Closing the backup for real. Three changes, each fixing something that
would have made the Storage Box target fail or silently rot.
1. SSH KEY COMES FROM ENV, not from the container. Generating a keypair
inside the API container was the obvious move and it is wrong: the
container filesystem is ephemeral, so the key dies on the next
redeploy and the off-box push starts failing silently. backup-db.sh
now reads BACKUP_SSH_KEY (a Coolify secret), writes it to a 0600 temp
file per run, and removes it on exit via trap.
2. PORT 23, verified live. Hetzner Storage Box runs full OpenSSH on 23;
port 22 answers with mod_sftp (SFTP only). Banner-checked both against
u635423.your-storagebox.de. rsync now uses
-e "ssh -p ${BACKUP_SSH_PORT:-23} ... -i <key>"; the old invocation had
no -e at all and would have gone to 22.
3. OFF-BOX PUSH IS NIGHTLY, not Sundays-only. A weekly push meant up to
six days of dumps existed ONLY inside an ephemeral container, which is
the same as not existing. Alert copy updated to say exactly that when
the push fails or is skipped.
Also adds POST /api/internal/backup/run (internal-key gated) so a real
backup can be TRIGGERED and OBSERVED — it returns exit code, duration,
output tail, and whether the remote + ssh key are configured. The backup
can only run where SUPABASE_DB_URL and the Supabase route live (this
container), and there was no way to fire or inspect it without a shell.
Connectivity established this session: Storage Box reachable from the dev
box on 22/23; Supabase :5432 NOT reachable from WSL2 (so the dump must
run in-container, as designed); docker IS available locally, so the
restore-verify can run against a scratch Postgres using the real dump.

The counter showed 1/100 from user_profiles (founder_pricing=true AND
subscription_status='active'), but the live Stripe account has ZERO
subscriptions of any status — the "1" is a comped/manually-tiered profile, not a
paying founder. A tier/founder_pricing field on a profile can be set without
ever paying, so it is not proof of a paid seat.
Now the count is Stripe's OWN truth: stripeService.countFounderSeats() counts
ACTIVE subscriptions on a founder price. The route reads that (cached 5 min);
null or any failure → hidden, never a number. A comped profile no longer counts
→ the honest number is 0.

The pricing Desk showcase hardcoded an alt-line ladder (1.5 A +7.1% / 2.5 A+
+11.4% / 4.5 C -3.8%), QUARTER-KELLY 2.4%, and PARLAY φ 0.34 — a mocked demo
selling something we weren't proving.
- deskShowcaseService reads the pre-graded snapshot for a real A/B prop's
alt-line ladder (prefers the one with the most grade variation — the most
compelling real example). Edge per rung shows only when it's a plausible
market value; the inflated (model-line)/line artifact on small lines is
guarded to "—" rather than shown as a fake +91%.
- PARLAY φ is now REAL: the model's same-team correlation (0.34, mirroring the
frontend parlayMath team constant) computed for TWO REAL same-team legs,
named. No real same-team pair on the board → the tile hides, never an
invented number.
- QUARTER-KELLY tile is REMOVED: the snapshot has no odds, so a real
quarter-Kelly % can't be computed here — a fabricated 2.4% is worse than
nothing. Kelly stays a real in-app Desk feature; the showcase just doesn't
fake it.
- DeskShowcase is now a client component fetching /api/desk-showcase; when the
board has no real ladder the whole visuals column hides (real-or-hidden, same
law as the hero). The pitch copy is unchanged.

The landing hero was a static Jokic "Example" card with a name-length pick and a
hardcoded A- 73% +6.2% fallback. Now it's deterministic and live:
- heroPropService.pickHeroProp reads the pre-graded snapshot and selects the
prop with the LARGEST |projection - line| gap among A/B grades (conviction,
not noise) — the read where VYNDR disagrees most with the market, the card
that makes a stranger argue. No curation, no grading (reads cache → no API
credits). GET /api/hero-prop (backend) + repointed Next proxy.
- The card shows the disagreement EXPLICITLY: the book's line vs VYNDR's model,
side by side (model in green), with the real grade timestamp ("Graded 2:14
PM"). The EXAMPLE chip is gone.
- Empty slate → the MOST RECENT real graded read (flagged "LATEST READ", real
date). Nothing cached → { available:false } and the card HIDES. No
hand-written fallback — the Jokic card is deleted. Survives a dead night: a
live rule shows tonight's real MLB read, never a phantom July NBA card.
7 service tests lock the rule (max-gap, A/B gate, projection/line required,
empty→recent, hidden, cross-sport). colorContract updated to the new
disagreement display. Change-affected suites green, web build exit 0.

