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.

Ran the manual regrade with the internal key (thanks). Results are mixed
and the honest half matters more.
CONFIRMED WORKING — the probability layer is fully alive in production.
After POST /api/internal/snapshot/{mlb,wnba}: p_win, ev_pct, model_odds
and value are present on 32/32 live grades (mlb 7/7, wnba 25/25), up from
0/8 before. That fix is done.
NOT WORKING — the grade-range half did not land, and I am not going to
claim it did. The live distribution is unchanged (wnba B17/C8 before AND
after; mlb B4/C3), no A, no D, same four confidence values. Diagnosis:
matchup_grade is 0/25 on the live board, i.e. opp_rank_stat is still
null, so engine1's +/-1.0 opponent factor still never fires and the
ceiling is still +3.0 against the +4.5 an A requires.
Two distinct causes, both verified against the live ESPN feed:
1. refreshTeamStats CRASHED on every team — "buckets is not iterable",
captured 0 / errored 15. ESPN's current shape is results.stats =
an OBJECT with categories[], not an array. The old parser did for...of
on it. This was invisible until S63 gave the function its first
production caller. FIXED here (now captured 15 / errored 0) with a
regression test covering the current shape, the legacy array shape,
and empty payloads.
2. Even parsed correctly, the endpoint does not carry a
defensive-strength metric at all: defensive_rating, opponent_ppg,
pace and opponent_fg_pct all normalize to null — it returns only a
team's OWN stats. So defensive_rank_normalized cannot be computed and
opp_rank_stat remains underivable from this source. A test documents
the gap and will fail if that ever changes.
Consequence: A STILL DOES NOT EMIT, so the A-RATED marketing hold STAYS.
Reviving the opponent factor needs a different derivation (opponent
points allowed from scoreboard/schedule, or a different ESPN endpoint) —
logged as the concrete next item, not hand-waved as done.

FOUNDATION-FIRST re-order, phase 1 (tooling + safety).
BACKUP (highest-severity open item) — INSTALLED, not re-proven.
src/backupScheduler.js runs scripts/backup-db.sh nightly from inside the
API container, armed at boot in server.js. The container already has
SUPABASE_DB_URL, pg_dump and the Supabase route, so deploy == installed:
no host crontab, no Coolify click. Arming is deliberately opt-OUT (armed
whenever SUPABASE_DB_URL exists; BACKUP_CRON=0 kills it) because the S62
design was opt-in and nobody ever opted in — the DB went unbacked every
night for weeks. A failed run pages high-priority ntfy; silence is the
danger with backups.
Durability is the one part still needing a human: the container FS is
ephemeral, so a dump dies on redeploy unless BACKUP_REMOTE (off-box
rsync) or BACKUP_DIR (persistent volume) is set. The scheduler detects
that and pages a WARNING at boot rather than letting an undurable backup
read as "backed up". Runbook rewritten to lead with the code path.
MANUAL REGRADE TRIGGER — scripts/run-snapshot.js, runnable via
docker exec with no VYNDR_INTERNAL_KEY and no new HTTP surface. Runs the
SAME snapshotService.runSnapshot the cron runs (including the team-stats
refresh that powers opp_rank_stat), supports `all` and `--settle`, and
prints the grade/confidence distribution plus p_win/ev_pct presence —
which is the thing you actually want when verifying a grading change.
ACCESS BLOCKER, logged honestly in specs/model-train.md: there is no
VYNDR_INTERNAL_KEY in the local .env and SSH to the box times out from
WSL2, so I can neither curl the internal endpoints (which already exist
from S45) nor docker exec. The trigger is built and correct but only Kev
can run it until a key or SSH access exists. This is the highest-leverage
unblock for phases 2 and 3, which both need on-demand regrade+settle to
verify anything.
Also logged the standing cautions: CLV ledger stays private until
backtest-proven; "self-improving model" is unsupported marketing until
the loop closes; the engine is MLB/WNBA-calibrated and NFL/NBA/soccer
need their own calibration before the hub grades them (scaling gate).

