momentum devandClaude Opus 5 45b0386347 feat: rank gappers by premarket range, the one measured predictor
Over 1,040 screened symbol-days (2026-08-01 on), asking which premarket
property predicts the session running >=50% open-to-high:

    premarket range   n     avg run   ran >=50%
    >= 30%           201     34.7%      15.9%
    15-30%           136     28.3%      14.7%
     5-15%           303     15.2%       5.9%
      < 5%           400     16.8%       4.3%

A name that already travelled >=15% premarket is 3.1x more likely to run
>=50% (15.4% vs 5.0%) -- the largest single lift in this dataset, and free:
it comes off minute bars the arm pass has already fetched.

Two findings constrain the shape:

  - It is a STEP at 15%, not a gradient (15-30% and >=30% are 14.7 vs 15.9;
    5-15% and <5% are 5.9 vs 4.3). So the multiplier is a threshold. A linear
    scale would invent precision the data does not support.

  - Premarket VOLUME carries NO signal (10.0/4.2/7.9/9.0% across participation
    buckets, non-monotonic) and raw premarket volume runs inversely to the
    outcome. scanner_snapshots.premarket_volume being NULL costs nothing;
    range is the field that mattered all along.

Do not expect 3x. Replaying armed-set selection over the same 29 sessions,
top-5 by mean/median run and >=50% runners captured out of 145 slots:

    gap x rvol (baseline)        39.77% / 10.97%   27
    x3.0 if PM range >= 15%      42.00% / 13.16%   32
    HARD FILTER >= 15%           37.27% / 12.67%   24   <- worse
    PM range alone               32.86% / 12.65%   20   <- much worse

gap x rvol already encodes much of the same information, so the marginal gain
is ~+2 points of mean run and 4-5 extra big runners per 145 slots. It is
BOOST-only for a reason: gating on this feature scored below baseline, and it
must never replace gap/rvol. Every threshold in 10-20% and gain in 1.5-5.0 beat
baseline -- a flat plateau, so not fitted. The shipped 15%/3.0x are the measured
step and the measured lift, not the sweep's peak cell.

Fail-open: an unknown range yields a neutral 1.0, never a penalty.

momentum devandClaude Opus 5 ff63b19e91 Merge: exit retune, news pipeline restore, sizing and watcher fixes
Five fixes from the 2026-09-13 live-account investigation:

  aae7269  exits stopped amputating winners (9.3% of the move captured on
           trades that ran >=20%; winners held 10 min vs 19 for losers)
  9b4c8e5  news ranking had been off since 2026-08-03, two days before the
           first real-money fill -- and could not be seen to be off
  0910e29  track the live overrides seed that LIVE-CUTOVER.md references
  9034839  a zero equity reading sized off the $100k default (latent)
  97a3a1b  watcher stops scoring names the entry path can never accept
           (3.1 GB of a 7.6 GB events table)

Config changes are already applied to config_overrides on the live stack.
This merge is what ships the CODE half to the image.

momentum devandClaude Opus 5 97a3a1b29d perf: stop the watcher scoring names that can never trade
criteria_evaluated + signal_blocked held 3.1 GB of a 7.6 GB events table.
On 2026-09-10 alone the watcher wrote 191,458 criteria receipts across 57
symbols -- ~3,359 per symbol per day -- and 154,260 of them (80.6%) were
for names whose static open gap was outside the tradeable band. NOK, NIO,
PATH, PLUG, SOFI, AAL and F all sit inside the $2-20 price filter, so
WATCHER_PRICE_MIN/MAX admits them; only the gap floor excludes them, and
that was checked per-tick instead of once up front.

Apply the SHARED population gate (strategy/population.population_reject --
the same function, same config the entry path already enforces) before the
evaluation and its receipts. This is behaviour-preserving for trading: those
names were being scored, emitted, and then rejected downstream anyway --
429 "outside tradeable population" risk events across 221 symbols, led by
exactly the names that top the receipt counts. The decision just moves
upstream of the write.

Details that matter:

  - The verdict is recomputed each tick, never cached. A >150% gapper reads
    "squeeze unverified" on thin volume and is admitted once rvol confirms;
    a cached rejection would bench it for the session.
  - _transition only emits on CHANGE, so a rejected symbol costs one
    state event per session and is then silent.
  - Fail-open throughout: an unreadable open, a missing previous close or
    absent volume returns None, so a data gap can never bench a symbol.
  - Gap is the STATIC OPEN gap (session open vs previous close), fixed for
    the day, not the live price -- the verdict must not wander intraday.