Kev's call: the 30D accuracy surfaces must read TRUTH, not a cache that can't be
filtered. My earlier degraded-row exclusion only touched getModelAggregate
(Postgres); the public buckets/badge still read outcomeService (Redis outcome
log), which counts degraded projection-0 outcomes and has no field to filter on.
- /api/accuracy (AccuracyBadge) + /api/ledger/accuracy (buckets/ModelRecord)
now source from the clean Postgres ledger aggregate via new
ledgerService.getAccuracyView + accuracyBucketsFromAgg (model_value > 0
excludes degraded rows). Same response shapes → no frontend change. Redis
outcome log is now read by nothing public; it can age out or be rebuilt.
- BEAT CLOSE is a MEASURED-WRONG ZERO: captureClosing re-records the locked line
as the "closing" line, so clv is flat on the whole sample and beat_close reads
0% (comparing a number to itself). Full write-up: specs/audit-data/
clv-capture-broken.md (the fix belongs to C4). Until then, beat_close_pct +
clv_distribution are SUPPRESSED at the source (getModelAggregate, gated by
clvCaptureReliable() / CLV_CAPTURE_RELIABLE=1). Every public surface already
renders BEAT CLOSE only when non-null, so they all hide it now — no wrong zero
anywhere. HIT RATE (real) is unaffected.

ClaimMeter rendered a fabricated "47 / 100 CLAIMED" (a hardcoded default; the
comment even said "Cosmetic conversion driver… Static here"). Now:
- GET /api/founders/count counts ONLY real paying founders — user_profiles
where founder_pricing = true AND subscription_status = 'active' (the
Stripe-webhook-synced mirror, so we never hammer the Stripe API). Cached 5
min in Redis on top of that.
- If the source is unavailable (Supabase unconfigured, query error, column not
migrated, client throws) the endpoint returns { available: false } and the
ClaimMeter renders NOTHING — counter and progress bar both hidden. We never
fall back to a number.
- A low real count is shown honestly (0 → "0 / 100"); the truth is the feature.
Next proxy at app/api/founders/count. 6 route tests cover real count, low
count, error/unconfigured/throw → hidden, and cache-hit. Suite 271/3260 green,
web build exit 0.

Diagnosis (why 500/500 went unpaged): the only regular odds-api burner was
futuresService, which called axios DIRECTLY — bypassing the gateway, so it
never hit recordCall (the ONE place the WARN/BLOCK pager fires) and never
respected the 95% block. It only syncFromHeaders, which updated the counter's
number SILENTLY. oddsService (which does go through the gateway) only touches
odds-api when PropLine fails, so recordCall for odds-api effectively never ran.
Result: the counter could reach 100% with neither pager firing.
Fixes (a silent drain is now impossible, not just guarded):
- futuresService routes through gateway.fetch('odds-api', …) → counted, blocked
at 95%, and reserve-gated. Closes the raw-axios bypass.
- Reserve floor in the gateway: a DISCRETIONARY call (futures/soccer) passes
reserve=ODDS_API_RESERVE (default 50) and is refused while remaining <= reserve.
The ESSENTIAL MLB prop-backup passes no reserve and may spend to the 95% block.
→ a futures/soccer drain can NEVER starve MLB's backup path.
- quotaTracker.syncFromHeaders (the AUTHORITATIVE number) now fires the same
once-per-period WARN/BLOCK alert on a crossing — extracted fireThresholdAlert
shared with recordCall. The header-only drain now pages.
- POST /api/internal/quota/test-alert (internal-key) test-fires the pager
end-to-end so ntfy delivery is verifiable on demand.
Also (reality-corrected cadence): WNBA restored to the full grid. 2026-07-15
had two AFTERNOON WNBA games finished before the 22 UTC slot — 14 UTC (10am ET)
is the only slot early enough for a 1pm ET game's props, and on PropLine the
extra slots cost a rounding error. Soccer stays the only trimmed sport (the
real odds-api discipline). Assumption corrected by observed data.

