fix(class-a-audit-batch-4b): plan_threshold floor adaptive + MIN_HOLD_TEMPERATURE ISV-driven

Per Class A audit-fix Batch 4-B (final 2 of 4 deferred items from
P1-wiring/P1-producer). Completes the 8-commit WR-plateau intervention
chain. Validation deferred to next L40S smoke.

Item 3: plan_threshold adaptive floor (Design Y - inline producer)
  - NEW slot PLAN_THRESHOLD_FLOOR_ADAPTIVE_INDEX=459
  - Writes slow-EMA shadow of `0.5 * readiness_ema` from inside the
    existing update kernel (no new file, no new launch).
  - Pearl-A first-observation bootstrap (sentinel 0.1 matches pre-fix
    hardcoded value for bit-identical cold-start) + Welford alpha=0.005
    slow EMA.
  - Bilateral clamp [0.05, 0.50] (probability units) per
    pearl_symmetric_clamp_audit.
  - Consumer reads isv[459] as the floor in the same launch's final
    fmaxf; cold-start sentinel REPLACES with threshold_target so the
    pre-fix `fmaxf(0.1, 0.5*ema)` semantic is preserved bit-identical
    for any readiness EMA above 0.20.

Item 4: MIN_HOLD_TEMPERATURE -> ISV-driven (driving signal: dir_acc skill)
  - NEW slot MIN_HOLD_TEMPERATURE_ADAPTIVE_INDEX=460
  - NEW kernel min_hold_temperature_update_kernel.cu (single-thread
    cold-path, per-epoch boundary launch).
  - Driving signal: dir_acc skill = clamp((short_ema - 0.5)/0.5, 0, 1)
    from ISV[AUX_DIR_ACC_SHORT_EMA_INDEX=373]. When committing skillfully
    (high dir_acc) -> temp HIGH (permissive). When at random baseline
    (~0.5) -> temp LOW (sharp commitment pressure). Substituted for
    the audit-spec's `dir_entropy_deficit` because no dir_entropy ISV
    slot exists - dir_acc skill is the closest semantically-equivalent
    signal that preserves the spec intent.
  - Pearl-A bootstrap (sentinel 50.0 matches the deleted
    MIN_HOLD_TEMPERATURE_START=50 anchor) + alpha=0.05 mid-cadence EMA.
  - Bounds [5, 50] (matches the deleted schedule range).
  - Decouples temperature from epoch number - the old schedule pinned
    LOW temp (sharp) at end of training, exactly when a WR-plateaued
    model needed forgiveness to escape.
  - DELETED: state_layout.cuh::MIN_HOLD_TEMPERATURE_{START, END, DECAY}
    #defines + training_loop.rs::min_hold_temperature_for_epoch helper
    function (kept docstring tombstone explaining the deletion). Both
    call sites migrated to the new ISV reader. Per
    feedback_no_legacy_aliases + feedback_no_partial_refactor.

ISV_TOTAL_DIM: 459 -> 461.

Cumulative WR-plateau fix series (final commit, #8):

/* ══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
* Class A audit-fix Batch 4-B — adaptive MIN_HOLD_TEMPERATURE producer
* (2026-05-08, Item 4).
*
* Replaces the deleted epoch-driven anneal schedule
* `T_end + (T_start - T_end) × exp(-epoch / decay)`
* (formerly state_layout.cuh::MIN_HOLD_TEMPERATURE_{START=50, END=5,
* DECAY=20} + training_loop.rs::min_hold_temperature_for_epoch) with an
* ISV-driven signal-driven temperature derived from the model's
* directional-accuracy skill. The temperature controls the
* `deficit / (deficit + T)` saturation factor in `compute_min_hold_penalty`
* (trade_physics.cuh:575): HIGH T = forgiving (gradient is gentle near
* deficit=0); LOW T = sharp (penalty rises steeply at any deficit).
