Nothing is submitted without the requester's yes; none has been given.\n\nWHERE WE STAND. Board: 1st 528.4152, 2nd 528.3993, 3rd 528.3479, us 4th 528.3025 (TellMinLookup = LEAN's twin), 5th 528.2913; lb-4 528.1088. First needs about +0.11 over LEAN, third +0.045. Nothing measured so far supports either. Best confirmed contract is still LEAN: on 512 fresh engine seeds LEAN - lb4 +0.164 se 0.016, LEAN - qt1 +3.39 se 0.05 (e03-cheap-eng/qlite-a).\n\nROUND 3 RESULTS (read this episode). Tables are spent: full tables beat the U1 compression by +0.001..+0.006 (se 0.004..0.006), refits -0.002..-0.005. Price beliefs are spent: twocomp +0.003..+0.007, lattice +0.010 se 0.009 at 175k+ gas, rival-pin band -137 (the split spot is after the retail fill). Cheap rival tracker q-lite: +0.039 se 0.004 on the replica, passed T/F/G (22,390 bytes, 47,094 chars, peak 199,777), but on the engine CAND - LEAN +0.0036 se 0.0037 (512 seeds): dropped, as the requester said. AGE pull (alpha 0.7*age/(age+1)) +0.020 se 0.004 on the replica; its Solidity port and engine run (e03-cheap-sol, e03-cheap-eng, key age-thr) were still running: read them, but a replica +0.02 is under the +0.05 bar. Side finding: tables 1c and 2c are never read in LEANBASE (2,129 dead bytes), untested on the contract. Replica noise: paired se about 0.0024 at n 1,024; single seeds move by up to 0.5 on a 5e-7 bps table change.\n\nREQUESTER NOTE 2 (19:06Z) FOLLOWED: do not wait for comp-knots (cancelled e03-tab-ref, -sol, -both, -eng); round 4 all on LEAN: (a) learned fee correction 4 items with staged build and 512-seed engine run after a head clearing +0.05 on the holdout, (b) exact rival state 2 items, (c) per-run parameters 1 item; bring back a contract only if it beats LEAN by at least +0.05 on 512+ fresh engine seeds.\n\nTWO THINGS I FOUND THAT CHANGE THE PLAN.\n1) The kit's fast replica (ammfast) has only qt1-ref, TwoComp and COMBO, and its residual-head hook is COMBO-only; it cannot train on LEAN as shipped. So e04-fastlean (2 copies) first ports LEANBASE to a compiled kernel with a general head hook and a parity check (field ready); e04-head-train waits on it (pairing batch, settled) and stops with advance false if no port is ready.\n2) The engine (benedictbrady/amm-challenge@6b6921f8d463314aa7c96234e1be25a25245f704 amm_sim_rs/src/amm/cfmm.rs) recomputes k = reserve_x*reserve_y from the current float reserves on every quote and updates reserves incrementally; Taylor's replica2.py uses the constant K = 1e6 and runs the rival before us, while engine.rs puts the submission first. Unverified lead: the rival's x*y drifts off 1e6 on the engine, so q-lite's exact split test (constant sqrt(1e6*0.997)) rarely fires there. That would explain +0.039 -> +0.004, and it bears on (b), whose premise is \"the rival's k stays fixed\". e04-split-engine (2 copies) measures the engine hit rate through the gas channel and compares the sources. If the test can be made engine-exact, the replica's +0.039..+0.048 (and part of the ORACLE's +0.153) may be reachable on the engine: that is the most promising open lead.\n\nBATCHES SPAWNED (19 items; all json).\ne04-fastlean copy-a, copy-b -> ready, parity, runs_per_core_s, code_zb64.\ne04-head-train lin, h4x4, h8x4, lin-wide (after e04-fastlean) -> curve, holdout, advance (holdout >= +0.05 and mean - 2se > 0), weights, reference_zb64.\ne04-head-sol same keys (after head-train, check advance = true; linux-x64) -> gates, all_pass, code_zb64.

Also cancelled: e02-rival-ceiling (its last item, price-edge, was stuck since 15:18Z; the other 4 were read in episode 3).\n\nITEMS. 150 max; 42 used before this episode, 5 or 6 freed by the cancels, 19 new: about 56 used.

Leased through episode 3: up to 10004559. 10002000..10003023 (e03-tab-eng) retired unused. This episode: 10005000..10005031 (head-sol G), 10005100..10005227 (split-engine), 10006000..10008047 (head-eng). NEXT FREE: 10009000.

Never set minCpus or minMemoryGb (episode 1 hung with no capable worker); require at most platform linux-x64, and only for engine or Solidity work. A replica gain does not carry to the engine by itself (q-lite): judge only on engine seeds. Limits: 50,000 source chars, 24,576 runtime bytes, afterSwap peak 245,000 with 0 out-of-gas.\n\nNEXT EPISODE. 1) Failures first: say what failed and why. 2) e04-split-engine: if router_differs and engine_exact_test is not null, spawn a build of the engine-exact split test on LEAN (T/F/G, then 512 engine seeds, staged), and tell the requester the replica is not exact for rival inference. If the hit rate on the engine matches the replica, the lead is dead: say so. 3) Heads: if one has beats_lean_by_0_05 true, confirm on 2,048+ fresh seeds (from 10009000) and stack it with whatever else passed; if none trained to +0.05, the approach is spent at these sizes. 4) rival-exact and run-params: build only what has advance true, and for rival-exact only once split-engine says the inference holds on the engine. 5) Read age-thr's engine result and the lean-seed verdict. 6) If nothing clears +0.05 over LEAN on the engine, tell the requester plainly: LEAN (= our 4th-place entry's twin) is the best confirmed contract, first place is not supported by any measurement, and name what was tried.",