Off by default (population=None) so every existing caller and test keeps
its current behaviour; the live loop opts in, and WATCHER_POPULATION_GATE=0
restores the old path.

Note for diagnostics: momentum_cli's criteria views now show only names
inside the population. That is the intended trade -- the excluded rows
described symbols the bot could never have taken.

momentum devandClaude Opus 5 9034839661 fix: a zero equity reading sized off the $100k default
Tradier returns total_equity 0.0 during its overnight maintenance window --
sixteen times in the last fourteen days, all around 01:06. Three defects
compounded so that a zero could size a position off default_equity:

  account_equity = equity or config.default_equity

`or` cannot tell "not supplied" from "read as zero", so a real 0.0 became
100000. Then the position-value cap, derived from the same equity, was
itself 0 -- and the guard

  if max_position_value is not None and max_position_value > 0:

SKIPPED the cap precisely when the cap said "no room". Finally the auto
path (~96% of approval requests) had no `pos_cap <= 0` early-out, unlike
the manual path at request_entry_approval. Net effect on a ~$250 account:
risk 5% of 100k = $5,000, capped only by liquidity. The broker would have
rejected it for buying power, which is luck rather than design.

Never fired in live hours -- every zero read landed with the market closed,
and _current_equity caches the last good value -- so this is latent, not a
realised loss. The reachable path is a boot that coincides with the
maintenance window, when no good read has been cached yet.

Distinguish None from zero, refuse to size on non-positive equity, treat a
zero cap as "no room" rather than "no cap", and mirror the manual path's
early-out. TRADING_DEFAULT_EQUITY is set to 300 on the live stack so even
the untested fallback cannot oversize.

momentum devandClaude Opus 5 0910e29cc5 chore: track the live overrides seed
docs/LIVE-CUTOVER.md already points at this file, so the cutover procedure
referenced something that existed only on one machine. It carries no
secrets -- keys stay in .env (gitignored) and the LAN address it names is
already in .env.example, the compose YAMLs and the systemd unit.

Tracking it also pins the two settings this branch corrects, with the
reasoning inline: the exit retune, and the Ollama endpoint that had drifted
to a port with nothing listening. Untracked, a rebuild would have quietly
restored both faults.

Note the precedence: compose env < overrides.env < config_overrides (DB).
The database wins, so editing this file alone changes nothing on a running
stack -- it is the bootstrap seed and the record of intent, not the live
switch.

momentum devandClaude Opus 5 9b4c8e5da5 fix: news ranking silently switched itself off for 40 days
step_arm ranks gappers by catalyst, but the enrichment feeding it stopped
on 2026-08-03 -- two days before the first real-money fill. raw_news_items
kept ingesting ~45k items/day throughout; news_events and
news_catalyst_cache have no rows after 2026-08-03. So every live trade to
date was ranked with the news multiplier pinned at 1.0.

Three faults, the third of which hid the other two:

1. Ollama was configured at a host/port with nothing listening, running a
   model that was never pulled.

2. _cat_mult returned a flat 1.0 for a symbol with no LLM advisory instead
   of falling back to the binary headline boost. With the scorer enabled
   and the cache empty that branch is reached for EVERY symbol, so turning
   on the graded ranker silently turned off the simple one it was meant to
   improve. Fall back properly, so news ranking degrades instead of
   disappearing.

3. enrich_recent_news never raises -- it reports failures in a returned
   counts dict, and enrich_loop discarded that return value. Every 120s
   for 40 days it received {enriched: 0, errors: 50} and threw it away: no
   log line, no event, nothing to distinguish a dead pipeline from an idle
   one. Consume the counts and emit a module_tick naming host and model,
   on the first failed pass and hourly thereafter.

Fault 3 is the one worth fixing; 1 and 2 are its first casualties.