Folds re-sequenced steps 1+2 into one change (Kev's call): same bug
family — features wired to sources that return null.
THE PROBABILITY LAYER WAS DEAD IN PRODUCTION. p_win/ev_pct/kelly/
model_odds/value were absent on 0/8 live grades because
gameLogService.getGameLogs returns null for MLB by construction and
depends on the offline Python service for NBA/WNBA, so meta.gameLogs was
[] for every sport. This was the S46 bug in a second location — that fix
gave featureCache an MLB branch (why grades still worked) but never the
estimator. featureCache.getStatRows now supplies normalized rows
([{date,[statType]:v}], most-recent-first) for every sport, feeding the
estimator AND consistency AND game_count_in_7d from one fetch.
VERIFIED on real props: p_win 25/25 WNBA, 8/8 MLB (was 0).
GRADE RANGE, ON MERIT — never by rescaling (permanent founder ruling:
minting A's without new information is a relabelled B sold as an A and
corrupts an append-only ledger).
- refreshTeamStats wired into runSnapshot — it had ZERO production
callers, so opp_rank_stat was permanently null and a +/-1.0 factor
could never fire. Test-env no-op (opsNotify precedent).
- L20 made SYMMETRIC: both branches were delta +1.0, so the season
baseline could only ever ADD. No negative path was a structural reason
D was unreachable. New l20_contradicts_* carries -1.0.
- game_count_in_7d derived from real logged dates (heavy_workload_7d).
- NOT wired, deliberately, with reasons inline: teamId (no team_id
column; getFeatures reads it top-level; factor also needs a starter-id
list) and season_type (ESPN 2 = REGULAR season; threading it raw would
fire veteran_in_playoffs in July). Dead code dressed as a fix is the
thing we are removing, not adding.
CALIBRATION GUARD (found by verifying, not assuming): consistency CV is
NBA-tuned; for a Poisson-ish stat cv ~ 1/sqrt(mean), so any stat with
mean < 4 auto-classifies boom_bust. First verification run showed 8/8 MLB
props boom_bust — a blanket -1.0 that dropped the board to all-C. Floored
at CONSISTENCY_MIN_MEAN=4 -> 'unknown' below. Absent beats wrong. MLB
low-count stats therefore still get no consistency factor: honest, not
fixed. Scale-free index-of-dispersion classifier is the open follow-up.
CONFIDENCE IS NOT A PROBABILITY: payloads carry confidence_basis:
'grade_band'. Corrected mlb-grade-degradation.md — its "25/25
grade<->confidence agreement" is a TAUTOLOGY (confidence is derived FROM
the letter, so it would report 25/25 even if every grade were wrong), not
a validation. Removed dead mlbGrader.js (referenced only by its own test)
and the stale computeFeatures comment claiming a penalty that never ran.
VERIFICATION (scripts/verify-grade-range.js, real props/logs/engine):
WNBA 25 props B 68%->32%, C 32%->64%, D 0->1 (4%); 11-step spread went
from 2 steps to 5 (C/C+/B-/D). The D is earned: Angel Reese assists o2.5,
p_win 0.365. Nothing flooded — grades got HARDER. A did not emit locally
because opp_rank_stat needs the Redis cache only prod populates (local
ceiling +3.0 vs the +4.5 A needs); reachability is proven arithmetically
and locked in tests. Prod A-emission is the outstanding fingerprint.
MARKETING HOLD: "A-RATED" (AccuracyBadge, TopSignals) is unsupported
until that fingerprint. Confirmed honest fallbacks render today —
/api/ledger/accuracy has B and C buckets only, so the badge shows
"MODEL · 63% HIT" and TopSignals self-hides. Nothing fabricated ships.