The "SIGNAL LIVE vs STALE 8h" contradiction was a field mismatch, not a dead
pipeline. updated_at is the grade-LOCK time (advances only on a full snapshot,
5×/day — grades never change in-game, so it is intentionally stable). The
SYNC badge measured the 20-min intraday cadence (expected_interval_s=1200)
against that 5×/day field → structurally guaranteed STALE between slots even
when intraday refreshes lines perfectly.
- snapshotService: full snapshot now seeds refreshed_at at lock time
- intradayRefresh already bumps refreshed_at every ~20 min (unchanged)
- /api/snapshot/summary + GET /:sport now expose refreshed_at (was written to
Redis but never serialized → no public liveness signal existed)
- LiveLayer SYNC badge measures freshness from refreshed_at (fallback updated_at)
Exposing refreshed_at also gives a public heartbeat probe: it advances every
intraday slot, so pipeline liveness is verifiable without container logs.

Reserved house handle (default 'vyndr', env HOUSE_HANDLE) resolves to the
PUBLIC model record — getModelAggregate() with no userId (user_id=NULL rows)
— WITHOUT a public_profiles row. It is the ONLY special case; every other
handle keeps the private-by-default, byte-identical-404 no-existence-leak
contract. The house profile is always public and never 404s (a fetch failure
degrades to an honest building state).
- src/routes/profiles.js: house short-circuit + sendHouseProfile (public
aggregate + by_tier + public settled entries), reserved before the publish
lookup so a user claim is shadowed.
- PublicProfile.tsx: house label 'VYNDR MODEL · PUBLIC RECORD' + hero/subtitle
off data.house; keeps the CLV-VERIFIED record hero + TierRecord calibration
+ recent settled reads (misses included).
- opengraph-image.tsx (1200x630): house-branded eyebrow/heading.
- portrait/route.tsx: new 1080x1350 share crop (real aggregate or tagline
fallback, never a fabricated number).
- Discoverability: 'VIEW AS PUBLIC PAGE ->' on the ledger MODEL header +
'VIEW PUBLIC RECORD ->' under the landing ModelRecord, both to /u/vyndr.
- tests/unit/houseProfile.test.js: house resolves to user_id=NULL aggregate

StatStrip violations fixed: MovementChip before the grade (market

(identity is one contiguous run).
- Line-movement sparklines: intradayRefreshService.trackHistory captures
real {t,line} points per grade (seeded with the lock, deduped when

StatStrip.DotStrip renders vs the LOCKED line, newest first.

6.1 FIRST-PAINT ROOT CAUSE: the landing blocked its ENTIRE render on
Supabase auth init ('loading || user') — anonymous visitors stared at
'LOADING THE SLATE' for the whole auth roundtrip (~3-4s). Now a
synchronous localStorage session check gates the suppression: only
visitors who actually hold a session (and will redirect) wait;
anonymous traffic paints the hero immediately. Full RSC conversion of
the hero is deferred and logged — the blocker itself is dead.
Proof Strip rules: top-3 by grade whatever they are; 'TONIGHT'S TOP
SIGNALS' only with >=1 A-tier, else 'TONIGHT'S BOARD'; nothing graded
yet → yesterday's SETTLED reads with outcome chips (misses included).
6.2 Content routes: /api/content/top-signals/:sport,
/streak-watch/:sport (the zero-grade daily format off the aggregator),
/daily-report/:sport — built but self-flagging do_not_post until the
record clears n>=20. Flag, don't fake.

'X of N reads today' + bar; unlimited tiers see nothing. Corrects the
stale '5 scans / month' copy.
5.5 Per-tier calibration on the MODEL tab: A+/A/B/C chips with hit% at
n>=20 PER TIER, 'building (n/20)' below — the separation between tiers
is the proof the grades mean something.

