Brummel 937257e368 feat(aura-engine,aura-cli): named param binding — sweep axes .axis()/.sweep() (0030 iter 2)
Bind a sweep's axes by name instead of by a positional GridSpace:

    bp.axis("sma_cross.fast", [2, 3]).axis("sma_cross.slow", [4, 5]).axis("scale", [0.5]).sweep(run)

The sweep half of spec 0030, completing the named-binding feature (#35). A pure
authoring layer over the existing GridSpace::new / sweep primitives; engine core
untouched (C1/C12/C19/C23).

This iteration:
- resolve_axes(): shares resolve's name->slot mapping (iter 1), adds the EmptyAxis
  check (the variant defined in iter 1 is now first constructed here) and a
  per-element axis kind-check (every element of each axis, first offending element
  in axis order). Its validation is a strict superset of GridSpace::new's
  (arity / non-empty / per-element kind), so SweepBinder::sweep's downstream
  GridSpace::new(...).expect(...) is infallible by construction — it can never
  panic on author input.
- Composite::axis -> SweepBinder -> SweepBinder::sweep (Result<SweepFamily, BindError>).
- The CLI sample sweep converted to the named form (behaviour-preserving).

Plan correction (verified by the orchestrator): the iteration plan said only the
GridSpace import was orphaned by the CLI conversion, but replacing the free
sweep(&grid, ..) call with the .sweep(..) method also orphans the free `sweep`
import — both were dropped from aura-cli to satisfy clippy -D warnings. The Scalar
import (from aura_core) stays used and was untouched.

Verified (run by the orchestrator): 6 new aura-engine tests green —
resolve_axes round-trip, EmptyAxis, MissingKnob, the per-element KindMismatch on a
mixed axis (the superset/no-panic guarantee), a builder no-panic wrong-kind test,
and a GridSpace .points() parity test; the two sweep JSON goldens
(sweep_report_renders_four_points_in_odometer_order + the cli_run integration
golden) green unchanged (name/value/order-preserving conversion); full
`cargo test --workspace` green and `cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets
-- -D warnings` clean.

Brummel 64b19ab3d5 feat(aura-engine,aura-cli): named param binding — single-run .with()/.bootstrap() (0030 iter 1)
Bind a blueprint's open knobs by name for a single run instead of by a positional,
Scalar-wrapped Vec in param_space() order:

    bp.with("sma_cross.fast", 2).with("sma_cross.slow", 4).with("scale", 0.5).bootstrap()

A pure authoring layer over the existing Composite::param_space / bootstrap_with_params
primitives; the engine run loop and the construction core are untouched (C1/C12/C19/C23
preserved). Raw literals lower via Into<Scalar> (the literal fixes the variant: 2->I64,
0.5->F64, pinned by e97906a); the match key is the exact param_space() name — path-qualified
for a composite-interior knob (sma_cross.fast), bare for a root-level knob (scale).

This iteration (single-run side):
- BindError vocabulary (name-qualified); the full enum incl. the sweep-only EmptyAxis is
  defined and re-exported now, so the unconstructed variant is reachable public API, not
  dead_code — EmptyAxis is constructed in iteration 2 (the sweep side).
- resolve(): the shared name-resolution core, a total error order — Phase 1 per binding in
  input order (a UnknownKnob / b AmbiguousKnob / d DuplicateBinding), Phase 2 slot walk in
  param_space() order (e MissingKnob / f KindMismatch); first failing check wins.
- Composite::with -> Binder -> Binder::bootstrap; .with() not .bind() (bind is reserved for
  #55's structural-constant overlay).
- The CLI sample single-run test converted to the named form (behaviour-preserving).

Verified (run by the orchestrator, not the agent's claim): 9 new aura-engine tests green —
resolve round-trip + one per single-run BindError variant + two precedence tests + the C1
named-equals-positional equivalence over the sample composite harness; the converted CLI
sample test green; full `cargo test --workspace` green and `cargo clippy --workspace
--all-targets -- -D warnings` clean.

Iteration 2 (the sweep side: axis / SweepBinder / resolve_axes / EmptyAxis + the sweep CLI
conversion) is next. refs #35

Brummel a665a966a7 feat(aura-engine): param-sweep grid primitive (the World, cycle C / iter 1)
Turn one value-empty blueprint into a family of disjoint instances over a
declared grid, run them in parallel, and collect per-point metrics. This is
C12.1's grid axis — the first "N instead of 1": #30/#31 made a blueprint
param-generic and bindable; this reaps it.

