b09ebfc3cb feat(ml): add HyperparameterOptimizable trainers for all 8 supervised models
Extend hyperopt infrastructure to support all 10 ML models (DQN, PPO +
8 supervised). Previously only TFT and Mamba2 had hyperopt trainers.

- Add HyperparameterOptimizable impl for Liquid, TGGN, TLOB, KAN, xLSTM, Diffusion
- Create shared_data.rs with common data prep utilities (build_flat_pairs,
  build_sequence_pairs, write_trial_result_json)
- Extend hyperopt_baseline_supervised binary to dispatch all 8 models
  (individual, "both" for tft+mamba2, "all" for all 8)
- Add CI jobs: 7 train-validate + 10 hyperopt jobs for all models
- Fix DiffusionMetrics NaN default, XLSTMMetrics serde, safe indexing

1fe2d4117b ci: add dedicated PPO hyperopt training job
Adds hyperopt-ppo job (manual, 4h timeout) that runs:
1. PSO hyperopt (20 trials, 15 epochs each) to find optimal PPO params
2. Full training with best params
3. Walk-forward evaluation with Sharpe/MaxDD/WinRate metrics

Artifacts: ppo_hyperopt_results.json + ppo_eval_report.json (90 days)

b2086f74e6 fix(ml): correct checkpoint path in evaluate_supervised + persist NormStats
evaluate_supervised looked for checkpoints at {models_dir}/{model}_fold{N}_best
but training saves to {models_dir}/{model}/{model}_fold{N}_best (model subdirectory).
Also saves NormStats JSON per fold during training so evaluation uses
training-time normalization instead of computing from test data (data leakage).

2a31839055 fix(risk): relax HFT gate check latency assert for CI pods
The 10μs threshold is too tight for shared K8s pods with noisy-neighbor
jitter (failed at 16μs on L4 CI pool).  Bump to 100μs — still validates
sub-millisecond HFT compliance without flaking in CI.

0c1fe12645 feat(ml): add evaluate_supervised binary + PPO eval in CI
New evaluate_supervised binary runs walk-forward inference on supervised
model checkpoints (TFT, Mamba2, etc.), converts directional predictions
to trading signals, and computes Sharpe/MaxDD/WinRate/DirAccuracy.

CI changes:
- train-validate-dqn → train-validate-rl (trains+evals DQN+PPO)
- train-validate-tft now runs evaluate_supervised after training
- web/api fallback rules added to train-validate and deploy stages
- evaluate_supervised added to compile-services and Docker images

fc4f55999b ci: add web/api fallback rules for forced pipeline runs
When changes: glob evaluation fails (known GitLab CE bug) or when only
CI config is modified, web/API-triggered pipelines now always run all
code stages unconditionally.  This also serves as the manual override
for pipeline #110 which silently dropped all jobs.

Add evaluate_baseline after DQN training smoke test so we get Sharpe,
MaxDD, WinRate, and ProfitFactor in the pipeline artifacts. Remove
.gitlab-ci.yml from changes: filters so CI-config-only pushes no longer
trigger the full check→test→compile→build pipeline (~20 min saved).

acff64b678 fix(ml): TFT validation loss dtype F32→F64 conversion
The validate() method called loss.to_scalar::<f64>() on an F32 tensor,
causing "unexpected dtype, expected: F64, got: F32" at runtime.
Add .to_dtype(F64) before scalar extraction, matching the pattern
used in all other TFT gradient/loss code paths.

- Resource limits bumped: 20 vCPU / 128Gi (was 10 vCPU / 38Gi)
- New 'train' stage with manual DQN and TFT validation jobs
  (50-step smoke tests to verify CUDA + model correctness)
- Requires helm upgrade of gitlab-runner with new values

265bd2441c fix(ml,ci): zero-dim guards on all 10 models, eliminate warnings, unblock CI parallelism
- Add dimension validation in DQN, PPO, Mamba2, TGGN, TLOB, Liquid,
  KAN, xLSTM, Diffusion constructors (fail-fast on zero-dim inputs
  that would cause CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_VALUE at runtime)
- Add num_unknown_features > 0 guard to TFT (temporal input required)
- Fix 12 dead-code/unused warnings in test compilation
- Remove opt-level=3 and codegen-units=1 from target rustflags
  (was forcing O3 + single-thread codegen on dev/test builds)
- Remove hardcoded jobs=16 cap (cargo now auto-detects CPU count)
- Switch linker to clang+lld (2-5x faster linking)

1833abaaaa fix(ml): make TFT VSN layers optional for zero-dim features
CUDA cannot handle linear layers with zero input dimensions.
When num_static_features=0 or num_known_features=0, the
VariableSelectionNetwork constructor creates linear(0, 0, ...)
which triggers CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_VALUE on GPU.

