builtbykev f0543b57a4 Product identity + widen books for DISPLAY, model input byte-identical
IDENTITY (CLAUDE.md top + MASTER-PLAN header). VYNDR is a PREDICTIVE MODEL:
it projects what a player will DO and picks accurately. Market edge is a
BYPRODUCT of a good prediction, never the success criterion. Success =
the forecast is honest about its own confidence AND still ranks --
calibration and resolution, both. No edge/CLV term belongs in a pass/fail
gate; they are diagnostics we report, not thresholds a model must clear.
A model tuned to beat a closing line has been fitted to the market instead
of to the game.

Per-sport doctrine (Phillips 2022, classify by what players DO not by
position): each sport is its own model -- own variables, archetypes,
conditions, calibration, honest ceiling. Shared across sports: ONLY the
Bayesian inference math.

Truth Law: no fabricated data; honest-absent over invented; label
limitations in-band; provisional stays provisional until re-run;
documented is not verified.

PHASE 2 -- AGGREGATOR WIDENING (live). normalizeProps now emits every
DISPLAY book instead of 5 of 18. Before this we discarded 13 books of our
own accord and 64.8% of the MLB slate was invisible to users. Every prop
carries book_role (both/takeable/reference/dfs/offshore) so the display
layer can say WHAT a price is -- a fixed-payout DFS number and a two-way
sportsbook price are not interchangeable objects. Unknown books are still
dropped.

PHASE 3 -- MODEL GATE (the model does not move). bookRoles splits
MODEL_BOOKS (the legacy allow-list, character for character) from
DISPLAY_BOOKS. Both model paths re-filter before they pick a line:
gradeSlateService.dedupeProps (before first-row-wins AND before the limit)
and intradayRefreshService.indexOddsProps (which RE-GRADES at the current
line -- without the gate, widening would have silently moved locked lines
onto books the model has never been calibrated against). A test asserts
the graded set is byte-identical through the widening.

CURRENT_RULER_VERSION stays v1_first_book. The gate lifts only when the
MLB calibration is re-run on the consensus ruler and v2 is promoted.

HONEST FRAMING, recorded in the plan: this is an AGGREGATOR win and it
does NOT fix the model. WNBA still abstains -- a model problem, not a
coverage problem; it is better covered than MLB. MLB isotonic still
provisional. The consensus is MARKET, not SHARP: pinnacle, matchbook and
polymarket are 0% on both sports, so no sharp anchor exists in our feed.

Two superseded tests updated to stronger properties rather than deleted:
roleOf now names the KIND of book, and the normalizer test asserts the
display set widens WHILE the model set does not.

Gates: 4,027 tests / 322 suites green; next build exit 0.

builtbykev 77a58e4113 Arm harness on our scheduler + start closing-line capture (capture only)
PART A — HARNESS ARMED ON OUR OWN INFRA. snapshotScheduler now runs the
nightly backtest at HARNESS_HOUR_UTC (default 14), appends to
harness_results, and pages via opsWatch.harnessStaleAlarm — a validator
that stops running looks exactly like one that keeps passing. No external
dependency: the join is plain SQL through the service client and the
harness is a pure function. POST /api/internal/harness/run induces the
same code path on demand, because a scheduled mechanism is verified by
inducing it, never by waiting for a slot.

PART B PHASE 0 — GATE PASSED for what is capturable:
- C4 diagnosed: closing_line is ONE overwritable field with no timestamp
  and no provenance. captureClosing writes the current line and, when a
  prop fails to match, silently leaves the earlier value (= the lock) in
  place — so "captured a real close" is indistinguishable from "never
  updated". It is 92% equal, not 100%: 56 rows DID record movement, so
  the defect is provenance, not the value.
- Feeds: normalized props already carry BOTH raw side prices per book,
  with game_time, and the intraday refresh polls every ~20 min during
  slate hours — so the last observable pre-lock line is available.
- SHARP close: pinnacle is in ALLOWED_BOOKS -> a no-vig reference is
  capturable ("beat the market").
- ODAWA: NOT capturable. 'odawa' exists only as a UI preference option in
  onboarding/settings; it is in no adapter, no ALLOWED_BOOKS, no feed. An
  un-capturable source is a finding, not a gap to paper over.
- JOIN: must drop `line` from the natural key, because a close that MOVED
  off the graded line is the entire point of CLV. Verified safe — all 164
  current identity groups have exactly ONE line per
  (sport, player_key, stat, side, game_date). Zero ambiguity.

PART B PHASE 1 — CAPTURE ONLY, built test-first. The refusal was proven
before the capture logic existed: unbound game_time, doubleheader
ambiguity, a missed pre-lock window, or a one-sided price all record
missed_reason with NO price. A stale or mid-day line substituted for a
close would manufacture a CLV proof from a number that was never the
close.

migration 029 closing_captures: append-only, never overwritten (that is
the provenance C4 lacked), BOTH raw side prices so the existing de-vig
engine can compute a fair closing probability later, sharp vs book line
types kept distinct. Wired into the intraday refresh with a capture-rate
alarm — a missed close is unrecoverable.

NO CLV metric built, as ordered. This starts the clock.

Suite 284/3417 green, build exit 0.

builtbykev d3637e7abd S6 (a1): display — the full picture under the grammar
- specs/ROW-GRAMMAR.md: the row grammar law (slot order, color law, mark
  law, mobile stacking, no-truncation), locked by tests/unit/rowGrammar.
  StatStrip violations fixed: MovementChip before the grade (market
  context before model output); ViabilityChips after the archetype
  (identity is one contiguous run).
- Line-movement sparklines: intradayRefreshService.trackHistory captures
  real {t,line} points per grade (seeded with the lock, deduped when
  flat, capped 24) inside the snapshot write-back; StatStrip.LineSparkline
  renders at >=3 points (green toward / amber against / dim flat).
- Last-10 dot strips: services/last10Dots (streaksService accessors) ->
  /api/snapshot/:sport attaches last10_dots from rosterlogs:{sport};
  StatStrip.DotStrip renders vs the LOCKED line, newest first.
- CLV distribution: getModelAggregate emits clv_distribution (7 signed
  buckets, outliers clamped) only past the centralized n>=20 gate;
  ledger MODEL header renders the bar strip.
- Global search: SearchModal (cmd-K via GlobalHosts + window.__search),
  players via /api/players/search per sport + static lib/teams.js
  (soccer deliberately absent); Nav search icon + Search first in the
  mobile More sheet. Explore tab untouched.
- Landing LCP: fade-up floored at opacity .6 (hero h1 contentful on
  first frame, S33 visible-floor rule) + IBM Plex Mono preload:false
  (4 decorative font files off the slow-4G critical path).

2654 -> 2698 tests (226 suites) green; web build exit 0.

builtbykev 9ae64516e6 Session D (night2): Phase 2.5 — intraday refresh + directional movement
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
  9,000/day free capacity (3 keys x 3,000). Re-grades are internal compute.
- POST /api/internal/refresh/all for manual runs.