No claim that news ranking pays: a binary "has a headline" flag tests
mildly NEGATIVE across 1,030 screened symbol-days (7.8% vs 10.4% ran
>=50%), and the graded classifier only overlaps bar data for five days,
too few to separate anything. Restoring the pipeline makes it measurable;
it does not make it trusted. Re-measure catalyst type and sentiment
against realised runs before giving the multiplier more authority.

momentum devandClaude Opus 5 aae7269538 fix: stop the exit stack amputating every winner
The live exit ran FOUR independent stop ratchets at once: a +5% breakeven
inherited silently from the env default, a 0.25R step-trail, a prior-low
trail, and profit-lock tiers. Stacked, they pinned the stop at or just
above entry within the first minute of any real move, so winners were
capped near +1R while losers still ran to the full stop.

Measured over 62 live Tradier + 172 Alpaca paper round trips:

  - trades whose stock ran >=20% after entry (avg +63.7%) kept 9.3% of it
  - median hold 10 min for winners vs 19 min for losers -- inverted
  - PCLA 2026-09-11: entered 12.8233, stopped 12.82, a 0.03% stop

breakeven_at_pct was the only exit lever in ExitConfig that defaulted ON
from the env (0.05) while its dataclass default and every sibling lever
defaulted to off, so the live stack ran it without ever setting it. Turn
the env default off so "not configured" means "not applied".

Replayed through simulate_exit -- same entries, same initial stops, only
the management varying -- with each stack split 70/30 by date. A 10%
trail running from entry looked best in-sample and went negative out-of-
sample; what survives is a trail armed only after +1R. The 8-20% range
all beat the old config in all four train/test cells (mean R 0.20-0.25 vs
0.125), so the live value of 12% is a plateau pick rather than a fitted
one.

Live config_overrides updated separately (market closed, no open
positions); this commit is the code default and the regression guard.
Risk per trade is unchanged and both safety backstops -- the -10%
catastrophe exit and naked-stop enforcement -- are untouched.

momentum devandClaude Fable 5 390d6660ea fix: halt-aware flatten — let a working market sell rest instead of churning
A market sell that sits unfilled means the symbol is halted (or session
closed); cancelling and resubmitting it every exit-manager pass fills no
faster and spams the broker — YXT 2026-08-05: 87 market sells across a
10-minute LULD halt, 86 cancelled, plus one exit_naked_stop journal event
every ~4s. On a halt-down the resting sell is also the position's only
protection.

cancel_protective_and_close now returns False (nothing submitted) when a
market sell for the symbol is already working, and only cancels
non-market protective sells before closing. Exit-manager paths
(catastrophe / naked-stop / first-red / trail) journal the exit only when
a close was actually submitted.

Year-replay stop-width buckets: <8% +0.072R, 8-12% +0.120R, 12-16%
-0.054R, >16% -0.092R — the wide cohort holds every recent dollar
disaster (BIYA 16.7%, FCUV day-2 17.5%), where the exit ladder's blind
spot (BE/trail only arm on the way up) rides the full catastrophe
distance. New stopwidth_gate intervention (fail-open without levels) +

overlap so the adjudicator attributes which does the work. In-sample

momentum devandClaude Fable 5 f0fa104511 feat: cap entry notional at broker buying power (cash-account GFV guard)
On the Tradier live cash account buying_power maps to cash_available —
SETTLED cash. Capping every entry's notional at it means the bot never
spends today's sale proceeds today, which is the entire good-faith
-violation rule. That replaces the blunt 1-trade/day cap: the live
account now trades like paper (cap back to 5/day), throughput
self-limits at ~settled/position-size sequential trades and refreshes
each morning at T+1. On margin accounts buying power is ~4x equity so
the cap never binds — one universal rule, no broker branches. Fail-open
when the field is absent.

momentum devandClaude Fable 5 c7249b22e2 feat: orb_pmhigh_gate_v1 — premarket-high reclaim gate, forward OOS test
H3 (enter the pm-high break at 9:30 instead of the ORB) FAILED its
pre-registered bar on the year replay: paired delta -0.069R (n=689) —
entering earlier on the same names does not pay; the 5-minute wait stays.

The decomposition found the real signal: ORB fires where RTH price also
reclaimed the premarket high ran +0.316R (n=689) vs -0.298R (n=477) where
it never did — 100th percentile of a 2000-draw random-gate null at the
same keep-rate (null p99 +0.127), sign-consistent 14/14 months. First
lever of 15 to survive both checks in-sample.

