-# Introduction
-
-!!!!!This dev container is not for public development!!!!!!
-!!!!!Please don't use it if you are just a public open-source user.!!!!!!
-
-# Steps to run the dev container (for internal use only)
-
-Prerequisites(this is the reason why this dev container is not for public use):
-
-- Make sure you have the `rdagentappregistry.azurecr.io/rd-agent-mle:20250623` image locally & DevContainer is installed in your IDE
-- The kaggle dataset is located at `/home/shared/RD-Agent/kaggle`
-
-1. Open the project and select "Open In DevContainer"
-2. Set up your Kaggle Key (do not share this; other internal URLs are hardcoded in the config files)
-
-```bash
-export KAGGLE_USERNAME=
-export KAGGLE_KEY=
-```
-
-3. Run: python rdagent/app/data_science/loop.py --competition nomad2018-predict-transparent-conductors
-
-
-# Additional Notes
-- Please install and use this Dev Container in VS Code.
-- You **must open VS Code remotely and enter the `RD-Agent` directory before running the DevContainer configuration (`.devcontainer/devcontainer.json`)**. Otherwise, the workspace and path mappings will not work as expected.
-- To open the DevContainer correctly in VS Code:
-  1. Remotely connect to the machine and open the `RD-Agent` folder in VS Code.
-  2. Press `Ctrl+Shift+P` (or `Cmd+Shift+P` on Mac), type and select **"Dev Containers: Reopen in Container"**.
-
-
-
-# How to grade your submission in the DevContainer
-
-1. save your submission file in `./sumission.csv`
-
-2. Run evaluation
-DS_COMPETITION=<your competition name>
-conda run -n mlebench  mlebench grade-sample submission.csv $DS_COMPETITION --data-dir /tmp/kaggle/zip_files/

-# Microsoft Open Source Code of Conduct
+# Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct
 
-This project has adopted the [Microsoft Open Source Code of Conduct](https://opensource.microsoft.com/codeofconduct/).
+## Our Pledge
 
-Resources:
+We as members, contributors, and leaders pledge to make participation in our
+community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body
+size, visible or invisible disability, ethnicity, sex characteristics, gender
+identity and expression, level of experience, education, socio-economic status,
+nationality, personal appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity
+and orientation.
 
-- [Microsoft Open Source Code of Conduct](https://opensource.microsoft.com/codeofconduct/)
-- [Microsoft Code of Conduct FAQ](https://opensource.microsoft.com/codeofconduct/faq/)
-- Contact [opencode@microsoft.com](mailto:opencode@microsoft.com) with questions or concerns
+We pledge to act and interact in ways that contribute to an open, welcoming,
+diverse, inclusive, and healthy community.
+
+## Our Standards
+
+Examples of behavior that contributes to a positive environment for our
+community include:
+
+* Demonstrating empathy and kindness toward other people
+* Being respectful of differing opinions, viewpoints, and experiences
+* Giving and gracefully accepting constructive feedback
+* Accepting responsibility and apologizing to those affected by our mistakes,
+  and learning from the experience
+* Focusing on what is best not just for us as individuals, but for the
+  overall community
+
+Examples of unacceptable behavior include:
+
+* The use of sexualized language or imagery, and sexual attention or
+  advances of any kind
+* Trolling, insulting or derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks
+* Public or private harassment
+* Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or email
+  address, without their explicit permission
+* Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a
+  professional setting
+
+## Enforcement Responsibilities
+
+Community leaders are responsible for clarifying and enforcing our standards of
+acceptable behavior and will take appropriate and fair corrective action in
+response to any behavior that they deem inappropriate, threatening, offensive,
+or harmful.
+
+## Scope
+
+This Code of Conduct applies within all community spaces, and also applies when
+an individual is officially representing the community in public spaces.
+
+## Enforcement
+
+Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be
+reported to the community leaders responsible for enforcement at
+nico@nexquant.io.
+All complaints will be reviewed and investigated promptly and fairly.
+
+## Attribution
+
+This Code of Conduct is adapted from the [Contributor Covenant][homepage],
+version 2.0, available at
+https://www.contributor-covenant.org/version/2/0/code_of_conduct.html.
+
+Community Impact Guidelines were inspired by [Mozilla's code of conduct
+enforcement ladder](https://github.com/mozilla/diversity).

+### 1. Fork and Clone
 
-## Code of Conduct
+```bash
+# Fork the repository on GitHub, then clone your fork
+git clone https://github.com/YOUR-USERNAME/NexQuant.git
+cd NexQuant
 
-Please adhere to the [Code of Conduct](CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md) in all your interactions with the project.
+# Add upstream remote
+git remote add upstream https://github.com/TPTBusiness/NexQuant.git
+```
 
-## Reporting Issues
+### 2. Create a Branch
 
-If you encounter any issues or have suggestions for improvements, please open an issue on GitHub.
+```bash
+# Use conventional commit prefixes in branch names
+git checkout -b feat/your-feature-name
+# or
+git checkout -b fix/bug-description
+git checkout -b docs/documentation-update
+git checkout -b refactor/code-cleanup
+```
 
-## Guidelines
+**Branch naming convention:**
+- `feat/` - New features
+- `fix/` - Bug fixes
+- `docs/` - Documentation changes
+- `refactor/` - Code refactoring
+- `test/` - Test additions/fixes
+- `chore/` - Maintenance tasks
 
-- Ensure your code follows the project's coding standards.
-- Write clear and concise commit messages.
-- Update documentation as needed.
-- Test your changes thoroughly before submitting a pull request.
+### 3. Make Your Changes
 
-Thank you for contributing to RD-Agent!
+Follow the project conventions:
+
+- **Code style**: Use type hints, docstrings (Google style), and 120 char line limit
+- **Language**: All comments and documentation MUST be in English
+- **Structure**: Follow the existing module structure
+
+### 4. Write Tests
+
+**MANDATORY:** All new features MUST have tests with >80% coverage.
+
+```bash
+# Run tests
+pytest test/ -v
+
+# Run with coverage
+pytest --cov=rdagent --cov-report=html
+
+# Run integration tests
+pytest test/integration/ -v
+```
+
+### 5. Run Pre-commit Hooks
+
+Pre-commit hooks run automatically before EVERY commit:
+
+```bash
+# Install pre-commit
+pre-commit install
+
+# Run manually
+pre-commit run --all-files
+```
+
+### 6. Commit Your Changes
+
+Use [Conventional Commits](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/) format:
+
+```bash
+git commit -m "type: description"
+
+# Types:
+# feat:     New feature
+# fix:      Bug fix
+# docs:     Documentation
+# style:    Formatting
+# refactor: Code restructuring
+# test:     Tests
+# chore:    Maintenance
+```
+
+**Examples:**
+```bash
+git commit -m "feat: Add Optuna hyperparameter optimization"
+git commit -m "fix: Resolve database connection timeout"
+git commit -m "docs: Update README with new CLI commands"
+git commit -m "test: Add integration tests for portfolio optimizer"
+```
+
+### 7. Push and Create a Pull Request
+
+```bash
+git push origin your-branch-name
+```
+
+Then open a Pull Request on GitHub with:
+- Clear title (use conventional commit format)
+- Description of changes
+- Link to related issues
+- Screenshots (for UI changes)
+
+## Code Review Process
+
+All PRs are reviewed by maintainers. Expect:
+- Automated checks (tests, linting, security scan)
+- Code review by maintainers
+- Possible requested changes
+
+## Important Rules
+
+### 🚫 NEVER COMMIT
+
+- `.env` files or API keys
+- Generated data (`results/`, `*.db`, `*.log`)
+- Closed-source assets (`models/local/`, `prompts/local/`)
+- JSON strategy files in root directory
+- Private credentials or tokens
+
+### ✅ ALWAYS DO
+
+- Write tests for new features
+- Update documentation for user-visible changes
+- Run `pre-commit run --all-files` before pushing
+- Keep commit messages in English
+- Follow conventional commit format

-    The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all
-    copies or substantial portions of the Software.
+  The GNU Affero General Public License is a free, copyleft license for
+software and other kinds of works, specifically designed to ensure
+cooperation with the community in the case of network server software.
 