*
* Why this matters (per Class A audit deferred-item batch 4-B):
*
* The epoch-driven schedule pinned LOW temp (T=5, sharp) at end of
* training. This works ONLY if the model gets more skilled with
* training — which is exactly the assumption that fails when WR
* plateaus. Maximum punishment is delivered exactly when the model
* most needs forgiveness to escape the plateau. The signal-driven
* replacement decouples temperature from epoch number: when the
* model is committing skillfully (dir_acc > 0.5) → temp HIGH
* (permissive); when at random baseline (dir_acc ≈ 0.5) → temp LOW
* (sharp commitment pressure to escape the random-guess regime).
*
* Driving signal: dir_acc skill from
* `ISV[AUX_DIR_ACC_SHORT_EMA_INDEX=373]` — the SP13 fast EMA of
* binary directional accuracy (sentinel 0.5 = random baseline).
*
* skill = clamp((short_ema - 0.5) / 0.5, 0, 1) ∈ [0, 1]
* temp = TEMP_MIN + (TEMP_MAX - TEMP_MIN) × skill
*
* - skill=0 (no directional skill, dir_acc ≤ 0.5) → temp=TEMP_MIN=5
* - skill=1 (saturated dir_acc=1.0) → temp=TEMP_MAX=50
*
* Cold-start fallback: if `isv[AUX_DIR_ACC_SHORT_EMA_INDEX]` is at
* sentinel (within EPS of 0.5) — i.e. fold reset just fired and no
* dir-acc samples have landed yet — fall back to the seeded
* SENTINEL_MIN_HOLD_TEMPERATURE (50.0, matches the pre-fix
* MIN_HOLD_TEMPERATURE_START=50 epoch-0 anchor). Bit-identical
* cold-start under the deleted schedule, which also had T=50 at
* epoch 0.
*
* Algorithm (single-block single-thread — cold path, per-epoch boundary):
*
* Phase 1 (single thread): read short_ema and current temp from ISV.
*
* Phase 2 (Pearl-A + EMA): if dir_acc EMA is at sentinel 0.5 (within
* EPS), keep ISV slot unchanged — sentinel persists; consumer falls
* back to the kernel-passed scalar (seeded at
* MIN_HOLD_TEMPERATURE_FALLBACK=50.0). Otherwise:
*
* skill = max(0, min(1, (short_ema - 0.5) / 0.5))
* target_temp = TEMP_MIN + (TEMP_MAX - TEMP_MIN) × skill
* bilateral clamp to [TEMP_MIN, TEMP_MAX]
*
* Pearl-A bootstrap: if current is at sentinel (within EPS of 50.0),
* REPLACE directly with target_temp. Otherwise EMA blend with α=0.05
* (mid-cadence — slower than per-step skill EMA, faster than per-fold
* beliefs).
*
* Pearls + invariants:
*
* - `feedback_no_atomicadd.md` — single-thread kernel; no reductions.
*
* - `pearl_no_host_branches_in_captured_graph.md` — `CudaFunction`
* pre-loaded at construction; on-device guards for sentinel
* detection.
*
* - `pearl_first_observation_bootstrap.md` — first valid skill
* observation replaces sentinel directly; no blend.
*
* - `feedback_no_stubs.md` — full body, no return-zero placeholders.
*
* - `feedback_isv_for_adaptive_bounds.md` — bounds [5, 50] are
* dimensional safety floors (matches the original schedule range),
* NOT tuning.
*
* - `pearl_symmetric_clamp_audit.md` — bilateral
* `fmaxf(lo, fminf(x, hi))` clamp on target_temp before writing.
*
* Args:
* isv — `[ISV_TOTAL_DIM]` device f32, modified
* in place at index `temp_idx`.
* temp_idx — MIN_HOLD_TEMPERATURE_ADAPTIVE_INDEX (460).
* dir_acc_idx — AUX_DIR_ACC_SHORT_EMA_INDEX (373).
