User correctly identified that CPU mirror function tests don't test
the production GPU code path. A bug shared between mirror and kernel
(translated identically wrong) would slip through. Mirror tests + a
single GPU bridge test were a weak compromise.
GPU-direct testing strategy:
- All Phase 0 kernel-correctness tests (0.A, 0.B, 0.C, 0.D, 0.F):
launch tiny test-only kernels with the SAME math the Phase 2
production kernel will use; assert properties of the output.
- Test 0.E (synthetic edge discovery): stays CPU. It tests an
ALGORITHMIC PROPERTY of Thompson exploration (does it discover
edge if edge exists?), not a kernel correctness property.
- All Phase 2 unit tests (2.A-2.D): GPU-direct against the
modified production kernel.
- Phase 0.F (real checkpoint extraction): unchanged — already GPU.
Local development uses RTX 3050 GPU (per memory user_dev_environment.md).
CI runs --ignored flag to skip GPU tests on CPU-only runners.
Time budget: Phase 0 was 1-2 days (CPU mirror); now 2-3 days
(GPU-direct, includes kernel wrapper setup half-day).
Other delta:
- Phase 0 deliverable file renamed: distributional_q.rs ->
distributional_q_tests.rs (no mirror functions, just tests +
kernel wrappers).
- Phase 2 unit tests rephrased to launch production kernel rather
than compare against CPU mirror.
- L1 verification gate runtime: seconds -> minutes (GPU launch
overhead per test).
The user's intuition was right: testing production directly is the
honest approach. Mirror was an optimization that traded correctness
for speed; with local GPU available the optimization isn't needed.

ML Models
Four production model architectures on Candle v0.9.1 with CUDA:
- DQN Rainbow -- Deep Q-Network with prioritized replay, dueling heads, noisy nets
- PPO -- Proximal Policy Optimization with GAE and LSTM policies
- TFT -- Temporal Fusion Transformer for multi-horizon forecasting
- Mamba2 -- State space model for sequence prediction
Each model has a standalone trainer and a UnifiedTrainable adapter for the hyperopt pipeline.
Infrastructure
- Git: Gitea at
git.fxhnt.ai(Tailscale-only), Scaleway DEV1-S - Observability: OpenTelemetry OTLP (env
OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT) - Database: PostgreSQL with SQLx offline mode for CI
