# Foxhunt Dependency Analysis

## Current Dependency Structure

### Layer 1: Foundation
- **foxhunt-core**: Base types, trading primitives, performance infrastructure

### Layer 2: Domain Libraries
- **risk**: Risk management, VaR, Kelly sizing (depends: foxhunt-core)
- **data**: Market data ingestion, broker connectivity (depends: foxhunt-core)  
- **ml**: Machine learning models, inference (depends: foxhunt-core)

### Layer 3: Integration Libraries  
- **backtesting**: Strategy testing (depends: foxhunt-core, ml)
- **tli**: Terminal interface (depends: foxhunt-core)
- **adaptive-strategy**: Strategy framework (depends: foxhunt-core, ml, risk, data)

### Layer 4: Services
- **trading_service**: Main trading service (depends: foxhunt-core, risk, ml, data)
- **backtesting_service**: Backtesting service (depends: foxhunt-core, risk, data, adaptive-strategy)

## Identified Issues

### ✅ FIXED: ML → Risk Circular Dependency
- **Status**: RESOLVED 
- **Fix**: Removed `risk = { workspace = true }` from ml/Cargo.toml
- **Comment**: "# REMOVED: risk = { workspace = true } # CIRCULAR DEPENDENCY FIX"

### Potential Issues to Check:
1. **TLI Dependencies**: Currently commented out data, risk, ml dependencies
2. **Workspace Dependency Cleanup**: Remove any unused dependencies
3. **Service Layer**: Verify services don't create cycles
4. **Commented Dependencies**: Clean up commented-out dependencies

## Validation Status
- [x] ML → Risk circular dependency removed
- [ ] All Cargo.toml files validated for clean dependencies  
- [ ] Commented dependencies cleaned up
- [ ] Workspace compilation verified
