## 🎯 System Overview

Foxhunt is a high-frequency trading system built in Rust with ML/AI-powered decision making. It uses a microservices architecture with gRPC communication, PostgreSQL for persistence, and advanced ML models (MAMBA-2, DQN, PPO, TFT, TLOB).

**Core Principle**: **REUSE existing infrastructure. DO NOT rebuild components.**

### Component Responsibilities

-   **API Gateway**: Single entry point, JWT + MFA auth, rate limiting, audit logging, routing for 37 gRPC methods.
-   **Trading Agent Service**: Orchestrates trading decisions (universe/asset selection, portfolio allocation) and sends orders to the Trading Service. Performance: <5s end-to-end decision loop.
-   **Trading Service**: Executes orders, manages positions, and tracks PnL.
-   **Backtesting Service**: Tests strategies using real DBN data with high-speed loading (0.70ms) and automatic price anomaly correction.
-   **ML Training Service**: Manages the model training pipeline, feature engineering, and hyperparameter tuning (Optuna). GPU-accelerated (RTX 3050 Ti) for all models, including MAMBA-2.

## 🔑 Infrastructure & Credentials

### Docker Services
```bash
docker-compose up -d      # Start all services
docker-compose ps         # Verify health
```

### Service Credentials
-   **PostgreSQL (TimescaleDB)**: `postgresql://foxhunt:foxhunt_dev_password@localhost:5432/foxhunt`
-   **Redis**: `redis://localhost:6379`
-   **Vault**: `http://localhost:8200` (Token: `foxhunt-dev-root`)
-   **Grafana**: `http://localhost:3000` (admin/foxhunt123)
-   **Prometheus**: `http://localhost:9090`
-   **InfluxDB**: `http://localhost:8086` (foxhunt/foxhunt_dev_password)

### Service Ports
| Service | gRPC | Health | Metrics |
|---|---|---|---|
| API Gateway | 50051 | 8080 | 9091 |
| Trading Service | 50052 | 8081 | 9092 |
| Backtesting Service | 50053 | 8082 | 9093 |
| ML Training Service | 50054 | 8095 | 9094 |

### GPU/CUDA Configuration
-   **RTX 3050 Ti** - CUDA enabled for ML training and inference.
-   **Environment**: `CUDA_HOME`, `LD_LIBRARY_PATH`, and `PATH` are pre-configured.
-   **Verification**: `nvidia-smi` and `nvcc --version`.
-   **Usage**: `let device = Device::cuda_if_available(0)?;` (auto-fallback to CPU).

---

## 🚫 Critical Architectural Rules

1.  **Configuration Management**: ONLY the `config` crate accesses Vault. All services use `config::ConfigManager`.
2.  **TLI Architecture**: The TLI is a **PURE CLIENT**. It has NO server components and connects ONLY to the API Gateway.
3.  **Service Boundaries**: All inter-service communication is via gRPC. The Trading Agent decides, and the Trading Service executes.
4.  **Error Handling**: Use `CommonError` factory methods (`CommonError::config`, `CommonError::network`, etc.).
5.  **Port Validation**: Services must fail-fast on port conflicts. Use `lsof -i :<port>` to debug.

## 🔒 Security & Best Practices

-   **Development**: Use `.env` files (gitignored), no hardcoded credentials.
-   **Production**: Use Vault for all secrets, enable MFA, rotate JWT secrets, use TLS for gRPC, and enable audit logging.
-   **Anti-Workaround Protocol**: Fix root causes, do not use stubs or placeholders, and reuse existing infrastructure.
