3. ✅ Found React #418 hydration error + leftover `127.0.0.1:7838/ingest/` dev script on homepage (Hermes missed both)
4. ✅ Fixed EventFeed React #418 — PR #13 on `eltonaguiar/TORONTOEVENTS_ANTIGRAVITY` (mount-gate + defensive setMounted fallback)
5. ✅ Stripped 5 dev-instrumentation blocks from `TORONTOEVENTS_ANTIGRAVITY/index.html` (15 lines)
6. ✅ FTP-redeployed cleaned `index.html` to 50webs + tdotevent.ca (226 OK, verified 0 hits live)
7. ✅ Wired Hermes-jserr step into `.github/workflows/sports-smoke-and-e2e.yml`
8. ✅ Tightened spec third-party regex (excludes googleads.g.doubleclick.net + ad-network noise)

### Phase B — GHA workflow audit + fix
1. ✅ Reviewed all `/audit` + `/audit/hyrotrader/` GHA workflows
2. ✅ Fixed `quant-auditor-deep-nightly.yml` OUT_FILE/DATE_ONLY mismatch (4 nights of crashes resolved, commit `0562bb9a306`)
3. ✅ Confirmed `hyro-bridge-regen.yml` recovered manually (false-flag from investigator misreading local branch staleness)

### Phase C — Quarantine verification (E-rollout from Agent E design)
1. ✅ **E-D1:** Layer 1 unit tests + `blocklist_history.jsonl` schema doc (94/94 tests pass)
2. ✅ **E-D2:** Structured `blocklist_skip` logging in `quality_gates.py` + `strategy_blocklist.py` (verifier contract)
3. ⏸ **E-D3:** Generator `dry_run` gap doc (blocks Layer 2 generation tests; not yet implemented)

### Phase D — CLAUDE3 takeover (hedge-libs disposition)
1. ✅ Killed 9 Riskfolio-Lib files (dep no-install Py 3.14 + misdiagnoses FOREX edge decay + duplicates pypfopt fallback)
2. ✅ Quarantined 5 VectorBT + 4 pandas-ta POCs to `experiments/hedgelib_2026_05_10/`
3. ✅ Disposition doc at `updates/2026-05-10-hedge-libs-poc-disposition.md`

## Remaining tasks (open backlog)

### High priority
- [ ] **Merge PR #904 into main** — user-gated decision. Command: `gh pr merge 904 --squash --delete-branch`
- [ ] **v3b LLM-driven signal translator** — THE blocker for real edge verdicts. Per-spec structured `signal_spec` JSON via cheap engine call (~$1/run); dispatched to existing 6-handler registry. Likely flips several NO_EDGE → MIXED/GO once spec-faithful signals replace SMA proxy.
- [ ] **Re-fire P5 swarms with v3a numbers** (~$0.35) — current P5 verdicts cached from pre-v3a P3 stub numbers; fresh fire would update synthesis

### Medium priority
- [ ] **E-D3** — `dry_run` kwarg on smart_picks_engine + production_scanner + dashboard_generator. Blocks Layer 2 generation verification. Pre-doc: `audit_trail/GENERATOR_DRY_RUN_GAP.md`
- [ ] **CPCV upgrade** — swap walk-forward for CPCV in `p3_backtest_runner.py`. Closes `project_cpcv_gap_2026_04_28.md`. Use standalone purged-CV from `alpha_engine/integrations/` (mlfinlab CPCV DOA on Py 3.14)
- [ ] **Per-asset-class deep-dive swarm questions** — 35 specific questions across 7 classes captured in DAILY_IDEAS.MD §B. Drop into `fire_class_p1.py --question-set <name>` for targeted edge hypotheses