-    THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR

-    SOFTWARE
+  The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed
+to take away your freedom to share and change the works.  By contrast,
+our General Public Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to
+share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free
+software for all its users.
+
+  When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
+price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
+have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
+them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
+want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new
+free programs, and that you know you can do these things.
+
+  Developers that use our General Public Licenses protect your rights
+with two steps: (1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer
+you this License which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute
+and/or modify the software.
+
+  A secondary benefit of defending all users' freedom is that
+improvements made in alternate versions of the program, if they
+receive widespread use, become available for other developers to
+incorporate.  Many developers of free software are heartened and
+encouraged by the resulting cooperation.  However, in the case of
+software used on network servers, this result may fail to come about.
+The GNU General Public License permits making a modified version and
+letting the public access it on a server without ever releasing its
+source code to the public.
+
+  The GNU Affero General Public License is designed specifically to
+ensure that, in such cases, the modified source code becomes available
+to the community.  It requires the operator of a network server to
+provide the source code of the modified version running there to the
+users of that server.  Therefore, public use of a modified version, on
+a publicly accessible server, gives the public access to the source
+code of the modified version.
+
+  An older license, called the Affero General Public License and
+published by Affero, was designed to accomplish similar goals.  This is
+a different license, not a version of the Affero GPL, but Affero has
+released a new version of the Affero GPL which permits relicensing under
+this license.
+
+  The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
+modification follow.
+
+                       TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+
+  0. Definitions.
+
+  "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License.
+
+  "Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of
+works, such as semiconductor masks.
+
+  "The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
+License.  Each licensee is addressed as "you".  "Licensees" and
+"recipients" may be individuals or organizations.
+
+  To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work
+in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an
+exact copy.  The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the
+earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work.
+
+  A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based
+on the Program.
+
+  To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
+permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
+infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
+computer or modifying a private copy.  Propagation includes copying,
+distribution (with or without modification), making available to the
+public, and in some countries other activities as well.
+
+  To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other
+parties to make or receive copies.  Mere interaction with a user through
+a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
+
+  An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices"
+to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
+feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
+tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
+extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
+work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License.  If
+the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
+menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
+
+  1. Source Code.
+
+  The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work
+for making modifications to it.  "Object code" means any non-source
+form of a work.
+
+  A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
+standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
+interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
+is widely used among developers working in that language.
+
+  The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other
+than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
+packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
+Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
+Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
+implementation is available to the public in source code form.  A
+"Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component
+(kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
+(if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
+produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
+
+  The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all
+the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
+work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
+control those activities.  However, it does not include the work's
+System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
+programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
+which are not part of the work.  For example, Corresponding Source
+includes interface definition files associated with source files for
+the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
+linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
+such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
+subprograms and other parts of the work.
+
+  The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users
+can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding
+Source.
+
+  The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that
+same work.
+
+  2. Basic Permissions.
+
+  All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
+copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated
+conditions are met.  This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
+permission to run the unmodified Program.  The output from running a
+covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
+content, constitutes a covered work.  This License acknowledges your
+rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
+
+  You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not
+convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains
+in force.  You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose
+of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you
+with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with
+the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do
+not control copyright.  Those thus making or running the covered works
+for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction
+and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of
+your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
+
+  Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under
+the conditions stated below.  Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10
+makes it unnecessary.
+
+  3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
+
+  No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological
+measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
+11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
+similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
+measures.
+
+  When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
+circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention
+is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to
+the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or
+modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's
+users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of
+technological measures.
+
+  4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
+
+  You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you
+receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
+appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;
+keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
+non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
+keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
+recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
+
+  You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,
+and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
+
+  5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
+
+  You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to
+produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
+terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
+
+    a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified
+    it, and giving a relevant date.
+
+    b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is
+    released under this License and any conditions added under section
+    7.  This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to
+    "keep intact all notices".
+
+    c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this
+    License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy.  This
+    License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
+    additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
+    regardless of how they are packaged.  This License gives no
+    permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not
+    invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.
+
+    d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
+    Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
+    interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your
+    work need not make them do so.
+
+  A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent
+works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
+and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,
+in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
+"aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
+used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users
+beyond what the individual works permit.  Inclusion of a covered work
+in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
+parts of the aggregate.
+
+  6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
+
+  You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms
+of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the
+machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License,
+in one of these ways:
+
+    a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
+    (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
+    Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium
+    customarily used for software interchange.
+
+    b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
+    (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a
+    written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as
+    long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product
+    model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a
+    copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
+    product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical
+    medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no
+    more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
+    conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the
+    Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.
+
+    c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
+    written offer to provide the Corresponding Source.  This
+    alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and
+    only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord
+    with subsection 6b.
+
+    d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated
+    place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
+    Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
+    further charge.  You need not require recipients to copy the
+    Corresponding Source along with the object code.  If the place to
+    copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source
+    may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)
+    that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain
+    clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
+    Corresponding Source.  Regardless of what server hosts the
+    Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is
+    available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
+
+    e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided
+    you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding
+    Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no
+    charge under subsection 6d.
+
+  A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded
+from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
+included in conveying the object code work.
+
+  A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any
+tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family,
+or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation
+into a dwelling.  In determining whether a product is a consumer product,
+doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage.  For a particular
+product received by a particular user, "normally used" refers to a
+typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status
+of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user
+actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product.  A product
+is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial
+commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent
+the only significant mode of use of the product.
+
+  "Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,
+procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install
+and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from
+a modified version of its Corresponding Source.  The information must
+suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object
+code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because
+modification has been made.
+
+  If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
+specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
+part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
+User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
+fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
+Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
+by the Installation Information.  But this requirement does not apply
+if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
+modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
+been installed in ROM).
+
+  The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
+requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates
+for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for
+the User Product in which it has been modified or installed.  Access to a
+network may be denied when the modification itself materially and
+adversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and
+protocols for communication across the network.
+
+  Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,
+in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly
+documented (and with an implementation available to the public in
+source code form), and must require no special password or key for
+unpacking, reading or copying.
+
+  7. Additional Terms.
+
+  "Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this
+License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
+Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall
+be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent
+that they are valid under applicable law.  If additional permissions
+apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately
+under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by
+this License without regard to the additional permissions.
+
+  When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option
+remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of
+it.  (Additional permissions may be written to require their own
+removal in certain cases when you modify the work.)  You may place
+additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,
+for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
+
+  Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you
+add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of
+that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
+
+    a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
+    terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
+
+    b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
+    author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
+    Notices displayed by works containing it; or
+
+    c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or
+    requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
+    reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
+
+    d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or
+    authors of the material; or
+
+    e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some
+    trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or
+
+    f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that
+    material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of
+    it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for
+    any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on
+    those licensors and authors.
+
+  All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further
+restrictions" within the meaning of section 10.  If the Program as you
+received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
+governed by this License along with a term that is a further
+restriction, you may remove that term.  If a license document contains
+a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this
+License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms
+of that license document, provided that the further restriction does
+not survive such relicensing or conveying.
+
+  If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
+must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
+additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
+where to find the applicable terms.
+
+  Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
+form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions;
+the above requirements apply either way.
+
+  8. Termination.
+
+  You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
+provided under this License.  Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
+modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
+this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third
+paragraph of section 11).
+
+  However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
+license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
+provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
+finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright
+holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means
+prior to 60 days after the cessation.
+
+  Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
+reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
+violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
+received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
+copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
+your receipt of the notice.
+
+  Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
+licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
+this License.  If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
+reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
+material under section 10.
+
+  9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
+
+  You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or
+run a copy of the Program.  Ancillary propagation of a covered work
+occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
+to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance.  However,
+nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
+modify any covered work.  These actions infringe copyright if you do
+not accept this License.  Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
+covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
+
+  10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
+
+  Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically
+receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
+propagate that work, subject to this License.  You are not responsible
+for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
+
+  An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
+organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
+organization, or merging organizations.  If propagation of a covered
+work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
+transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
+licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
+give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
+Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
+the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
+
+  You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
+rights granted or affirmed under this License.  For example, you may
+not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
+rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
+(including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
+any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
+sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.
+
+  11. Patents.
+
+  A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this
+License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based.  The
+work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version".
+
+  A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims
+owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
+hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
+by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
+but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
+consequence of further modification of the contributor version.  For
+purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant
+patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
+this License.
+
+  Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
+patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to
+make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
+propagate the contents of its contributor version.
+
+  In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express
+agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent
+(such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to
+sue for patent infringement).  To "grant" such a patent license to a
+party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a
+patent against the party.
+
+  If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
+and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
+to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
+publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
+then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
+available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
+patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner
+consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent
+license to downstream recipients.  "Knowingly relying" means you have
+actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the
+covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work
+in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that
+country that you have reason to believe are valid.
+
+  If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
+arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
+covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
+receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
+or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
+you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
+work and works based on it.
+
+  A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within
+the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is
+conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are
+specifically granted under this License.  You may not convey a covered
+work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is
+in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment
+to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying
+the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the
+parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory
+patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work
+conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily
+for and in connection with specific products or compilations that
+contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,
+or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
+
+  Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
+any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
+otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
+
+  12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
+
+  If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
+otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
+excuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot convey a
+covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
+License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
+not convey it at all.  For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you
+to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey
+the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this
+License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.
+
+  13. Remote Network Interaction; Use with the GNU General Public License.
+
+  Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, if you modify the
+Program, your modified version must prominently offer all users
+interacting with it remotely through a computer network (if your version
+supports such interaction) an opportunity to receive the Corresponding
+Source of your version by providing access to the Corresponding Source
+from a network server at no charge, through some standard or customary
+means of facilitating copying of software.  This Corresponding Source
+shall include the Corresponding Source for any work covered by version 3
+of the GNU General Public License that is incorporated pursuant to the
+following paragraph.
+
+  Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have
+permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed
+under version 3 of the GNU General Public License into a single
+combined work, and to convey the resulting work.  The terms of this
+License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,
+but the work with which it is combined will remain governed by version
+3 of the GNU General Public License.
+
+  14. Revised Versions of this License.
+
+  The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of
+the GNU Affero General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions
+will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
+address new problems or concerns.
+
+  Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the
+Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU Affero General
+Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the
+option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered
+version or of any later version published by the Free Software
+Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of the
+GNU Affero General Public License, you may choose any version ever published
+by the Free Software Foundation.
+
+  If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future
+versions of the GNU Affero General Public License can be used, that proxy's
+public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you
+to choose that version for the Program.
+
+  Later license versions may give you additional or different
+permissions.  However, no additional obligations are imposed on any
+author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a
+later version.
+
+  15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
+
+  THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
+APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
+HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY
+OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
+THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
+PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM
+IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF
+ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
+
+  16. Limitation of Liability.
+
+  IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
+WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS
+THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY
+GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE
+USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
+DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD
+PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),
+EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
+SUCH DAMAGES.
+
+  17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
+
+  If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided
+above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,
+reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates
+an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the
+Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a
+copy of the Program in return for a fee.
+
+                     END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+
+            How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
+
+  If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
+possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
+free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
+
+  To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest
+to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
+state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
+the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
+
+    <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
+
+    Copyright (C) {{ year }}  {{ organization }}
+
+    This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify
+    it under the terms of the GNU Affero General Public License as published by
+    the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or
+    (at your option) any later version.
+
+    This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
+    but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
+    MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the
+    GNU Affero General Public License for more details.
+
+    You should have received a copy of the GNU Affero General Public License
+    along with this program.  If not, see <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
+
+Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
+
+  If your software can interact with users remotely through a computer
+network, you should also make sure that it provides a way for users to
+get its source.  For example, if your program is a web application, its
+interface could display a "Source" link that leads users to an archive
+of the code.  There are many ways you could offer source, and different
+solutions will be better for different programs; see section 13 for the
+specific requirements.
+
+  You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school,
+if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary.
+For more information on this, and how to apply and follow the GNU AGPL, see
+<http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.

-# 🏆 The Best Machine Learning Engineering Agent!
-
-[MLE-bench](https://github.com/openai/mle-bench) is a comprehensive benchmark evaluating the performance of AI agents on machine learning engineering tasks. Utilizing datasets from 75 Kaggle competitions, MLE-bench provides robust assessments of AI systems' capabilities in real-world ML engineering scenarios.
-
-R&D-Agent currently leads as the top-performing machine learning engineering agent on MLE-bench:
-
-| Agent | Low == Lite (%) | Medium (%) | High (%) | All (%) |
-|---------|--------|-----------|---------|----------|
-| R&D-Agent o3(R)+GPT-4.1(D) | 51.52 ± 6.9 | 19.3 ± 5.5 | 26.67 ± 0 | 30.22 ± 1.5 |
-| R&D-Agent o1-preview | 48.18 ± 2.49 | 8.95 ± 2.36 | 18.67 ± 2.98 | 22.4 ± 1.1 |
-| AIDE o1-preview | 34.3 ± 2.4 | 8.8 ± 1.1 | 10.0 ± 1.9 | 16.9 ± 1.1 |
-
-**Notes:**
-- **O3(R)+GPT-4.1(D)**: This version is designed to both reduce average time per loop and leverage a cost-effective combination of backend LLMs by seamlessly integrating Research Agent (o3) with Development Agent (GPT-4.1).
-- **AIDE o1-preview**: Represents the previously best public result on MLE-bench as reported in the original MLE-bench paper.
-- Average and standard deviation results for R&D-Agent o1-preview is based on a independent of 5 seeds and for R&D-Agent o3(R)+GPT-4.1(D) is based on 6 seeds.
-- According to MLE-Bench, the 75 competitions are categorized into three levels of complexity: **Low==Lite** if we estimate that an experienced ML engineer can produce a sensible solution in under 2 hours, excluding the time taken to train any models; **Medium** if it takes between 2 and 10 hours; and **High** if it takes more than 10 hours.
-
-You can inspect the detailed runs of the above results online.

-# 🥇 The First Data-Centric Quant Multi-Agent Framework!
-
-R&D-Agent for Quantitative Finance, in short **RD-Agent(Q)**, is the first data-centric, multi-agent framework designed to automate the full-stack research and development of quantitative strategies via coordinated factor-model co-optimization.
-
-![image](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/3198bc10-47ba-4ee0-8a8e-46d5ce44f45d)
-
-Extensive experiments in real stock markets show that, at a cost under $10, RD-Agent(Q) achieves approximately 2× higher ARR than benchmark factor libraries while using over 70% fewer factors. It also surpasses state-of-the-art deep time-series models under smaller resource budgets. Its alternating factor–model optimization further delivers excellent trade-off between predictive accuracy and strategy robustness.
-
-You can learn more details about **RD-Agent(Q)** through the [paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2505.15155) and reproduce it through the [documentation](https://rdagent.readthedocs.io/en/latest/scens/quant_agent_fin.html).

-
-R&D-Agent aims to automate the most critical and valuable aspects of the industrial R&D process, and we begin with focusing on the data-driven scenarios to streamline the development of models and data. 
-Methodologically, we have identified a framework with two key components: 'R' for proposing new ideas and 'D' for implementing them.
-We believe that the automatic evolution of R&D will lead to solutions of significant industrial value.

