin the contract: cardinality-misalignment alignment (the #93 shape — a spine bar a side tap skipped resolves to None, not a zip-misalign) and the spine-anchored drop of a side row at a non-spine ts. RED accepted on the grounding-check record (both symbols were absent pre-cycle, so the tests are RED-by-construction) and verified green here. drain_trace's migration onto this helper + the Recorder doc note follow. refs #93 |

refactor(aura-core): Scalar as a native tagged enum, disjoint from Cell; typed RunManifest.params
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.

refactor(aura-core): split Scalar into a tag-free Cell + ScalarKind
Motivation
----------
`Scalar` was a tagged enum (I64/F64/Bool/Ts), so every scalar value
physically carried its own kind tag. But the kind is already known from
the schema/port/column the value flows through (C7: the type is a
property of the column, not of the value — the hot path is already
columnar `Column<T>`, and `AnyColumn::get` *reconstructs* the tag from
the column on the way out). The per-value tag was therefore redundant
with the kind the surrounding context already holds.
That redundancy had three costs:
* It baked an implicit `match` (a branch) into every function that read
a Scalar payload — even where the caller statically knew the type.
The tag could never be exploited away.
* Size: a tagged enum is tag + payload = 16 bytes (f64/i64 alignment),
twice the 8 bytes the value needs. A `Column<Scalar>` would be double
the memory and half the cache utilisation.
* It is the shared root of several downstream papercuts we keep hitting
— the lossy f64 manifest field, the `unreachable!` panic on a
non-numeric param, the serde-tag question — all symptoms of "the type
is baked into the value".
Change
------
Introduce `Cell`: a type-erased 64-bit word (`struct Cell(u64)`) that is
not readable without external type context. It is constructed per base
type (`from_i64/from_f64/from_bool/from_ts`) and read only by naming the
type at the call site (`i64()/f64()/bool()/ts()`) — each a branch-free
bit-cast. The hot path resolves the kind once at the boundary (from the
schema) and then reads natively, with no per-value branch. `Cell` knows
nothing of `Scalar` or `ScalarKind`; the dependency is strictly one-way,
and it lives in its own `cell.rs` (more is planned on top of it).
`Scalar` becomes `struct { kind: ScalarKind, cell: Cell }` — the
self-describing form for the dynamic boundaries (builder binding,
serialization, rendering), built on top of `Cell`. Its `as_*` accessors
now `debug_assert` the kind and return the native value (free in
release); calling the wrong accessor is a caller bug, not a checked
`Option`. The variant constructors `Scalar::I64(..)` become associated
fns `Scalar::i64(..)`.
`PartialEq` is hand-written (not derived) to preserve the former enum's
value semantics: kinds must match, then native payloads compare, so f64
keeps IEEE-754 behaviour (`NaN != NaN`, `+0.0 == -0.0`) and a kind
mismatch is never equal even when the raw words coincide. A fixture
(`scalar_eq_is_value_not_bitwise`) pins exactly the cases where bit- and
value-equality diverge, so it can't silently regress. `Cell`'s own
`Eq`/`Hash` stay bitwise — correct for a raw word.
The change is behaviour-preserving: Scalar's observable behaviour is
identical to the pre-Cell enum (the value-equality fixture proves it);
only the internal representation changed. The ~440 call sites across the
workspace are a mechanical constructor rename plus ~12 destructuring
sites (match-arms / `let`-patterns) rewritten to `kind()` + `as_*`.
Verified: cargo build --workspace --all-targets, cargo clippy --workspace
--all-targets -- -D warnings, cargo test --workspace — all green.

feat(aura-engine): Source ingestion seam — run() takes Vec<Box<dyn Source>>
The engine's ingestion input was the only type encoding an eager-dataflow
assumption: `Harness::run(Vec<Vec<(Timestamp, Scalar)>>)` — one fully
materialized stream per source. At realistic research scale (20y, 3 tick
streams, ~7.9e9 ticks) that layout is ~190 GB resident, non-residable. Yet
the merge loop never needs the whole stream: it only ever peeks the head
timestamp of each live source and pops one record. So the eager Vec is
gratuitous.
This lands the first half of the Source seam (plan Tasks 1-2):
- A `Source` trait (`peek(&self) -> Option<Timestamp>`,
`next(&mut) -> Option<(Timestamp, Scalar)>`), object-safe so the merge
holds `Vec<Box<dyn Source>>`. The peek/next split is the producer contract
the k-way merge drives.
- `VecSource`, an adapter over the old `Vec<(Timestamp, Scalar)>` — the
cycle-0011 eager shape, named. It IS the old behaviour.
- `Harness::run` re-typed to `Vec<Box<dyn Source>>`; the merge loop's index
arithmetic becomes peek/next. C4 tie-by-source-index is preserved (the
strictly-`<` replace + source-order scan is byte-for-byte the old
semantics). The forward+eval body is unchanged.
- All 53 call sites threaded VecSource-wrapped in the same change, so the
workspace compiles atomically and run output is byte-identical (C1).
Behaviour-preserving is the load-bearing guarantee: the full suite is green
and unchanged (the two-run C1 determinism pairs — real_bars r1/r2, blueprint
sweep-equality, harness h/h2 — stay byte-identical); aura-engine unit tests
129 -> 132 (+3 VecSource unit tests). No residency change yet: VecSource holds
the same Vec as before. The lazy data-server-backed streaming source and its
end-to-end residency proof are the second half (plan Tasks 3-4).