Because the split was found in this dataset, it counts for nothing until
fresh fires confirm: new 'pmhigh_gate' intervention kind (fail-open on a
missing premarket_structure row, RTH-only reclaim check at/before the
entry bar) + registered spec with expR_delta >= 0.05 at n >= 200 forward
bar. Cohort self-registers on the next nightly experiments run.

momentum devandClaude Fable 5 3fe0cb0891 feat: H3 replay — premarket-high break at 9:30 vs ORB, paired comparison
The pre-registered premarket hypothesis H3 (the source trader's actual
entry) made executable: both legs run per symbol-day over the year of
labeled gapper sessions, sharing the deployed exit engine (config parity)
and +1-tick adverse fills so the paired delta isolates ENTRY choice.

Comparison metric locked in the module docstring before the first run:
paired mean R delta (H3-ORB) where both fire, pass at >= +0.05R with
n >= 300 pairs, plus a stop-unit guard (median stop-distance % and
captured-move % printed for both legs — R parity from a tighter stop is
a fail, the vwap-reclaim lesson).

momentum devandClaude Fable 5 37757d3d47 fix: armed trigger names now get watcher scoring (blank reasoning panels)
Four of ten armed triggers had NO criteria events ever — the trigger book
arms from the live gapper scan while the watcher scores only the
discovery watchlist, so scanner-only names (TCX/ZTG class) showed an
empty reasoning panel with nothing behind it.

- arm pass injects every complete armed candidate into the watchlist
  provider's extra_symbols (its standing manual-add hook)
- provider returns injected symbols FIRST: the watcher truncates at
  max_symbols, so extras appended after a full research list were
  silently dropped — 'always include manually injected symbols' was
  untrue exactly when the list was full

60 watcher/watchlist/trigger tests pass.

momentum devandClaude Fable 5 2be23673be feat: reasoning-over-time drill-down — score/rvol timelines + criteria lanes + worded reasons
Clicking a watch-state row now shows HOW the verdict evolved, not just the
latest flags:
- setup score across the session vs the 60% gate (SVG line)
- relative volume vs its 2.5x floor
- per-criterion pass/fail lanes over the whole session (the variance of
  each logical step at a glance)
- each criterion's latest reason in words (rvol 4.9 (min 2.5), gap 80.9%,
  price vs breakout ...) instead of bare pass/fail marks

Backend: query_symbol_criteria gains history[] (server-side strided to
~240 samples) + detail[]. The generic LIKE scan took 12s/click over weeks
of criteria rows; now a partial expression index on the extracted symbol
(idx_events_criteria_symbol, built at boot) + 24h window + SQL-side
stride = <1s. Latest-verdict fallback keeps stale symbols and historical

momentum devandClaude Fable 5 054405dbdf feat: pyramid_1r_v1 experiment — add-into-strength, pre-registered
New 'pyramid' intervention kind in the replay engine: at +add_at_r on
initial risk, add add_frac x size (+adverse fill), whole-position stop to
blended breakeven; scratch there if a later bar trades through, else both
legs exit at the baseline exit. variant_r is per unit DEPLOYED
(P&L / ((1+add_frac) x risk)) so leverage alone cannot fake a pass.

Spec pyramid_1r_v1: add 0.5x at +1R, bar expR_delta >= +0.05 at n >= 300,
futility kill at n >= 500 below -0.02. Hypothesis notes the known failure
mode (median winners scratched at blended BE on first pullback). Shadow
only — no live-path changes; cohort self-registers on the next nightly
experiments run.

momentum devandClaude Fable 5 733a182f10 feat: premarket-structure labeler (Phase 1 of premarket axis, observe-only)
Distills each gapper's premarket tape (first-hit price/time, pm high/low,
run %, open-vs-pm-high, VWAP distance, jackknife count) into a
premarket_structure table for entry-conversion analysis. Motivated by
FCUV 2026-07-31: our DB captured the full $1.98->$10.49 premarket ramp
while the ORB entered at $11.89 into the reversal.

Pre-registered hypotheses H1-H3 locked in the module docstring before any
data was examined; report command prints descriptive buckets only, with
n>=30/bucket floor and Phase-2 shadow bar required for promotion. Gates
nothing, trades nothing.

Wired into the nightly scheduler after premarket_eval. One session scan
per build (per-symbol queries were ~100x slower); partial session index
created post-close only (mid-market CONCURRENTLY build deadlocked against
live ingest).