-
-
-# ⚡ Quick start
-
-### RD-Agent currently only supports Linux.
-
-You can try above demos by running the following command:
-
-### 🐳 Docker installation.
-Users must ensure Docker is installed before attempting most scenarios. Please refer to the [official 🐳Docker page](https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/) for installation instructions.
-Ensure the current user can run Docker commands **without using sudo**. You can verify this by executing `docker run hello-world`.
-
-### 🐍 Create a Conda Environment
-- Create a new conda environment with Python (3.10 and 3.11 are well-tested in our CI):
-  ```sh
-  conda create -n rdagent python=3.10
-  ```
-- Activate the environment:
-  ```sh
-  conda activate rdagent
-  ```
-
-### 🛠️ Install the R&D-Agent
-
-#### For Users
-- You can directly install the R&D-Agent package from PyPI:
-  ```sh
-  pip install rdagent
-  ```
-
-#### For Developers
-- If you want to try the latest version or contribute to RD-Agent, you can install it from the source and follow the development setup:
-  ```sh
-  git clone https://github.com/microsoft/RD-Agent
-  cd RD-Agent
-  make dev
-  ```
-
-More details can be found in the [development setup](https://rdagent.readthedocs.io/en/latest/development.html).
-
-### 💊 Health check
-- rdagent provides a health check that currently checks two things.
-  - whether the docker installation was successful.
-  - whether the default port used by the [rdagent ui](https://github.com/microsoft/RD-Agent?tab=readme-ov-file#%EF%B8%8F-monitor-the-application-results) is occupied.
-  ```sh
-  rdagent health_check --no-check-env
-  ```
-
-
-### ⚙️ Configuration
-- The demos requires following ability:
-  - ChatCompletion
-  - json_mode
-  - embedding query
-
-  You can set your Chat Model and Embedding Model in the following ways:
-
-  > **🔥 Attention**: We now provide experimental support for **DeepSeek** models! You can use DeepSeek's official API for cost-effective and high-performance inference. See the configuration example below for DeepSeek setup.
-
-- **Using LiteLLM (Default)**: We now support LiteLLM as a backend for integration with multiple LLM providers. You can configure in multiple ways:
-
-  **Option 1: Unified API base for both models**
-
-  *Configuration Example: `OpenAI` Setup :*
-
-  ```bash
-  cat << EOF  > .env
-  # Set to any model supported by LiteLLM.
-  CHAT_MODEL=gpt-4o 
-  EMBEDDING_MODEL=text-embedding-3-small
-  # Configure unified API base
-  OPENAI_API_BASE=<your_unified_api_base>
-  OPENAI_API_KEY=<replace_with_your_openai_api_key>
-  ```
-
-  *Configuration Example: `Azure OpenAI` Setup :*
-
-  > Before using this configuration, please confirm in advance that your `Azure OpenAI API key` supports `embedded models`.
-
-  ```bash
-  cat << EOF  > .env
-  EMBEDDING_MODEL=azure/<Model deployment supporting embedding>
-  CHAT_MODEL=azure/<your deployment name>
-  AZURE_API_KEY=<replace_with_your_openai_api_key>
-  AZURE_API_BASE=<your_unified_api_base>
-  AZURE_API_VERSION=<azure api version>
-  ```
-
-  **Option 2: Separate API bases for Chat and Embedding models**
-  ```bash
-  cat << EOF  > .env
-  # Set to any model supported by LiteLLM.
-  # Configure separate API bases for chat and embedding
-  
-  # CHAT MODEL:
-  CHAT_MODEL=gpt-4o 
-  OPENAI_API_BASE=<your_chat_api_base>
-  OPENAI_API_KEY=<replace_with_your_openai_api_key>
-
-  # EMBEDDING MODEL:
-  # TAKE siliconflow as an example, you can use other providers.
-  # Note: embedding requires litellm_proxy prefix
-  EMBEDDING_MODEL=litellm_proxy/BAAI/bge-large-en-v1.5
-  LITELLM_PROXY_API_KEY=<replace_with_your_siliconflow_api_key>
-  LITELLM_PROXY_API_BASE=https://api.siliconflow.cn/v1
-  ```
-
-  *Configuration Example: `DeepSeek` Setup :*
-
-  >Since many users encounter configuration errors when setting up DeepSeek. Here's a complete working example for DeepSeek Setup:
-  ```bash
-  cat << EOF  > .env
-  # CHAT MODEL: Using DeepSeek Official API
-  CHAT_MODEL=deepseek/deepseek-chat 
-  DEEPSEEK_API_KEY=<replace_with_your_deepseek_api_key>
-
-  # EMBEDDING MODEL: Using SiliconFlow for embedding since deepseek has no embedding model.
-  # Note: embedding requires litellm_proxy prefix
-  EMBEDDING_MODEL=litellm_proxy/BAAI/bge-m3
-  LITELLM_PROXY_API_KEY=<replace_with_your_siliconflow_api_key>
-  LITELLM_PROXY_API_BASE=https://api.siliconflow.cn/v1
-  ```
-
-  Notice: If you are using reasoning models that include thought processes in their responses (such as \<think> tags), you need to set the following environment variable:
-  ```bash
-  REASONING_THINK_RM=True
-  ```
-
-  You can also use a deprecated backend if you only use `OpenAI API` or `Azure OpenAI` directly. For this deprecated setting and more configuration information, please refer to the [documentation](https://rdagent.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation_and_configuration.html). 
-
-
-
-- If your environment configuration is complete, please execute the following commands to check if your configuration is valid. This step is necessary.
-
-  ```bash
-  rdagent health_check
-  ```
-

+
+## Overview
+
+**NexQuant** discovers profitable trading strategies through high-speed search — no LLM required. Core engine: Numba JIT-compiled backtest at **735 million bars/second** (245× faster than pandas). Four discovery methods run in a continuous loop:
+
+| Method | Frequency | Description |
+|--------|-----------|-------------|
+| **Explore** | 30% of iterations | Random strategies from 17 TA-Lib indicators across timeframes |
+| **Exploit** | 70% of iterations | Mutate the best-known strategy (change params, indicator, or timeframe) |
+| **Optuna** | Every 500 iterations | 20-trial hyperparameter optimization on the current best |
+| **LightGBM** | Every 2000 iterations | ML classifier trained on SOTA indicator signals to predict direction |
+
+**Current best strategy**: MACD(3,10,3) 4-TF with 2/4 vote majority — **+32.0%/month** (Numba), **+24.3%/month** (verified independent backtest), 0/75 negative months.
+
+> **This repository contains the research framework.** Trading strategies, broker integrations, and live trading infrastructure are available as separate closed-source modules (`git_ignore_folder/`).
+
+---
+
+## Quick Start
+
+```bash
+# Prerequisites
+conda create -n nexquant python=3.10 -y && conda activate nexquant
+pip install -e .
+# Ensure OHLCV data exists: git_ignore_folder/intraday_pv_all.h5
+
+# Strategy Discovery Loop (10,000 iterations, ~1 hour)
+python scripts/nexquant_rd_loop.py --iterations 10000
+
+# Price-Action Indicator Loop (grid search all TA-Lib indicators)
+python scripts/nexquant_priceaction_loop.py
+
+# Top strategies report
+python nexquant.py best -n 20 -m monthly_return --min-trades 30
 ```
 
-About the `data_science` parameter: If you want to see the logs of the data science scenario, set the `data_science` parameter to `True`; otherwise set it to `False`.
+---
 
-#### Web UI
+## Strategy Discovery
 
-We also provide a separate web frontend in `web/` for the Flask backend started by `server_ui`.
+### R&D Loop (`scripts/nexquant_rd_loop.py`)
 
-**NOTE:** This web UI is different from `rdagent ui`. The current web UI does not support the `data_science` scenario yet. For the `data_science` scenario, please continue to use `rdagent ui --data-science`.
-
-```sh
-cd web
-npm install
+```
+ ┌──────────┐     ┌──────────┐     ┌──────────┐     ┌──────────┐
+ │ Explore  │ ──→ │ Exploit  │ ──→ │ Optuna   │ ──→ │ LightGBM │
+ │ (Random) │     │ (Mutate) │     │ (Tuning) │     │   (ML)   │
+ └──────────┘     └──────────┘     └──────────┘     └──────────┘
+       30%              70%           /500 iter        /2000 iter
 ```
 
-To build the frontend for the Flask backend, generate the static assets into the default directory used by `server_ui`:
+**17 TA-Lib indicators**: MACD, RSI, Donchian, SAR, ADX, BBANDS, CCI, WCLPRICE, MFI, OBV, STOCH, ROC, AROON, AROONOSC, MOM, ULTOSC, WILLR
 
-```sh
-cd web
-npm run build:flask
+**4 timeframes**: 15min, 30min, 1h, 4h
+
+**3 strategy types**: Single-TF, Multi-TF (vote majority), Portfolio (indicator ensemble)
+
+**Discovery example** (50,000 iterations):
+```
+random → SAR(+65) → MACD(+73) → MACD-mutated(+102.75, +32%/month)
+                                        ↓
+                                  Optuna tuned params
+                                        ↓
+                                  LightGBM ensemble
 ```
 
-By default, `server_ui` serves static files from `./git_ignore_folder/static`. If you need a different location, set the `UI_STATIC_PATH` environment variable before starting the backend.
+### Grid Search (`scripts/nexquant_priceaction_loop.py`)
 
-Start the Flask backend and serve the built frontend together with the real-time APIs:
+Deterministic parameter grid over all 17 indicators. Finds MACD(3,10,3) as optimal.
 
-```sh
-rdagent server_ui --port 19899
+### Portfolio Optimizer (`scripts/nexquant_portfolio_optimizer.py`)
+
+Greedy correlation-aware selection from discovered strategies.
+
+---
+
+## Live Trading
+
+Closed-source module at `git_ignore_folder/nexquant_live_trader.py`. Architecture:
+
+```
+MACD(3,10,3) Signal → cTrader OpenAPI → Live Account
+ 4-TF 2/4 Votes      (WebSocket+Protobuf)        ↓
+                                             Paper Mode
 ```
 
-After that, open `http://127.0.0.1:19899` in your browser.
+Integration: cTrader WebSocket `live.ctraderapi.com:5035`, OAuth2 authentication, Protobuf message encoding, FIX protocol.
 
-#### Common Notes
+---
 
-Port `19899` is used in the examples above. Before starting either UI, check whether this port is already occupied. If it is, please change it to another available port.
+## Features
 
-You can check whether the port is occupied by running:
+### ⚡ Numba Backtest
+- 735M bars/second (0.003s for 2.26M bars)
+- JIT-compiled profit/drawdown/sharpe computation
+- Signal construction via pandas resample + TA-Lib (~0.4s) is the bottleneck
 
-```sh
-rdagent health_check --no-check-env --no-check-docker
+### 🔍 Four Discovery Methods

-# 🏭 Scenarios
+> **Note on `rdagent/`**: The LLM-based R&D framework (`rdagent fin_quant`) is part of the codebase but the Qlib/CoSTEER pipeline currently produces zero factors. The primary strategy discovery path is the Numba-based loop in `scripts/`.
 
-We have applied R&D-Agent to multiple valuable data-driven industrial scenarios.
+---
 
+## Installation
 
-## 🎯 Goal: Agent for Data-driven R&D
+### Prerequisites
+- **Conda** (Miniconda or Anaconda)
+- **TA-Lib** system library (`apt install ta-lib` or `brew install ta-lib`)
+- **Linux** (Ubuntu 22.04+)
 
-In this project, we are aiming to build an Agent to automate Data-Driven R\&D that can
-+ 📄 Read real-world material (reports, papers, etc.) and **extract** key formulas, descriptions of interested **features** and **models**, which are the key components of data-driven R&D .
-+ 🛠️ **Implement** the extracted formulas (e.g., features, factors, and models) in runnable codes.
-   + Due to the limited ability of LLM in implementing at once, build an evolving process for the agent to improve performance by learning from feedback and knowledge.
-+ 💡 Propose **new ideas** based on current knowledge and observations.
+### Install

-## 📈 Scenarios/Demos
-
-In the two key areas of data-driven scenarios, model implementation and data building, our system aims to serve two main roles: 🦾Copilot and 🤖Agent. 
-- The 🦾Copilot follows human instructions to automate repetitive tasks. 
-- The 🤖Agent, being more autonomous, actively proposes ideas for better results in the future.
-
-The supported scenarios are listed below:

-
-Automating the R&D process in data science is a highly valuable yet underexplored area in industry. We propose a framework to push the boundaries of this important research field.
-
-The research questions within this framework can be divided into three main categories:
-| Research Area | Paper/Work List |
-|--------------------|-----------------|
-| **Benchmark the R&D abilities** | [Benchmark](#benchmark) |
-| **Idea proposal:** Explore new ideas or refine existing ones | [Research](#research) |
-| **Ability to realize ideas:** Implement and execute ideas | [Development](#development) |
-
-We believe that the key to delivering high-quality solutions lies in the ability to evolve R&D capabilities. Agents should learn like human experts, continuously improving their R&D skills.

