jgrusewski e393a8af89 chore(cleanup): Cleanup Wave 3 - Archive reports, organize docs, fix security issues
## Summary
Third major cleanup wave after investigating 287 remaining root files.
Archived historical reports, organized documentation, removed regeneratable
artifacts, and fixed critical security issue.

## Files Cleaned (119 total)
- Archived: 78 files (7 WAVE reports + 71 summaries) → docs/archive/
- Archived: 7 build logs → docs/archive/build_logs/
- Organized: 10 markdown files → docs/guides/ + docs/checklists/
- Deleted: 17 test/coverage artifacts (regeneratable)
- Deleted: 7 empty/obsolete files (docker override, clippy baselines)
- Deleted: 3 large files (119MB - .venv, ppo_hyperopt_output.txt, backup)

## Space Recovered
- Total: ~120.7 MB
- Large files: 119.25 MB (.venv, ppo_hyperopt_output.txt)
- Archives: 1.04 MB (summaries + build logs)
- Test artifacts: 980 KB

## Security Fix (CRITICAL)
- Fixed: certs/security.env removed from git tracking (contained JWT secrets)
- Updated: .gitignore to prevent future tracking of sensitive cert files
- Removed: 4 files from git history (security.env, production.env.template, *.serial)

## Documentation Organization
- Created: docs/archive/ (wave_reports/, summaries/, build_logs/)
- Created: docs/guides/ (7 detailed implementation guides)
- Created: docs/checklists/ (3 operational checklists)
- Retained: 30 essential .md files in root (quick refs, CLAUDE.md)

## Investigation Reports Created
- MARKDOWN_ORGANIZATION_REPORT.md
- TXT_FILES_INVENTORY_AND_ARCHIVAL_PLAN.md
- ROOT_CONFIG_FILES_ANALYSIS_REPORT.md
- DOCKER_ROOT_FILES_ANALYSIS.md
- DATABASE_INITIALIZATION_AND_SETUP_ANALYSIS.md
- (6 additional investigation/index files)

## Cleanup Wave Progress
- Wave 1: 899 files deleted (1,071,884 lines)
- Wave 2: 543 files archived/deleted (~34GB)
- Wave 3: 119 files archived/deleted/organized (~121MB)
- Total: 1,561 files cleaned, ~35.1GB space recovered

## Result
Root directory: 287 files → ~180 files (excluding investigation reports)
Clean, organized, production-ready structure maintained.

assets_selected: 0,
avg_composite_score: 0.0,
min_score: 0.0,

},
timestamp: ...,
}
Portfolio Allocation (allocation.rs, Lines 1-6):
- 6 lines total
- Pure stub: "// Stub implementation - to be filled in future agents"
- No algorithms implemented
- No position sizing logic
================================================================================
CRITICAL GAPS FOR WAVE C
================================================================================
Gap 1: No Real-Time Feature Extraction in Asset Selection
Current: select_assets() returns empty vector
Needed: Integrate MLFeatureExtractor for each asset
Impact: Required for Wave C feature utilization
Gap 2: Feature-Blind Scoring
Current: calculate_momentum/value/liquidity use external inputs
Needed: Map 26-dim features to composite scores
Impact: Enables adaptive weighting by feature regime
Gap 3: No Portfolio Allocation
Current: allocation.rs is pure stub
Needed: 5 allocation strategies (Equal-Weight, Risk Parity, Mean-Variance, ML-Optimized, Kelly)
Impact: Blocks position sizing and portfolio optimization
Gap 4: Feature Regime Not Utilized
Current: Feature extraction exists but regime classification missing
Needed: Market regime detection (structural breaks, volatility regimes)
Impact: Prevents adaptive strategy switching (Wave C requirement)
================================================================================
WAVE C INTEGRATION ROADMAP
================================================================================
Phase 1: Connect Feature Extraction to Asset Scoring (Week 1-2)
Files: assets.rs, service.rs, ml_strategy.rs
Work: ~500-800 LOC
- Modify calculate_momentum_score(): Extract from features[0] + RSI/MACD/ADX
- Modify calculate_value_score(): Use Bollinger bands + RSI + Williams %R
- Modify calculate_liquidity_score(): Use volume features + OBV/MFI
- Implement select_assets() gRPC method
Phase 2: Portfolio Allocation Algorithms (Week 3)
Files: allocation.rs + new submodules
Work: ~800-1,200 LOC
- equal_weight.rs (50 LOC)
- risk_parity.rs (150 LOC)
- mean_variance.rs (200 LOC)
- ml_optimized.rs (150 LOC)
- kelly_criterion.rs (100 LOC)
- Integration and testing (600+ LOC)
Phase 3: Wave C Features (Weeks 4-6)
Features:
- Fractional differentiation (structural memory preservation)
- Meta-labeling signals (precision improvement)
- Adaptive barriers (regime-aware thresholding)
Work: ~1,500-2,000 LOC
Expected Performance Improvement:
- Win rate: +15-25% (from 41.81% baseline)
- Sharpe ratio: +7 points (from -6.5192 to 0.5-1.0)

CONCLUSION
================================================================================
Current State:
- Trading Agent Service has sound architecture but incomplete implementation
- Asset scoring system is production-ready but disconnected from features
- Feature extraction systems are operational but siloed
- Portfolio allocation is entirely unimplemented
Feature Integration Status:
- Wave A features (26 indicators): Complete, extracted, not used
- Wave B features (alternative bars): Implemented, not used in Trading Agent
- Wave C features (fractional diff, meta-labeling): Not yet implemented
Next Steps:
1. Connect feature extraction to asset scoring (Phase 1)
2. Implement portfolio allocation (Phase 2)
3. Add Wave C features (Phase 3)
4. Expected outcome: 15-25% win rate improvement, Sharpe +7 points
Estimated Timeline: 4-6 weeks for full Wave C implementation
