Wires the aux head's per-env directional probability into policy STATE
slot 121 (AUX_DIR_PROB_INDEX = PADDING_START + 0), preserving the trunk-
separation invariant from `pearl_separate_aux_trunk_when_shared_starves`.
H1 (label horizon) confirmed aux learns 78% dir-acc within-fold at H=200
but the policy was walled off; this commit conducts that signal through
the state input with a one-step lag.
Mechanism (rollout-time, collector-only)
────────────────────────────────────────
- State[env, t] reads `prev_aux_dir_prob[env]` (= p_up from step t-1).
- After aux forward at step t, the new copy kernel writes
`aux_softmax[env, 1]` → `prev_aux_dir_prob[env]` for step t+1.
- Cold-start + FoldReset seed the buffer to 0.5 (neutral; p_up = 50%)
via the pure-GPU `fill_f32` kernel — no HtoD per
`feedback_no_htod_htoh_only_mapped_pinned.md`.
- Launch sits in the same `isv_signals && trainer_params != 0` gate as
the aux forward, so when aux is skipped the cache keeps its previous
(sentinel or last-good) value instead of copying stale `alloc_zeros`.
Three state-gather kernels updated atomically (per
`feedback_no_partial_refactor.md`):
- `experience_state_gather` — training, reads `aux_dir_prob_per_env[i]`
- `backtest_state_gather` — eval (single-step), NULL → 0.5 (A3 fallback)
- `backtest_state_gather_chunk` — eval (chunked), NULL → 0.5 (A3 fallback)
`assemble_state` gained a 7th param `float aux_dir_prob` written to
`out[SL_PADDING_START + 0]`; the remaining 6 padding slots stay zero
for 8-alignment.
Phase 1 scope = training-side + eval A3 NULL fallback. A2 (aux trunk
forward in eval) is deferred per the runbook — gates on whether the
smoke moves WR off the 50.1–50.2% plateau.

Verification (all three gates clean, no smoke yet)

- cargo check -p ml --features cuda: 0 errors
- gpu_backtest_validation: 4/4 expected-passing tests still pass
(the 2 PnL-assertion failures are pre-existing per the runbook)
- compute-sanitizer --tool=memcheck: 0 CUDA errors

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
