Fourth of five sequential plans decomposing the DQN v2 unified spec
(docs/superpowers/specs/2026-04-24-dqn-v2-unified-design.md §4.E).
Covers the six Part E IN decisions:
- §4.E.1 TFT Variable Selection Network across 6 feature groups
(market/OFI/TLOB/MTF/portfolio/plan_isv) with vsn_feature_selection kernel
- §4.E.2 Gated Residual Network — CONDITIONAL branch (ADOPT vs CANONICALISE)
based on docs/ml-supervised-to-dqn-concept-audit.md row
- §4.E.3 Multi-quantile IQN heads (5/25/50/75/95) replacing single CVaR output
- §4.E.4 Encoder-Decoder separation — explicit StateEncoder + per-branch
ValueDecoder with D.3 horizon-decomposed V_short/V_long sub-heads
- §4.E.5 Attention-weight interpretability — 7 new ISV slots [65..72) for
per-group attention focus EMAs + Mamba2 retention proxy
- §4.E.6 Multi-task auxiliary heads — next-bar return MSE + 5-bar regime CE,
ISV-coupled aux-weight schedule (sharpe-reactive)
ISV_TOTAL_DIM seals at 72 with this plan's allocations. Part E audit doc
closes out all rows (zero TBD/evaluate remain per Invariant 9).
Plan structure: 8 tasks (6 feature tasks + audit close-out + validation).
TDD-disciplined steps. Task 2 documents the CONDITIONAL branch decision
pathway explicitly (ADOPT vs CANONICALISE Branch A/B structure).
Plan 4 exit gate: Tier 1 convergence RETAINED (no regression vs Plan 3
baseline) + aux heads produce measurable signal. Tier 2 + Tier 3 checked
by Plan 5.
Preserves all 9 invariants. Zero stubs. Zero TODO/FIXME. Every Part E item
either lands fully or is explicit OUT (xLSTM, KAN); no third path.