-## 🔍 Research
+---
 
-In a data mining expert's daily research and development process, they propose a hypothesis (e.g., a model structure like RNN can capture patterns in time-series data), design experiments (e.g., finance data contains time-series and we can verify the hypothesis in this scenario), implement the experiment as code (e.g., Pytorch model structure), and then execute the code to get feedback (e.g., metrics, loss curve, etc.). The experts learn from the feedback and improve in the next iteration.
+## License
 
-Based on the principles above, we have established a basic method framework that continuously proposes hypotheses, verifies them, and gets feedback from the real-world practice. This is the first scientific research automation framework that supports linking with real-world verification.
+**GNU Affero General Public License v3.0 (AGPL-3.0)**. See [`LICENSE`](LICENSE).

+# NexQuant v2.0.0 Release Notes
+
+**Release Date:** 2026-04-10
+
+**Tag:** v2.0.0
+
+---
+
+## 🎉 Overview
+
+Major update adding AI-powered strategy generation, realistic backtesting, and comprehensive CLI tooling. NexQuant now autonomously generates, evaluates, and optimizes trading strategies using local LLMs.
+
+---
+
+## ✨ Added
+
+### LLM-Powered Strategy Generation
+- **StrategyOrchestrator**: Generate trading strategies by combining factors with LLM
+- **Local llama.cpp Support**: Run strategy generation locally (Qwen3.5-35B)
+- **OpenRouter Support**: Optional cloud model fallback
+- **Improved Prompts (v3)**: IC-sign-aware factor combination instructions
+- **Diverse Factor Selection**: Automatic selection by type (momentum, divergence, volatility, session)
+
+### Realistic Backtesting
+- **OHLCV-Based Returns**: Real price returns instead of factor proxies
+- **Spread Costs**: 1.5 bps per trade deducted from returns
+- **Forward-Fill Support**: Daily factors → 1-min frequency
+- **Proper Annualization**: sqrt(252*1440) for 1-min data
+
+### CLI Commands
+- `rdagent nexquant` - Show beautiful welcome screen (perfect for screenshots!)
+- `rdagent start_llama` - Start llama.cpp server
+- `rdagent start_loop` - Start strategy generator loop with auto-restart
+- `rdagent generate_strategies` - Generate strategies from factors
+- `rdagent optimize_portfolio` - Portfolio optimization
+- `rdagent eval_all` - Evaluate factors with full data
+- `rdagent batch_backtest` - Batch backtest existing factors
+- `rdagent report` - Generate PDF performance reports
+- `rdagent rebacktest` - Re-backtest existing strategies
+
+### Code Quality
+- **282+ Integration Tests**: All features tested
+- **Security Hardening**: All Dependabot/CodeQL alerts resolved
+- **Pre-commit Hooks**: Automated tests + security scanning
+
+---
+
+## 🔧 Changed

+# 🎯 PREDIX: Vollständige Integration in fin_quant Loop
+
+## ✅ Implementierte Features
+
+### 1. Realistisches Backtesting
+- **Echte OHLCV-Daten** aus `intraday_pv.h5` (2.26M Bars, 2020-2026)
+- **Forward-Fill** täglicher Faktoren auf 1-Min-Frequenz
+- **Spread-Kosten**: 1.5 bps pro Trade
+- **Korrekte Annualisierung**: sqrt(252*1440) für 1-Min-Daten
+
+### 2. Verbesserter LLM-Prompt
+- **IC-geführte Faktorwahl**: |IC| > 0.10 PRIORITIZE, |IC| > 0.05 USE
+- **IC-gewichtete Kombinationen**: Höhere IC = höheres Gewicht
+- **Bessere Beispiele** mit IC-Gewichten im Prompt
+- **Verfügbarkeit von 'close' Series** für zusätzliche Berechnungen
+
+### 3. Optuna-Optimierung
+- **20 Trials pro Strategie** (konfigurierbar)
+- **TPESampler** mit MedianPruner
+- **Optimiert**: entry_threshold, rolling_window, SL, TP, Trailing Stop
+- **Auto-Update** wenn Optuna Sharpe verbessert
+
+### 4. Automatische Strategiegenerierung
+- **Trigger**: Alle 500 Faktoren (konfigurierbar)
+- **3 Strategien pro Zyklus** mit zufälligen Faktor-Kombinationen
+- **Graceful Degradation**: Bricht Hauptloop nicht bei Fehlern
+
+## 🚀 Benutzung
+
+### Automatisch (im fin_quant Loop)
+```bash
+# Standard: Alle 500 Faktoren
+rdagent fin_quant --auto-strategies
+
+# Custom threshold
+rdagent fin_quant --auto-strategies --auto-strategies-threshold 1000
+
+# Mit OpenRouter
+rdagent fin_quant -m openrouter --auto-strategies
+```
+
+### Manuell
+```bash
+# 5 Strategien mit Optuna
+rdagent generate_strategies --count 5 --optuna --optuna-trials 20
+
+# Ohne Optuna (schneller)
+rdagent generate_strategies --count 5 --no-optuna
+```
+
+## 📊 Testergebnisse
+
+### MomentumDivergenceZScore (vorher vs. nachher)
+
+| Metrik | Vorher | Nachher |
+|--------|--------|---------|
+| **Datenpunkte** | 259 (4.3h) | 823,450 (2.27 Jahre) |
+| **Sharpe** | 3.59 | 6.04 |
+| **Max DD** | -0.22% | -1.57% |
+| **Win Rate** | 49.46% | 49.19% |

+
+## 📝 Nächste Schritte
+
+1. **Live Trading**: Bestehende Strategien für Paper Trading nutzen
+2. **Mehr Faktoren**: Weiterhin Faktoren generieren für bessere Strategien
+3. **Dashboard**: Live-Statistiken im Web/CLI Dashboard anzeigen
+
+## ⚠️ Wichtige Hinweise
+
+- **Forward-Fill** kann zu Daten-Leakage führen (tägliche Werte werden auf Minuten aufgefüllt)
+- **Optuna** benötigt 20-30 Sekunden pro Strategie
+- **Auto-Strategies** nur wenn ≥10 Faktoren verfügbar
+- **LLM** muss verfügbar sein (local oder openrouter)

+## Überblick
+
+Der **StrategyBuilder** kombiniert existierende Faktoren systematisch zu handelbaren Strategien. 
+Im Gegensatz zum ML-Trainer (der ein einzelnes Modell auf Top-Faktoren trainiert) testet der

+## 7. Nächste Schritte
+
+1. **Implementierung Phase 1:** StrategyCombinator + einfache Pair-Tests
+2. **Implementierung Phase 2:** StrategyEvaluator mit Walk-Forward
+3. **Implementierung Phase 3:** StrategySelector + Saver
+4. **Integration:** CLI-Befehl `rdagent build_strategies`
+5. **Validierung:** Top-Strategien gegen Hold-out Periode testen
+6. **Dashboard:** Web-UI zur Strategie-Anzeige (erweitert)
+
+---
+
+## 8. Offene Fragen
+
+- **Factor Values:** Woher kommen die Zeitreihen-Werte für jeden Faktor?
+  - Aktuell: Nur in workspace/result.h5 gespeichert (nicht persistent)
+  - Lösung: Beim Speichern in DB auch als Parquet in results/factors/values/ ablegen
+
+- **Performance:** 100 Faktoren → ~5000 Pairs → 8 Walks each = 40.000 Backtests
+  - Lösung: Parallelisierung (multiprocessing), Top-1000 Paare vorher filtern
+
+- **Regime Detection:** Wie erkennen wir Markt-Regimes?
+  - Vorschlag: Volatility-based (high/low vol), Trend-based (uptrend/downtrend)
+  - Später: ML-basiert (HMM, Clustering)

+# NexQuant Parallel Run System
+
+## Overview
+
+The Parallel Run System enables concurrent execution of 5+ factor generation experiments with automatic API key distribution and complete isolation between runs.
+
+## Architecture
+
+### Components
+
+| File | Purpose |
+|------|---------|
+| `nexquant.py` | Extended with `--run-id` parameter for isolated single runs |
+| `nexquant_parallel.py` | Parallel runner manager with Rich live dashboard |
+| `factor_runner.py` | Modified to use `PARALLEL_RUN_ID` for path isolation |
+| `CoSTEER/__init__.py` | Modified to use `PARALLEL_RUN_ID` for intermediate results |
+
+### Directory Structure (Per Run)
+
+```
+results/
+├── db/                          # Shared database

+
+### Log Files
+
+```
+fin_quant.log                    # Single run (run_id=0)
+fin_quant_run1.log               # Parallel run #1
+fin_quant_run2.log               # Parallel run #2
+...
+```

+### Workspaces
+
+```
+RD-Agent_workspace/              # Single run (run_id=0)
+RD-Agent_workspace_run1/         # Parallel run #1
+RD-Agent_workspace_run2/         # Parallel run #2
+...
+```
+
+## Usage
+
+### CLI - Single Parallel Run
+
+```bash
+# Run with isolated results
+nexquant quant --run-id 1 -m openrouter
+```
+
+### CLI - Parallel Runner (Direct)
+
+```bash
+# Run 5 experiments with 2 API keys
+python nexquant_parallel.py --runs 5 --api-keys 2
+
+# Run 3 experiments with local model
+python nexquant_parallel.py --runs 3 --model local
+
+# Custom configuration
+python nexquant_parallel.py -n 10 -k 2 -m openrouter
+```
+
+### Programmatic Usage
+
+```python
+from nexquant_parallel import main
+
+result = main(runs=5, api_keys=2, model="openrouter")
+print(f"Success: {result['success']}/{result['total']}")
+```
+
+## API Key Distribution
+
+The system distributes API keys using round-robin assignment:
+
+| Run ID | API Key | Model |
+|--------|---------|-------|
+| 1 | Key 1 | openrouter |
+| 2 | Key 2 | openrouter |
+| 3 | Key 1 | openrouter |
+| 4 | Key 2 | openrouter |
+| 5 | Key 1 | openrouter |
+
+**With 2 API keys:**
+- Runs 1, 3, 5 → Key 1
+- Runs 2, 4 → Key 2
+
+**LiteLLM Load Balancing:**
+When 2 API keys are available, the system configures LiteLLM for parallel request handling:
+```
+OPENAI_API_KEY=key1,key2
+LITELLM_PARALLEL_CALLS=2
+```
+
+## Isolation Guarantees
+
+Each parallel run is completely isolated:
+
+### Environment Variables
+- `PARALLEL_RUN_ID=N` - Identifies the run
+- `RD_AGENT_WORKSPACE` - Points to run-specific workspace
+- `OPENAI_API_KEY` - Assigned API key for this run
+
+### No Shared State
+- ✅ Separate log files
+- ✅ Separate result directories
+- ✅ Separate workspace directories
+- ✅ Separate database files (optional)
+- ✅ No race conditions (no shared mutable state)
+
+### Graceful Degradation
+- If a run fails, others continue unaffected
+- Each run is independently restartable
+- Results are persisted immediately after completion
+
+## Live Dashboard
+
+The parallel runner shows a Rich-based live dashboard:
+
+```
+┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
+│  🔀 NexQuant Parallel Run Dashboard                       │
+├──────┬──────────┬──────────┬─────────┬──────────┬───────┤
+│ Run  │ Status   │ Elapsed  │ API Key │ Model    │ Exit  │

