jgrusewski 45b203e31e feat(ml-alpha): Mamba2CfcTrainer — stacked Mamba2 -> CfC -> heads
Realizes the 2026-05-16 spec amendment merging Mamba2 + CfC into one
stacked architecture (vs the original "compete via gate" framing).

Forward chain:
  snap_features × seq_len
   -> window pack [1, seq_len, FEATURE_DIM]
   -> Mamba2Block.forward_train -> (logit, cache.h_enriched [1, hidden_dim])
   -> cfc_step(x=h_enriched, h_old=0) -> h_new
   -> heads -> probs [5]
   -> BCE(probs, labels)

Backward chain:
  BCE -> grad_probs
   -> heads_backward -> grad_h_new + grad_W_heads, grad_b_heads
   -> cfc_step_backward -> grad_W_in, grad_W_rec, grad_b + grad_x (=grad_h_enriched)
   -> Mamba2.backward_from_h_enriched(&cache, &grad_h_enriched_tensor)
      -> Mamba2BackwardGrads (full 9-tensor gradient set)

Optimizers (6 total):
  - 5 CfC AdamWs (W_in, W_rec, b, heads_w, heads_b) — reused from
    PerceptionTrainer's per-param-group pattern
  - 1 Mamba2AdamW for all 9 Mamba2 parameter tensors (existing
    implementation in mamba2_block.rs)

Synthetic-overfit on constant +1 direction (seq_len=16, state_dim=8,
lr_cfc=3e-3, lr_mamba2=1e-3, 250 steps):
  initial_avg=0.5951 → final_avg=0.1917 (68% drop, well past 40% gate).
  Monotone descent at all 5 progress checkpoints.

Architectural note (v1): CfC runs with h_old=0 each step (no inter-
step recurrence). With h_old=0, the CfC layer is effectively per-cell
tau-scaled tanh FC. Inter-step CfC state (h_old carrying between
calls) is a v2 extension once the cluster gate validates the v1
foundation.

The cluster gate (Task 18) now has the actual stacked production
trainer to deploy, not a CfC-alone-vs-Mamba2-alone bench.

Building

# Check compilation (no PostgreSQL required)

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