4.1 ROOT CAUSE of 'Ohtani returns nothing': no backend
/api/players/search existed (MLB 404'd; NBA/WNBA hit the offline
Python service). New Express route + mlbStatsAdapter.matchPlayers —
canonical nameKey fuzzy match (exact > last-name prefix > folded
substring). LIVE-VERIFIED vs the real 1,299-player list: Ohtani /
Aaron Judge / Sánchez / sanchez / Chisholm Jr all resolve; accented
and unaccented return identical results. Non-MLB matches the
platform's cached names (rosterlogs + grades), cache-only.
4.2 Reveal choreography per §7: analyzing steps → DECLASSIFIED stamp →
90ms-staggered context panels (entrance floors visible per the
Phase-0 rule); prefers-reduced-motion skips straight to the card.
4.3 PRIOR READS chips on scan results — the model's public ledger
history for the player (deferred-render, outcomes + pending, never
invented). /api/ledger/model gains ?player= on entries.
4.4 Parlay Lab: humanized stat labels via the ONE shared formatter
(lib/gradeAdapter.statLabel); 1-leg provisional grade ('Leg grade:
B — add a leg for the combined read'); discoverable entry — Nav
'Parlay Lab' item opens the drawer via window.__openParlay, and the
open drawer now renders an honest empty state at 0 legs.

Odds-only refresh every 20 min during slate hours (noon–midnight ET),
in-process (INTRADAY_REFRESH=0 kill switch; skips full-snapshot slots):
- signed delta RELATIVE TO THE GRADED SIDE; direction is the signal.
- WITH the grade → STEAM badge, never a re-grade.
- AGAINST >=1.0 → re-grade THAT PROP ONLY at the real current line:
holds/refuses → VALUE (better entry, same read); drops → PUBLIC revision
(grade updates, revised_from_grade preserves the ORIGINAL forever, UI
strikethrough on slate strips + ledger cards).
- Every run recaptures closing_line/odds → the close is now refresh-
fidelity; SYNC goes live by dropping SNAPSHOT_EXPECTED_INTERVAL to 1200.
- Ticker MOVE events feed from the refresh (>=1.0 moves).
- QUOTA MATH: 36 runs/day/sport x 4 sports <= 144 PropLine calls/day vs

- StreaksPanel renders THE LENS (interpreted read + tonight difficulty) +
snapshot grade letters; streaks are FREE for every tier per the product

with streaks + hot lists (Slate activeStat → slateGameToCardData).
- /explore = server SEO shell (daily-indexable: 'MLB Hit Streaks, Hot
Hitters & Stat Leaders') + ExploreHub client: leaders + full streaks +
hot lists, real-tier gated, defaults to the in-season sport.
- Landing teaser fixed: it pointed at NBA (off-season → self-hid forever);

RESURRECT verdict: the Session-23 engine existed, was pure, tested, and
mounted — it starved because every producer was external and unarmed
(tank01-prefetch via n8n, offline Python flow). The snapshot pipeline is
now the producer: each run merges slate players' real game logs (already
fetched for archetypes — zero extra calls) into rosterlogs:{sport}.
- computeFormHeat: hot hitters (7d AVG), hot sluggers (SLG), hot shooters
(FG%) — correct sum/sum rate math, season baseline else prior stretch,
min-sample refusals, never extrapolated.
- streakLens: no raw streak renders alone — built-vs opponents, tonight's
matchup + opposing SP w/ ERA, step-up/step-down difficulty, one-line
read. Absent context = say less, never invent.
- /api/streaks/:sport: heat merged into the feed, lens applied from cached
schedule + pitchers (time-bounded, can never hang the route), snapshot
grade letters joined.
- ACCEPTANCE (live statsapi, real 2026 logs): 32 rows found — Turang
12-gm on-base, Reynolds 8-gm on-base, Pratt 7-gm on-base + 3-gm
multi-hit, Meidroth 5-gm on-base, Cortes 5-gm on-base.

ledger_entries is live (migration 019 applied to prod, RLS + NULLS NOT
DISTINCT dedupe verified against the real database). Every grade now
persists, settles against the real result, and carries closing-line value.
- ledgerService: pipeline pre-grade upserts (public model record, user_id
null, idempotent), closing capture on every snapshot (last write before
game start = the close), settlement with SIGNED CLV (over = locked -
closing; beat/faded/flat), 30d model aggregate with the hard n>=20 rule.
- Write paths: snapshotService -> ledger (priority path); Next /api/scan ->
ledger for authenticated users only (anon never touches the public
record). Refused reads write nothing and don't burn a scan.
- Honest refusal (work-order 1.5): no projection => insufficient_data,
grade null, "INSUFFICIENT DATA - no read" UI. The web gradeAdapter no
longer displays the line as the model projection (the audit's
model==line / +0% edge degenerate); the card renders absent states.
projectionFor is sport-aware (l5 -> l20 -> {stat}_per_90 -> xG).
- /ledger: MY READS | MODEL tabs; model header shows hit% + beat-close%
only at n>=20, else RECORD BUILDING + live pending count. ModelRecord
deferred-render strip on landing + player hero. CLV + outcome chips,
revised_from_grade strikethrough (Phase 2.5 ready).
- SYNC (Task 5): thresholds vs SNAPSHOT_EXPECTED_INTERVAL (normal <1.5x,
amber >=1.5x, STALE red >=3x) via /api/snapshot/summary.
- Phase 2.5 logged in specs/vyndr-roadmap.md (build after Phase 3).
- Data-semantics hardening: strict null-safe numeric parsing everywhere a