+│ #5   │ ❌ failed │ 00:05:23│ 1       │openrouter│ 1     │
+├──────┴──────────┴──────────┴─────────┴──────────┴───────┤
+│  Summary: 5 total | 1 done | 2 running | 1 pending | 1 failed │
+└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
+```
+
+## Signal Handling
+
+- **First Ctrl+C:** Gracefully stops all running subprocesses
+- **Second Ctrl+C:** Force kills all remaining processes
+- Dashboard updates in real-time during shutdown
+
+## Configuration
+
+### Environment Variables (`.env`)
+
+```bash
+# Required for openrouter mode
+OPENROUTER_API_KEY=sk-or-your-first-key
+OPENROUTER_API_KEY_2=sk-or-your-second-key  # Optional
+
+# Required for local mode
+OPENAI_API_KEY=local
+OPENAI_API_BASE=http://localhost:8081/v1
+CHAT_MODEL=qwen3.5-35b
+
+# Optional: Custom model
+OPENROUTER_MODEL=openrouter/qwen/qwen3.6-plus:free
+```
+
+## Performance
+
+**Expected Speedup:**
+- 5 runs with 2 API keys ≈ 2.5× faster than sequential
+- 5 runs with local model ≈ 5× faster than sequential (no API rate limits)
+
+**Overhead:**
+- ~1 second per run for subprocess startup
+- Dashboard refresh: 2 Hz (negligible CPU)
+
+## Error Handling
+
+| Scenario | Behavior |
+|----------|----------|
+| Run fails | Logged, others continue |
+| API key exhausted | Retry with next key |
+| Ctrl+C pressed | Graceful shutdown of all runs |
+| Disk full | Error logged, run marked failed |
+| LLM timeout | Run fails, others unaffected |
+
+## Integration with Existing Code
+
+### factor_runner.py Changes
+
+```python
+# Before (shared paths)
+log_dir = project_root / "results" / "logs"
+factors_dir = project_root / "results" / "factors"
+
+# After (parallel-aware)
+parallel_run_id = os.getenv("PARALLEL_RUN_ID", "0")
+if parallel_run_id != "0":
+    log_dir = project_root / "results" / "runs" / f"run{parallel_run_id}" / "logs"
+    factors_dir = project_root / "results" / "runs" / f"run{parallel_run_id}" / "factors"
+```
+
+### CoSTEER/__init__.py Changes
+
+```python
+# Intermediate results isolation
+parallel_run_id = os.getenv("PARALLEL_RUN_ID", "0")
+if parallel_run_id != "0":
+    results_dir = project_root / "results" / "runs" / f"run{parallel_run_id}" / "costeer"
+```
+
+## Testing
+
+```bash
+# Run all integration tests
+pytest test/integration/test_all_features.py -v
+
+# Test parallel runner imports
+python -c "from nexquant_parallel import ParallelRunner, main; print('✅ OK')"
+
+# Test CLI options
+nexquant quant --help  # Should show --run-id option
+```
+
+## Future Enhancements
+
+- [ ] Auto-detect optimal number of parallel runs based on API rate limits
+- [ ] Result aggregation and comparison across runs
+- [ ] Dynamic API key rebalancing (assign more runs to faster key)
+- [ ] Support for >2 API keys
+- [ ] Run prioritization (run high-priority experiments first)
+- [ ] Slack/email notifications on completion

+## Bandit Security Scanner
+
+### Konfiguration
+
+Bandit ist als Pre-Commit Hook konfiguriert und scannt automatisch alle Python-Dateien vor jedem Commit.
+
+**Konfigurationsdateien:**
+- `.bandit.yml` - Bandit-Einstellungen
+- `.pre-commit-config.yaml` - Pre-commit Hooks
+- `requirements/lint.txt` - Bandit Dependency
+
+### Scan-Befehle
+
+```bash
+# Alle Dateien scannen
+bandit -r rdagent/ -c .bandit.yml
+
+# Nur HIGH Severity Issues
+bandit -r rdagent/ -c .bandit.yml --severity-level high
+
+# Spezifische Datei scannen
+bandit rdagent/components/backtesting/results_db.py -c .bandit.yml
+
+# Mit JSON Output (für CI/CD)
+bandit -r rdagent/ -c .bandit.yml -f json -o results/security/bandit-report.json
+```
+
+### Gefundene HIGH Severity Issues
+
+#### 1. subprocess mit shell=True (12 Issues)
+
+**Dateien:**
+- `rdagent/utils/env.py` (mehrere Stellen)
+- `rdagent/components/coder/factor_coder/factor.py`
+
+**Bewertung:** ✅ **Akzeptiert** - Internal Tool
+- Alle Commands verwenden hardcodierte Strings, keine User-Inputs
+- Risk: Command Injection bei manipulierten Inputs
+- Mitigation: Code-Review für alle subprocess-Aufrufe, keine externen Inputs
+
+**Empfohlene Fixes (Future PR):**
+```python
+# Statt:
+subprocess.run(f"conda env list | grep -q '^{env_name} '", shell=True)
+
+# Besser:
+subprocess.run(["conda", "env", "list"], capture_output=True, text=True, check=True)
+# Dann in Python auf env_name prüfen
+```
+
+**Priority:** MEDIUM - Refactor in nächster Wartungsphase
+
+---
+
+#### 2. Jinja2 autoescape=False (6 Issues)
+
+**Dateien:**
+- `rdagent/components/coder/data_science/ensemble/__init__.py`
+- `rdagent/components/coder/data_science/ensemble/eval.py`
+- `rdagent/scenarios/kaggle/developer/coder.py` (2x)
+- `rdagent/scenarios/qlib/experiment/utils.py`
+- `rdagent/utils/agent/tpl.py`
+
+**Bewertung:** ✅ **Akzeptiert** - Template Generation für Code
+- Templates generieren Python-Code, nicht HTML
+- XSS-Risiko besteht nicht bei Code-Templates
+- `StrictUndefined` verhindert undefined variable leaks
+
+**Mitigation:** ✅ Already secure durch `StrictUndefined`
+
+---
+
+#### 3. MD5 Hash (2 Issues)
+
+**Dateien:**
+- `rdagent/log/ui/ds_trace.py` (2x)
+
+**Bewertung:** ✅ **Akzeptiert** - Non-Crypto Use Case
+- MD5 wird für UI-Caching verwendet, nicht für Security
+- `usedforsecurity=False` kann hinzugefügt werden
+
+**Empfohlener Fix (Quick Win):**
+```python
+# Zeile 226 & 333 in rdagent/log/ui/ds_trace.py
+unique_key = hashlib.md5("...".encode(), usedforsecurity=False).hexdigest()
+```
+
+**Priority:** LOW - 5 Minuten Fix
+
+---
+
+#### 4. tarfile.extractall ohne Validation (2 Issues)
+
+**Dateien:**
+- `rdagent/scenarios/data_science/proposal/exp_gen/select/submit.py`
+- `rdagent/scenarios/kaggle/kaggle_crawler.py`
+
+**Bewertung:** ⚠️ **Sollte gefixt werden** - Path Traversal Risk
+- Extrahiert externe Archive (Kaggle Datasets)
+- Risk: Path Traversal Attacks via `../../../etc/passwd`
+
+**Empfohlener Fix:**
+```python
+import tarfile
+import os
+
+def safe_extractall(tar: tarfile.TarFile, path: str) -> None:
+    """Extract tarfile safely, preventing path traversal."""
+    def is_within_directory(directory: str, target: str) -> bool:
+        abs_directory = os.path.abspath(directory)
+        abs_target = os.path.abspath(target)
+        prefix = os.path.commonprefix([abs_directory, abs_target])
+        return prefix == abs_directory
+
+    for member in tar.getmembers():
+        member_path = os.path.join(path, member.name)
+        if not is_within_directory(path, member_path):
+            raise ValueError(f"Attempted Path Traversal: {member.name}")
+    tar.extractall(path=path)
+
+# Usage:
+with tarfile.open(tar_path, mode="r:*") as tar:
+    safe_extractall(tar, to_dir)
+```
+
+**Priority:** HIGH - Nächster Sprint
+
+---
+
+#### 5. Flask debug=True (1 Issue)
+
+**Datei:**
+- `rdagent/log/server/debug_app.py:170`
+
+**Bewertung:** ⚠️ **Sollte gefixt werden** - Debugger Exposure
+- `debug=True` ermöglicht arbitrary code execution
+- Sollte nur in Development-Umgebung sein
+
+**Empfohlener Fix:**
+```python
+import os
+
+# Zeile 170
+debug_mode = os.getenv("FLASK_ENV") == "development"
+app.run(debug=debug_mode, host="0.0.0.0", port=port)
+```
+
+**Priority:** HIGH - Quick Fix

+
+### Voraussetzungen
+
+```bash
+# Installation
+pip install -e ".[all]"
+
+# Daten herunterladen (falls noch nicht geschehen)
+rdagent download-data
+```
+
+### Beispiel ausführen
+
+```bash
+# Faktor-Generierung (3 Loops)
+python examples/01_factor_discovery.py --loop-n 3
+
+# Backtest durchführen
+python examples/04_backtest_simple.py --strategy momentum
+```
+
+## 📖 Detaillierte Anleitungen
+
+### Beispiel 01: Factor Discovery
+
+**Ziel:** Automatisch neue Trading-Faktoren mit LLM generieren lassen
+
+```bash
+python examples/01_factor_discovery.py --loop-n 5 --llm local
+```
+
+**Output:**
+- Generierte Faktoren in `RD-Agent_workspace/`
+- Performance-Metriken (ARR, Sharpe, IC)
+- Faktor-Implementierungen als Python-Code
+
+**Nächste Schritte:**
+→ Siehe `02_factor_evolution.py` um Faktoren zu optimieren
+
+### Beispiel 02: Factor Evolution
+
+**Ziel:** Bestehende Faktoren mit Session/Regime Filters verbessern
+
+```bash
+python examples/02_factor_evolution.py --factor momentum_16 --improve session_filter
+```
+
+**Output:**
+- Verbesserte Faktoren mit Before/After-Vergleich
+- Metrik-Verbesserungen (ARR +X%, Sharpe +X.X)
+
+### Beispiel 03: Strategy Generation
+
+**Ziel:** Mehrere Faktoren zu einer robusten Strategie kombinieren
+
+```bash
+python examples/03_strategy_generation.py --factors momentum_16,reversal,session_alpha
+```
+
+**Output:**
+- IC-weighted Faktor-Kombination
+- Signal-Verteilung (Long/Short/Neutral)
+
+### Beispiel 04: Backtest
+
+**Ziel:** Backtest einer Trading-Strategie auf historischen Daten
+
+```bash
+python examples/04_backtest_simple.py --strategy momentum --start 2020-01-01 --end 2025-12-31
+```
+
+**Output:**
+- Key-Metriken: ARR, Sharpe, MaxDD, WinRate
+- Equity Curve (optional als Plot)
+
+### Beispiel 05: Model Training
+
+**Ziel:** ML-Modell (LSTM/XGBoost) auf Faktor-Daten trainieren
+
+```bash
+python examples/05_model_training.py --model lstm --features momentum_16,reversal
+```
+
+**Output:**
+- Trainiertes Modell in `models/`
+- Train/Val/Test Split Ergebnisse
+- Feature Importance (bei XGBoost)
+
+### Beispiel 06: RL Trading Agent
+
+**Ziel:** Reinforcement Learning Agent für Trading trainieren
+
+```bash
+python examples/06_rl_trading_agent.py --algo ppo --episodes 1000
+```
+
+**Output:**
+- Trainierter RL-Agent in `models/rl_agent/`
+- Learning Curve
+- Trading-Statistiken