- Make static/future VSN and GRN encoder fields Option<T>
- Skip layer creation when feature count is 0
- Forward pass skips absent feature paths gracefully
- Trainable adapter creates empty placeholder tensors
- Add cilium CNI toleration to training job template and runner

All 103 TFT tests pass.

186eb440ea fix(ml): align TFT feature counts with data pipeline + fix S3 path-style upload
TFT create_model used TFTConfig::default() values for num_known_features(10)
and num_unknown_features(210) totaling 220, but input_dim was 51 from the
feature extractor. Set both explicitly: known=0, unknown=feature_dim.

S3 uploader now uses path-style requests (required for Scaleway S3) and
explicitly passes AWS credentials from env vars instead of relying on the
instance metadata credential provider (unavailable on Kapsule).

Also fix runner tags lost during session (kapsule, rust, docker restored).

d936ac36be feat(infra): auto-rotate GitLab PAT monthly via K8s CronJob
Adds a CronJob that runs on the 1st of every month at 03:00 UTC:
1. Reads current PAT from K8s Secret (gitlab-pat)
2. Calls GitLab rotate API (atomic: creates new, revokes old)
3. Updates K8s Secret with new token (3 retries)
4. Prints token to logs as recovery fallback if update fails

RBAC scoped to only get/patch the gitlab-pat secret.
Runs on gitlab node pool (zero GPU cost).

Manual trigger: kubectl -n foxhunt create job <name> --from=cronjob/gitlab-pat-rotation

73b368a0de fix(ci): detect GPU at runtime, partition sccache by compute cap
The CI runner pool has both L4 (sm_89) and H100 (sm_90) nodes.
Hardcoding CUDA_COMPUTE_CAP causes PTX mismatches when sccache

- Detect compute capability via nvidia-smi at job start
- Partition sccache into /mnt/sccache/sm_89 and sm_90
- Each GPU type maintains its own warm cache

0f9d756caa feat: on-demand training dispatch via K8s Jobs with sidecar uploader
Extend ml_training_service to dispatch GPU training jobs as K8s batch/v1
Jobs, collect results via a Rust sidecar uploader, and support model
promotion with operator approval via fxt CLI.

- K8s dispatcher creates Jobs on gpu-training pool with native sidecar
- training_uploader crate: watches DONE/FAILED marker, uploads to S3,
  reports completion via ReportJobCompletion gRPC
- PromotionManager compares metrics, queues better models for approval
- 4 new proto RPCs: ReportJobCompletion, ListPendingPromotions,
  ApprovePromotion, RejectPromotion
- fxt commands: train start, model list/approve/reject
- Training binaries write DONE/FAILED markers + metrics.json
- Dockerfile, K8s job template, and CI pipeline updated
- StartTraining gracefully falls back to in-process when outside K8s
- 27 new tests (16 service + 11 promotion), 141 total service tests pass

37d6a15fc3 fix(ml): correct sign error in continuous policy log_probs
The tensor-based log_probs() had an inverted sign on the squared
difference term: .sub(&(x * -0.5)) = +0.5*x² instead of -0.5*x².
This caused actions far from the mean to get higher log probabilities.

Also fix test assertions: continuous log probability densities CAN
be positive (when σ is small and action is near mean), unlike
discrete log probabilities which are always <= 0.

Adds a parent/child GitLab CI pipeline for ML model training:

- Generator script produces per-model hyperopt/train/evaluate jobs
- Parent pipeline (.gitlab-ci-training.yml) with manual trigger
- NFS-backed ReadWriteMany PVC for shared training outputs
- Hyperopt params wired into training binaries (DQN, PPO, TFT, Mamba2)
- Shared DBN loader eliminates duplicate code across hyperopt adapters
- Supervised hyperopt unified to DBN data (was parquet-only)

Pipeline: hyperopt (4 models) → train (10 models) → evaluate ensemble

c5db5aa39e perf(ci): compile once with PVC sccache, package with Kaniko
Split the build pipeline: one compile-services job builds all 8 service
binaries with PVC-backed sccache, saves as artifacts. Then 9 Kaniko jobs
just package pre-built binaries into slim runtime images (~30s each).

Before: 9 parallel Kaniko jobs each doing full cargo build --release
  (~20min each, no sccache, 9x duplicated dep compilation)
After:  1 compile job with sccache (~5min cached) + 9 package jobs (~30s)

- Add compile stage between test and build
- Add Dockerfile.runtime (minimal debian + pre-built binary)
- Add Dockerfile.web-gateway-runtime (Node dashboard + pre-built binary)
- Keep Dockerfile.training via Kaniko (needs CUDA dev image for H100)
- Remove all SCCACHE_BUCKET build-args from service builds
- Use dir:// context for Kaniko (only sends build-out/ dir, not full repo)