fix(aura-engine): unify RunReport stdout JSON with the on-disk serde shape
RunReport had two divergent JSON encoders: the registry serialized to disk via serde_json (params as an array-of-pairs, floats as 2.0), while stdout rendered through a hand-rolled to_json (params as an object, whole floats as 2). The same record was a structurally different document on disk than on the wire, and no test pinned their relationship — most visibly, `aura runs list` read a record from disk via serde and reprinted it in a different shape. Retire the hand-rolled writer: RunReport::to_json now delegates to serde_json::to_string(self), so stdout is byte-identical to the runs.jsonl line for the same record. The hand-rolled json_str helper is deleted (the graph_model.rs json_str is a separate symbol, untouched — the graph-model JSON is out of scope, #58/#28). A new pin test, to_json_equals_serde_disk_shape, asserts to_json() == serde_json::to_string(&report) so the two encoders can never silently diverge again. Observable change: stdout `params` is now an array-of-pairs and finite f64 fields carry a fractional part (2 -> 2.0); the nested envelope, field order, window [from,to], and integer-valued seed/exposure_sign_flips are unchanged. The on-disk shape does NOT change — only stdout moves to match disk. serde_json is promoted from a dev-dependency to a normal dependency of aura-engine (to_json is non-test code). Under the amended C16 per-case policy this passes: serde_json is a vetted standard crate already in the workspace (registry, ingest), deterministic (C1-safe, already relied on for the disk path), and is exactly "the vetted standard crate doing what the code would otherwise hand-roll" — it removes the last hand-rolled RunReport JSON writer. Goldens flipped to the serde shape: the engine canonical-form golden, the aura-cli sweep golden (cli_run.rs), and the aura-cli odometer-order sweep golden (main.rs) — the last was not in the plan's inventory; the cargo test --workspace gate surfaced it and it took the identical transformation. Structural CLI asserts and the r1.to_json()==r2.to_json() determinism asserts are shape-agnostic and stay green. Spec docs/specs/0033, plan docs/plans/0033, boss-signed (unanimous 5-lens panel). Two stale prose cross-refs (graph_model.rs:30, docs/design/INDEX.md:729) deferred to cycle-close audit. Gates: cargo build/test --workspace green, clippy --all-targets -D warnings clean. closes #54 |

feat(engine): serde foundation + amend C16 dependency policy (cycle D / iter 1)
Iteration 1 of the run-registry cycle (#33): lay the dependency + serde foundation the registry's typed read-path needs, and amend the contract that forbade it. Contract change (load-bearing — C18/C16). C16's blanket "zero-external- dependency by commitment" + "aura-ingest is the sole external-dependency firewall" framing is struck and replaced by a considered, per-case dependency policy: dependencies are admitted by deliberate review (what a crate pulls in vs. what it buys), with particular scrutiny for anything entering the frozen deploy artifact (C13); standard vetted crates (serde, rayon, ...) pass that review and are used wherever they do the job, including in the bot; hand-rolling what a vetted crate does is the anti-pattern. C16's engine/project split + three-tier node reuse are unchanged. The five source comments that asserted the struck framing (aura-engine/aura-ingest Cargo.toml + aura-ingest/report.rs docs) are rewritten to match; no live source or ledger text still asserts it. Per-case justification for serde (the policy now requires one): it gives the run-report types a typed (de)serialization path — exactly what ranking/compare over stored runs needs, and what the writer-only hand-rolled JSON (C14) could never provide; closes the typed-read-path gap (#17). Its closure is tiny, ubiquitous, heavily audited, and its output deterministic (C1-safe). serde_json is test-only this iteration (dev-dependency); no production serde_json yet. Changes: [workspace.dependencies] serde (derive) + serde_json; serde derives on Timestamp (aura-core) and RunMetrics/RunManifest/RunReport (aura-engine), with serde_json round-trip tests (window renders as a [from,to] integer array via the transparent Timestamp newtype). The hand-rolled to_json writers are untouched (still drive stdout). No aura-registry crate, no SweepPoint change — those are iterations 2 and 3. Verified: cargo test --workspace green (incl. the two new round-trip tests); clippy --workspace --all-targets -D warnings clean; no surviving assertion of the struck zero-dep framing in live source or the ledger. refs #33 |