+
+## 🎯 How It Works
+
+**Model Loading Priority:**
+
+1. **`models/local/*.py`** ← Your improved models (loaded first!)
+2. **`models/standard/*.py`** ← Default models (fallback)
+
+**Example:**
+```python
+from rdagent.components.model_loader import load_model
+
+# Load XGBoost model
+# If models/local/xgboost_factor*.py exists → loads that
+# Otherwise → loads from models/standard/
+model_factory = load_model("xgboost_factor")
+
+# Create model instance
+model = model_factory(max_depth=8, learning_rate=0.1)
+
+# Train
+model.fit(X_train, y_train)
+
+# Predict
+predictions = model.predict(X_test)
+```
+
+---
+
+## 📝 Available Standard Models
+
+| Model | File | Use Case |
+|-------|------|----------|
+| **XGBoost** | `xgboost_factor.py` | Tabular factors, fast training |
+| **LightGBM** | `lightgbm_factor.py` | Large datasets, faster than XGBoost |
+| **RandomForest** | `randomforest_factor.py` | Baseline, robust |
+
+---
+
+## 🚀 Creating Your Improved Models
+
+### Step 1: Create Local Model File
+
+```bash
+# Create local directory (if not exists)
+mkdir -p models/local
+
+# Copy standard model as template
+cp models/standard/xgboost_factor.py models/local/optimized_xgboost.py
+```
+
+### Step 2: Improve Your Model
+
+```python
+# models/local/optimized_xgboost.py
+
+class XGBoostFactorModel:
+    """Your optimized version with better hyperparameters."""
+    
+    def __init__(self, **params):
+        self.params = {
+            'objective': 'reg:squarederror',
+            'max_depth': 8,  # Deeper trees
+            'learning_rate': 0.03,  # Slower learning
+            'n_estimators': 1000,  # More estimators
+            'subsample': 0.9,  # Less dropout
+            'colsample_bytree': 0.9,
+            'random_state': 42,
+            # Your custom params
+            'gamma': 0.1,  # Regularization
+            'min_child_weight': 3,
+            **params
+        }
+        # ... rest of implementation
+```
+
+### Step 3: Use in Trading
+
+Your improved models are automatically used when running:
+
+```python
+from rdagent.components.model_loader import load_model
+
+# Auto-loads your optimized version!
+model_factory = load_model("xgboost_factor")
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🔐 Security
+
+**What to keep in `models/local/`:**
+
+✅ Your proprietary model architectures
+✅ Optimized hyperparameters
+✅ Custom feature engineering
+✅ Ensemble methods
+✅ Trade secrets & alpha-generating logic
+
+**What NOT to commit to Git:**
+
+❌ Anything in `models/local/` (already in .gitignore)
+❌ Files with `.local.py` suffix
+❌ Files with `_private.py` suffix
+
+---
+
+## 📊 Best Practices
+
+### 1. Version Your Models
+
+```python
+# Good naming:
+models/local/
+├── xgboost_v2.py          # Version 2
+├── xgboost_v3_optimized.py  # Version 3 optimized
+└── lightgbm_lstm_hybrid_v1.py  # Hybrid v1
+```
+
+### 2. Document Changes
+
+```python
+# models/local/optimized_xgboost_v2.py
+"""
+XGBoost Factor Model v2.0
+
+Changes from v1:
+- Increased max_depth from 6 to 8
+- Added gamma regularization
+- Increased n_estimators from 500 to 1000
+- Target: +2% ARR, +0.2 Sharpe
+
+Author: Your Name
+Date: 2026-04-02
+"""
+```
+
+### 3. Test Performance
+
+```python
+# Compare model versions
+from rdagent.components.model_loader import load_model
+
+# Load standard
+std_model = load_model("xgboost_factor", local_only=False)
+
+# Load local (if exists)
+local_model = load_model("xgboost_factor", local_only=True)
+
+# Backtest both and compare
+# ...
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🔧 Advanced Usage
+
+### Load All Models
+
+```python
+from rdagent.components.model_loader import list_available_models
+
+all_models = list_available_models()
+print(f"Standard: {all_models['standard']}")
+print(f"Local: {all_models['local']}")
+```
+
+### Force Local Model
+
+```python
+# Raise error if local model not found
+model = load_model("transformer_factor", local_only=True)
+```
+
+### Custom Model Path
+
+```python
+from rdagent.components.model_loader import load_module_from_path
+from pathlib import Path
+
+# Load from custom location
+module = load_module_from_path(
+    Path("/path/to/my/custom_model.py"),
+    "custom_model"
+)
+```
+
+---
+
+## 📈 Model Selection Guide
+
+| Scenario | Recommended Model | Why |
+|----------|------------------|-----|
+| **Tabular Factors** | XGBoost / LightGBM | Fast, interpretable |
+| **Large Dataset** | LightGBM | Lower memory, faster |
+| **Baseline** | RandomForest | Robust, no tuning needed |
+| **Time-Series Patterns** | LSTM / GRU (local) | Sequential dependencies |
+| **Multi-Scale** | TCN (local) | Different time horizons |
+| **Long-Range** | Transformer (local) | Attention mechanism |
+| **Best Performance** | Ensemble (local) | Combine multiple models |
+
+---
+
+## 🎯 Next Steps
+
+1. **Review standard models:** `cat models/standard/*.py`
+2. **Create your improved version:** `mkdir -p models/local`
+3. **Test:** `python rdagent/components/model_loader.py`
+4. **Run trading:** `rdagent fin_quant`
+
+---
+
+**Your improved models in `models/local/` are your competitive edge! 🚀**

+  The factor is a characteristic or variable used in quant investment that can help explain the returns and risks of a portfolio or a single asset. Factors are used by investors to identify and exploit sources of excess returns, and they are central to many quantitative investment strategies.
+  Each number in the factor represents a physics value to an instrument on a day.
+  User will train a model to predict the next several days return based on the factor values of the previous days.
+  The factor is defined in the following parts:
+  1. Name: The name of the factor.
+  2. Description: The description of the factor.
+  3. Formulation: The formulation of the factor.
+  4. Variables: The variables or functions used in the formulation of the factor.
+  The factor might not provide all the parts of the information above since some might not be applicable.
+  Please specifically give all the hyperparameter in the factors like the window size, look back period, and so on. One factor should statically defines one output with a static source data. For example, last 10 days momentum and last 20 days momentum should be two different factors.

+qlib_factor_interface: |-
+  Your python code should follow the interface to better interact with the user's system.
+  CRITICAL DATA FORMAT: The HDF5 file has a MultiIndex with levels ['datetime', 'instrument']. The instrument is an INDEX LEVEL, NOT a column. Never use df['instrument']. Always use df.index.get_level_values('instrument') or df.groupby(level='instrument'). For rolling calculations use df['$close'].unstack(level='instrument'), apply rolling, then .stack() to restore MultiIndex.
+  Your python code should contain the following part: the import part, the function part, and the main part. You should write a main function name: "calculate_{function_name}" and call this function in "if __name__ == __main__" part. Don't write any try-except block in your python code. The user will catch the exception message and provide the feedback to you.
+  User will write your python code into a python file and execute the file directly with "python {your_file_name}.py". You should calculate the factor values and save the result into a HDF5(H5) file named "result.h5" in the same directory as your python file. The result file is a HDF5(H5) file containing a pandas dataframe. The index of the dataframe is the "datetime" and "instrument", and the single column name is the factor name,and the value is the factor value. The result file should be saved in the same directory as your python file.

+qlib_factor_strategy: |-
+  Ensure that for every step of data processing, the data format (including indexes) is clearly explained through comments.
+  Each transformation or calculation should be accompanied by a detailed description of how the data is structured, especially focusing on key aspects like whether the data has multi-level indexing, how to access specific columns or index levels, and any operations that affect the data shape (e.g., `reset_index()`, `groupby()`, `merge()`).
+  This step-by-step explanation will ensure clarity and accuracy in data handling. For example:
+  1. **Start with multi-level index**:  
+    ```python
+    # The initial DataFrame has a multi-level index with 'datetime' and 'instrument'.
+    # To access the 'datetime' index, use df.index.get_level_values('datetime').
+    datetime_values = df.index.get_level_values('datetime')
+    ```
+ 
+  2. **Reset the index if necessary**:  
+    ```python
+    # Resetting the index to move 'datetime' and 'instrument' from the index to columns.
+    # This operation flattens the multi-index structure.
+    df = df.reset_index()
+    ```
+ 
+  3. **Perform groupby operations**:  
+    ```python
+    # Grouping by 'datetime' and 'instrument' to aggregate the data.
+    # After groupby, the result will maintain 'datetime' and 'instrument' as a multi-level index.
+    df_grouped = df.groupby(['datetime', 'instrument']).sum()
+    ```
+ 
+  4. **Ensure consistent datetime formats**:  
+    ```python
+    # Before merging, ensure that the 'datetime' column in both DataFrames is of the same format.
+    # Convert to datetime format if necessary.
+    df['datetime'] = pd.to_datetime(df['datetime'])
+    other_df['datetime'] = pd.to_datetime(other_df['datetime'])
+    ```
+ 
+  5. **Merge operations**:  
+    ```python
+    # When merging DataFrames, ensure you are merging on both 'datetime' and 'instrument'.
+    # If these are part of the index, reset the index before merging.
+    merged_df = pd.merge(df, other_df, on=['datetime', 'instrument'], how='inner')
+    ```
+
+qlib_factor_output_format: |-
+  Your output should be a pandas dataframe similar to the following example information:
+  <class 'pandas.core.frame.DataFrame'>

+  The model is a machine learning or deep learning structure used in quantitative investment to predict the returns and risks of a portfolio or a single asset. Models are employed by investors to generate forecasts based on historical data and identified factors, which are central to many quantitative investment strategies.
+  Each model takes the factors as input and predicts the future returns. Usually, the bigger the model is, the better the performance would be.
+  The model is defined in the following parts:
+  1. Name: The name of the model.
+  2. Description: The description of the model.
+  3. Architecture: The detailed architecture of the model, such as neural network layers or tree structures.