  Audit events (orders, fills, closes, risk rules) are never pruned. The

momentum devandClaude Fable 5 a2de50479a fix: three Tradier sandbox incident fixes (2026-07-28 reject loop)
Incident: entry-timeout cancels raced lazy sandbox fills -> untracked
positions; naked-stop guard then force-sold but every sell rejected
('more shares than your current long position') for hours.

1. translate_order: Tradier OTOCO/OTO parents carry no top-level
   symbol/side/qty (legs only) — inherit from the entry leg so
   symbol-scoped lookups can see brackets; get_orders symbols filter
   also matches by leg symbols. Without this the stop-leg search read
   a fully-protected position as naked.
2. close_position: cancel the symbol's resting sell orders/legs first —
   Tradier reserves held shares against open sells, so selling without
   releasing them always rejects.
3. cancel_entry (broker-agnostic): after cancelling, re-check the
   broker's final word by client_order_id; journal a fill for any
   executed shares instead of orphaning a real position (2026-07-06
   class, same race exists on Alpaca).

49 tests pass incl. new coverage for all three.

TRADING_BOOT_RECONCILE (default on): at boot, diff the broker's open
orders against today's submitted events — an open BUY on an unheld symbol
this process never submitted is a crash-restart orphan (the 2026-07-06

Day-22 forensic (BIYA session): 6 entry submissions, 0 fills — IREX missed
+1.7R, IRE +1.65R by one cent. Two root causes fixed:

1. Slow-path limit rested AT the trigger while price ran 2% past it, and
   retries reused the same stale price. Marketable model now prices from
   max(trigger, live last) via price_provider; the anti-chase extension
   gate gets the live ref too (was an entry_ref==trigger no-op on this
   path). TRADING_ENTRY_FILL_MODEL flipped to marketable.

2. Fast trigger path armed nothing all day: legacy rvol (cum-so-far /
   full-day MEAN) is ~0.1-0.3 minutes after the open for a normal heavy
   name and its mean is poisoned by reverse-split/prior-squeeze days
   (BIYA legacy 1.27 vs real activity 481x median). New rvol_tod =
   cum / (MEDIAN(20d) * elapsed-session fraction) drives arm eligibility
   and the scanner keep-filter; legacy rvol untouched for validated
   boundaries (gap-squeeze rvol>=5).

Also: stagnation time-stop (TRADING_EXIT_STAGNATION_MIN/_R, default OFF)
in simulate_exit + manage_live with sweep_exits.py variants for
validation before any live enable.

momentum devandClaude Fable 5 a00f967bdf fix: dashboard research-DB connection self-heals — the 'TradingView failing' root cause
The charts weren't broken — the data pipe was empty. dashboard_api opened the
research connection ONCE at boot; if the DB was unreachable then (container
started before Postgres, or a blip) it stayed None forever, so /api/chart and
/api/bars returned 'no research db attached' and every candlestick + sparkline
rendered blank. Live-verified: GET /api/chart returned bars:[] reason:'no
research db attached' on the deployed dashboard. Now DashboardState._research()
opens the connection LAZILY and reopens if None — same self-heal as the
event-store emit fix. 2 tests; chart/backtest endpoint tests still green.
No library change: Lightweight Charts v5.2 is fine, it just had nothing to draw.

momentum devandClaude Fable 5 dd13c41fc8 test(019): de-flake watchlist concurrency test — assert single-snapshot consistency
The test compared len(w) and list(w) as two SEPARATE locked reads, so the
churn thread could mutate between them (30 vs 31) — a bug in the test, not the
Watchlist (each read is individually consistent; there is no torn-read
guarantee ACROSS two calls). Now snapshots once and asserts that snapshot never
tears + concurrent contains/slice never raise. 5/5 green.

momentum devandClaude Fable 5 b3a47d775d feat(019): discovery on its own thread + tuner heartbeat (honest stale alert)
Telemetry: discovery took 6-30s ON the single scheduler, freezing ingest/arm
so the trigger read stale bars — the real 'late edge detection'. Now discovery
runs on its own daemon thread with a dedicated DB connection; the watchlist it
mutates is a lock-guarded Watchlist (list-like drop-in, no torn reads); the
scheduler discover step auto-disables (single-writer). Loop is now 3 fast
threads (entries/exits/discovery) + slow scheduler for tolerant work.

