Subject: [PATCH] fix(argo): skip fxcache for alpha-rl (reads MBP-10 directly)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

alpha_rl_train reads MBP-10 data with its own predecoded cache —
it never uses the fxcache pipeline. Skip the 15-minute feature
extraction step entirely for model=alpha-rl by depending only on
ensure-binary + gpu-warmup.
