v0.5.2

Six readouts on the Findings screen described the bet rail while a strategy held the dice.

None of them failed, which is why each had to be noticed by eye. The rail is a real player with real numbers, so every one of them answered confidently about somebody who was not playing.

Fixed

The wealth fan drew one flat line at the buy-in. It traced the bet rail, and a strategy run leaves the rail with no live bets, so what it drew was a player who never bets — 200 of 200 traced sessions dead flat. The engine had no strategy-aware trace at all; trace_program_wealth is now the compiled-player twin of trace_wealth, seeded and constructed exactly as run_program_session so a traced session is the session the sweep ran.

The house edge went missing, then reported the pass line's. A strategy has no closed form — its stakes are conditional, so there is no flat-rate blend to solve. The first fix asked whether the rail had bets ticked, which is the wrong question: the rail keeps its selection while a strategy plays, because switching to Rules must not discard what was on Checkboxes. So with the default pass line still on, Findings reported −1.41% per resolved dollar — the pass line's edge — for a run the pass line took no part in. The edge is now measured where no closed form exists: drift over handle, labelled as measured and over how many sessions, because a counted edge carries sampling error and a solved one does not.

The House Line asserted a strategy broke even. It was guarded on flat stakes and no quit target, but not on there being a rail at all. With none, the drift solves to zero and the line was drawn at exactly the buy-in and called an expectation; with the rail left as Checkboxes had it, it was drawn at the rail's expectation, which is worse for looking like a real number.

The Anchor offered thirteen pressing systems to a strategy that declares its own. Choosing one re-simulated the empty rail under a progression nobody had picked, and drew it as this strategy pressed differently.

The histogram was captioned "Flat (no press)" over every strategy. That was the rail's progression. It now reports what the strategy declares, and tells apart the cases worth distinguishing: none, one system (and whether it covers every stream or only some bets), or several. It reports declarations only — a strategy can also press from its rules, and no phrase over a histogram summarizes a conditional ladder honestly — so the flat case reads "no press declared" rather than "no press", which would be false of exactly that strategy.

The status bar said "no bets selected" when a strategy was playing. That strategy has an edge; it simply is not solvable from the rail.

Changed

The bankroll, the table minimums and the house rules are on the Rules tab too. Picking Rules chose the strategy and hid all fifteen run-scope settings, because they hung off the bet rail's branch of the same conditional. None of them belongs to the rail, and place_the_point is a table rule deciding what a strategy may legally bet that was reachable only while the strategy was not playing. The cost was not a missing control but a forced trip across the player switch to reach it, which leaves you on the tab where Run means the rail plays.

The compiled-strategy performance tripwires are set from a distribution rather than from the last reading. They fired on a commit that added a PDF and changed no engine code — the second time the gate went red on a machine rather than on a change. Six CI runs over one unchanged engine read 3.72× to 4.76× on the loaded configurations against a 4.5× tripwire. Both tripwires now sit about four standard deviations above the mean, leaving a catastrophe detector — an interpreter three times slower still trips it — and giving up detecting drift of a few percent, which nothing measured on a shared runner can do honestly. The table is published to the run summary on every run so the trend stays readable.

Known gaps

• Only Findings and Replay were audited for this. Explorer and Duel read the same configuration and have not been checked against a strategy run.
• The pressing caption reports press declarations, not presses driven by rules.
