momentum devandClaude Opus 4.8 e601973de2 Alpaca News API ingestion -> raw_news_items (feeds catalysts + Ollama)
The only news source was RSS (slow, regex ticker-scraping). Alpaca exposes
Benzinga news with a stable id + authoritative symbols list. Add it as a second
source landing into the SAME raw_news_items table, so recent_news_map (catalyst
prioritisation) and the Ollama enrichment (PR #2) pick it up with no other changes.

- AlpacaPaperClient.get_news(symbols, limit): GET /v1beta1/news (works on the
  existing data keys; verified live).
- research/ingestion/alpaca_news.py: ingest_alpaca_news lands new items, deduped
  by the Alpaca news id; never raises (news is an enhancement, not a dependency).
- run_live_paper step_news on the scheduler (ALPACA_NEWS_* env, default on, 120s),
  scoped to the tracked universe.

Verified live: passes landed ~34 then deduped; recent_news_map went from RSS-only
to 370 ticker->headline catalysts. tests/unit: 165 passed (+5).

"""Live paper-trading orchestrator (Milestone 4 end-to-end).
This is the piece that was missing: a single loop tying together
1. ingest — latest 1-minute Alpaca IEX bars into research market.duckdb
(plus a daily-bar backfill on startup so gap %% / RVOL work)
2. watch — Watcher.tick over the ingested bars, emitting signal_ready
3. sync — Alpaca paper account / positions / orders into the event DB
4. execute — TradingExecutionService.tick: approval requests, and order
submission (auto or via dashboard approval)
5. dashboard — optional embedded API + UI at http://127.0.0.1:8010
Usage
-----
python run_live_paper.py # continuous loop
python run_live_paper.py --once # single pass, then exit
python run_live_paper.py --symbols AAPL,SNDL --auto-approve
python run_live_paper.py --no-dashboard
Without ALPACA_API_KEY / ALPACA_SECRET_KEY the loop runs in dry mode:
network steps are skipped with clear messages, but watcher + dashboard
still work against whatever data already exists.