* sentinel_temp — SENTINEL_MIN_HOLD_TEMPERATURE (50.0).
* sentinel_dir_acc — DIR_ACC_RANDOM_BASELINE (0.5; sp13
* DIR_ACC_EMA_SENTINEL).
* temp_min — MIN_HOLD_TEMPERATURE_MIN (5.0).

* alpha — MIN_HOLD_TEMPERATURE_EMA_ALPHA (0.05).

Decouples temperature from epoch number — when WR plateaus, the old schedule pinned LOW temp (sharp, T=5) at end of training (max punishment exactly when the model needed forgiveness to escape); the signal-driven version reacts to actual realized skill: dir_acc skillful (>0.5) → temp HIGH (permissive); dir_acc at random (≈0.5) → temp LOW (sharp commitment pressure).

Per `feedback_no_legacy_aliases.md` + `feedback_no_partial_refactor.md` the legacy schedule constants + helper function are deleted atomically.",

**Status:** Populated during Plan 1 Task 6 (A.5 orphan audit). Updated on every commit per Invariant 7.
## 2026-05-08 — Class A audit-fix Batch 4-B: plan_threshold floor adaptive + MIN_HOLD_TEMPERATURE ISV-driven
Per Class A audit-fix Batch 4-B (final 2 of 4 deferred items from P1-wiring/P1-producer). Completes the 8-commit WR-plateau intervention chain. Validation deferred to next L40S smoke.
### Item 3 — plan_threshold adaptive floor (NEW slot 459, Design Y inline producer)
**Consumer:** `crates/ml/src/cuda_pipeline/plan_threshold_update_kernel.cu:44` — pre-fix expression `fmaxf(0.1f, 0.5f * ema)` derives the plan-readiness gate threshold (slot 49) by clamping `0.5 × readiness_ema` to a minimum of `0.1f` literal. The `0.1f` is in probability units (matches the readiness EMA's units).
**Fix:** Replaced the hardcoded `0.1f` with an ISV-driven adaptive floor at slot 459 (`PLAN_THRESHOLD_FLOOR_ADAPTIVE_INDEX`). Design Y — INLINE producer in the same kernel (no new file, no separate launch). On each invocation the kernel:
1. Computes `threshold_target = 0.5 × readiness_ema` (unchanged).
2. Pearl-A first-observation bootstraps: if `prev_floor` is at sentinel 0.1 (within EPS) → REPLACES with `threshold_target`. Otherwise slow-EMA-blends with α=0.005.
3. Bilateral clamps the new floor to `[PLAN_THRESHOLD_FLOOR_MIN=0.05, PLAN_THRESHOLD_FLOOR_MAX=0.50]` per `pearl_symmetric_clamp_audit.md`.
4. Writes `isv[PLAN_THRESHOLD_FLOOR_ADAPTIVE_INDEX] = new_floor`.
5. Derives the live threshold: `isv[plan_threshold_idx] = fmaxf(new_floor, threshold_target)`.
**Why Design Y over Design X (separate producer kernel):** The kernel is single-block-single-thread cold-path (per-experience-collection-epoch). Adding an inline EMA write to the same slot requires only one extra ISV read + 4 fmaxf operations. A separate producer would add a new file + launch site + cubin + Ops struct + launcher fn + dispatch arm — pure overhead for cleanliness no one needed.
**Why ISV-driven:** The static `0.1f` was calibrated for one specific readiness distribution. When the policy's readiness EMA collapses to near-zero (e.g. early-fold cold-start or low-readiness regime), the static floor pinned `plan_threshold` at 0.1 in probability space — uncoupled from the realized signal. The adaptive floor moves with the realized distribution while the dimensional-safety bounds [0.05, 0.50] still guard against runaway. Per `feedback_isv_for_adaptive_bounds.md`.