Write a Numba (or equally fast) version of the replica step plus LEANBASE. Where LEANBASE uses big integers, which Numba lacks, use binary64 and report the parity cost. Add a hook called once per callback after LEANBASE has chosen its two fees: it receives a feature vector and a weight array and returns two additive corrections (bid, ask) in fee units, applied before the policy's own fee clamp; zero weights must reproduce LEANBASE. Expose at least these features, all computable in the contract from its state and the callback: the kit head's 8 (docs/ammfast.md), plus steps since the rival estimate was last bound by the router, steps since our last trade, trade size relative to our reserve, trade side, LEANBASE's own two fees, and whether the callback looked like an arb.\nCheck. Parity against CPython LEANBASE on replica seeds 64000..64063 and 10000..10063 (edge per seed), and warm speed in runs per core-second.\nResult: one JSON object with ready (true only if at least 120 of the 128 seeds agree within 1e-6 and the absolute mean difference is at most 0.01), parity {n, within_1e6, mean_diff, max_abs_diff}, runs_per_core_s, features (name, definition, range), hook (signature), code_zb64 (base64 of a zlib tar of all that is needed, at most 40,000 characters), run (exact commands from a clean directory to evaluate a weight array on a seed range), source_sha256 of the main file, not_done.",

Your size: {{size}} = {{arch}}.\nInputs. The results of batch {{after.batch}} are among your inputs: two independent fast ports of LEANBASE with a head hook. Use one whose ready is true (the faster); rebuild it from its code_zb64 and first confirm that zero weights reproduce LEANBASE on seeds 64000..64015. If neither is ready, or it does not rebuild, do no training: return advance false with the reason in not_done.\nDo. Fitness of a weight vector on a block of replica seeds = mean over the block of (edge with the head - edge with zero weights), same seeds. Optimise with CMA-ES (pip install cma), sigma0 0.04 on weights scaled so that 1.0 means about 1 basis point of correction, at least 100 generations, population at least 4+3*ln(n) for n weights, 512-seed blocks that alternate between 64000..64511 and 64512..65023. Bound each correction to at most 8 basis points with an activation that is cheap in integer arithmetic (x/(1+|x|) or a hard clip, never tanh or exp), and standardise features with fixed constants you write down, since a Solidity copy has to reproduce the head within 0.01 basis points and add under about 40,000 gas to the worst callback. Checkpoint every generation; run in chunks under 8 minutes. If that cannot finish in about 40 minutes of computing, shrink the block to 256 seeds, then generations to no fewer than 60, and say which.\nThen freeze the best weights (by both blocks, not one lucky block) and run the holdout once: seeds 10000..12047, head against zero weights, paired. Do not tune on the holdout.\nResult: one JSON object with size, port_used (item key, source_sha256), n_weights, features_used (name, definition, standardising constants), activation, cap_bps, curve (per generation: best and mean fitness, block), train {mean_diff, se, n} on each block with the frozen weights, holdout {mean_diff, se, n, share_of_seeds_below_zero}, advance (true only if the holdout mean_diff is at least 0.05 and mean_diff minus 2 se is above 0), weights (exact numbers), reference_zb64 (base64 of a zlib tar: the head as a standalone Python function plus 2,000 input-output rows to test a port; at most 30,000 characters), gas_estimate (operations and storage reads a Solidity copy needs), seeds_used, shrunk (what, if anything), not_done.",

Never invent a missing value: list it in not_done.\nYOUR ONE PIECE ({{copy}} of two independent copies): find out why a rival tracker that gained +0.039 on our Python replica gained only +0.004 se 0.004 on the Rust engine, by measuring on the engine how often its \"split test\" fires.\nBackground. The router splits retail orders between us and a rival pool (fixed 30 basis points). The split test inverts the router's formula from our own fill to get the rival's state, assuming its x*y is exactly 1e6, and accepts only a near-exact match: about 78% of tries on the replica. Contract with the test (qlHit, TellMath.qHit): A/5718a00bf95a80e2c2f0073071fa9b94d59be643e3e577793b9fd3e9cd2cc354 (code_zb64, harness_zb64). Base contract LEAN: A/a79a3606add967bb8f8ec2af8ef3d61bafb597419c488133597c8af5b9d34505.

Unverified lead: cfmm.rs recomputes k = reserve_x*reserve_y from rounded reserves on every quote, the replica uses the constant 1e6; execution and arb order may differ too.\nDo. 1) The engine reports only edge and gas, so count through gas: build three variants of the tracker contract that return exactly LEAN's fees (the test is computed, never used): V0 burns nothing, V1 burns about 20,000 extra gas (a loop) on each try, V2 on each accept. Then tries = (calls*mean_gas of V1 - of V0)/burn, hits likewise from V2. Check all three match LEAN's edge on every seed. Run them with the block driver (driver_zb64 of A/764c9461a9f3bab6e277178f4bb48553d1b97c6cca33bed016f7c9bfd611cc42; --strategy name=PATH ... --seeds B B+31 --lease {{lo}} {{hi}} --block 32 --budget 400; kit https://raw.githubusercontent.com/identity-md-launches/goal-3178-build-shared-evaluation-kit/45e7563d1a29ffca9d608fdf60c90bf2624d2d01/ setup_fast.sh --cache scratch/cache --scratch scratch) on engine seeds {{lo}}..{{hi}} only, leased to you.

Report the oracle's gain for sigma alone, rate alone, and all together. 2) If the best oracle gain is under +0.02, stop there. 3) Otherwise LIVE: estimate the parameters inside the run from what afterSwap sees (our trades' sizes, sides and timestamps, prices implied by arbs), switch level as the estimate firms up, and report the gain and how quickly the estimate becomes right (share of runs at the correct level after 500, 2,000 and 5,000 steps).\nRules.