New module crates/aura-engine/src/sweep.rs, three parts:
- GridSpace: a validated cartesian grid over a blueprint's param_space() —
  one discrete value-list per slot, kind/arity/non-empty checked at
  construction (SweepError::{Arity, KindMismatch, EmptyAxis}, the typed gate
  before any run). points() enumerates in odometer order (last axis fastest),
  deterministic.
- sweep(): closure-driven. The engine owns enumeration + disjoint execution
  + collection; the author owns run_one: Fn(&[Scalar]) -> RunMetrics (build
  fresh -> bootstrap_with_params -> run -> drain -> summarize). Metrics
  reduction is harness-specific sink glue the engine cannot generically own
  (C8/C18), and a fresh per-point build resolves #31's two structural facts:
  bootstrap_with_params consumes the blueprint, and a Recorder bakes its
  channel in — so each point gets its own drainable instance.
- SweepFamily / SweepPoint: ordered, self-describing (params carry the point
  coordinate), in enumeration order independent of thread completion.

Execution is std::thread::scope over available_parallelism() workers pulling
point indices from a shared atomic cursor (work-stealing balances uneven
per-point cost); results are tagged by index and sorted after join, so the
family is bit-identical across thread counts and repeated runs (C1: disjoint,
lock-free; order = enumeration, not completion). No external dependency —
std only, never rayon (C16: the engine workspace stays zero-dep for deploy
purity). A private sweep_with_threads(nthreads) lets the tests pin
determinism at 1 vs N workers while the public sweep() derives the count.

Out of scope this iteration: the `aura sweep` CLI demonstrator (cycle 0028
iter 2); random enumeration, per-point manifest assembly (#33), value-domain
validation (C20) are deferred per the spec.

One deviation from the plan's verbatim code: GridSpace derives Debug
(load-bearing — the three .unwrap_err() fault tests need the Ok type to be
Debug to compile).

Verified: 8 new sweep:: tests green (enumeration/odometer order, the three
typed faults, sweep == N independent runs, determinism across thread counts,
distinct-points-distinct-metrics); cargo test --workspace green (92 engine
lib tests, no regression); cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets
-- -D warnings clean.

Brummel 288f58953e feat(aura-engine): graph model serializer (0026 it1)
Iteration 1 of the graph render redesign: a read-only model_to_json(&Composite)
that serializes the harness root + every distinct composite type into the
canonical, deterministic JSON model the browser viewer will consume. New
crates/aura-engine/src/graph_model.rs; lib.rs re-exports model_to_json.

- House style: hand-rolled JSON like RunReport::to_json, NO serde (C14).
- Model shape (faithful to the types, resolving the spec's prototype-flavoured
  example): node keys are indices (C23, the blueprint has no unique names);
  input ports carry kind+firing only, no name (PortSpec has none — acceptance
  criterion 3); a vec![] output is the C8 sink; bound root source-roles are
  minted as synthetic src_<role> source nodes; composite boundaries use @role
  (input) and #N (output) endpoints; distinct composites collected once.
- Improvement over the plan: a composite's input kind is read from the actually
  fed interior slot (matching blueprint::derive_signature) rather than a hardcoded
  f64 — invents nothing.
- Read-only (C9): &Composite -> String, no eval/compile/bootstrap on the path.
- 10 new tests green: byte golden on the sample harness, determinism, structural
  mis-wire differs (param swaps are invisible to the pre-compile model — the
  property is carried by a structural re-target), read-only witness, sink /
  two-input / distinct-once structural assertions. Workspace green, clippy clean.

aura graph still renders via ascii-dag (untouched); iteration 2 ports the viewer
JS, vendors the WASM-Graphviz asset, emits the self-contained HTML, and retires
ascii-dag.

Brummel 1b3909316e 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.

Brummel 69d20949c0 tidy(aura-engine): single-own alias-validity + shared alias-count anchor
Collapse the two correctness-neutral debt items the 0021 fan-in pre-pass
left behind (architect drift review at cycle close).

Alias-validity: the `BadInteriorIndex` check was raised in two places —
the structural pre-pass `check_composite_fan_in` and `inline_composite`.
Since `compile_with_params` runs the pre-pass over every composite before
any lowering, `inline_composite`'s copy was dead for that error path. The
check now lives in one helper `check_alias_indices`, called solely by the
pre-pass; `inline_composite` drops its copy (and the now-unused
`param_aliases` binding — the overlay is a pure naming layer, unused in
lowering, which is driven by the injected scalar vector).

