PHASE 1 — cron capture needed NO wiring. Verified in code: the scheduler
tick calls runAll = snapshotService.runAllSnapshots, which loops
runSnapshot per sport, which already carries the onGraded -> retention
hook. The scheduled path and the manual path are the SAME function. The
reason no cron cycle had been captured is simply that no slot has fired
since retention deployed (slots are 14/19/22/1/3 UTC; retention landed
~02:55). Induced proof follows the deploy.
PHASE 2 — archetype/team/opponent were permanently null because retention
persisted at GRADE time, before enrichment attaches them. Retention still
COLLECTS at grade time (the only moment the feature vector exists) but now
PERSISTS after enrichment, merging those three fields via
retentionService.mergeEnrichment. The merge is pure and fills ONLY those
three fields — features and every model output are grade-time values and
must never be rewritten by enrichment; a test asserts that. Unmatched rows
(refusals not in the enriched slate) keep nulls rather than guesses. The
empty-slate early return now persists too: a refusal-only slate is still
history worth keeping.
PHASE 3 — ZERO-WRITE ALARM. opsWatch.retentionZeroWriteAlarm pages at
missed-snapshot severity when a slot GRADED props but retention wrote
fewer rows than the slate (or nothing). runSnapshot now returns
retentionRows so the scheduler can evaluate it. Retention is best-effort
by design so it can never break a snapshot — which means a broken write is
silent by construction. This is the counterweight. A slot that graded
nothing never false-pages; an absent count reads as NOTHING and still
pages, distinct from a reported 0.
Suite 280/3349 green, build exit 0. Outcome stamping deliberately NOT
implemented (depends on the settlement fix).

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.
