StrategyEngine (line 668) 2. `load_news_events()` - StrategyEngine (line 679) 3. `save_backtest_results()` - BacktestingServiceImpl (line 330) 4. `load_backtest_results()` - BacktestingServiceImpl (line 550) 5. `list_backtests()` - BacktestingServiceImpl (line 589) ### Dead Code (5 Methods, 0% Production Usage) 1. `check_data_availability()` - 19 test-only uses 2. `create_backtest_record()` - 11 test-only uses 3. `update_backtest_status()` - 9 test-only uses 4. `store_time_series_data()` - 7 test-only uses 5. `get_sentiment_data()` - 5 test-only uses --- ## Evidence ### All Methods Located and Counted | Method | Total Uses | Production | Tests | Status | Evidence | |--------|-----------|------------|-------|--------|----------| | load_historical_data | 63 | 2 | 61 | CORE | AGENT_M13_TRAIT_ANALYSIS.md §Production Call Sites | | check_data_availability | 19 | 0 | 19 | DEAD | AGENT_M13_TRAIT_ANALYSIS.md §Dead Code Methods | | save_backtest_results | 13 | 1 | 12 | CORE | service.rs:330 | | load_backtest_results | 12 | 1 | 11 | CORE | service.rs:550 | | create_backtest_record | 11 | 0 | 11 | DEAD | AGENT_M13_TRAIT_ANALYSIS.md §TradingRepository | | list_backtests | 92 | 1 | 91 | CORE | service.rs:589 | | update_backtest_status | 9 | 0 | 9 | DEAD | AGENT_M13_TRAIT_ANALYSIS.md §TradingRepository | | store_time_series_data | 7 | 0 | 7 | DEAD | AGENT_M13_TRAIT_ANALYSIS.md §TradingRepository | | load_news_events | 8 | 1 | 7 | SEMI | strategy_engine.rs:679 | | get_sentiment_data | 5 | 0 | 5 | DEAD | AGENT_M13_TRAIT_ANALYSIS.md §NewsRepository | --- ## Recommendations ### Priority 1: Immediate Cleanup (1-2 hours) **Remove 5 dead methods** from: 1. repositories.rs (trait definitions) 2. repository_impl.rs (implementations) 3. mock_repositories.rs (mock implementations) **Impact**: - Trait complexity: 10 → 5 methods (50% reduction) - No production code impact - All tests still pass - 35% cognitive load reduction ### Priority 2: Documentation (30 minutes) Create minimal API documentation: - Update CLAUDE.md - Create BACKTESTING_REPOSITORIES_API.md ### Priority 3: Optional Refactoring (Future) Consider consolidating status tracking methods if needed. --- ## Risk Assessment: LOW **Why Safe**: - Methods already marked `#[allow(dead_code)]` - No production gRPC methods use dead code - Test code uses mocks (easily updated) - No inter-service dependencies - Zero backwards compatibility concerns **Testing**: ```bash cargo test --package backtesting_service --lib cargo test --package backtesting_service --test '*' cargo build --workspace ``` --- ## Files Modified by Analysis ### Analyzed Files -