Alias-count: the per-node `a.node == node` predicate was re-derived in
three spots (signature base, the unaliased-param test, the CLI render
base-length). All three now route through one exported anchor
`aliases_on`, so an alias-semantics change touches one site.

Behaviour-preserving: the full workspace suite is the guard (15+6 cli,
25 core, 69 engine, 6+1+1 ingest/misc, 29 std — 0 failed),
`out_of_range_param_alias_rejected` still green (now raised by the
pre-pass), clippy -D warnings clean. No ledger change (the C9 refinement
landed in 0021).

Brummel 3f4d756ed2 feat(aura): fan-in input distinguishability — construction constraint + source-derived render
A fan-in node (>1 input) whose colliding sources hide an unnamed configuration
axis is now illegal at construction, and the definition view renders each fan-in
input as a source-derived recursive-signature identifier instead of the
positional, meaningless #A/#B.

The root defect was sma_cross: two Sma into a Sub with unaliased length params,
rendering sma_cross() -> (cross) with two indistinguishable [SMA] and
[Sub(#A,#B)] — the author meant fast vs slow but the identity hid it. Now it
renders sma_cross(fast:i64, slow:i64) with [SMA(fast)]/[SMA(slow)] and
[Sub(#Sf,#Ss)].

Shape (single source of truth for "signature" shared by engine + CLI):
- aura-engine signature_of(): a node's recursive authoring identity — type
  initial + alias initials + each wired input's signature (recursing into
  interior leaves, stopping at named roles/composites at their initial).
- aura-cli leaf_label/fan_in_identifiers: shortest sibling-unique prefix of a
  source's signature, never below its base (type + alias initials); a role-fed
  slot renders its name verbatim (#price); equal-signature interchangeable
  inputs keep the positional letter.
- aura-engine IndistinguishableFanIn: a signature collision is a fault only when
  a colliding source carries an unaliased param (the unnamed axis); param-less
  interchangeable sources (fan_composite's Pass/Pass) stay legal.

Param-aware criterion (refined during design): keeps the blast radius to the
param-bearing alias-less fixtures (sma_cross CLI + engine, the nested fast_slow);
fan_composite and the hand-wired flat fixtures stay green.

Placement decision (deviates from the plan): the constraint runs as a structural
pre-pass (check_fan_in_distinguishability) at the head of compile_with_params,
BEFORE the param-arity gate — not inside inline_composite as the plan drafted.
Reason: the no-param compile() of a param-bearing composite would hit ParamArity
first and preempt the fault; the spec mandates a structural check needing no
param values, so the pre-pass is the spec-aligned home. Alias-validity ordering
(BadInteriorIndex before the fan-in fault) is preserved at the pre-pass head.

C23 untouched: the check is construction-phase; the compilat stays name-free
(compiled_view_golden byte-stable). Ledger C9 carries the refinement.

Known debt (non-gating): the alias-index validity check now exists in both
inline_composite and the pre-pass (the pre-pass reaches every composite first,
making inline_composite's copy effectively dead). Left for a separate tidy — a
5-line, correctness-neutral removal with its own test surface.

Brummel 41cbb5506f feat(aura-engine): name the composite boundary — input roles + param aliases
Brings the other two composite-boundary edge-kinds to the named-projection
shape #40 gave outputs. input_roles changes from a bare Vec<Vec<Target>>
to Vec<Role { name, targets }> (rendered [in:<name>]); a composite gains
params: Vec<ParamAlias { name, node, slot }> that relabels an interior
leaf param slot's surface name in param_space() (rendered [param:<name>]).

Param aliasing is a PURE NAMING OVERLAY, not curation (the load-bearing
decision, per spec 0019): every interior param slot stays in param_space()
and sweepable; the alias only relabels in place, never reorders or hides.
Proven empirically — the MACD run is byte-identical (total_pips
0.1637945563898923, 3 sign flips), only the param labels improved:
param_space() now surfaces [macd.fast, macd.slow, macd.signal] instead of
three indistinguishable macd.length, and the manifest reads ema_fast/
ema_slow/ema_signal.