feat(aura-core): name input ports
PortSpec gains a non-load-bearing `name: String`, so an input port is named just as FieldSpec.name (output) and ParamSpec.name (param) already are — input ports were the lone unnamed member of the node signature. Identity stays positional by slot (C23); the name is render/debug only, never read by bootstrap or the run loop. PortSpec drops Copy (String is not Copy), exactly as ParamSpec already does. - Every aura-std node names its input slots: SMA/EMA "series", Sub/Add "lhs"/"rhs", Exposure "signal", SimBroker "exposure"/"price" (the slots become self-documenting), LinComb "term[i]" and Recorder "col[i]" generated in their build loops (mirroring LinComb's existing weights[i] param loop). - derive_signature carries a composite's Role.name into the derived input port (it was dropped before — the output side already carried FieldSpec.name), so the graph model is homogeneously named at both levels. - model_to_json (port_json + the composite-header inputs in scope_json) emits the name as a third tuple element: ["f64","any","exposure"]. The byte golden was re-captured (machine bytes) and its substring twins updated; the model is now fully named across inputs/outputs/params. - All 16 PortSpec construction sites threaded in one compile-gate change; test fixtures carry fixture names. C8 realization note added to the design ledger. Why name-only, no validation: the name is a pure debug symbol. Wire-by-name was rejected (it would be a C23 contract change). Bootstrap slot-wiring validation (which would close #21's same-kind swap footgun) is deferred to its own cycle — a name alone does not catch the swap; it makes the slots self-documenting and gives a future validation something to check against. Verified: cargo test --workspace 168 green; clippy --all-targets -D warnings clean; cargo build --workspace clean. Read-only render path (C9), no serde (C14), scalar kinds unchanged (C4). closes #50 refs #21 refs #51 |

feat(aura): node signature lives in the blueprint; collapse Blueprint into Composite
Consolidate the node data structure so every node's signature (NodeSchema:
inputs/output/params) is declared once and exists in the blueprint pre-build,
and dissolve the special "root graph" type. Behaviour-preserving (C1).
Signature vs sizing
- NodeSchema is now the static signature only: InputSpec -> PortSpec{kind,firing},
with lookback removed. The signature is fully static per blueprint (input
kinds/firing, output fields, params); LinComb's variable arity is a builder arg,
not an injected param.
- The one param-dependent quantity, an input's buffer lookback (e.g. Sma's window =
its injected length), moves out of the signature to Node::lookbacks() -> Vec<usize>,
read only by bootstrap for sizing. Node::schema() is removed.
- LeafFactory -> PrimitiveBuilder, which carries the full NodeSchema. The built node
no longer re-declares it: closes the params-declared-twice drift (#36, the 8
per-node factory_params_match_built_node_schema lockstep tests are deleted — their
subject is now structurally impossible) and a value-empty recipe exposes its full
I/O interface pre-build (#43).
Root is just a bound composite
- struct Blueprint is deleted; its compile/bootstrap/param_space methods move onto
Composite. Role gains source: Option<ScalarKind> (None = open interior port,
Some = bound ingestion feed). A composite is runnable iff every root role is bound;
the "main graph" is no longer a category, only the fully-source-bound composite.
New error CompileError::UnboundRootRole for an open root role.
- BlueprintNode::signature() answers uniformly for both arms: Primitive returns the
builder's declared schema, Composite derives it from the interior (role kinds in,
OutField kinds out, aggregated params), pre-build, no build.
compile -> FlatGraph -> bootstrap
- compile validates structure pre-build via signature() (validate_wiring: range +
kind, returning the same variants as before, so an edge kind fault is now caught
before any build closure fires) and emits FlatGraph{nodes,signatures,sources,edges}.
- bootstrap consumes the FlatGraph: kinds/firing/output from the carried signatures,
buffer depth from node.lookbacks(). SourceSpec survives as the flat descriptor.
Renames: BlueprintNode::Leaf -> Primitive, LeafFactory -> PrimitiveBuilder.
Render (aura-cli/src/graph.rs) is migrated compile-only: it takes &Composite, maps
bound roles to the same source-entry shape, so both render goldens reproduce
byte-identical output (no re-capture needed). Render-fidelity tuning is the next cycle.
Verification (orchestrator-run, not agent-reported): cargo build --workspace green;
cargo test --workspace 150 passed / 0 failed; cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets
-D warnings clean. All pinned determinism/run-output tests pass with values unchanged;
no behavioural assertion was altered to go green. 5 new tests assert the signature is
pre-build and uniform, that compile rejects a kind mismatch without building (via a
panicking builder), UnboundRootRole, and lookbacks()/signature arity agreement.
Deferred to cycle-close audit (per plan): docs/design/INDEX.md and some aura-std
module docs still name the old Node::schema()/LeafFactory/BlueprintNode::Leaf/
Blueprint::param_space contracts; prose reconciliation is the architect's at audit.

