CHALLENGER-FIRST. The live ruler is byte-identical: CURRENT_RULER_VERSION is still v1_first_book, nothing here writes a cache, a grade or a ledger row, and no live code path calls consensusRuler yet. bookRoles.js splits one allow-list into three, because it was answering two different questions -- "can we show this?" and "can we price against this?" -- with the same list, which is what bent the ruler. TAKEABLE the user can actually bet here (drives best price / shopping) REFERENCE may price the fair-prob ruler; never surfaced as a place to bet EXCLUDED DFS pick'em + offshore, permanently barred from all pricing Two deliberate calls, both evidence-based: - The six PropLine-phantom books (caesars/fanatics/bet365/hardrockbet/ pointsbet/thescore) are KEPT despite the order saying remove. They returned zero PropLine quotes, but PropLine is not our only provider and the odds-api backup path may carry them. A book that never appears is never matched, which costs nothing; deleting them risks silently dropping real books on the backup with no upside. Recorded in PHANTOM_ON_PROPLINE rather than enacted as a deletion. - REFERENCE = exchanges + pinnacle + bovada + the four US majors, chosen off the measured coverage curve rather than theory. exchange_only is cleanest (order-book, ~zero vig) but covers 14.3% of MLB and 5.6% of WNBA; adding the US majors gives 28.1% / 46.3%. pinnacle, matchbook and polymarket measured 0% on both sports and add nothing. The honest limitation is recorded in the config: this is a MARKET consensus, not a SHARP one. consensusRuler.js: median de-vigged fair_prob across >=2 reference books posting BOTH sides at the SAME line. Median so one stale exchange cannot drag it. Different lines are never averaged, one-sided quotes never rule, and n<2 falls back to single-book LABELLED as such with the v1 stamp -- never silently mixed, because a column holding both is two rulers wearing one name. The challenger delta runs over the live feed and reports incumbent_book_ roles, which is the real headline: the incumbent is literally first-row- wins, so it reports what KIND of book has been acting as "the market". DFS pick'em has the highest coverage in the feed, so a DFS book can be it. 18 ruler tests + 37 total in the two new suites. Full suite 4021 passed.