C23 honoured: role/param/output names are non-load-bearing debug symbols
dropped at lowering; identity is positional (role index, param slot,
output field). compiled_view_golden is byte-identical (verified: the
golden region is untouched in the diff). An out-of-range alias (missing/
non-leaf node or slot past the leaf's param count) is rejected at
compile_with_params as BadInteriorIndex, mirroring the output range-check
(no new variant). Orthogonal to #36 — purely additive at the composite
level.

Aliasing is demonstrated on the CLI MACD site only (the spec's worked
example + a new E2E test macd_param_space_surfaces_the_three_named_aliases);
sma_cross, the engine test fixtures, and the construction-layer fieldtests
get the forced role-name + empty params, so the param_space C23 anchor
goldens (param_space_mirrors_compiled_flat_node_param_order + siblings)
stay byte-identical.

Verification (orchestrator-run, not trusted from the agent report):
cargo build/test/clippy --workspace -D warnings all green (engine 66,
cli 12); the separate-workspace construction-layer fieldtest crate builds
(guards the #42 latent-drift recurrence); compiled_view_golden + MACD
determinism unchanged.

Two faithful repairs to the plan's literal test/code bodies, no semantic
change: the out-of-range test uses .err()/Some(BadInteriorIndex) (the Ok
arm Vec<Box<dyn Node>> is not Debug, so .unwrap_err() would not compile),
and the inline_composite destructure binds params as `param_aliases` to
avoid shadowing the injected `params: &[Scalar]` arg.

Brummel 784e6c917a feat(aura-engine): composite output is a named multi-field record
Replace a composite's single output port (OutPort { node, field }) with
an ordered, named record (Vec<OutField { node, field, name }>). A
composite can now re-export K interior fields as one output; a consumer
selects one via the existing Edge::from_field — the same field-wise
selector that already works for multi-output leaf producers (OHLCV).

Why: multi-line indicators (MACD, Bollinger, Stochastic, Ichimoku) could
not be authored as a composition and re-exported as a unit — only one
line escaped the boundary. The MACD PoC was forced to expose only the
histogram. This lifts the three `field == 0` / `from_field == 0` caps at
the composite boundary (inline_composite nested arm, rewrite_edge
composite arm), range-checking the index instead.

Boundary completion, not an invariant change:
- C8/C7/C4 untouched — one port, one row per eval, K base columns (a
  3-line MACD is identical in kind to OHLCV).
- C23 honoured — re-export names live at the blueprint boundary only and
  are dropped in the compilat (raw index wiring). compiled_view_golden
  stayed byte-identical (the regression guard): no name leaked into the
  flat graph.

The MACD PoC now re-exports macd / signal / histogram as a record; the
strategy still trades the histogram, selected via from_field: 2. The
render shows K [out:<name>] markers per multi-output composite (input
roles stay [in:<index>] — naming them is the dependent #41).

Output naming ships with the capability (OutField is born name-ready) so
#41 — composite param aliasing + input-role naming — does not reopen the
type.

Verification: cargo build/test/clippy --workspace -- -D warnings all
green; aura-engine 62 tests (+3 capability, +1 through-run E2E), aura-cli
unchanged-count green; compiled_view_golden byte-identical.

Known debt (out of scope, pre-existing): the non-workspace construction-
layer fieldtests (fieldtests/milestone-construction-layer/mc_1..mc_4)
carry their OutField sweep but still do not compile standalone — they use
the Sma::new / BlueprintNode::from(Sma) API retired in the cycle-0016
value-empty migration, never propagated to these fixtures. Tracked as a
follow-up.

Brummel 931109df58 feat(aura-core,aura-std,aura-engine): declare node tunable params (#30)
Cycle A of milestone 'The World — parameter-space & sweep'. A node now declares
its tunable parameters in its C8 schema, and a blueprint aggregates them into one
flat, inspectable param-space — the root that unlocks the C12 orchestration axes
(#31 bind, #32 sweep), filling the gap C8/C23 name 'deliberately not in the schema
yet'.