tidy(aura-engine): re-export scalar vocab (#29) + drop duplicate Recorder fixtures (#14)
Two behaviour-preserving tidies from the post-0013 fieldtest/backlog. #29: aura-engine re-exports Firing/Scalar/ScalarKind/Timestamp at the crate root. A Blueprint builder needs ScalarKind for SourceSpec.kind and Scalar/ Firing/Timestamp for sources & Recorder columns, but aura-engine previously re-exported only the wiring types — forcing a second aura-core import for the vocabulary its own public structs (SourceSpec.kind, ...) demand. The fieldtest flagged this paper cut (mc_4). One import surface now. Guarded by a new reexport_tests module. #14: the two near-identical #[cfg(test)] Recorder fixtures in report.rs and harness.rs are deleted in favour of the shipped aura-std::Recorder (already a dev-dependency). Constructor signature, schema, and try_iter() drain are identical, so no call site changed — only the struct/impl deletion plus adding Recorder to each file's existing aura_std import. report.rs additionally drops four imports (Ctx/InputSpec/Node/NodeSchema) that only the deleted fixture used. The separate TapForward fixture in harness.rs is untouched. Verified: cargo build/test/clippy --workspace all green (49 aura-engine lib tests incl. the new one); bit-identical, golden-snapshot, SMA-disambiguation, and mixed-kind recording tests all stay green — behaviour preserved. closes #29 closes #14 |

docs(aura-engine): document to_json JSON schema + integer-token rendering
Resolves the two doc-level findings from the cycle-0009 fieldtest
(docs/specs/fieldtest-0009-run-metrics.md), both the same doc pass on
RunReport::to_json's rustdoc:
- spec_gap: the JSON key names and {manifest,metrics} nesting were not on the
public surface — a consumer parsing the JSON (the C18 registry, the deferred
aura run printer) could not author against it from rustdoc alone. Now stated:
keys mirror the struct field names in fixed order, window is a 2-element
[from,to] array, params is an insertion-order object, with a worked sample
object. Ratifies field-name-mirroring as the contract for the C14 face.
- friction: a whole-valued f64 renders without a fractional part (12.0 -> 12),
so one f64 field may appear as an integer or decimal token across runs. Now
documented, with the consumer guidance to parse as a number, never key off
token shape.
Doc-only change; no behaviour change. The sample is a `text` fence (not a
doctest). Verified: RUSTDOCFLAGS="-D warnings" cargo doc -p aura-engine clean;
clippy -p aura-engine --all-targets -D warnings clean; doctests 0.

feat(aura-engine): run metrics + manifest report surface
Cycle 0009 (Walking skeleton milestone). A run's two C18 "from day one"
artefacts — a reproducible manifest and summary metrics — land as a new,
pure-additive `report` module in aura-engine:
- summarize(equity, exposure) -> RunMetrics: a post-run pure reduction over a
run's recorded pip-equity + exposure streams. total_pips (last cumulative
value), max_drawdown (worst running-peak-to-trough), exposure_sign_flips (a
turnover proxy: adjacent normalized-sign changes, flat distinct from
long/short via a three-way sign0). Total and pure: empty -> zeros, identical
inputs -> identical metrics (C1/C12).
- RunManifest: the reproducible descriptor (commit, params as name->value
pairs, data-window, seed, broker label). Caller-supplied — the engine cannot
introspect a git commit or seed. params is the honest precursor to the
deferred typed param-space (node.rs; 0008 audit).
- RunReport { manifest, metrics } + to_json(): canonical, hand-rolled JSON for
the structured C14 face.
- f64_field(rows, field): bridges a recording sink's Vec<Scalar> rows to
summarize; panics on a kind/width mismatch (a wiring bug), like the engine's
other "checked at wiring" violations.
Why post-run, not a node: a node emits one record per eval with no terminal
eval (C8), so an end-of-run reduction has no home as a node; the World drains
its cycle-0006 recording sinks after Harness::run and folds them here. Matches
C18's "store manifests + metrics, re-derive results on demand".
Why hand-rolled JSON, not serde: the workspace is deliberately zero-dependency
and the schema is tiny/closed/flat; serde is reconsidered when the run-registry
milestone grows the schema. (User-approved at spec review.)
Scope: the surface + a determinism end-to-end test reusing the cycle-0007
two-sink harness; the `aura run` subcommand that prints the report is #8. No
engine/Harness/node-contract change; workspace stays zero-dependency.
Verified: cargo test --workspace green (aura-engine 40, incl. 10 new report
tests); clippy --all-targets -D warnings clean; RUSTDOCFLAGS=-D warnings cargo
doc clean.
