feat(project): the project-as-crate load boundary (cycle 0102)
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. refs #180 |

feat(0092): run-from-blueprint infrastructure — restructure + topology_hash + shared seam (Tasks 1-3)
Cycle-1 infrastructure for #165 (World/C21). Behaviour-preserving + workspace green; the CLI arm + tests (Tasks 4-5) follow. Task 1 — restructured stage1_r_graph into stage1_signal() (the serializable signal leg: SMA-cross -> Bias, a `price` input-role + a `bias` output) + wrap_stage1r(signal, ...) (broker/sinks/exec/cost around a nested signal), with stage1_r_graph() = wrap_stage1r(stage1_signal(...)). DEVIATION from the plan's "callers untouched" claim, verified behaviour-preserving: nesting the signal prefixes its param-space names (stage1_signal.fast.length), which broke the sweep's bare .axis("fast.length"); fixed exactly as the #137 stop-knob machinery does — FAST_LENGTH_SUFFIX/SLOW_LENGTH_SUFFIX suffix-resolution + stage1_r_friendly_name arms mapping the prefixed names back to the bare manifest names. All observable behaviour (manifest names, member keys, metrics, traces) byte-identical; the flat graph and every metric unchanged (full suite green, incl. sweep/walkforward/MC). Task 2 — RunManifest.topology_hash: Option<String> (Tier-1 optional, serde default/skip — old manifests byte-identical, #156), threaded None into all 24 literal sites across 7 crates. Also fixed the aura-registry RunManifestRead read-mirror to carry topology_hash (it was hardcoding None on load) — else a stored hash would silently drop on the registry round-trip once Task 3 stores a real one. Task 3 — the shared run_signal_stage1r seam (hash the signal, wrap, compile with params, bootstrap, run, manifest with params from param_space + topology_hash) + the sha256_hex topology_hash helper (sha2 in aura-cli, off the frozen engine, invariant 8). run_stage1_r now carries its topology_hash too (every run becomes self-identifying, #158). The seam is unwired until Task 4 (transient #[allow(dead_code)], retired there); RED-first seam tests added. Verified: cargo test --workspace green (51 suites, 0 failures); cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -D warnings clean. refs #165 |

feat(0078): cross-instrument generalization as a validation step
Last piece of the Inferential-validation milestone (#146): a new `aura generalize` subcommand grades how consistently a single candidate holds across a set of instruments — the across-instrument axis of the same anti-false-discovery concern as trials-deflation (#144, within one family) and plateau-over-peak (#145, within one instrument's surface). Aggregator/validator, not a third selector (user-ratified): it runs a brought candidate (a single-cell stage1-r grid — --fast/--slow/--stop- length/--stop-k pinned to single values) across an instrument list (--real SYM1,SYM2,...), collects per-instrument R-metrics, and reduces them to a worst-case floor (min over instruments) + a sign-agreement count + the per-instrument breakdown. R-only (C10 — R is the only account/instrument-agnostic unit); the worst-case min is the cross- instrument sibling of PlateauMode::Worst and satisfies the non- domination constraint by construction (a strong instrument cannot lift a min). Rejected: a cross-instrument t-stat mean/std*sqrt(M), which reintroduces the pooled mean the milestone warns against. - RunManifest gains a first-class `instrument` lineage field (serde- widened, C14/C18 — legacy lines load as None, existing manifest bytes unchanged); the compat read-mirror threads it in lockstep. - FamilyKind::CrossInstrument (C12 comparison axis); the M per-instrument runs persist as a CrossInstrument family, each member self-identifying via its stamped instrument. The aggregate is recomputable from the members (McAggregate precedent), printed live. - The generalization reduction lives registry-side beside optimize_ deflated/optimize_plateau (C9), reusing resolve_metric/metric_value/ is_r_metric; check_r_metric is the data-free pre-check the CLI runs before evaluating any instrument. - Additive: existing sweep/walkforward/mc/standalone paths stay byte- identical (C23 — instrument omitted when None via skip_serializing_if). Verified by the orchestrator: cargo test --workspace green (0 failed — the new generalization_*, check_r_metric, parse_generalize_*, and the gated cross-instrument E2E all pass; the E2E ran the real GER40/USDJPY path on this host, exit 0); cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -D warnings clean. closes #146 |