Steps 1-6 — make "real opportunities at takeable prices" the engine, not a filter.
1. DE-VIG (src/utils/devig.js): two-way multiplicative de-vig strips the vig and
returns fair prob + fair price per side + the overround. One side missing →
fair UNAVAILABLE (null), never faked. Method noted in code + the `devig_method`
field.
2. EV (devig.evPct): ev_pct = model prob × decimal − 1 at the graded side's
ACTUAL price. This is the ranking signal now, replacing raw |model−consensus|.
3. TAKEABLE gate (src/config/valueEngine.js, TAKEABLE_ODDS_CEILING −160 .. +200,
env-tunable): promoted surfaces only (hero/featured/alerts). The full board
still shows everything; Parlay Lab exempt; JUICE_ODDS_FLOOR (−400) stays the
absolute backstop underneath. Strict null-guard (Number(null)===0 would have
made a missing price "takeable").
4. VALUE flag: passes BOTH gates (takeable AND ev_pct ≥ VALUE_EV_THRESHOLD).
Grade = read quality; value = the price pays you. Shipped in payloads.
5. HERO v2 (heroPropService): highest ev_pct among takeable A/B reads — a huge
gap on a −900 line is trivia, not an opportunity.
6. VALUE TRIPLET: book_odds · fair_odds · model_odds on every read (snapshot,
hero, scan — they all spread the grade). Handoff documents the fields; the
rendering is Session-2 Design's job.
All wired in analyzeViaEngine1's existing p_win/kelly block (real quantile
probability × real book odds, or nothing). 33 new tests; suite 276/3306 green.

Follow-up to the rare-event under fix — the whitelist (doubles/triples/HR/SB)
was fragile: the same juiced-under problem exists for steals, blocks, and any
other low-frequency market, and a new stat would slip through.
The real signal is the book's own price. The doubles unders were priced -625 to
-1100 — laying 6-11x to win 1x on an ~82% event, with no value the model could
recover. So the PRIMARY guard is now stat/sport-agnostic: analyzeViaEngine1
refuses any read whose graded-side odds are past the juice floor
(JUICE_ODDS_FLOOR, default -400, env-tunable). That catches every version of
this — steals, blocks, anything — and it also keeps the public record honest
(those -800 "wins" hit ~82% of the time and would inflate the hit rate, the same
class as the projection-0 degradation).
The structural rare-event rules stay as the BACKUP for props with no odds
(list also expanded cross-sport: + steals, blocks). Normal + longshot prices
(-110, -250, +600) are preserved. 16 tests cover both layers.
Reported: the doubles projection was REAL per-player (not a fallback); the fix
is the price guard, not a bigger list.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Betting-logic audit: the CONSENSUS-vs-MODEL board flooded with fake reads like
"DOUBLES u0.5 · MODEL 0.2 · +edge" — the juiced under side of rare counting-stat
markets (doubles/triples/HR/SB), which is never a takeable edge and violates the
no-unders-default doctrine.
Report finding (item 3/4): the doubles projection is REAL per-player, not a flat
fallback — 'doubles' maps to a real game-log field (MLB_LOG_FIELD doubles→
doubles) and the live values varied (0.03/0.16/0.2/0.22). So no projection-gate
refusal for fakeness; the problem is purely structural (a rare event's real
projection always sits below a 0.5 line, so the under always "wins").
Fix (config-driven — src/config/rareEventMarkets.js, tunable stat list + line
threshold):
- Grade layer (analyzeViaEngine1): a rare-event UNDER at ≤0.5 is always REFUSED
(grade null + suppressed flag/reason). A rare-event OVER at ≤0.5 is refused
UNLESS the model genuinely projects the event above the line — because a
0.2-over-0.5 carries the SAME |edge| as the suppressed under and would just
take its rank on the board. The over grades normally once projection > line.
- Board layer (marketBreadth.collectBreadth): drops null-model rows so a
suppressed/ungraded prop can't rank a "MODEL —" placeholder onto the board.
10 suppression tests + config locks; also fixed a settingsPage book assertion
left over from the ESPN→theScore swap. Suite 274/3289 green, web build exit 0.

1+2. Checkout price was CODE-gated (founder price only with a valid founder
code) — so "Claim a Founder Desk" would have charged the $44.99 standard
price, not the advertised $34.99. Now it's SEAT-gated: resolveCheckoutPrice()
attaches the founder price while founder seats remain (< FOUNDER_SEATS_TOTAL,
read from the SAME countFounderSeats() truth as the ClaimMeter), and flips to
standard at seat 100. createCheckoutSession uses it; the founderCode param is
kept for back-compat but no longer drives price. The meter flips to "SOLD
OUT" at capacity. When the count can't be verified we honor the advertised
founder price (never overcharge).
- Also hardened countFounderSeats to manual pagination (the for-await form
broke on non-async-iterable list mocks).
3. Tests: resolveCheckoutPrice at seat 0 → founder, seat 100 → standard, the
99/100 boundary, null-count → advertised founder price.
4. Grace: invoice.payment_failed now sets a 14-DAY grace (spans Stripe's Smart
Retry window) instead of 48h — a transient decline no longer revokes access
mid-retry. Access is revoked only when Stripe actually cancels
(customer.subscription.deleted keeps its 48h grace). Test updated.

