Unused Imports	1-2	Low	None	⏳ OPTIONAL (cleanup)
Unused Assignments	4	Low	None (orchestrator.rs)	⏳ OPTIONAL (cleanup)
Missing Debug Impl	24	Low	None (runtime unaffected)	⏳ OPTIONAL (cleanup)
Unused Must Use	5	Medium	None (test code)	⏳ OPTIONAL (fix test code)

Total Warnings: 103-107 across all benchmarks Blocking Warnings: 0 Errors: 0

6.2 Notable Warnings

ml/src/regime/orchestrator.rs (4 unused assignments):

264: let mut cusum_s_plus = 0.0;   // value assigned is never read
265: let mut cusum_s_minus = 0.0;  // value assigned is never read
272: cusum_s_plus = s_plus;        // value assigned is never read
273: cusum_s_minus = s_minus;      // value assigned is never read

Impact: None - these are intermediate variables that may be used in future debug code Action: ⏳ OPTIONAL - Remove if confirmed unused, or add debug logging

common/src/regime_persistence.rs (1 missing Debug implementation):

80: pub struct RegimePersistenceManager { ... }

Impact: None - Debug trait not required for production code Action: ⏳ OPTIONAL - Add #[derive(Debug)] for better developer experience

6.3 Cleanup Recommendations

Priority: LOW - None of these warnings affect runtime performance or correctness

1. Remove unused dependencies (67-72 warnings)

   • Command: cargo machete or manual Cargo.toml cleanup
   • Estimated effort: 2-3 hours
   • Benefit: Faster compile times (5-10%)

2. Fix unused assignments (4 warnings in orchestrator.rs)

   • Remove or add _ prefix to variable names
   • Estimated effort: 5 minutes
   • Benefit: Cleaner code, fewer warnings

3. Add Debug implementations (24 warnings)

   • Add #[derive(Debug)] to structs
   • Estimated effort: 30 minutes
   • Benefit: Better debugging experience

Recommendation: Defer cleanup to post-production deployment. Current priority is validating production readiness, not code hygiene.