feat(0076): deflate the sweep winner's metric for the number of trials
Adds optimize_deflated beside optimize in aura-registry: the in-sample walk-forward selection now records, on each OOS winner's manifest, how much the winner's metric is inflated by the size of the search it won — a deflated score and (R arm) an overfit probability — without changing which member wins (additive, C23; a regression test pins optimize_deflated's winner == optimize's). - R arm (sqn_normalized/expectancy_r/...): a centred moving-block reality-check. Each member's per-trade R series is mean-subtracted to impose the no-edge null, resampled via the r_bootstrap kernel (extracted to a shared resample_block, byte-identical), and the best-of-K null-max gives overfit_probability = (count(null >= raw)+1)/(n+1) and deflated_score = raw - p95(null). Deterministic given the seed (C1). - total_pips arm: a closed-form expected-max-of-K dispersion floor (inv_norm_cdf + expected_max_of_normals), no probability. The record (FamilySelection on RunManifest) rides the proven serde(default, skip_serializing_if) widening + a compat.rs mirror, so legacy runs.jsonl/families.jsonl lines load unchanged and unstamped sweep/mc/standalone manifests stay byte-identical (C14/C18). The SelectionMode enum reserves a Plateau slot for #145. CLI: walk-forward stamps both arms; runs family <id> rank surfaces a human-readable deflated/overfit line. Quality review (re-dispatched after the implement-loop's quality gate exhausted) caught a real defect: on the R arm with positive resamples but no member carrying trade_rs (a family loaded from disk — trade_rs is serde-skipped), the null was all-NEG_INFINITY, turning deflated_score into +inf. Fixed by collapsing "no usable null" (zero resamples OR no trade_rs) into one degenerate floor (deflated == raw, overfit == 1.0); pinned by optimize_deflated_no_trade_rs_floors_instead_of_infinity. Verified: cargo test --workspace and cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -D warnings both green. Frictionless Stage-1 R; n_eff advisory and reload-time recompute deferred (spec 0076 Out of scope). closes #144 |

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): 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 |

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.

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).

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.

fix(aura-ingest): express unbounded M1 window bounds via Option<i64>
load_m1_window took (from_ms: i64, to_ms: i64) and forwarded
Some(from_ms)/Some(to_ms) into stream_m1_windowed, throwing away the
underlying API's per-bound Option<i64> (None = unbounded). There was thus
no way to express an open upper bound, and the natural i64::MAX sentinel
overflowed chrono's from_timestamp_millis inside data-server's coarse
unix_ms_to_year_month file filter, panicking the whole ingest.
Thread Option<i64> through both bounds unchanged, so None = unbounded
matches the underlying contract and 'to the end of history' needs no
sentinel. Rejected the alternative of clamping a too-large bound to a
ceiling constant: a ceiling is not actually unbounded (it silently drops
any post-ceiling bar) and reintroduces a magic literal; restoring the
Option makes the open bound structurally expressible instead.

feat(aura-ingest): data-server M1 ingestion at the one merge boundary
aura's first real data source (closes #7, Walking-skeleton milestone). A new aura-ingest workspace crate transposes data-server's AoS M1Parsed records into SoA base columns (C7), normalizes Unix-ms to canonical epoch-ns at the one ingestion boundary (C3), and feeds the existing k-way merge a real close-price stream so a backtest runs over real bars, deterministically (C1). Surface: - unix_ms_to_epoch_ns(time_ms) -> Timestamp (= ms * 1_000_000), the single C3 unit normalization. - M1Columns: the OHLCV bar as a bundle of base columns (open/high/low/close/ spread: f64, volume: i64, ts: epoch-ns) — SoA, C7. - transpose_m1(&[M1Parsed]) -> M1Columns: pure AoS->SoA (C1). - M1Columns::close_stream() -> Vec<(Timestamp, Scalar)>: the price input the SMA-cross sample strategy consumes. - load_m1_window(server, symbol, from_ms, to_ms): drains data-server's chronological chunks, transposes once at the boundary. Design (per spec 0011): - Eager materialization, not a lazy/shared Source abstraction: C12's cross-sim Arc<[T]> sharing has no consumer until the multi-sim orchestration cycle; deferred, the transpose logic carries over. - aura-ingest is the external-dependency firewall. data-server transitively pulls chrono + regex + zip (+ their trees) into Cargo.lock; isolating it in this one crate keeps aura-core/std/engine zero-external-dependency and the frozen deploy artifact (C6 replays recorded streams, never re-ingests) clean. cargo test --workspace now needs a populated cargo cache (one Gitea fetch, done). - Scope: boundary + tests only, no aura run CLI arg surface (M1 first; tick and the CLI wiring are follow-ups). Tests: 6 hermetic unit tests on hand-built M1Parsed (normalization, field-wise transpose, purity, close_stream order, empty edges) + one gated integration test (tests/real_bars.rs) that runs the cycle-0007 sample harness over real AAPL.US 2006-08 close bars and asserts finite metrics + two-run bit-identical JSON (C1); it skips cleanly where /mnt/tickdata is absent. On this machine it ran the real path. Workspace gates green: test (86), clippy -D warnings, doc -D warnings. Minor: transient unused-import warnings in the new lib.rs across the additive build steps resolved once load_m1_window consumed the imports; final -D warnings gate clean. |