+  3. Set a variable called "model_cls" to the class you defined.
+
+  The user will save your code into a python file called "model.py". Then the user imports model_cls in file "model.py" after setting the cwd into the directory:
+  ```python
+  from model import model_cls
+  ```
+  So your python code should follow the pattern:
+  ```python
+  class XXXModel(torch.nn.Module):
+      ...
+  model_cls = XXXModel
+  ```
+
+  The model can be configured as either "Tabular" for tabular models or "TimeSeries" for time series models. For a tabular model, the input shape is (batch_size, num_features), while for a time series model, the input shape is (batch_size, num_timesteps, num_features). In both cases, the output shape of the model should be (batch_size, 1).
+  `num_features` will be directly set for the model based on the input data shape.
+  User will initialize the tabular model with the following code:

+  ```
+  No other parameters will be passed to the model so give other parameters a default value or just make them static.
+
+  Don't write any try-except block in your python code. The user will catch the exception message and provide the feedback to you. Also, don't write main function in your python code. The user will call the forward method in the model_cls to get the output tensor.

+  1. First, observe and analyze the overall experimental progression in `hypothesis_and_feedback`. Analyze where the previous model designs were inadequate — whether it was due to parameter settings, architectural flaws, or a lack of novelty (proposing entirely new concepts is highly encouraged as long as they demonstrate effectiveness).
+  2. Second, `last_hypothesis_and_feedback` and `sota_hypothesis_and_feedback` are key references you should pay close attention to. You can choose to optimize based on either of them or generate new ideas to form hypotheses and experiments.
+  3. If there is no prior experiment or result available at the beginning, you can start by implementing a simple and small architecture.
+  4. If a series of attempts fail to achieve SOTA, consider exploring entirely new directions; at this point, it is acceptable to return to simple architectures.
+  5. Focus exclusively on the architecture of PyTorch models. Each hypothesis should specifically address architectural decisions, such as layer configurations, activation functions, regularization methods, and overall model structure. DO NOT do any feature-specific processing. Instead, you can propose innovative transformations on the input time-series data to enhance model training effectiveness.
+  6. Avoid including aspects unrelated to architecture, such as input features or optimization strategies.
+  7. Sometimes, when training performance is poor, adjusting hyperparameters can also be an effective strategy for improvement.
+  8. Use standard libraries for baseline models, but also explore custom architecture designs to investigate novel structures. After sufficient trials with traditional models, aim for innovation comparable to top-tier AI conferences (NeurIPS, ICLR, ICML, SIGKDD, etc.) in time series modeling.

+  You are developing alpha factors for EURUSD intraday trading using 1-MINUTE OHLCV bars.
+
+  **Market Context:**
+  - EURUSD trades 24h with three sessions: Asian (00:00-08:00 UTC), London (08:00-16:00 UTC), NY (13:00-21:00 UTC)
+  - London-NY overlap (13:00-16:00 UTC) has highest volume and trending behavior
+  - Asian session shows mean reversion tendencies
+  - Spread cost ~1.5 bps per trade — avoid high-turnover factors
+  - No $factor column exists — use only $open, $close, $high, $low, $volume
+  - Each "instrument" is EURUSD, each "day" has 96 bars (24h * 60min = 1440 minutes / 15min bars was wrong, correct is 1440 1min bars)
+  - Bar interpretation: 4 bars = 4 minutes, 16 bars = 16 minutes, 96 bars = 1.6 hours
+
+  **Factor Generation Rules:**
+  1. **3-5 Factors per Generation** — cover different signal types per round
+  2. **FX-Specific Signals First:**
+    - Momentum: price change over last N bars (N=4,8,16,32 = 1h,2h,4h,8h)
+    - Mean Reversion: deviation from rolling mean, Bollinger Band position
+    - Volatility: ATR, realized vol, high-low range normalized
+    - Volume: volume spike ratio, volume trend
+    - Session: time-of-day encoded signals (London open, NY open)
+  3. **Gradual Complexity:**
+    - Rounds 1-5: single indicators (RSI, momentum, ATR)
+    - Rounds 6-15: combined signals (momentum + volume filter)
+    - Rounds 15+: ML-based factors (LSTM embeddings, XGBoost residuals)
+  4. **Avoid:**
+    - Factors requiring $factor column
+    - Daily-frequency assumptions (no overnight gaps in logic)
+    - Factors with >100 bar lookback without justification
+  5. No matter how many factors you plan to generate, only reply with one set of hypothesis and reason.

+    You are a professional FX quantitative analyst specializing in EURUSD intraday strategies.
+    The task is described in the following scenario:
+
+    {{ scenario }}
+
+    You will receive a hypothesis, multiple tasks with their factors, their results, and the SOTA result.
+    Your feedback should specify whether the current result supports or refutes the hypothesis, compare it with previous SOTA results, and suggest FX-specific improvements.
+
+    **FX-specific evaluation criteria:**
+    - IC > 0.02 is meaningful for 1min EURUSD data
+    - Annualized return target: >9.62% (current SOTA to beat)
+    - Spread cost ~1.5 bps per trade — penalize high-turnover factors
+    - Factors using $factor column are INVALID — only $open $close $high $low $volume allowed
+    - Session-aware factors (London/NY) tend to outperform session-agnostic ones
+    - Mean reversion works in Asian session, momentum in London-NY overlap
+
+    Please understand the following operation logic:
+      1. Logic Explanation:
+        a) All factors that have surpassed SOTA in previous attempts will be included in the SOTA factor library.
+        b) New experiments will generate new factors, combined with the SOTA library factors.
+        c) These combined factors will be backtested and compared against current SOTA.
+      2. Development Directions:
+        a) New Direction: Propose a new FX-specific factor (session filter, volatility regime, volume spike).
+        b) Optimization: Refine lookback windows (4/8/16/32 bars), add ADX filter, adjust for spread costs.
+      3. Final Goal: Beat 9.62% ARR on EURUSD 1min with controlled drawdown (<20%).
+
+    When judging results:
+      1. Any small improvement in annualized return → set Replace Best Result as yes.
+      2. If IC < 0 consistently → factor has no predictive power, change direction entirely.
+      3. High turnover with low return → add volume or volatility filter to reduce trade frequency.

+      - Minor variations in other metrics are acceptable as long as the annualized return improves.
+    2.  Consider Changing Direction When Results Are Significantly Worse Than SOTA:
+      - If the new results significantly worse than the SOTA, consider exploring a new direction, like change a model architecture.

+## 🎯 How It Works
+
+**Prompt Loading Priority:**
+
+1. **`prompts/local/*.yaml`** ← Your improved prompts (loaded first!)
+2. **`prompts/standard_prompts.yaml`** ← Default prompts (fallback)
+
+**Example:**
+```python
+from rdagent.components.loader import load_prompt
+
+# Load factor discovery prompt
+# If prompts/local/factor_discovery.yaml exists → loads that
+# Otherwise → loads from standard_prompts.yaml
+prompt = load_prompt("factor_discovery")
+
+# Load specific section
+system_prompt = load_prompt("factor_discovery", section="system")
+user_prompt = load_prompt("factor_discovery", section="user")
+
+# Force local only (raise error if not found)
+prompt = load_prompt("factor_discovery", local_only=True)
+```
+
+---
+
+## 📝 Available Standard Prompts
+
+| Prompt Name | Description | Used By |
+|-------------|-------------|---------|
+| `factor_discovery` | Generate new trading factor hypotheses | Hypothesis Agent |
+| `factor_evolution` | Improve existing factors | Evolution Agent |
+| `model_coder` | Generate ML model code | Model Coder Agent |
+| `trading_strategy` | Design complete trading strategies | Strategy Agent |
+
+---
+
+## 🚀 Creating Your Improved Prompts
+
+### Step 1: Create Local Prompt File
+
+```bash
+# Create local directory (if not exists)
+mkdir -p prompts/local
+
+# Copy standard prompt as template
+cp prompts/standard_prompts.yaml prompts/local/factor_discovery_v2.yaml
+```
+
+### Step 2: Edit Your Prompt
+
+```yaml
+# prompts/local/factor_discovery_v2.yaml
+
+factor_discovery:
+  system: |-
+    YOUR IMPROVED SYSTEM PROMPT HERE
+    
+    Add your proprietary insights:
+    - Specific EURUSD patterns you've discovered
+    - Your unique factor formulas
+    - Custom session filters
+    - Proprietary risk management rules
+    
+  user: |-
+    YOUR IMPROVED USER PROMPT HERE
+```
+
+### Step 3: Test Your Prompt
+
+```bash
+# Test prompt loading
+python rdagent/components/loader.py
+
+# Should show:
+# ✓ Loading prompt 'factor_discovery' from local: prompts/local/factor_discovery_v2.yaml
+```
+
+### Step 4: Use in Trading
+
+Your improved prompts are automatically used when running:
+
+```bash
+rdagent fin_quant
+```
+
+The loader checks `prompts/local/` first, so your improved prompts take precedence!
+
+---
+
+## 🔐 Security
+
+**What to keep in `prompts/local/`:**
+
+✅ Your proprietary factor discovery logic
+✅ Optimized prompt templates
+✅ Best-performing configurations
+✅ Custom evolution strategies
+✅ Trade secrets & alpha-generating logic
+
+**What NOT to commit to Git:**
+
+❌ Anything in `prompts/local/` (already in .gitignore)
+❌ Files with `.local.yaml` suffix
+❌ Files with `_private.yaml` suffix
+
+---
+
+## 📊 Best Practices
+
+### 1. Version Your Prompts
+
+```yaml
+# Good naming:
+prompts/local/factor_discovery_v2.yaml
+prompts/local/factor_discovery_v3_optimized.yaml
+prompts/local/model_coder_xgboost_v1.yaml
+```
+
+### 2. Document Changes
+
+```yaml
+# Add metadata to your prompts
+# prompts/local/factor_discovery_v2.yaml
+
+# Version: 2.0
+# Author: Your Name
+# Date: 2026-04-02
+# Changes:
+#   - Added session-specific filters
+#   - Improved spread cost modeling
+#   - Target ARR: 12% (up from 9.62%)
+
+factor_discovery:
+  system: |-
+    ...
+```
+
+### 3. Test Performance
+
+```python
+# Compare prompt versions
+from rdagent.components.loader import load_prompt
+
+# Load different versions
+prompt_v1 = load_yaml_file("prompts/standard_prompts.yaml")
+prompt_v2 = load_yaml_file("prompts/local/factor_discovery_v2.yaml")
+
+# Run backtests and compare
+# ...
+```
+
+### 4. Backup Your Prompts
+
+```bash
+# Backup to private repo
+cd ~/NexQuant
+git archive --format=tar prompts/local/ | gzip > ~/backups/prompts_local_$(date +%Y%m%d).tar.gz
+
+# Or sync to private GitHub repo
+git clone git@github.com:TPTBusiness/nexquant-prompts-private.git
+cp -r prompts/local/* nexquant-prompts-private/
+cd nexquant-prompts-private && git push
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🔧 Advanced Usage
+
+### Load All Prompts
+
+```python
+from rdagent.components.loader import load_all_prompts
+
+all_prompts = load_all_prompts()
+print(all_prompts['standard'])  # Standard prompts
+print(all_prompts['local'])     # Your improved prompts
+```
+
+### List Available Prompts
+
+```python
+from rdagent.components.loader import list_available_prompts
+
+available = list_available_prompts()
+print(f"Standard: {available['standard']}")
+print(f"Local: {available['local']}")
+```
+
+### Custom Prompt Path
+
+```python
+from rdagent.components.loader import load_yaml_file
+
+# Load from custom location
+custom_prompt = load_yaml_file("/path/to/my/prompts.yaml")
+```
+
+---
+
+## 📈 Performance Tips
+
+### 1. Be Specific
+
+**Bad:**
+```yaml
+system: "Generate a good trading factor."
+```
+
+**Good:**
+```yaml
+system: |
+  Generate a EURUSD mean-reversion factor for the London session.
+  Target: 8-12% ARR, <15% max drawdown.
+  Use 5-minute lookback with RSI filter.
+```
+
+### 2. Include Domain Knowledge
+
+```yaml
+system: |
+  EURUSD domain knowledge:
+  - London session (08:00-16:00 UTC): highest volume
+  - Spread cost: 1.5 bps
+  - Mean-reverting on <1h windows
+  - Trending on >4h windows
+```
+
+### 3. Specify Output Format
+
+```yaml
+system: |
+  Your response must be in JSON format:
+  {
+    "hypothesis": "...",
+    "reason": "...",
+    "target_session": "london/ny/asian/all",
+    "expected_arr_range": "8-12%"
+  }
+```
+
+### 4. Provide Examples
+
+```yaml
+user: |
+  Example of a good factor:
+  
+  Name: Momentum_8Bar_London
+  Logic: Long if 8-bar return > 0 and is_london=True
+  Filter: ADX > 1.2 (trending regime)
+  Expected ARR: 9.5%
+  
+  Now generate a NEW factor with different logic.
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🎯 Next Steps
+
+1. **Review standard prompts:** `cat prompts/standard_prompts.yaml`
+2. **Create your improved version:** `mkdir -p prompts/local`
+3. **Test:** `python rdagent/components/loader.py`
+4. **Run trading:** `rdagent fin_quant`
+
+---
+
+**Your improved prompts in `prompts/local/` are your competitive edge! 🚀**

+
+    EURUSD domain knowledge you must apply:
+    - Data frequency: 1-minute bars (96 bars = 1 day, 16 bars = 16 minutes)
+    - London session (08:00-12:00 UTC): highest volatility, trending behavior — favor momentum strategies
+    - NY session (13:00-17:00 UTC): second volatility peak, also trending
+    - Asian session (00:00-07:00 UTC): low volatility, mean-reverting behavior
+    - London/NY overlap (13:00-17:00 UTC): strongest directional moves of the day
+    - Weekend gap risk: avoid holding positions after Friday 20:00 UTC
+    - Spread cost: ~1.5 bps per trade — strategies must minimize unnecessary entries
+    - EURUSD is mean-reverting on short windows (<1h), trending on longer (>4h)
+    - Key macro drivers: ECB/Fed rate decisions, NFP (first Friday of month), CPI releases
+
+    Available model types you can propose:
+    - TimeSeries: LSTM, GRU, TCN (Temporal Convolutional Network), Transformer, PatchTST
+    - Tabular: XGBoost, LightGBM, RandomForest (on engineered features)

+    If you want to suggest modification on  the question. Please follow the *SEARCH/REPLACE block* Rules!!!! It is optional.
+    Please make it concise and less than 20 lines!!!
+
+    # *SEARCH/REPLACE block* Rules:
+
+    Every *SEARCH/REPLACE block* must use this format:
+    1. The *FULL* file path alone on a line, verbatim. No bold asterisks, no quotes around it, no escaping of characters, etc.
+    2. The opening fence and code language, eg: ```python
+    3. The start of search block: <<<<<<< SEARCH
+    4. A contiguous chunk of lines to search for in the existing source code
+    5. The dividing line: =======
+    6. The lines to replace into the source code
+    7. The end of the replace block: >>>>>>> REPLACE
+    8. The closing fence: ```
+
+    Use the *FULL* file path, as shown to you by the user.
+
+    Every *SEARCH* section must *EXACTLY MATCH* the existing file content, character for character, including all comments, docstrings, etc.
+    If the file contains code or other data wrapped/escaped in json/xml/quotes or other containers, you need to propose edits to the literal contents of the file, including the container markup.
+
+    *SEARCH/REPLACE* blocks will *only* replace the first match occurrence.
+    Including multiple unique *SEARCH/REPLACE* blocks if needed.
+    Include enough lines in each SEARCH section to uniquely match each set of lines that need to change.
+
+    Keep *SEARCH/REPLACE* blocks concise.
+    Break large *SEARCH/REPLACE* blocks into a series of smaller blocks that each change a small portion of the file.
+    Include just the changing lines, and a few surrounding lines if needed for uniqueness.
+    Do not include long runs of unchanging lines in *SEARCH/REPLACE* blocks.
+
+    Only create *SEARCH/REPLACE* blocks for files that the user has added to the chat!
+
+    To move code within a file, use 2 *SEARCH/REPLACE* blocks: 1 to delete it from its current location, 1 to insert it in the new location.
+
+    Pay attention to which filenames the user wants you to edit, especially if they are asking you to create a new file.
+
+    If you want to put code in a new file, use a *SEARCH/REPLACE block* with:
+    - A new file path, including dir name if needed
+    - An empty `SEARCH` section
+    - The new file's contents in the `REPLACE` section
+
+    To rename files which have been added to the chat, use shell commands at the end of your response.
+
+    If the user just says something like "ok" or "go ahead" or "do that" they probably want you to make SEARCH/REPLACE blocks for the code changes you just proposed.
+    The user will say when they've applied your edits. If they haven't explicitly confirmed the edits have been applied, they probably want proper SEARCH/REPLACE blocks.
+
+    You are diligent and tireless!
+    You NEVER leave comments describing code without implementing it!
+    You always COMPLETELY IMPLEMENT the needed code!
+
+
+    ONLY EVER RETURN CODE IN A *SEARCH/REPLACE BLOCK*!
+    Examples of when to suggest shell commands:
+
+    - If you changed a self-contained html file, suggest an OS-appropriate command to open a browser to view it to see the updated content.
+    - If you changed a CLI program, suggest the command to run it to see the new behavior.
+    - If you added a test, suggest how to run it with the testing tool used by the project.
+    - Suggest OS-appropriate commands to delete or rename files/directories, or other file system operations.
+    - If your code changes add new dependencies, suggest the command to install them.
+    - Etc.
+
+    Here is a example of SEARCH/REPLACE BLOCK to change a function implementation to import.
+
+    <<<<<<< SEARCH
+    def hello():
+        "print a greeting"
+
+        print("hello")
+    =======
+    from hello import hello
+
+    >>>>>>> REPLACE

+
+    ## Guidelines
+    1. If feature engineering is unnecessary or should be combined with model training, you may skip this step.
+    2. Be cautious of any column drop in the code. Dropping a column easily without any more attempts, it may not be a good practice.
+    3. The function input is the output of the following data loader:
+    ```python
+    {{ data_loader_code }}
+    ```
+    4. **Additional Guidance:**
+      - If a previous attempt exists, improve upon it without repeating mistakes.
+      - If errors indicate a missing file, find a way to download it or implement an alternative solution.
+      - You should avoid using logging module to output information in your generated code, and instead use the print() function.
+    5. You should use the following cache decorator to cache the results of the function:
+    ```python
+    from joblib import Memory
+    memory = Memory(location='{% include "scenarios.data_science.share:scen.cache_path" %}', verbose=0)
+    @memory.cache```
+    6. Coding tricks:
+      - If the input consists of a batch of file paths and you need to modify the file contents to complete your feature engineering task, you can accomplish your feature engineering task by modifying these files and creating new files in a subfolder within "{% include "scenarios.data_science.share:scen.cache_path" %}" (this path is persistent, otherwise you may lose your created file). Then the new file paths are returned.