ESPN BET is defunct — PENN/ESPN terminated the deal; PENN rebranded it to
theScore Bet (Dec 1 2025) and ESPN is now exclusive with DraftKings. Removed
the ESPN BET entries from the BookChip map (web/src/lib/books.js) and added
theScore Bet (mono TS, slug thescore) as the successor. Added 'thescore' to the
backend oddsNormalizer ALLOWED_BOOKS so the feed's lines are accepted; synced
the bookWordmark test list. The ESPN references in src/config/sports.js are
ESPN's STATS API (data provider, unrelated to the sportsbook) — left untouched.
Flagged in specs/design-reference/HANDOFF.md that the design mockups' BookChip
row still shows ESPN BET and needs the same one-swap on the next refresh.

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.

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.

The degraded grades (projection=0 → model_value=0) are already settled in the
append-only ledger and must NOT be deleted (Data Semantics law). But their
hit/miss is noise, not model skill — they never had a real projection. So
getModelAggregate now filters `.gt('model_value', 0)` on both the settled and
pending queries: the rows stay in ledger_entries, but leave the public hit_pct /
CLV / per-tier record. `.gt` also drops NULL model_value. Post-fix no such row
can be written (projection<=0 refuses), so this only sheds the historical set.
This is the functional form of the "marking" the work order asked for — the
degraded locks are effectively marked as non-counting without mutating history.
Test builder mocks gained `.gt`; a lock asserts the filter is applied to both
queries. Suite 269/3253 green, web build exit 0.

The #1 board item — three grading bugs the phone audit surfaced, all in the
live Node grade path (engine1 + analyzeViaEngine1), fixed at the source.
1. PROJECTION=0 NOW REFUSES. projectionFor returned l5_avg even when it was 0
(finite, so the `== null` gate passed it) — 9/25 live grades graded on a
zero projection, producing a degenerate edge and a hollow grade. Now a
non-positive reference is not a projection: projectionFor skips it and falls
through to the next POSITIVE reference (l5 -> l20 -> per_90 -> xg); when none
is positive it returns null and the read REFUSES (insufficient_data). The
gate also gained an explicit `> 0` guard so the invariant is structural — a
grade can never be emitted with a non-positive projection. Fewer graded
props, honest.
2. EDGE_PCT. The formula was already (model - line) / line signed by direction
— Kev's intended semantics. The broken {20,60,100,140} cluster was the
proj=0 degeneracy ((line - 0)/line = 100%); with #1 those refuse, so the
fabricated 100s vanish and real edges flow. The main-line edge now reuses
the VALIDATED projection (edgePctFor accepts an optional ref) so edge and
the persisted projection can never diverge. Frontend |edge|>40 guard stays
as a safety net.
3. LETTER == THRESHOLD_TABLE(CONFIDENCE). engine1's hand-rolled
GRADE_TO_CONFIDENCE drifted a full sub-tier low (B -> 0.55, which the
canonical grade_thresholds.json calls B-) — the "B at 45%" the audit caught.
Now confidence is DERIVED from each grade's band MIDPOINT in
grade_thresholds.json (one source of truth, shared with the Python engine),
so applying the threshold table to any grade's displayed confidence resolves
back to the same letter. Proven for all 11 grades.

Replaced the generic reused shapes (triangle/star/plus/bolt…) with Design's
real per-archetype marks from the authoritative glyphDefs() (HANDOFF), and
aligned each archetype's color to Design's deduped palette — frontend
lib/archetypes.js + backend archetypeService.js kept in color-sync (the
cross-file test iterates the backend set). Badge test color expectations
updated to Design (BOMBER #FF9F45, CONDUCTOR #6C8CFF, ALPHA #7C5CFF,
FORTRESS #4C6FA5, …).
Scope + honesty:
- 29 non-combat archetypes wired to real marks + Design colors.
- COMBAT namespace (STRIKER/GRAPPLER/PRESSURE/COUNTER/FINISHER/GRINDER) left
untouched — it uses unicode CHAR glyphs + its own pinned colors + test
(FINISHER deliberately doesn't collide with the soccer FINISHER). Combat
could adopt Design's SVG marks in a follow-up.
- 39 Design marks are INERT (no classify() producer yet) — the 74 SVGs live in

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.

