jgrusewski eb49e2a0f7 feat(alpha): Phase E.3 follow-up — C51 distributional Q + Thompson + L1-L10 depth + falsifications
C51 distributional Q-network with GPU Thompson selection borrowed
minimally from production (alpha_c51.cu: forward, project, grad,
expected_q, thompson_select kernels; ~260 lines). Uses Huber
negative-tail compression in projection per production
block_bellman_project_f. Action selection 100% GPU via mapped-pinned
i32 output + __threadfence_system + host volatile read (matches
gpu_training_guard MappedBuffer pattern).

Backtest result (2D sweep, 500 episodes per cell, 30 cells):
  cost=0    C51 +10.41 vs linear-Q -15.72  (+26pt, BEATS Phase 1d.4
                                            no-RL baseline +4.4 by 6pt)
  cost=0.125 C51 -13.81 vs -29.17  (+15pt closes half-tick gap)
Win rate at cost=0 best τ: linear-Q 0.008 → C51 0.552.

Calibration hypothesis vindicated; documented in
memory/pearl_c51_thompson_closed_phase_e3_gap.md.

Also in this commit (Phase E.3 follow-up cleanup):
- --pruned-actions falsified (2.4× worse Sharpe). Documented in
  memory/pearl_action_pruning_falsified.md.
- --real-spread falsified for ES futures (76% of bars at 1-tick floor).
- SnapshotRow bid_l/ask_l extended from [f32; 3] to [f32; 10].
  L4-L10 synthesized in this commit; real MBP-10 peek lands in E.4.A T5.
- docs/isv-slots.md updated per kernel-audit-doc hook requirement.

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