Also: nightly_tune writes a heartbeat every run, so the boot alert distinguishes
'tuner not running' (real) from 'ran, no profitable ORB config, kept params'
(expected — the strategy has no edge). Kills the misleading Telegram alarm.
543 tests green.

momentum devandClaude Fable 5 680ddc2174 loop: faster decision pipeline — ingest 20->5s, arm 20->8s, watch 15->8s, trigger 4->2s
Owner: 'make all decisions as fast as possible.' The real entry-detection
ceiling was ingest — bars refreshed every 20s, so the 4s trigger thread read
data up to 20s stale and detected breakouts late. Ingest is incremental+cheap,
safe at 5s. Fresher bars + faster arm (trigger levels) + 2s trigger check +
the 4s exits shipped earlier = the whole ingest->detect->decide->exit loop
tightened. One batched data call per cycle so Alpaca rate limits are fine.
Sub-second exit management on a dedicated thread is the next (code) step.

Owner's real complaint: late exits gave back gains. Exits ran on the slow
scheduler at 12s while entries run on the 4s fast thread — exits were 3x
slower than entries. A small-cap can spike and round-trip inside 12s. Drop
TRADING_EXIT_MANAGE_INTERVAL_SECONDS to 4s (config, reversible, both compose
files). Deeper fix (exit mgmt on the sub-second trigger thread) planned
separately. Entry chase-tail (24% fill >5% above break) is the next

The 2026-07-17 20:23 postgres blip left the live loop writing zero events for
hours: emit() executed on a RAW cursor, bypassing PgConnection._run's

the raw execute failed with no retry, and self._conn was never rebuilt.
Routing emit through the facade execute() wraps the round-trip in _run, so a

unable to write' safety guard queued separately.)

The gate is damage-control, not an edge source: it can only allocate the
strategy's existing (negative) edge onto least-bad days — best case flat,
never gain. Its value is CONDITIONAL: a holding pattern until an entry edge
(plan 017 L2 depth) is found, at which point it flips to force-multiplier
(good names x good days). Owner's 'it just turns the bot off' critique is
correct at the current no-edge base.

admin_api.py called load_dotenv() unconditionally at module level, so
merely importing it (e.g. pytest collecting
tests/unit/test_admin_effective_config.py) ran python-dotenv's upward
find_dotenv() search, loaded the real repo .env (secrets included),
and polluted os.environ for the rest of the test session.

Gate the load_dotenv() call behind `if __name__ == "__main__":` at the
same source location, so it still runs before the module-level
os.environ.get(...) constants when run as the entrypoint (`python
admin_api.py` is unchanged) but never fires on a plain import.

momentum devandClaude Fable 5 849bd476f9 adjudicator: random-gate null for keep-or-zero PASSes + register orderflow H6 (quote-size book imbalance)
Null (the H2 lesson): zeroing share f of a negative baseline mechanically
yields expR_delta = f*|mean baseline|; a PASS on expR_delta_min now also
requires expR_delta_vs_null >= the same margin whenever zeroed_share >= 5%.
Exposure-shrinking can no longer masquerade as selection; non-gate
experiments unaffected. Honest disclosure: regime_meta_v1's FIRE-weighted
pass would not clear this bar either — its standing rests on the session-
level walk-forward OOS evidence, which no random gate reproduces.

H6: CKS order-flow-imbalance from quote_snapshots bid/ask SIZES —
size-weighted book imbalance over the 10-min pre-trigger window, zero
ask-tilted books; skip-on-no-coverage; judged under the null from day one.

premarket_eval's shadow enrichment call site queried session_date = current_date
(wrong on UTC-server Postgres at night, so it never matched any symbols) and
shared one try-block for float_cache + dilution filings (a float_cache failure
silently skipped the dilution refresh too). Fix: compute the ET session date
in Python, split into two independent try-blocks, lift into a testable
_refresh_shadow_enrichment(con, session_date). float_cache now applies its own
DDL unconditionally on use instead of only when an API key is present.

Adds iv_dilution_gate (additive, mirrors iv_regime_gate's keep-or-zero shape
keyed on symbol instead of session_date, fail-open on unfetched symbols) plus
its once-per-run preload, and registers the pre-registered dilution_veto_v1
experiment via the existing experiments/*.json self-registering cohort. Live
veto stays OFF; this only wires the shadow measurement.