**Cold-start fallback:** Producer's Pearl-A bootstrap handles this directly inside the kernel — first valid observation REPLACES the sentinel with `threshold_target` (same value the pre-fix code would produce when `0.5 × ema ≥ 0.1`). Bit-identical for any readiness EMA above 0.20 (where `0.5 × ema = 0.1` was the cliff). Below 0.20 the new behavior tracks `0.5 × ema` smoothly while old behavior was fixed at 0.1. This is the desired semantic.
**Slot allocation:** ISV[459..460) — `PLAN_THRESHOLD_FLOOR_ADAPTIVE_INDEX=459` (sentinel 0.1, bounds [0.05, 0.50], α=0.005). Locked by `sp14_audit_4b_plan_threshold_floor_slot_layout_locked` test in `sp14_isv_slots.rs`.
**Files affected:**
- `crates/ml/src/cuda_pipeline/plan_threshold_update_kernel.cu` — inline producer added (was 46 lines, now 96 lines with bootstrap + EMA + clamp + bounds).
- `crates/ml/src/cuda_pipeline/sp14_isv_slots.rs` — slot constants + locked-layout test.
- `crates/ml/src/cuda_pipeline/state_layout.cuh` — C #define mirrors.
- `crates/ml/src/cuda_pipeline/gpu_dqn_trainer.rs` — ISV_TOTAL_DIM bump 459 → 461 + layout fingerprint string.
- `crates/ml/src/trainers/dqn/state_reset_registry.rs``sp14_audit_4b_plan_threshold_floor_adaptive` registry entry.
- `crates/ml/src/trainers/dqn/trainer/training_loop.rs` — FoldReset dispatch arm.
- `crates/ml/tests/sp14_oracle_tests.rs` — 3 GPU oracle tests (Pearl-A bootstrap, slow EMA after bootstrap, bilateral clamp on extreme readiness).
### Item 4 — MIN_HOLD_TEMPERATURE → ISV-driven (NEW slot 460, dir_acc skill driving signal)
**Consumer:** `crates/ml/src/cuda_pipeline/trade_physics.cuh:567-577::compute_min_hold_penalty` — soft-saturation factor `deficit / (deficit + T)` where `T = min_hold_temperature` controls how sharply the min-hold penalty bites. HIGH T = forgiving; LOW T = sharp. The kernel takes `min_hold_temperature` as a runtime scalar, seeded by the training loop per-epoch.
**Fix:** Replaced the deleted epoch-driven anneal schedule
```
T(e) = T_end + (T_start - T_end) × exp(-e / decay)
```
(formerly `state_layout.cuh::MIN_HOLD_TEMPERATURE_{START=50, END=5, DECAY=20}` + `training_loop.rs::min_hold_temperature_for_epoch`) with an ISV-driven signal-driven temperature derived from the model's directional accuracy skill. Producer kernel: `min_hold_temperature_update_kernel.cu` (NEW file, single-thread cold-path, per-epoch boundary launch).
**Driving signal — dir_acc skill (NOT dir_entropy_deficit):**
The audit-spec called for `dir_entropy_deficit`. On verification, no `dir_entropy` slot exists in any ISV layout (only `val_dir_entropy` on CPU side via HEALTH_DIAG snapshots, and `ENTROPY_DIST_REF_INDEX=429` allocated but unused). The cleanest available signal is `ISV[AUX_DIR_ACC_SHORT_EMA_INDEX=373]` — the SP13 fast EMA of binary directional accuracy (sentinel 0.5 = random baseline). This serves as a parallel proxy for "model commits" via dir_acc skill:
```
skill = clamp((short_ema 0.5) / 0.5, 0, 1) ∈ [0, 1]
temp = TEMP_MIN + (TEMP_MAX TEMP_MIN) × skill
```
- skill=0 (no skill, dir_acc ≤ 0.5) → temp=TEMP_MIN=5 (sharp commitment pressure)
- skill=1 (saturated dir_acc=1.0) → temp=TEMP_MAX=50 (permissive — informed exits, no need to penalize sharply)
This matches the audit-spec semantic ("model commits → temp HIGH"). Skilled directional commitment IS the signal — using `dir_entropy_deficit` would have required either a new producer (out-of-scope) OR using the unused `ENTROPY_DIST_REF` slot which has no documented producer plan.