Every ACTIVE sport was graded at all five MLB slots (14/19/22/1/3 UTC). Sports
post lines on different clocks, so that inheritance was wasteful both ways:
WNBA props aren't posted at 14:00 UTC (10am ET) → that slot always graded 0
(the audit's "wnba:0"); soccer odds come from the 500/MONTH odds-api key, so
five slots/day is a third of the budget for 1-2 matches.
New src/config/sportCadence.js is the single source of truth (config-over-
constants). Mapped from reality + quota headroom (PropLine 9k/day abundant,
odds-api 500/mo scarce):
mlb 14/19/22/1/3 intraday (full grid — games+props all day)
nba 14/19/22/1/3 intraday (in-season fits; off-season self-skips empty)
wnba 19/22/1 intraday (afternoon→evening ET; drops the 14/3 waste)
soccer 14/19 NO intraday (WC live; 2 lean odds-api reads, key-protected)
The scheduler still fires at HOURS_UTC and the missed-cron watchdog still
references MLB (which runs every grid hour) — each slot now grades only
sportsForHour(h), and only intradaySports() get the 20-min refresh. Every
sport's hours are kept a subset of the firing grid (a boot-time guard + a test
warn if that's ever violated). Retune a sport by editing one table row.
Adaptive, not constant: near-zero when a sport is quiet, protecting the scarce
odds-api quota from being drained by noon.

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.

Wave 0 shipped NBA/WNBA grading off ESPN per-athlete gamelogs, but name→id
resolution went only through the v2 /search endpoint, which is unreliable at
the edges. Live probing surfaced the real coverage gap: search actually
resolves the right id for most names, but dual-league athletes (WNBA + NCAA —
e.g. Napheesa Collier, Brionna Jones) get a filters-only gamelog until a
`?season=` is supplied, so they silently returned insufficient_data despite a
full season of games.
Two fixes:
1. buildAthleteRosterIndex(sport) — aggregates every team roster for nba/wnba
into a complete { nameKey → {id, displayName, teamId} } map (canonical
accent-folded keys via playerName.nameKey). Bounded concurrency (6) over the
~15-30 team fetches, Redis `espnroster:{sport}` (24h) + in-memory mirror,
fully defensive (a failing team is skipped → partial index, never throws;
grouped OR flat athletes[] shapes handled; non-numeric ids dropped). This is
now the PRIMARY resolver in resolveAthleteId/getPlayerGameLog; the v2 search
stays as a backstop on a roster miss. A unique roster hit wins (S59 doctrine)
— a missing name beats guessing another player's id.
2. getPlayerGameLog retries the gamelog with candidate seasons (current +
previous calendar year) ONLY when the first parse comes back empty
(filters-only), unlocking the dual-league athletes. The common path is
untouched.
MLB path (statsapi) unchanged; settlement/snapshot/frontend untouched.
Live probe: WNBA roster index = 206 players (Collier id 3917450 / Lynx team 8,
Brionna Jones id 3058895 present); NBA index = 544. Collier now resolves
end-to-end with 20 gamelog rows (was NOT FOUND); Brionna Jones likewise; all
previously-working players (A'ja Wilson, Ionescu, Clark, Stewart, Plum) still
resolve. NBA hyphen names (Gilgeous-Alexander) resolve via nameKey folding.
Tests: tests/unit/espnRosterIndex.test.js (9, fail-then-pass on base adapter).
Full backend suite 3183 green; web build exit 0.