- aura-core: ParamSpec { name: String, kind: ScalarKind } as a third schema-
  declaration type; NodeSchema gains a third field 'params'. name is String (not
  &'static like FieldSpec) because a vector knob carries a runtime index and
  aggregation prefixes the composite path.
- aura-std: Sma declares [length:I64], Exposure [scale:F64], LinComb expands to N
  flat [weights[i]:F64] (N = its input arity, topology-fixed per C19); Sub/Add/
  SimBroker/Recorder declare none (pip_size is metadata, C10/C15; Recorder is
  wiring).
- aura-engine: Blueprint::param_space() walks the graph-as-data depth-first in
  lower_items order, path-qualifying via the already-public Composite::name() — a
  read-only projection (C9). compile/inline_composite/lower_items are untouched, so
  the compilat stays bit-identical (composite_sma_cross_runs_bit_identical_to_hand_wired
  and the golden render tests stay green).

Design: param identity is positional (slot after the deterministic inline order,
C23 'by index not name'); the path-qualified name is a non-load-bearing debug
symbol — same-type siblings in one composite share a name, uniqueness is at the
slot. Flat over a structured arity-bearing ParamSpec because flattening is
unavoidable (a sweep enumerates a flat point-space) and structure-in-the-runtime
is the nested-composite reading C23 rejects (see spec 0015 for the full rationale).

Scope is declaration + aggregation + inspection only; binding (#31), sweep
enumeration (#32), search-range, validity-constraint, and default-range/slider are
deferred. An E2E test pins the load-bearing C23/#31 invariant: param_space() slot
order mirrors compile()'s flat-node param order, kind-by-slot, on the SMA-cross
harness. fieldtests/ (excluded crates) left as frozen snapshots.

Verified: cargo build/test --workspace green (64 tests), clippy --all-targets -D
warnings clean; compile/inline diff empty.

Brummel 561482c422 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.

Brummel a4fb5d7182 feat(aura-engine): blueprint construction layer with composite inlining
Add the construction layer (C9/C19/C23): a named, param-generic graph-as-data
(`Blueprint`) that *compiles* to the flat, type-erased instance the run loop
already runs. The unit of reuse is the `Composite` — a nestable sub-graph
fragment exposing one output port (C8) and named input roles — which
`Blueprint::compile()` **inlines** by raw-index lowering into the flat
`(nodes, sources, edges)` the unchanged `Harness::bootstrap` consumes.

Design (settled in spec 0012, ledger C9/C19/C23): a composite is an
authoring-level node, NOT a runtime `Box<dyn Node>` sub-engine. The chosen
inlining approach keeps the sacrosanct deterministic run loop untouched and
leaves the composite interior fully inspectable for the deferred cross-graph
optimiser; the rejected "runtime sub-engine" reading would have put throwaway
complexity into the run loop and kept the interior opaque. The compilat is
wired by raw index, not by name; names survive only as non-load-bearing debug
symbols (as `FieldSpec.name` already is).

Lowering is recursive index rewriting: interior items append at an offset,
interior edges rewrite by that offset, an edge into a composite fans through
its input roles (one blueprint edge -> several flat edges), an edge out
resolves to the interior output port, and nesting recurses inside-out.
Construction-phase faults are caught as a typed `CompileError`
(BadInteriorIndex / RoleKindMismatch / OutputPortOutOfRange); the lowered flat
compilat is validated by bootstrap's existing kind- and Kahn-cycle-check
(wrapped as `CompileError::Bootstrap`), with no re-implementation.

Non-goals (deferred per C23/C16): no optimisation pass (CSE/DCE,
sweep-invariant hoisting), no external optimisation crate, no named-handle
ergonomic wiring, no `aura graph` render (#13).

Verification: 48 engine tests green (8 blueprint: derived-schema, single +
nested composite inlining, the three CompileError paths, bootstrap-error wrap,
and the headline `composite_sma_cross_runs_bit_identical_to_hand_wired` C1
demonstrator — the SMA-cross composite lowers to a flat graph byte-identical to
the hand-wired sample harness, producing bit-for-bit identical equity +
exposure traces); `cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -D warnings` clean.
`Node`, `Harness::bootstrap`, the run loop, and `Edge`/`Target`/`SourceSpec`
are unchanged.

Brummel 80d7bfbbf0 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.

Brummel f37b2a35d3 feat(engine): firing policies A/B + the k-way ingestion merge
Cycle 0004: the reactive-semantics layer. The engine now merges multiple
timestamped sources into one chronological cycle stream (C3) and gates each
node's re-evaluation by a per-input firing policy (C5/C6) — both rails shipping
together, as the user required ("must sit right from the start").

