jgrusewski ef35b10f3e refactor(ml-alpha): drop competitive-gate machinery — stacked is default
Per user direction "no gating, this is the new default": the stacked
Mamba2 -> CfC -> heads design is THE production architecture. There's
no competing-baseline comparison to run. Validation reduces to normal
training metrics (per-horizon val AUC, train loss curve, sanity floor
of >0.5 AUC).

Deletions:
  - crates/ml-alpha/src/gate/cfc_vs_mamba2.rs (gate verdict logic)
  - crates/ml-alpha/src/gate/mod.rs
  - crates/ml-alpha/examples/alpha_gate.rs (gate runner binary)

Renames:
  - crates/ml-alpha/src/gate/auc.rs -> crates/ml-alpha/src/eval/auc.rs
  - lib.rs: pub mod gate -> pub mod eval (gate implied comparison;
    eval doesn't)

Spec amendments:
  - Drop the "Gate baseline strategy" amendment (committed earlier
    this session)
  - Reframe the stacked-architecture amendment as a "decision" not a
    "gate"; production path is unambiguous
  - Reframe Section 4 "Validation gate: CfC must meet Mamba2" -> just
    "Validation: per-horizon val AUC" with the >0.5 sanity floor

Doc cleanups: stale "Mamba2 gate baseline" mentions in build.rs and
pinned_mem.rs replaced with neutral wording. The Argo template
comment about "downstream gate consumption" becomes "for monitoring".

Test status: all 26+ ml-alpha tests pass. AUC tests (6/6) still pass
under the eval:: namespace.

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
