Two related changes installing the structural guard against the SP6 Pearl 5
IQN τ failure mode (root cause fixed at facbf76eb for that one site) and
removing the only remaining orphan callers of the broken pattern.
The bug class. The mapped_pinned::{upload,clone_to_device}_{f32,i32}_via_pinned
helpers are named to suggest "no HtoD per feedback_no_htod_htoh_only_mapped_pinned"
but their bodies do MappedXBuffer::new() + memcpy_dtod_async() +
stream.synchronize(). The DtoD copy and synchronize are both forbidden
inside CUDA Graph capture (CUDA_ERROR_STREAM_CAPTURE_INVALIDATED) and add a
host stall otherwise. The canonical pattern is MappedXBuffer stored directly
+ write_from_slice + kernel reads via .dev_ptr, used by SP4 portfolio_state
and SP6 IQN τ at facbf76eb.
Guard. New check_no_dtod_via_pinned in pre-commit-hook.sh rejects any
staged .rs file calling upload_(f32|i32)_via_pinned or
clone_to_device_(f32|i32)_via_pinned, except mapped_pinned.rs itself. Per
feedback_no_hiding: no suppression marker. Also fixes a pre-existing
silent-skip bug: the gpu-hotpath-guard.sh invocation used
$(cd "$(dirname "$0")" && pwd) which resolved to .git/hooks/ (the symlink's
directory) instead of scripts/, so the guard never ran. Replaced with
readlink -f "$0" + an explicit "guard missing" error branch — silent skip
is worse than no guard.
Orphan deletion. gpu_her.rs carried legacy relabel_batch, generate_random_donors
(CPU), HerBatch, slice_clone_f32, slice_clone_i32 — zero production callers
(verified via grep). Production uses relabel_batch_with_strategy +
generate_random_donors_gpu. The orphan held the only upload_i32_via_pinned
callers in the codebase; per feedback_no_hiding the right fix is delete.
Scope. Eliminates 2 of 47 production *_via_pinned call sites. Remaining 45
across 14 files are cold-path init — graph-capture-fragile and host-stalling
but not breaking operationally. Guard enforces no new calls; existing 45
migrate in subsequent atomic per-buffer commits. After all 45 are converted,
the four helpers themselves get deleted from mapped_pinned.rs.
Validation. Smoke smoke-test-82fjk at facbf76eb succeeded — magnitude
differentiation restored (q_full=0.462 > q_half=0.409 > q_quarter=0.350 vs
baseline frozen Pascal-triangle 0.225/0.280/0.495), eval distribution
unfrozen (eq=0.596, eh=0.404, ef=0.000 vs baseline single-action collapse).

Implements spec §4.A.2 structural layout fingerprint with tail placement
rather than head placement (spec alternative: §4.A.2 Step 5.3 alt).
Head placement (ISV[0..2)) was rejected because isv_signals[0] and [1]
are actively written by the isv_signal_update kernel (Q-drift EMA and
gradient-norm EMA). Shifting those would require updating every literal
reference in experience_kernels.cu — a larger change than warranted for
pure contract enforcement. Tail placement leaves all existing indices
intact, touches zero kernel .cu files, and fulfils the same design contract.
Key changes:
- ISV_LAYOUT_FINGERPRINT_LO_INDEX = 37, HI_INDEX = 38 (u64 across 2×f32).
- LAYOUT_FINGERPRINT_CURRENT: u64 = FNV-1a of slot-list seed bytes.
Value: 0x85d4d76b578a7c17. Any slot change updates seed bytes,
which updates the hash automatically.
- Constructor writes fingerprint after zero-init; calls
check_layout_fingerprint() to self-verify before returning.
- check_layout_fingerprint(): reads pinned slots [37..39), recomposes u64,
fails-fast on mismatch with "retrain required" message.
- Error message does NOT mention migration as an option.
- Pre-commit hook rejects `fn migrate_isv|upgrade_isv` names — makes the
no-migration rule structurally enforced (check_no_isv_migrations).
- ISV_TOTAL_DIM: 37 → 39.
- Zero existing index shifts (no kernel literal sites affected).
- StateResetRegistry entry renamed ISV_SCHEMA_VERSION → ISV_LAYOUT_FINGERPRINT.
- ResetCategory::SchemaContract docstring updated to remove "migration" framing.
- docs/isv-slots.md: updated table + design note for tail placement.
Tests: state_reset_registry 3 unit tests pass with renamed entry.
cargo check -p ml clean (pre-existing warnings only).
Plan 1 Task 5. Spec §4.A.2 (tail-placement alternative).

Plan 1 Task 1. Creates the five audit docs plus config/metric-bands.toml
that track Invariants 2, 7, 8 per the DQN v2 spec, and extends the
pre-commit hook with two checks:
- component-adding commits must touch an audit doc (Invariant 7)
- added code may not contain TODO/FIXME/XXX/HACK/TBD/unimplemented!/
todo! markers (Invariant 9)
Tests: manually verified by staging a TODO-marked file; commit
rejected with the correct error message.

Restore 45-action factored space via Branching DQN (Tavakoli 2018),
outputting 11 Q-values (5+3+3) instead of 45. This was reduced to 5
exposure-only actions during debugging and was never intended as permanent.
- Enable use_branching: true by default in DQNConfig and DQNHyperparameters
- Add branching paths to select_action_with_confidence and select_action_inference
- Update agent.rs select_action_factored for branching-aware selection
- Expand CountBonus to per-branch tracking with bonuses_branched()
- Add order_type + urgency distribution tracking in monitoring
- Add DQN_ORDER_ACTIONS=3, DQN_URGENCY_ACTIONS=3, DQN_TOTAL_ACTIONS=45 to CUDA header
- Fix 7 pre-existing clippy doc_markdown errors in regime_conditional.rs
- Fix pre-existing cognitive_complexity in replay_buffer_type.rs (extract helpers)
- Fix flaky GPU test OOM under parallel execution (CPU fallback + test VRAM safety)
- Delete unused flash_attention submodules (block_sparse, causal_masking, etc.)
- Add GPU hot-path guard scripts and ensemble/hyperopt adapter improvements
Tests: ml-dqn 416/0, ml 905/0, clippy 0 errors on both crates

Backs up the .git/hooks/pre-commit hook to a tracked file.
Includes stub detection (hardcoded returns, marker strings).
Cargo check removed — agents validate before commit.
