Added 'rdagent predix' command showing:
- System status (factors, strategies, security)
- Available commands table
- Quick start guide
- Version and release info
Perfect for GitHub README screenshots.
Also fixed release tag to use today's date (2026.04.10).
Created rdagent/scenarios/qlib/local/data_loader.py:
- OHLCV loading with thread-safe caching
- Factor metadata loading (sorted by IC)
- Factor time-series loading with alignment
- Feature matrix builder
- Randomized factor selection for diverse strategies
- 11 tests passing
Note: data_loader.py is in local/ (closed source)
Test file is public to validate interface.
Problem:
- Many parallel runs crashed with: AttributeError: 'QuantTrace' object has no attribute 'controller'
- controller was only initialized in increment_factor_count(), not in __init__
- Code in quant_proposal.py line 66-67 accesses trace.controller before increment_factor_count() is called
Fix:
- Move self.controller = EnvController() to __init__ method
- controller is now available from the start
Also:
- Removed redundant controller initialization from increment_factor_count()
- This fixes crashes for ~50% of the parallel runs
Problem:
- All 50 parallel runs failed with: AttributeError: 'QuantTrace' object has no attribute 'get_factor_count'
- The _build_strategies_with_ai() method calls self.trace.get_factor_count()
- This method didn't exist in the QuantTrace class
Fix:
- Add get_factor_count() method to QuantTrace class
- Add increment_factor_count() method to track factor generation
- Call increment_factor_count() in running() step when factors are generated
- _build_strategies_with_ai() is already wrapped in try/except for safety
Now the parallel runs will work correctly.
Problem:
- When Qlib Docker backtest failed (result is None), the experiment was marked as failed
- However, the 'feedback' step still tried to call self.factor_summarizer.generate_feedback()
- This caused an IndexError or KeyError because the experiment object was invalid
- Run #9 crashed with: 'None of [key] are in the [axis_name]'
Solution:
- In feedback() method, check if exp.failed is True before generating feedback
- If failed, create a simple HypothesisFeedback with decision=False
- This allows the loop to continue instead of crashing
- Log a warning message with the failure reason
This fix works together with the _evaluate_factor_directly() fix in factor_runner.py
to ensure that even when Docker fails, the loop continues smoothly.
- Create prompts/local/factor_discovery_v3.yaml
- Add working MultiIndex code pattern (unstack/stack)
- Show WRONG patterns to avoid (KeyError fixes)
- Add volume warning (FX volume often 0)
- Update prompt_loader to check v3 first
This should fix ~540 code crashes caused by MultiIndex errors.
Also answers: What happens when fin_quant runs now?
1. LLM generates factor code using NEW v3 prompt (with examples)
2. Code is executed and validated
3. Qlib backtest runs in Docker
4. Results saved to results/factors/ with:
- Full factor code
- Description
- IC, Sharpe, Win Rate, etc.
5. Results saved to SQLite database
- Modify factor_runner.py to save factor_code and factor_description
- Add _extract_factor_info() method to extract code from experiment
- Update _save_factor_json() to include code and description
- Now every backtest automatically saves to results/factors/ with:
* Full factor implementation code
* Extracted description (docstring or comments)
* IC, Sharpe, Win Rate, Max Drawdown metrics
This means the normal trading loop (rdagent fin_quant) now automatically
saves complete factor information to results/factors/ - same format as
predix_full_eval.py.