- `Firing` (aura-core) — a per-input enum on `InputSpec`, where C8 places firing:
  `Any` (mode A, fire-on-any-fresh + hold / as-of join) and `Barrier(u8)` (mode B,
  all-fresh barrier / synchronizing join). Default-free; Sma/Sub declare
  `Firing::Any`, so under a single source ticking every cycle their behavior is
  unchanged (backward compatible — the 0003 fan-out/join DAG still emits
  [None,None,None,2,2,2]).
- `SourceSpec` + the k-way merge (aura-engine) — `run` takes one
  `(Timestamp, Scalar)` stream per source and merges them by (timestamp, source
  index) (C4 ties by declaration order). One record = one cycle. This is the
  permanent ingestion core; the Source trait + data-server IO (C3/C11) are a
  later orthogonal cycle (the user scoped this cycle to the reactive semantics).
- Two read clocks, both load-bearing (resolves the 0003 audit's "0004 owns
  cycle_id" with no write-only field): each push stamps the input slot with
  `fresh_at` (the cycle_id — freshness epoch, C5: fresh iff fresh_at == cycle_id)
  and `last_ts` (the data timestamp — barrier token, C6: a barrier group is
  complete iff all members carry last_ts == T). The `fires()` predicate ORs the
  groups; the ">=1 member fresh this cycle" clause is the once-per-timestamp
  guard. Sample-and-hold falls out of the push model: a non-firing node pushes
  nothing, so consumers keep seeing the held value via window[0].

Key design call, studied against RustAst (src/ast/rtl/streams/): the barrier
token is the data *timestamp*, not cycle_id. RustAst's
last_cycle_per_input.all(== cycle_id) synchronizes one source's fan-out but
cannot synchronize independent sources — under C4 four same-timestamp sources
are four different cycle_ids, so the cycle_id barrier never fires for C6's own
OHLC example. Substituting timestamp is the minimal faithful generalization
(fires both the diamond rejoin and the multi-source bar). Mode A and the k-way
merge are both new (RustAst had neither); RustAst's total_count push counter is
aura's already-built Column::run_count.

Both rails proven on identical sources, firing-only difference:
- mode A (AsOfSum): [None,None,120,130,140,240] — holds the slow input;
- mode B (BarrierSum): [None,None,120,None,None,240] — waits for timestamp
  coincidence;
- mixed A+B (MixedSum): the OR-combine fires both when the barrier pair completes
  (holding the as-of input) and when the as-of input ticks (holding the pair).
Plus determinism (C1, bit-identical re-run of each rail) and the three bootstrap
rejections re-expressed on SourceSpec.

Gates green (re-run by the orchestrator, not just the agent): cargo build/test
(30: aura-core 19 + aura-std 3 + aura-engine 8) / clippy --workspace
--all-targets -D warnings clean; surface-purity grep (no dyn-Any / Rc / RefCell)
clean — the harness doc phrases RustAst's model without the literal tokens to
avoid self-match.

Brummel 02fe89176f audit: cycle 0003 tidy — rename Sim -> Harness (glossary alignment)
Architect drift review over 71c8f6e..dd5c3fa (deterministic-sim-loop).
Invariants hold: C1 (single-threaded, bit-identical re-run, alloc-free per-cycle
ring path), C7 (AnyColumn type-erased edges, Box<dyn Node> is the node object not
a dyn-Any payload, kinds checked once at bootstrap), C8/C9 (DAG wired, Kahn
rejects cycles, None forwards nothing = sample-and-hold seed). Column::run_count
already exists, so the C5 freshness primitive lives at the substrate — the
deferral is honest, not a hole.

Resolved [high]: the runtime type was named `Sim`, colliding with the glossary's
load-bearing distinction — `sim` is the disjoint *executable unit / parallelism*
framing, whereas the thing built here (a closed root graph of source + nodes +
observe under a clock) is by C20 / the glossary a **harness**. Renamed
`Sim` -> `Harness`, `sim.rs` -> `harness.rs`, and the module/exports/doc to match,
before any other code takes a dependency on the wrong term. Gates re-run green
(26 tests, clippy -D warnings, purity grep).

Resolved [med] (glossary gap): added an `edge` entry anchoring the new wiring
vocabulary (Edge / source target) to the glossary — record-reality per the boss
glossary-write authority.

Carry-on with forward notes (next-cycle owners, not fixes now):
- [med] C4 monotonic cycle_id has no realization in the runtime type yet (the
  cycle clock is the record iteration; the explicit counter's first reader is
  freshness). Cycle 0004 owns materializing it together with C5.
- [low] Sub declares lookback 1; once depth>1 join nodes exist, add a test
  guarding C8's "a node never reads beyond its declared lookback".