FREE ESPN news wire + championship-winner futures for the never-dark
offseason hub. Both graceful/empty, never fabricate a market value.
- newsService (mirrors injuryService): per-sport ESPN /news FEEDS, pure
parseNews → { sport, items:[{id,headline,description,published,type,
athlete?{name,key},team?,href}] }; athlete/team from categories[] only
(absent when not present). Cache 15m, injectable, offline-tested.
- oddsNormalizer.normalizeOutrights: NEW branch — outrights outcomes are
{name,price} with no point, so normalizeProps drops them; keeps them with
best-price-across-allowed-books per selection. + americanToDecimal.
- oddsService.FUTURES_KEYS: separate map (mlb/nba/wnba championship winner),
OUT of the daily SPORT_KEYS/snapshot budget.
- futuresService: getFutures(sport,deps) → { sport, updated_at, markets:
[{key,title,selections:[{name,price,prevPrice?,move?}]}] }. One outrights
call per 12h TTL (quota-disciplined), FUTURES_ENABLED gate. Price-move
(shortening/drifting/flat) mirrors computeLineDeltas SHAPE on odds not
line; prev prices persisted inside the futures:{sport} value (no new key).
linkNewsToMoves pure causal-tie helper.

Unblocks the self-learning loop for basketball. Once an NBA/WNBA grade
exists (Wave 0), it now settles against the FREE ESPN per-game log
(espnStatsAdapter.getPlayerGameLog) — the same {found, last10:[{date,stat}]}
contract MLB settlement already consumes. accuracy:{sport} + by_tier
calibration + the Wave-3 TierRecord light up automatically.
- outcomeService/ledgerService: defaultGetPlayerStats routes nba/wnba to
espnStatsAdapter.getPlayerGameLog; MLB stays on mlbStatsAdapter.
- outcomeService: sport-aware statValue + a SEPARATE NBA_BOX_KEY/NBA_COMBO
map (S11 three-map-split kept — never merged with MLB_LOG_FIELD). Combos
(pts_reb_ast, reb_ast, stl_blk, …) sum components; a missing component
never fabricates a total.
- logRowOnDate: ESPN gamelog rows carry a FULL ISO timestamp (a late tip
rolls past UTC midnight), so basketball date-matches on UTC OR ET date;
MLB keeps exact YYYY-MM-DD compare. Outcome `date` is normalized to the
ET calendar day so the accuracy window filter + idempotency key behave
identically across sports.
- Final-honesty guard: never settle a basketball row whose ET date is
today (an in-progress partial box). MLB is final-only + settles same-day,
so the guard is scoped to basketball. The ledger path is already guarded
(.lt('game_date', today)) for all sports.
- opsWatch: nba/wnba added to SETTLEABLE_SPORTS; zeroSettleAlarm gates them
behind a real-finals probe (finalsBySport) so an offseason/off-day's
stale pendings never false-page "settled 0". snapshotScheduler counts
yesterday's ESPN state==='post' events and feeds the map; MLB unchanged.
- snapshotScheduler: boot announce per settleable sport
([settle:mlb] [settle:nba] [settle:wnba]). Thrown-error paging already
covers the new sports (settleAll* loop every sport).
Tests: tests/unit/nbaSettlement.test.js (16) — WNBA hit/miss/push, combo
pra, idempotent re-run, unplayed/today game does NOT settle, accuracy:wnba
+ byGrade + by_tier populate, ledger WNBA settle. opsWatch (+5) — finals
off-day no page, finals present DOES page. MLB suites unregressed.

The Python nba_api service (gameLogService) is offline in prod, so
featureCache's non-MLB branch produced no l5/l20 averages →
projectionFor returned null → the ENTIRE NBA/WNBA slate refused
(insufficient_data). Only MLB actually graded.
Fix (free, no-auth, verified live):
- espnStatsAdapter.getPlayerGameLog(name, sport) — resolves name→ESPN
numeric athlete id via the v2 search (the v3 /search now returns
count:0; the v2 uid carries a:<id>, defaultLeagueSlug disambiguates
league), fetches the per-athlete gamelog, and parses per-game rows
keyed by VYNDR stat names (points/rebounds/assists/threes/steals/
blocks/turnovers + computed pra). Columns are indexed by the
response's own names[] array (NBA and WNBA orders DIFFER), never
positionally. Most-recent first, defensive (null on unrecognized
shape, never throws), cached (espngamelog:{sport}:{id} 4h + memory).
- featureCache.gameLogFeatures — falls back to the ESPN gamelog for
nba/wnba when the Python source returns null/empty, producing
l5/l10/l20 + rest_days + minutes_per_game via a new local
NBA_LOG_FIELD map + pure nbaGameLogFeatures (S11 three-map-split:
separate from MLB_LOG_FIELD).
Grade gates already whitelist all 8 NBA/WNBA stat types in both Node
paths (analyze.js + scan.js); no gate change needed.
Tests (hermetic, no network): espnGameLog.test.js (parser/resolver/
adapter) + featureCacheNba.test.js (the UNLOCK proof — empty features
refuse, ESPN-derived features grade). 3098 tests green; next build
exit 0.

