jgrusewski 7e7c8b5d90 feat(rl): R6 — replace LobEnv with kernel-driven GPU-pure env step
Replaces the flawed Phase F+G LobEnv trait + LobSimEnvAdapter +
MockLobEnv fixture with a GPU-pure env-interaction path.

DELETED:
- LobEnv trait (host-method-per-batch surface)
- MockLobEnv fixture (the toy-bandit pattern that hid the production defects)

ADDED:
- RlLobBackend trait (src/rl/reward.rs): narrow device-oriented
  surface (apply_snapshot, pos_and_market_targets_mut, pos_d,
  pos_bytes, step_fill_from_market_targets, n_backtests). Single
  purpose: break the ml-alpha ↔ ml-backtesting dep cycle. No
  mocking layer.

- 3 new GPU-pure kernels (cuda/):
  * extract_realized_pnl_delta.cu — reads pos.realized_pnl +
    position_lots from device Pos array, writes per-batch
    (reward delta, done flag), updates trainer's prev_* buffers.
  * apply_reward_scale.cu — element-wise rewards *= ISV[406].
  * actions_to_market_targets.cu — 9-action grid → market_targets
    {side, size} on device, reading current position_lots for
    conditional Flat-from-Long/Short.

- LobSimCuda impls RlLobBackend (ml-backtesting/src/sim/mod.rs)
  plus a new step_fill_from_market_targets entry that runs
  submit_market_immediate + step_pnl_track without the host-side
  targets-vec build. pos_and_market_targets_mut returns disjoint
  field borrows (&pos_d, &mut market_targets_d).

- IntegratedTrainer: 3 cubin includes, 3 module/function fields,
  launch_apply_reward_scale launcher, prev_realized_pnl_d /
  prev_position_lots_d / rewards_d / dones_d buffers,
  step_with_lobsim signature switched to RlLobBackend, body's
  Step 5 rewritten as kernel-driven (no per-batch host loop, no
  individual submit_action calls).

R6 PARTIAL — work R7 lifts:
- Thompson + log_pi stay host (R7 uses R4 kernels)
- mean_abs_pnl EMA stays host (R7 uses R3 ema_update_on_done)
- Advantage/return stays host (R7 uses R3 compute_advantage_return)
- 4 final DtoH copies for step_synthetic's host-slice signature
  (R7 lifts step_after_encoder_forward to device-buffer args)
The "DtoH the device rewards/dones at end" comment in
step_with_lobsim documents the boundary. After R7, hot path has
zero host loops other than the now-unused Thompson host loop
(which R7 retires in favour of rl_action_kernel from R4).

Tests:
- integrated_trainer_smoke.rs: rewritten — real LobSimCuda with
  synthetic book, one step_with_lobsim call, asserts finite losses
  + λs sum to 1. Smoke gate, not a convergence test.
- dqn_toy.rs, ppo_toy.rs: retired (empty stubs documenting
  rationale). Files preserved so rename history survives. The
  MockLobEnv toy-bandit pattern intrinsically couldn't catch the
  production defects #1, #2, #5 that motivated this rebuild.

ml-backtesting added as ml-alpha dev-dep (cycle-safe: production
direction is ml-backtesting → ml-alpha; dev edge only loads when
building ml-alpha's own tests/examples).

Build cache-bust v29. cargo check + cargo build for all R-phase
tests green (pre-existing heads_bit_equiv index-OOB persists).

Building

# Check compilation (no PostgreSQL required)

# Run tests for a specific crate
SQLX_OFFLINE=true cargo test -p <crate> --lib

# Clippy

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