Regression gate: profile regression list empty — architect is the sole gate,
now clean. Next direction: freshness-gated recompute + a second source (C5/C3).

Brummel dd5c3fad96 feat(engine): the deterministic single-source sim loop
Cycle 0003: aura-engine's first real content — a Sim that runs a wired DAG of
nodes deterministically, cycle by cycle. First point in the project where
authored nodes execute against data, not just under a hand-fed Ctx.

- `Sim` (aura-engine) — a bootstrapped, frozen root graph: a flat Vec<NodeBox>
  (each node owns its input columns, the cycle-0002 shape) + an index edge
  table, topologically ordered (Kahn). `bootstrap` sizes every input column from
  its node's schema, kind-checks each edge and source target, and rejects
  directed cycles — C7's "type check paid once at wiring" generalized to the
  whole topology (`BootstrapError::{KindMismatch, BadIndex, Cycle}`).
- `run` — the deterministic loop: per record, forward the source value into its
  target slots, evaluate nodes in topo order, capture the observed node's output
  at eval time, and forward each `Some` output into its consumers' input columns
  (a `None` forwards nothing — the structural seed of sample-and-hold). The loop
  destructures `&mut self` into disjoint field borrows and allocates nothing on
  the per-cycle path. This is the flat, monomorphized sharpening of RustAst's
  reference-counted, interior-mutable observer push graph (C1/C7).
- `Edge` / `Target` (aura-engine) — producer->consumer and source->consumer wiring.
- `Sub` (aura-std) — a 2-input f64-difference node, so the loop is proven on a
  real fan-out + join DAG (source -> {SMA(2), SMA(4)} -> Sub), with a determinism
  assertion (C1: a second identical run is bit-identical).

Engine library depends only on aura-core; a test-only dev-dependency on aura-std
lets the integration test wire real Sma/Sub nodes. Sim carries a hand-written,
node-opaque `Debug` impl (Box<dyn Node> is not Debug; the impl prints
nodes.len() + the index/topology fields, needed by the bootstrap-rejection tests'
`unwrap_err`).

Deliberately deferred (recorded as decisions): freshness-gated recompute /
sample-and-hold (C5 -> cycle 0004, with the second source that makes it testable);
the explicit monotonic cycle_id counter (its first reader is freshness, 0004);
the Source trait + data-server ingestion + k-way merge (C3/C11); the builder API
(C19); the real sink + run registry (C18/C22).

Gates green: cargo build/test (26: 18 aura-core + 3 aura-std + 5 aura-engine)/
clippy -D warnings clean; surface-purity grep (no dyn-Any / Rc / RefCell) clean.

Brummel 1467fcd30f docs: brokers are consumer nodes (C10), several attachable for comparable curves
Correct the broker mechanism: a broker is an ordinary downstream consumer node (C8/C9), not an external plugin/subsystem. It consumes the position-event stream + price streams and emits an equity stream; several brokers (e.g. sim-optimal pip + realistic currency) can be attached to the same position table at once, yielding directly comparable equity curves. Updates C10, CLAUDE.md invariant 7, aura-engine/aura-std crate docs, and the day-in-the-life doc.

Brummel d8ccdcd806 docs: fix three drifts found in the session audit
C8: a node is producer/consumer/both — at most one output, pure consumers (sinks: chart/equity/logger) have none; records the node-role taxonomy the substrate requires (was wrongly 'exactly one output', contradicting pure consumers and C14). C3: merge by timestamp, normalizing source-native units (data-server Unix-ms) to the canonical epoch-ns of C7. aura-engine lib doc: broker is a downstream plugin over the position table (sim-optimal pip / realistic currency), not an in-strategy 'broker/portfolio node'. Plus a provenance line-wrap nit.

Brummel 744c2f31a8 chore: scaffold aura workspace and wire the skills dev-cycle
Cargo workspace aura-core -> aura-engine -> aura-cli (bin `aura`) plus nodes/ for hot-reloadable cdylib node crates. Crate bodies are intentionally API-free; types arrive from the first spec. Adds the skills profile (.claude/dev-cycle-profile.yml), the project CLAUDE.md with the eight domain invariants, and the design-ledger skeleton.