The NBA/WNBA espnId was captured only from espnStatsAdapter (the offline-
Python fallback), unreliable in prod. Add espnAthleteIndex — a pure,
defensive harvester that builds { nameKey -> {espnId, headshotHref} } from
the ESPN schedule->summary/boxscore/leaders/injuries/roster feeds the
pipeline already calls (free, bounded mapLimit, cached, MLB->{}).
snapshotService now fills any player the primary stats-resolve left without
an espnId from this index, and stores a DIRECT headshotHref as headshotUrl
on the enriched grade (the exact URL, never 404s on a constructed path).
Threaded headshotUrl through slateAdapter.buildPlayerStripsFromProps ->
GameCard -> StatStrip -> PlayerAvatar/getHeadshotUrl (direct href wins over
the constructed one). MLB's MLBAM path is untouched. Soccer resolves only
via a direct href; absent -> honest monogram (API_FOOTBALL_KEY remains the
reliable soccer path, unwired).
getGameSummary now also passes through ESPN `rosters` (pre-game lineups
carry id + headshot). Everything graceful: any miss -> absent -> monogram.
Tests: tests/unit/espnHeadshotIndex.test.js (11) — fixture->index, snapshot
merge fallback, direct-href-wins, soccer honest monogram, malformed/cyclic
parse never throws. Full suite 3080 green; web next build exit 0.

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
(no public_profiles row) + by_tier; unknown/unpublished user handles stay
byte-identical 404; page renders house label + TierRecord + portrait crop.
3019 tests green (3012 -> 3019); next build EXIT=0.

Threads a REAL athlete id from the snapshot's per-player stats resolve (zero
new I/O) → enriched grade → grades:{sport} → slate strip → PlayerAvatar. Real
photo where an id resolves; team-colored monogram (never a gray silhouette,
never a broken image) where it can't. Ids are never fabricated.
Ingestion (Addition 1):
- espnStatsAdapter.getSeasonAverages now RETURNS the resolved ESPN athlete id
(was discarded) as espnId; non-numeric uid degrades to null.
- playerIntelService surfaces MLBAM playerId (MLB) / ESPN espnId (NBA/WNBA).
- snapshotService captures both per player and stores them on the enriched
grade beside archetype/team (null when unresolved → monogram path).
Thread → component:
- slateAdapter.buildPlayerStripsFromProps carries playerId/espnId onto each
strip; StatStrip → PlayerAvatar (accepts both ids; getHeadshotUrl routes by
sport: MLB→mlbstatic, NBA/WNBA→a.espncdn).
- Silhouette surfaces rewired to PlayerAvatar (branded monogram on null):
scan search dropdown (guarded MLBAM p.id) + tonight chips, SearchModal,
HotListPanel, GradeResultCard header. Scan grade card feeds the picked
MLBAM id through gradeAdapter.
- playerHeadshot pure URL logic extracted to CommonJS playerHeadshotUrl.js
(unit-testable; the .ts re-exports it). nfl/nhl added to ESPN_SPORT_PATH.

