jgrusewski 9cfc6d8502 feat(alpha): phase_e_random_baseline example + reset_at extension
Phase E.0 Task 7b. Random-uniform policy reward baseline binary, plus a
small `ExecutionEnv::reset_at(seed, start_cursor)` extension so episodes
can sample random starting points across a long snapshot replay.

The binary loads MBP-10 snapshots, constructs SnapshotRow values (with
L2/L3 synthesized at ±0.25-tick offsets per the L1-only parser
limitation), loads the fitted FillModel from JSON, then runs N random
episodes from random start cursors. Reports mean / std / quintile
percentiles + kill threshold (mean + 2σ) for E.1 to exceed.

Smoke run (500 episodes, horizon 600, 100K snapshots):
  mean = -5600 (dominated by terminal force-close variance + market-order
                 over-reliance because fit converged to β_spread = -40
                 → limit fill probability ~0 at typical spreads)
  std  = 5383
  p95  = -895
  kill threshold (mean + 2σ) = +5167

The deeply negative baseline is correct *for this env* even though it
doesn't reflect realistic random-policy P&L. The DQN will face the same
env (same fill model, same cost structure), so the comparison stays
fair. Fitter regularisation (to prevent β_spread runaway) is a Phase E.1
follow-up.

Run:
  cargo run -p ml --release --example phase_e_random_baseline -- \
    --mbp10-dir /home/jgrusewski/Work/foxhunt/test_data/futures-baseline-mbp10/ES.FUT \
    --fill-coeffs config/ml/phase_e_fill_coeffs.json \
    --horizon 600 \
    --n-episodes 10000 \
    --out-path config/ml/phase_e_random_baseline.json

env.reset_at also called by reset() (1-line refactor); no behavior change.

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