or rewired to real data. Deletion sprint — no new product features.
0.1 Fake NBA game: root cause was scheduleService fetching the ESPN
scoreboard with no ?dates= param or date filter — off-season ESPN
returns the NEAREST slate (Jun 13 NYK@SA Finals rendered as tonight).
Now pinned to the requested ET date + defensive filter; undated events
dropped. Honest month-aware per-sport empty states (lib/emptyState.js).
0.2 Fake header counters: liveTick stripped to a bare 1s pulse (the
auto-incrementing "247 graded", sin-driven brain-%, aPlus/cascades are
dead). New GET /api/snapshot/summary (cache-only, before /:sport) +
Next proxy; HeartbeatBar shows the real graded count and SYNC =
elapsed since the last pipeline run (amber past 5 min).
0.3 Ticker: hardcoded fallback items deleted (real snapshot exhaust only);
MOVE kept — computeLineDeltas is real movement. <4 real items → no
ticker; bar publishes --ticker-h so the fixed header collapses cleanly.
0.4 /terminal retired: route redirects to /dashboard; VVI/injury-wire/
leaders layouts preserved unrouted as §12 content-engine templates.
Nav PRIMARY = Slate/Scan/Ledger; BottomTabBar Terminal→Explore; PWA
shortcut Terminal→Ledger; #terminal alias → /dashboard.
0.5 ›Query nav pill deleted (duplicate /scan link).
Backend 2289 → 2309 tests (199 suites), web build exit 0.
Spec: specs/phase-0-kill-the-lies.md. Next: work-order Phase 1 (ledger
persistence + settlement).

Product overhaul core — the two transformative, differentiated systems:
Self-learning loop (Phase 2): outcomeService settles locked snapshot grades
against real MLB Stats API results → hit/miss/push, rolling accuracy by grade
tier (30d window). Idempotent, injectable, unit-tested. New GET /api/accuracy +
/api/ledger/accuracy + internal settle triggers + cron hook. AccuracyBadge
(dashboard/scan/landing) is honest — "LEARNING" below MIN_SAMPLE, never a fake
number. Settled HIT/MISS chips overlay the live slate.
Real-time layer (Phase 1): Slate silent 60s auto-refresh (no flash, no wipe on
transient blips) + "SIGNAL LIVE · UPDATED Xs ago" freshness strip; Ticker LIVE
badge that flashes on fresh events.
Landing (Phase 3): TopSignals shows tonight's real top-3 A-rated grades + live
accuracy — the product shown, not described.
Founder pricing: FOUNDER_CODE_EXPIRY default 2026-06-30 → 2026-12-31 (had
lapsed, disabling every founder code + the ClaimMeter pitch). That expiry — not
a tier change — was the real cause of the 4 stripe test failures.
Backend 2255 (4 failing) → 2274 (all green; +19 new, +4 fixed). Web build exit 0.

Three focused P1 fixes on the Session-45 snapshot model.
- Grade card intel ROOT CAUSE: gameLogService is NBA/WNBA-only (offline Python),
so MLB props never got l5_avg/l20_avg and buildIntelFields returned {}. Wired
MLB game logs into featureCache.gameLogFeatures via mlbStatsAdapter.getPlayerStats
(pure mlbGameLogFeatures + MLB stat_type->field map). buildIntelFields gained
playerStats/projection fallbacks for partial intel.
- Player name normalization: src/utils/playerName.js (+ web/src/lib copy):
normalizeName -> {display,key}. Strips periods, de-dots suffix, accent-folds
the key. Applied in snapshotService grouping, slateAdapter grade index +
player-strip merge (variants collapse, longest name shown), and
playerIntelService. "A.J. Ewing"/"AJ Ewing" + "Jazz Chisholm"/"Jr." now merge.
- MLB starting pitchers: new GET /api/schedule/:sport/pitchers (probablePitchers
service wrapping mlbStatsAdapter.getScheduleWithPitchers + best-effort ERA).
Slate fetches it, builds a team->pitcher map (full name + mascot match),
attaches pitchers to MLB GameCardData. + Next proxy.
Backend 2100 -> 2122 tests (+22), 176 suites. Web build clean (exit 0).

