jgrusewski d6bfad7033 docs(sp20): consolidate Phase 5 audit-doc + close-out
Replaces the per-commit audit-doc entries from commits 1-3 with a single
consolidated Phase 5 close-out entry. The consolidated entry covers:

  - The full design rationale: gate the REWARD (not the target); avoids
    needing q_mean_a entirely. At low aux confidence, r_used → 0 ⇒
    Bellman target collapses to gamma * Q(s', a').
  - All 5 components: trainer buffer, FusedTrainerCtx accessor, training
    loop wire-up, kernel signature + gate, launcher arg.
  - NULL-tolerance contract: aux_conf_at_state == NULL OR isv_signals
    == NULL ⇒ gate = 1.0 (identity).
  - Default-state semantics: alloc_zeros 0.0 sentinel → gate ≈ 0.12 →
    reward mostly suppressed pre-population (graceful degradation).
  - reward_bias interaction (composes cleanly — gate damps reward
    pre-projection, reward_bias lifts target Q-mean per-branch).
  - Plan accuracy errata: the user spec's "add aux_conf_at_state_buf
    field to GpuBatch struct" was unnecessary — GpuBatch doesn't
    carry the SP13 B1.1b aux_sign_labels_ptr either; both follow the
    "trainer-only buffer + direct-gather" pattern.
  - Test coverage: 3 CPU math tests + 1 GPU behavioral integration test.
  - Confidence: medium-high that the gate fires correctly on real data;
    end-to-end smoke validation deferred (no smokes dispatched per
    controller instruction).

Building

# Check compilation (no PostgreSQL required)
SQLX_OFFLINE=true cargo check --workspace

# 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
