A scaffolded implementation run for four batch-3/4 forex features, with its loop contract merged and the loop parked in a session awaiting a trigger.

What it measured

Quantity	Value	Meaning
Features in declared scope	4 (#25, #55, #57, #72)
Feature pages built	0 — all four are placeholders
Contract	merged as mql5#109

How it ran

Firing	What it did
00	Campaign scaffolded, loop contract merged, loop parked awaiting a trigger

What it produced

A merged loop contract (mql5#109)
Four placeholder feature pages and a campaign board

Carries forward

Nothing. The follow-on 2026-06-24 campaign shipped a different pair of features from the same batch, and the batch-5-10 run superseded this scope.

Why this status

Settled by OPERATOR RULING, 2026-08-14. Recorded honestly: the file evidence read as never-triggered — the handoff says the loop is idle awaiting a trigger and all four feature pages read 'QUEUED — not started', while the page chrome claimed it was running. That false-live claim is corrected by this settlement; the prior reading is preserved in the ledger.

'campaign scaffolded; LOOP_CONTRACT merged to mql5 main. Loop idle, awaiting your trigger. Blockers: none.' — settled by operator ruling 2026-08-14.

🪙 FOREX 4× IMPLEMENT-TODAY ROBUST LOOP (R1–R7) 2026-06-17 · running

Forex Batch-3/4 — 4× Feature Implementation

A live, autonomous /loop on bigblack that ports the four implement-today batch-3/4 orthogonal features into real fxview_cache.forex_bars columns — one human-merged PR per feature. It reuses the engineering of the previous nine and makes it more robust. This page updates every iteration; the flowcharts below show exactly where the loop is.

In plain terms

We discovered 15 genuinely-new "shape of the market" measurements. Four of them can ship today with zero guesswork because each one either (a) re-uses a measuring tool we already built and froze, or (b) has a recipe with no open choices. The other 11 wait — 2 need data we don't store, and 9 need a human to pin one convention first.

#25 pomeau_irreversibility_lag1 — does the price rise and fall with different "shapes"? (a standalone time-asymmetry number).
#55 hvg_degree_assortativity — in the bar's visibility-graph, do busy peaks connect to busy peaks? Re-uses the shipped #54 graph builder.
#57 hvg_mean_shortest_path — how "small-world" is that same graph? Re-uses the same #54 graph builder.
#72 psd_wiener_spectral_flatness — is the bar tonal (one rhythm) or noisy (broadband)? Re-uses the shipped #75 spectrum.

Why this loop is more robust than the previous nine

The previous nine ran their parameterless/agnostic re-audit on 2026-06-09 — after the loop had already started — and only then discovered two candidates were unportable. This loop front-loads every such test into each iteration, so nothing is found after the fact.

Gate	What it guarantees, before any PR opens
R1	robustness Front-loaded agnostic TEST-B convergence oracle (the exact test that caught #30/#17 post-hoc) runs every iteration.
R2	robustness Shipped-primitive reuse assertion — #55/#57 must consume #54's HVG byte-identically; #72 must consume #75's PSD. No re-implementation.
R3	robustness The full SOTA suite (parity · 3-way FOSS · property · crash-stress · batch≡streaming · ≥2-symbol · golden) is a hard definition-of-done, run in-loop.
R4	No split-brain — schema DDL + metadata + BarRow + cohort + sha256 land in the same PR; `test_schema_contract` green.
R5	Adversarial Attacker+Defender per feature, explicitly tasked to re-run the historically-post-hoc parameterless/agnostic audit.
R6	HTML flowchart exposure every iteration (this page) — blockers and robustness wins marked on the chart.
R7	Loop self-blocks on red gates — never `--no-verify`, never weakens a gate, never touches the anchor blocklist.

⚑ Operator morning handoff

State: campaign scaffolded; LOOP_CONTRACT merged to mql5 main (PR #109). Loop idle in tmux forex-4x-impl, awaiting your trigger.
Blockers: none.
Robustness found / applied vs deferred: R1 probe-vendoring queued in iter-0 bootstrap (the prior session's vendor of agnostic/parameterless probes did not land — the loop re-vendors them first).
Next: you squash-merge each per-feature PR; the loop proceeds 25 → 55 → 57 → 72.

Iteration log

One page per loop iteration. Each overview-flowchart node above is clickable and links here; the loop overwrites the matching page when it reaches that iteration.

Implementation flowcharts

One overview + one per feature. The loop draws a feature's chart before implementing it and restyles nodes each iteration.