### Lower priority
- [ ] **Decay-replacement pipeline** — when `edge_stability_<CLASS>.json::consistency_verdict == DECAYING_EDGE`, trigger P1 swarm targeting "what replaces strategy X?"
- [ ] **HEAD-check rate-limiter** — pr-reviewer P2 finding; not blocking but worth adding `time.sleep(0.2)` between batches
- [ ] **Drift-pause activation Phase 1** — ship `config/strategy_probation.json` + `quality_gates.py::_load_probation()` + `is_on_probation()` + wire into `is_blocked_pick`. Behind `auto_probation_enabled=false` flag
- [ ] **Cross-link** between research_index.html and edge_stability.html ("see edge stability of currently-shipped strategies" + reverse)
- [ ] **NO_EDGE knowledge base** — `tools/research/no_edge_kb.py` aggregates negative-finding runs into queryable form
- [ ] **Tests for tools/research/** — pr-reviewer P2 finding; 3 most logic-dense paths (`p2_loader` weight<0.5 exclusion, `p5_loader` 3-engine tie, `_compute_metrics_from_returns` all-losing chunk)

### Process / hygiene
- [ ] **Feature branch divergence** — `feat/audit-dashboard-enhancements-hermes-2026-05-09` is 3152 commits behind main + 83 ahead. PR #879 conflicting. Either rebase or close + cherry-pick selectively
- [ ] **Stash cleanup** — 3 unresolved stashes on feature branch including peer WIP files

## Verbatim chat log (user prompts only — assistant outputs captured by file artifacts + commit history)

User prompts in this session, in order:

1. `okay we need links under findtorontoevents.ca/updates/index.html to those new pages you made`
2. `we also need a meausre of performance of our latest pick and identifying based on latest data and older data our "consistent edge" over time. (and maybe edge based on newer data ..)  Look into these asks more with an agent swarm consesnsus as to questions to ask and dig deeper with either more research or deep diive into performance by asset class, look int our edge finding code etc`
3. `proceed`
4. `Summarize the top prompts from this chat you feel are worth revisiting or deep diving into , and add to our DAILY_IDEAS.MD file`
5. `once done commit your files to github main`
6. `proceed , get it reveiwed by an an agent swarm`
7. `check in your claude peers on your tasks`
8. `Summarize your chat as a .MD , your achieved tasks, remianing tasks and our verbatim chat log:`

Earlier-session prompts (pre-compact, from prior context):

1. `proceed on next steps` (multiple times — open-ended go-ahead)
2. `proceed: JS audit verified. Hermes wrong on homepage...` (continuation prompt)
3. `fix hydration error etc.`
4. `FTP credentials are on our windows environment variables so redeploy and test if needed`
5. `if you need to test again after the related job(s) run then do that also`
6. `proceed autonomously , use an agent swarm, feeding into your suggested action plan & post-implemntation review plan as a .MD for review`
7. `proceed. create a set of todos based on this new items, and fire whatever is needed and continue going! ensuring progress every 30 minutes (talk to peers also)`
8. `drop your work to CLAUDE1.MD so your peer can see it and keep it up to date with your todos and complettion status and next steps`
9. `other agent (claude #3) had these.. it has been terminated, tagke over any tasks of theirs, proceed autonomously asking agent swarm for consensus and post-implementation for testing`
10. `fyi another claude instance (claude #3 lets call it was working on this )`
11. `agent # 4 is ended so feel free to take on or supplement their tasks as needed.`
12. `https://github.com/safishamsi/graphify` (URL drop with implied "evaluate this")
13. `map code and create claude skill to take advantage of intel from this if any`
14. `proceed`
15. `once done look into our hedge fund related github libraries and look for areas where we can leverage those and build picks into findtorontoevents.ca/audit dashboad , maybe under a new system and/or strategy. Also our multi-AI consensus (swarm conesnsus) Ruflo swarm and/or tools\swarm use those to get picks based on swaerm Consesnsus picks by asset class. Next conduct a series of multi-phase research swarms, e.g. 5 swarms per asset class, and conduct some deep research and create a series of html pages we can link from an entry under findtorontoevents.ca/audit/index.html --> For each asset class.. stocks/crypto/forex/etfs/futures/bonds/commodities..etc.. The research should cite sources and have date/time for the sources , and then run backtests and cross test the sources.. if there are no solid picks then continue reesearching for that asset class, until you find a better strategy that you can backtest.`
16. `proceed. create a set of todos based on this new research , and fire whatever is needed and continue going!`

Caveman-mode persistence reminders fired every turn (hook context, not user prompt).