FIX 1 — Honest billing renewal render. VYNDR tiers are monthly, so a
`subscription_end` far in the future (the manually-seeded "RENEWS 6/9/2036"
founder row) is a comped/lifetime/seed value, not a renewal. New
web/src/lib/billingDisplay.js `classifyRenewal()` → date | none | lapsed |
unknown (strict Date.parse guard, MONTHLY_RENEWAL_MAX_DAYS=60). Profile page
renders the classified label for both the "Renews" stat and the
cancel-scheduled "Access ends" line — no raw far-future date. No DB row mutated.
FIX 2 — MLB namesake collision (James Wood → "Chicago Cubs"). searchPlayer now
collects ALL exact-nameKey matches instead of first-`.find`; a ≥2 collision
resolves ONLY via a confident teamHint (the prop's game participants, matched
against the cached /teams list with ESPN↔statsapi abbr reconciliation), else
refuses (null) — never guesses. The hint threads getPlayerStats →
resolvePlayerStats → snapshotService (built from each prop's home/away team).
Join invariant: a single-exact player whose team isn't in the hinted game has
its team DROPPED (null), so streaks/rosterlogs never tag a foreign team. Full
teamHint recovery shipped (not just the refuse fallback).
FIX 3 — DeskShowcase headline "A $1M terminal." → deadpan value-showing copy
"Every grade, every alt line, live." Prices ($44.99 / $34.99) unchanged.
Tests: billingDisplay.test.js (7), mlbNamesakeResolve.test.js (12,
disambiguation + join invariant + pure helpers), ds5PricingStates updated to
assert the new headline and no "$1M". Full suite green (237 suites / 2863

Signal-green #00D4A0 now means exactly ONE thing (edge/active/A-tier/CTA),
locked by tests that fail on violation. Part 1 of DESIGN-SPEC v2.
- web/src/lib/colorContract.js — pure CommonJS helpers: edgeColor(value)
colors edge/CLV/delta by SIGN (neg=var(--miss), pos=var(--g-a), 0=neutral);
gradeTierColor() (A/A+ green, B blue, C amber, D/F red, in lockstep with
vyndrTokens.gradeColor); gradeGlows() (A/A+ only); deltaE()/isSignalGreen()
CIE76 gate so no archetype hue dilutes the signal.
- GradeResultCard: edge confidence-strip + EDGE row route through edgeColor
(a -33.3% edge was rendering GREEN — audit #3); grade-hero glow gated to
A/A+ via gradeGlows (a glowing C devalued the cue); VYNDR INTELLIGENCE
panel de-flooded (neutral border, Form/Rest neutral not green — #15).
- LiveHeroProp: negative edge now muted red, not neutral (sign completeness).
- Archetype dedup off signal-green (both archetypes.js + archetypeService.js,
kept matched): DUAL THREAT/MOTOR #00D4A0, MIRROR #34D399, ARTILLERY/RANGE/
GHOST/BLADE #2DD4BF, BRUSH #3DDC84 shifted to distinct non-green hues (all
ΔE>=44 from #00D4A0). Within-sport uniqueness preserved.
- tests/unit/colorContract.test.js — 21 tests: helper units + source-grep
violation locks + archetype-green-dedup. QA.20-22 kept green.

ROOT CAUSE: the Dockerfile copied src/poller/scripts/supabase but NOT
content/. mediaEngine.js read content/stark-lines.json with an unguarded
module-load readFileSync; ENOENT in the image threw at require time, and
via app.js → routes/desk → deskService → mediaEngine that crashed the
ENTIRE API at boot. The Coolify healthcheck rolled back to the last
healthy image (4d2b27d), so every deploy since 219167e silently served a
14-hour-old build — S11 live tracking, S6 API code, the settlement boot
line, and SNAPSHOT_EXPECTED_INTERVAL were all merged but NOT running.
FIX (one train):
1. Dockerfile COPYs content/ into the runner image.
2. mediaEngine: stark-lines.json is OPTIONAL (garnish, never load-bearing)
— loadStark() try/catch → {} → posts render without the Stark kicker,
never a crash. Belt AND suspenders with #1.
3. src/preflight.js (§A4): boot prints '[preflight] OK' or 'DEGRADED'
naming exactly what content/env is missing — before the healthcheck
can fail silently. Run first in server.js.
4. Full fragility sweep: mediaEngine was the ONLY unguarded module-load
file read; coachSignals (config/coaches.json) was already lazy +
try/catch + copied. No others.
Verified: requiring app.js + deskService + mediaEngine with
stark-lines.json ABSENT now boots clean (reproduced the exact prod
failure). 2757 -> 2763 tests (tests/unit/bootResilience.test.js).
