- Create ml/eval/elo_tracker.py:
- EloTracker class with standard ELO formula (K=32, start=1200)
- EloResult dataclass for tournament output
- EloHistory class for JSON persistence (data/elo_history.json)
- run_elo_tournament(): round-robin ELO-rated matches using
existing run_match() from tournament.py
- run_generation_tournament(): discovers gen-*/best_policy.pt
checkpoints and runs cross-generation ELO tournament
- CLI entry point: python -m ml.eval.elo_tracker
- Add ELO API endpoints to routes/ml.py:
- POST /api/ml/elo/tournament — start background ELO tournament
- GET /api/ml/elo/tournament/status — poll progress
- GET /api/ml/elo/history — load ELO history from disk
- Integrate ELO convergence in distillation_loop.py:
- New config fields: elo_convergence_enabled (default False),
elo_convergence_threshold (20.0), elo_tournament_episodes (30)
- New field: GenerationRecord.elo_rating
- _run_elo_mini_tournament() runs after quality gate pass
- _check_convergence() checks ELO delta when enabled
- Add ELO UI to distillation page:
- ELO Ratings panel with canvas multi-line chart showing per-model
ELO progression across generations
- Run Tournament button with progress indicator
- ELO leaderboard table with rank, rating, and visual bars
- Responsive chart resize handling