**Slot allocation:** ISV[460..461) — `MIN_HOLD_TEMPERATURE_ADAPTIVE_INDEX=460` (sentinel 50.0, bounds [5, 50], α=0.05). Locked by `sp14_audit_4b_min_hold_temperature_slot_layout_locked` test in `sp14_isv_slots.rs`.
**Why this matters (per Class A audit):** The epoch-driven schedule pinned LOW temp (T=5, sharp) at end of training. This works ONLY if the model gets more skilled with training — exactly the assumption that fails when WR plateaus. Maximum punishment is delivered exactly when the model most needs forgiveness to escape the plateau. The signal-driven replacement decouples temperature from epoch number: when the model is at random baseline (≈46-48% WR), dir_acc ≈ 0.5 → skill ≈ 0 → temp=5 (sharp), forcing commitment. When the model breaks through to dir_acc > 0.55, skill rises and temp climbs (permissive — let the model exit short trades on real signals).
**DELETED atomically:** Per `feedback_no_legacy_aliases.md` + `feedback_no_partial_refactor.md`:
1. `state_layout.cuh::MIN_HOLD_TEMPERATURE_{START, END, DECAY}` #defines.
2. `training_loop.rs::min_hold_temperature_for_epoch` helper function (kept the docstring as a tombstone explaining the deletion).
3. Both call sites in `training_loop.rs`:
- Line 2249 (config setup): now reads ISV[460] inline (with cold-start fallback to MIN_HOLD_TEMPERATURE_FALLBACK=50.0). Inlined rather than calling the `read_min_hold_temperature_from_isv` helper because `&mut self.gpu_experience_collector` already holds an exclusive borrow of `self` (same pattern as the sibling `noise_sigma_per_branch` read above).
- Line 5006 (HEALTH_DIAG diagnostic): now calls `self.read_min_hold_temperature_from_isv()` so the diagnostic mirrors the value the kernel actually used for this epoch's experience collection.
**Cold-start fallback:** When `ISV[460]` is at sentinel 50.0 (within EPS) OR outside [5, 50], the consumer falls back to `MIN_HOLD_TEMPERATURE_FALLBACK=50.0` — bit-identical to pre-Batch-4B epoch-0 behavior under the deleted MIN_HOLD_TEMPERATURE_START=50 anchor. The dir_acc EMA (slot 373) has FoldReset sentinel 0.5 (random baseline = sentinel), so on fold-0 the producer's first launch correctly skips the EMA update (sentinel preserves), keeping the temp at sentinel 50 → cold-start fallback fires.
**No TOML/YAML config migration needed:** Verified via grep — `MIN_HOLD_TEMPERATURE_*` constants are only referenced in Rust + CUDA source, not in any config file.
**Files affected:**
- `crates/ml/src/cuda_pipeline/min_hold_temperature_update_kernel.cu` — NEW file, ~155 lines.
- `crates/ml/src/cuda_pipeline/sp14_isv_slots.rs` — slot constants + locked-layout test.
- `crates/ml/src/cuda_pipeline/state_layout.cuh` — C #define mirrors + DELETED legacy `MIN_HOLD_TEMPERATURE_{START, END, DECAY}` constants (kept docstring tombstone).
- `crates/ml/src/cuda_pipeline/gpu_aux_trunk.rs``MinHoldTemperatureUpdateOps` struct + cubin wiring.
- `crates/ml/src/cuda_pipeline/gpu_dqn_trainer.rs` — cubin import, struct field, constructor, `launch_min_hold_temperature_update` fn.
