ISV Slot Allocation Registry

Source of truth for ISV bus slot allocations. Every slot has a named constant in gpu_dqn_trainer.rs. This doc is the cross-reference.

Design: layout fingerprint, not schema version. ISV[115..117) carries a compile-time structural hash of the slot layout. Checkpoint load is fail-fast; no migration functions exist. Backward compat is structurally unwritable (there is no ordered version space to pair migrations against). See spec §4.A.2.

Tail placement rationale: The fingerprint occupies the current tail ([115..117)) rather than the head because isv_signals[0] and isv_signals[1] are actively written by isv_signal_update (Q-drift EMA and gradient-norm EMA respectively). Inserting at the head would displace those live signals and require shifting every upstream literal in experience_kernels.cu. The fingerprint moves to the new tail each time new slots are appended to the bus.

Current ISV_TOTAL_DIM: 171 (post-SP4 Task A1 reservation extending the bus from 131 → 171 with 40 contiguous magnitude/EMA-rate/regularization-bound slots at [131..171); SP4 slots are reservation-only and zero-initialized until subsequent layer-B/C tasks land producers). Producers and consumers for slots [0..131) are wired across Plan 1, Plan 2 (Task 1 C.1, Task 3 D.2 per-branch gamma, Task 6C D.8 TLOB), Plan 3 (Task 1 C.2 reward-component EMAs, Task 3 B.2 trade-attempt novelty, Task 4 B.4 readiness-EMA, Task 7 C.3 state-distribution KL, Task 8 B.3 GPU-only seed warm-start, Task 9 C.5 CQL α ramp), Plan 4 (Task 5 Mode A E.5 attention-focus EMAs, follow-up target-drift EMAs, Task 6 C.A multi-task aux head EMAs, Task 6 / Plan 5 follow-up label-scale EMA, MoE expert-utilisation + gate-entropy EMAs + adaptive-lambda controller, Q-drift-rate diagnostic, fold warmup factor).

Frozen at epoch 5 from measured TRADE_ATTEMPT_RATE_EMA (min 0.001). Pre-freeze the slot is 0 and the bonus site gates on target_raw > 1e-6f, so the reward term is structurally inert until the freeze fires.

Cold-start 1.0 so derived threshold = 0.5 matches the previous static default. Drives slot 49 producer-only — consumers unchanged.

Cold-start 1.0 — neutral element behind consumers' fmaxf(1.0, …) guard. When train/val distributions diverge, both Flat opp-cost and trade-attempt bonus scale up together. Per pearl_one_unbounded_signal_per_reward.md: amp is bounded so it stacks safely with B.1's q_abs_ref unbounded multiplicand.

Producer upgraded SchemaContract → FoldReset by Plan 3 Task 9 C.5: per-epoch GPU kernel EMAs slot 48 toward config.cql_alpha × max(0, 1 - ISV[SEED_FRAC_EMA_INDEX=84]). During seed phase (frac=1), target=0 → CQL α decays to 0 (no pessimism on exploration data); as frac → 0, α ramps to config.cql_alpha (full pessimism on network-driven trajectories).

GPU-incremented by n_samples_this_step per collect_experiences_gpu call, capped at TARGET. Cold-start 0; fold-boundary reset re-applies.

Cold-start 1.0 (fully in seed phase) so Task 9's CQL ramp sees target = final × max(0, 1 - 1.0) = 0 until the seed phase actually decays.

SP4: Signal-driven magnitude bounds (Layer A reservation)

SP4 Task A1 extends ISV_TOTAL_DIM from 131 → 171 by reserving 40 contiguous slots at indices [131..171) for the signal-driven bounds that replace hardcoded magnitude multipliers in SP3 mechanisms. Constants live in crates/ml/src/cuda_pipeline/sp4_isv_slots.rs and are re-exported from cuda_pipeline::mod. Layer A is reservation-only — no producer kernels or consumers are wired yet. All 40 slots remain zero-initialized at construction and behave as no-ops until subsequent SP4 tasks land producers.

Index	Name constant	Family	Purpose
[131]	TARGET_Q_BOUND_INDEX	scalar	p99(|target_q|) — Mech 1 clamp bound
[132..136)	ATOM_POS_BOUND_BASE + branch	per-branch	p99(|atom_positions[branch]|) — Mech 2 clamp

[152..160)	ADAM_V_BOUND_BASE + group	per-param-group	p99(|adam_v|) — Mech 5 diagnostic
[160..168)	WD_RATE_BASE + group	per-param-group	EMA of |w·g|/||w||² — AdamW weight_decay arg
[168]	GRAD_CLIP_BOUND_INDEX	scalar	p99(grad_norm) — Mech 6 adaptive_clip upper bound
[169]	H_S2_BOUND_INDEX	scalar	p99(|h_s2|) — Mech 10 clamp bound
[170]	L1_LAMBDA_TRUNK_INDEX	scalar (group-0 only)	(mean|g|/mean|w|) × entropy_deficit — trunk L1 lambda

Param-group ordering (ParamGroup enum, all 8 groups [0..8)): DqnTrunk=0, DqnValue=1, DqnBranches=2, Iqn=3, IqlHigh=4, IqlLow=5, Attn=6, Curiosity=7. Convenience const fn accessors weight_bound(g), adam_m_bound(g), adam_v_bound(g), wd_rate(g), atom_pos_bound(branch) return the absolute slot index for a given group/branch.

Producers and consumers will be wired in subsequent SP4 layer-B and layer-C tasks; until then the 40 slots are zero-initialized and reserved.

SP5: Per-branch + per-group adaptation layer (Task A0 reservation)

SP5 Task A0 extends ISV_TOTAL_DIM from 173 → 286 by reserving 110 slots at [174..278) ∪ [280..286). An intentional 2-slot carve-out gap at [278..280) separates the per-fold block from the cross-fold-persistent Kelly block. Constants live in crates/ml/src/cuda_pipeline/sp5_isv_slots.rs.
