## ⚠️ Blockers & Resolutions

### 1. MAMBA-2 Device Mismatch ❌
- **Issue**: Nested modules don't auto-migrate to CUDA
- **Fix**: Add `.to_device(&device)` to 19 locations (Agent 73 plan)
- **Time**: 4-6 hours
- **Priority**: MEDIUM

### 2. TFT CUDA Layer-Norm ❌
- **Issue**: candle-core lacks CUDA kernels for layer-norm
- **Workaround**: CPU training (0h, ~10x slower) or wait for upstream (1-2 weeks)
- **Time**: 0 hours (CPU fallback) or 1-2 weeks (upstream fix)
- **Priority**: LOW

### 3. TLOB Level-2 Data ❌
- **Issue**: L2 order book data not downloaded
- **Fix**: Execute Agent 77 (API update, 2-4h) → Agent 81 (download, 2-4h)
- **Cost**: $12-$25
- **Time**: 4-8 hours total
- **Priority**: MEDIUM

## 🎓 Key Lessons

### ✅ What Worked
1. **Phased Approach**: Research → Implementation → Validation → Documentation
2. **GPU Validation First**: Benchmarking before 4-6 week training commitment
3. **Infrastructure-First**: S3, versioning, monitoring ready before training
4. **Comprehensive Docs**: 15+ reports, 50K+ words (reproducibility + knowledge transfer)

### ⚠️ What Needs Improvement
1. **Sequential Agent Execution**: Agents 76-77 not executed, blocking Agents 80-83
2. **Dependency Chain Mgmt**: Agent 83 blocked by 81, blocked by 77
3. **Benchmark Completeness**: MAMBA-2/TFT benchmarks missing (Agent 86 discovery)
4. **Blockers Not Resolved**: Agent 76/77 pending, blocking 3/5 models