- `crates/ml/src/cuda_pipeline/gpu_experience_collector.rs` — config-doc + default comment update.
- `crates/ml/build.rs` — kernel added to compile list.
- `crates/ml/src/trainers/dqn/state_reset_registry.rs``sp14_audit_4b_min_hold_temperature_adaptive` registry entry.
- `crates/ml/src/trainers/dqn/trainer/training_loop.rs` — DELETED `min_hold_temperature_for_epoch` body, DELETED both call sites, ADDED `read_min_hold_temperature_from_isv` helper, ADDED launcher invocation per-epoch, ADDED FoldReset dispatch arm.
- `crates/ml/tests/sp14_oracle_tests.rs` — 5 GPU oracle tests (Pearl-A bootstrap; sentinel dir_acc preserves ISV; high dir_acc → temp HIGH; low dir_acc → temp LOW; mid-cadence EMA after bootstrap).
### Verification
```
cargo check -p ml --tests --all-targets → PASS (19 unrelated warnings)
cargo test -p ml --lib --release sp14 → 16/16 PASS (slot layout locks)
cargo test -p ml --lib --release sp15 → 2/2 PASS (no SP15 regression)
cargo test -p ml --lib --release state_reset_registry → 4/4 PASS (dispatch coverage)
cargo test -p ml --test sp14_oracle_tests --release -- --ignored → 24/24 PASS (16 pre-existing + 8 new GPU oracles)
cargo test -p ml --test sp15_phase1_oracle_tests --release -- --ignored → 36/36 PASS (no SP15 regression)
```
ISV_TOTAL_DIM: 459 → 461.
### Concerns flagged from audit-spec verification
The audit-spec was correct on Item 3 (plan_threshold floor) — line 44, formula `fmaxf(0.1f, 0.5f * ema)`, `0.1f` is the absolute floor and `0.5f * ema` is the relative one. Picked Design Y (inline) per the audit's recommendation.
The audit-spec was **partially wrong on Item 4** in two ways:
1. **Driving signal:** `dir_entropy_deficit` does not exist as an ISV signal. No `dir_entropy` slot exists, only `val_dir_entropy` on CPU-side HEALTH_DIAG snapshots (post-validation, not consumable by GPU producers). `ENTROPY_DIST_REF_INDEX=429` is allocated but unused. Substituted `dir_acc skill` from `AUX_DIR_ACC_SHORT_EMA_INDEX=373` as the closest semantically-equivalent signal (parallel to entropy deficit: high skill = committed, low skill = uncertain). Mapping preserves the spec's intent ("model commits → temp HIGH").
2. **Slot allocation:** Audit-spec proposed slot 460 for MIN_HOLD_TEMPERATURE — confirmed and used.
This is the **7th time** the audit doc has been wrong (per the 6-prior-errors counter from the prompt). The verification heuristic in the prompt — "verify everything before editing" — caught this and prevented a wasted producer-kernel build (entropy slot would have errored at compile time).
Reading directly from `compute_min_hold_penalty` in `trade_physics.cuh:567-577` confirmed the consumer signature takes `min_hold_temperature` as a scalar parameter. Migrating to direct ISV read inside the kernel was an option, but kept the kernel signature stable to preserve the existing test scaffold (`sp12_reward_math_test_kernel.cu` at line 36 also uses the scalar arg). The training loop seeds the scalar from ISV[460] per-epoch — same indirection pattern as `effective_min_hold_target` (Class A P0-C, slot 451) which also maintains scalar-passed cold-start fallback alongside ISV consumer logic.
## 2026-05-08 — Class A audit-fix Batch 4-A: DD saturation floor adaptive + legacy DD path Case A
Per Class A audit-fix Batch 4-A (deferred from P1-wiring/P1-producer due to audit-doc errors). Fixes 2 of 4 deferred items; Batch 4-B handles plan_threshold floor + MIN_HOLD_TEMPERATURE in a separate commit.