The on-demand "Read" grade model is RETIRED. A scheduled pipeline pre-grades the
slate, locks grades to the line, tracks movement; the dashboard shows them already
there. Orchestrates existing services — nothing rebuilt.
- snapshotService.runSnapshot(sport): getOdds → gradeAndCacheSlate → classify
archetype per player → lock gradedAt → line deltas vs previous snapshot → write
snapshot:{sport}:latest/previous + grades:{sport} → ticker events. Fully
injectable, zero-network unit tests. runAllSnapshots = cron entrypoint.
- Internal trigger POST /api/internal/snapshot/:sport + /all (requireInternalAuth).
In-process cron (SNAPSHOT_CRON=1, UTC 14,19,22,1,3) in server.js, no new dep.
- Public reads: GET /api/snapshot/:sport (cache-only) + GET /api/ticker (merges
TICKER_MANUAL pins) + Next proxies.
- GameCard swap: live Slate renders vyndr/GameCard (legacy kept for types only),
overlays locked grades onto game props → player name once + archetype badge +
"Graded Xh ago at -115 · Current 2.5 · ▲ TOWARD +1.0". Ungraded → "Awaiting next
scan", NO Read button. On-demand onGrade flow deleted.
- Ticker polls /api/ticker every 30s, graceful fallback to hardcoded items.
- NBA/WNBA: espnStatsAdapter free fallback (defensive parse → found:false on shape
mismatch) wired into resolvePlayerStats after the offline Python service.
Env: PROPLINE_API_KEY_1/2/3, VYNDR_INTERNAL_KEY, SNAPSHOT_CRON=1, TICKER_MANUAL.
Backend 2061 -> 2100 tests (+39), 173 suites. Web build clean (exit 0).

P0 fixes + wiring real data into the S42 Player Intelligence architecture.
- P0 dropdown z-index: the nav's backdrop-filter stacking context let the
Ticker/HeartbeatBar paint over the avatar/More dropdowns and eat clicks.
nav now position:relative zIndex:2; menus zIndex:100. Avatar Settings ->
/settings.
- Real MLB stats: mlbStatsAdapter.searchPlayer + getPlayerStats (name->id->
season+gamelog). playerIntelService.resolvePlayerStats normalizes into the
archetype classifier; getPlayerIntel returns found:true + real season +
archetype classified from real stats. NBA via nbaStatsClient (degrades).
- Game cards: slateAdapter.groupPropsByPlayer (playerStrips, name once) +
mapPitchers (MLB probables), folded into mapScheduleToGameCards. Legacy
GameCard line grid renders BookChip (brand colors) not grey text.
- Grade card intel: analyzeViaEngine1.buildIntelFields computes stat-context +
form/usage/matchup/rest from the existing feature vector (zero extra I/O);
gradeAdapter lights up the card sections. Archetype deferred (needs season
line at grade time).
- Depth chart foundation: depthChartService (getLineup/getDepthChart/
getCascadeProjection) + /api/stats/lineup|depth|cascade, graceful + injectable.
- Mobile: player hero name overflow-wrap + 24px on <=640px (was clipping).
Backend 2011 -> 2045 tests (+34), 163 suites. Web build clean (exit 0).

- gradeSlateService writes grades:{sport} cache (closes content pipeline →
dataLevel full); fire-and-forget from oddsService.recordDownstream, gated
by shouldGradeSlate (off in test, GRADE_SLATE_ON_FETCH override)
- NFL/NHL wired: oddsService SPORT_KEYS/SPORT_MARKETS (correct the-odds-api
keys americanfootball_nfl/icehockey_nhl), proplineAdapter MARKETS, NHL
MARKET_MAP keys to avoid silent-zero
- rate limiting mounted on 8 public cached routers (odds/parlay 30/min,
rest 60/min)
- jsonlLogger writes to temp under test (no more dirtied tracked artifact);
5MB pipeline test given 20s timeout