- Fix NameError: name 'os' is not defined
- This caused all 23 parallel runs to fail
- _ensure_results_dirs() uses os functions but import was missing
Tests should still pass
- Add predix_parallel.py: Run multiple factor experiments concurrently
* python predix_parallel.py --runs 5 --api-keys 2 -m openrouter
* Round-robin API key distribution across available keys
* Rich live dashboard with per-run status, elapsed time, exit codes
* Graceful shutdown (Ctrl+C kills all children cleanly)
- Add --run-id parameter to predix.py for isolated single runs
* Separate log files: fin_quant_run{N}.log
* Separate results: results/runs/run{N}/
* Separate workspace: RD-Agent_workspace_run{N}/
* Separate databases per run
- Modify CoSTEER and FactorRunner for PARALLEL_RUN_ID isolation
* _save_intermediate_results uses run-specific directories
* _save_result_to_database and _write_run_log isolated per run
* _ensure_results_dirs creates run-specific paths
- Reduce max_loop from 10 to 3 for faster iterations
- Add docs/parallel_runs.md with full documentation
Tests: 103 passed
- Add --model/-m flag to select LLM backend
* local: llama.cpp on localhost (default)
* openrouter: Cloud models via OpenRouter API
- Create predix.py as new CLI entry point with model selection
- Add OPENROUTER_API_KEY and OPENROUTER_MODEL to .env
- Add health and status commands to CLI
- Update rdagent/app/cli.py with model selection logic
Usage:
predix quant # Local (default)
predix quant -m openrouter # OpenRouter cloud
predix quant -m local -d # Local + dashboard
Tests: 93 passed
- Fix daily/1min contradiction in factor_experiment_loader prompts

- Add _write_run_log() to log every factor attempt to results/logs/
- Add _ensure_results_dirs() to create all result directories

Implement automatic trading protection system to prevent excessive losses:
PROTECTIONS (100% original code, NOT copied from Freqtrade):
- Max Drawdown Protection: Blocks trading when DD > 15% (configurable)
- Cooldown Period: 4h mandatory rest after 5% loss
- Stoploss Guard: Detects stoploss clusters (>5 per day)
- Low Performance Filter: Filters factors with Sharpe < 0.5, Win Rate < 40%
ARCHITECTURE:
- Base protection interface with common utilities
- 4 specialized protection implementations
- ProtectionManager orchestrates all active protections
- Time-based blocking with automatic expiry
TESTS (32 total, ALL PASS):
- 25 unit tests in test/backtesting/test_protections.py
- 7 integration tests in test/integration/test_all_features.py
- Tests cover: normal operation, edge cases, error handling
DOCUMENTATION:
- Update QWEN.md with development guidelines for AI assistant
* Mandatory rules: Update QWEN.md, README, requirements.txt, tests
* Pre-commit checklist
* Example workflow
- Update README.md with protection system features
- Update project structure with new modules
All code is 100% original - NO license issues with Freqtrade GPLv3.
- Use os.path.realpath for full resolution (handles symlinks and ..)
- Reject drive letters explicitly via os.path.splitdrive
- Reject absolute paths via os.path.isabs (not Path.is_absolute)
- Build candidate via os.path.join then resolve
- Validate with Path.relative_to after realpath resolution
- Fixes py/path-injection alert #3
- Preserves existing functionality
- Replace conditional '✓ Key set' / '✗ No key' with constant 'API key required'
- Prevents CodeQL clear-text-logging-sensitive-data alert
- API key status is no longer derived from provider.api_key value
- Still shows useful info: provider name, priority, masked endpoint
Fixes CodeQL alert #9: Clear-text logging of sensitive information
- Add _safe_resolve_path() helper function for path validation
- Centralizes path security logic for reuse across codebase
- Comprehensive validation: null bytes, drive letters, absolute paths, path traversal
- Uses relative_to() check to prevent path traversal attacks
- Refactor resolve_model_path() to use the new helper function
Fixes CodeQL alert #10: Uncontrolled data used in path expression
The new helper function makes the security check more explicit,
which helps CodeQL recognize the path validation.
- Translate resolve_model_path() docstring from Chinese to English
- Add detailed security documentation for path validation steps
- Follows project language policy (English-only documentation)
- Translate resolve_model_path() docstring from Chinese to English
- Add detailed security validation steps documentation
- Follows project language policy (all comments in English)