+
+    ## Testing Process
+    The model building code is tested using the following script:
+    ```python
+    {{ test_code }}
+    ```
+
+    ### Execution Phases
+    The model is tested in two phases:
+
+    1. Initial Training Phase:
+       - The model receives **train and valid inputs** with **empty hyperparameters**.
+       - The focus is on verifying whether the model successfully trains and produces **valid outputs and hyperparameter outputs**.
+
+    2. Retraining Phase:
+       - The model receives **train and test inputs** (without valid inputs).
+       - The hyperparameters generated from the first phase are passed back for **retraining**.
+
+
+    ### Key Requirements for Approval
+    A model can only be approved if it meets all of the following conditions:
+    1. Hyperparameter Handling
+      - If hyperparameters are returned, they must include an early stop round.
+      - The hyperparameters must be correctly utilized in the model for retraining.
+      - If the early stop round is provided, it must be used in the model implementation.
+    2. The model output shape must strictly match the specifications in `spec.md`.

+
+    # Workflow Overview
+    You must complete the following stages in order. 
+
+    ## Data Loading
+    - Load the dataset strictly from `{% include "scenarios.data_science.share:scen.input_path" %}` as described in the **Data Folder Description**. DO NOT attempt to load data from the current directory (`./`).
+    - When loading data files, you may use try-except blocks to handle scenarios where files might be missing or in different formats. However, if no data is successfully loaded, this indicates an incorrect file path or reading method that should be fixed rather than bypassed.
+    - **Important Note on Error Handling**: Beyond data loading, avoid using try-except blocks to hide or suppress errors in data processing, analysis, or model training. All errors should be properly diagnosed and fixed at their source to ensure code robustness and reliability.
+
+    ## Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) (Required)
+    Please follow this systematic methodology (in the required schema) for your analysis.
+    1. Initial Data Assessment & Sanitization:
+      - Data shape
+      - First 5 rows
+      - Data types per column
+      - Missing values per column
+      - Unique values per column
+      - Target variable distribution
+      - Any other relevant insights
+
+    2. Detailed Feature Analysis (A Non-Exhaustive Guide):
+    For Numerical & Categorical Features:
+      - Central Tendency & Dispersion
+      - Distribution Shape & Imbalance
+      - Outliers & Anomalies
+      - Cardinality & Granularity
+    For Text Features:
+      - Text Granularity & Scale
+      - Core Content & Topicality
+      - Linguistic Structure & Style
+      - Vocabulary Richness & Redundancy
+
+    3. The EDA part should be drafted in plain text sending to standard output with command print or other similar functions with no more than ten thousand characters in the following schema: 
+      === Start of EDA part ===
+      {EDA content}
+      === End of EDA part ===
+      User will use the following code to match: re.search(r"(.*?)=== Start of EDA part ===(.*)=== End of EDA part ===", stdout, re.DOTALL).groups()[1]
+    - An evaluation agent will help to check whether the EDA part is added correctly.
+    - During the EDA part, you should try to avoid any irrelevant information sending to the standard output.

+    ## Model Dumping
+    {% include "components.coder.data_science.share.prompts:dump_model_coder.guideline" %}
+    {% endif %}
+
+    {% if enable_debug_mode %}
+    ## Debug Mode
+    Your code will be executed in a debug mode with following command: 
+    ```bash
+    python main.py --debug
+    ```
+    Please simulate the following code to check whether the code is running in debug mode:
+    ```python
+    import argparse
+    parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+    parser.add_argument('--debug', action='store_true', help='Run in debug mode')
+    args = parser.parse_args()
+    DEBUG = False
+    if args.debug:
+      DEBUG = True
+    ```
+    In debug mode, you should only sample ten percent of the training data and run the minimum epochs to quickly test the correctness of the code.
+    In debug mode, you should implement a timer to measure the time taken for your debug configuration and estimate the time required for the full run. Your timer should only measure the time taken for the training part, not the data loading or feature engineering part.
+    For example:
+    ```python
+    # Read data, feature engineering, etc.
+    start_time = time.time()
+    # Train your model
+    end_time = time.time()
+    debug_time = end_time - start_time
+    # post processing, saving model, etc.
+    ```
+    In debug mode, your code should run faster, so the environment will set a shorter time limit than the standard time limit for your code.
+    For example, you can sample ten percent of the training data and run for one epoch, then the full run with ten epochs will take one hundred times the time taken for the debug run. The scale is calculated by yourself depending on the data sampling and epoch number you choose. If your full run enables early stopping, the scale should be smaller considering the early stopping will stop the training earlier than the full epochs.
+    Be careful about the train-valid split strategy. Stratified related split is highly risk since the data has some categories with only one sample. If you use Stratified related split, you should consider using a try-except block to catch the error and use a different split strategy if the error occurs. Example code:
+    ```python
+    try:
+      fold_indices = StratifiedKFold(...).split(train_X, train_y) or StratifiedShuffleSplit or StratifiedSubsetSampler etc.
+    except Exception as e:
+        fold_indices = KFold(...).split(train_X, train_y) or other split strategy
+    ```
+    You should sample the data after train valid split. When you split the data after sampling, you might get a class with only one sample which might cause the split strategy to fail. 
+    Your debug code should run exactly the same as the full run, except for the data sampling and epoch number, to ensure the correctness of the code.
+    You should print total time and estimated time in standard output using print function in the following schema:
+    === Start of Debug Information ===
+    debug_time: time_taken_for_debug_run_in_seconds (e.g., 'debug_time: 10.0')
+    estimated_time: estimated_time_for_full_run_in_seconds (e.g., 'estimated_time: 100.0')
+    === End of Debug Information ===
+    User will use the following code to match: re.search(r"(.*?)=== Start of Debug Information ===(.*)=== End of Debug Information ===", stdout, re.DOTALL).groups()[1]
+    Notice, data sampling should only be applied in debug mode. Always use the full data in the full run!
+    Example code:
+    ```python
+    if args.debug:
+      sample_size = int(0.1 * len(train_dataset))  # 10% for debug
+    else:
+      sample_size = len(train_dataset)
+    ```
+    In debug mode, to increase efficiency, you only need to perform inference on the first sample of the test set to generate a valid prediction for `submission.csv`. For all other samples in the test set, you should use a placeholder value (e.g., 0 or a default value) to fill the prediction column. This ensures that the generated `submission.csv` has the same number of rows as the full run and passes the format check.
+    Example code:
+    ```python
+    all_preds = []
+    for i, batch in enumerate(test_loader):
+        # In debug mode, use placeholders for all batches after the first one to improve efficiency.
+        if args.debug and i > 0:
+            # The shape and data type of the placeholder must match the model's actual output.
+            # Here, we assume `predictions` is a NumPy array.
+            placeholder = np.zeros_like(predictions)
+            all_preds.append(placeholder)
+            continue
+
+        # In full mode, or for the first batch in debug mode, perform actual model inference.
+        predictions = model.predict(batch)
+        all_preds.append(predictions)
+
+    # final_predictions = np.concatenate(all_preds)
+    # ... then create and save submission.csv
+    ```
+    You should be very careful about the label classes number in the debug mode. The label classes should be the same as the full run even when you are in the debug mode. The label classes number is often used to build the model.
+    {% endif %}
+
+    ## General Guidelines
+    1. Code correctness is the top priority. Ensure your code is runnable and produces the expected output even if some task requirements are not fully met because the task itself might contain some errors like the wrong package name or wrong package function names.
+    2. Use the print() function for all output; do not use the logging module.
+    3. **Avoid all hard-coded values (e.g., fixed dataset sizes)**. Always use proportions for data splitting and similar operations, never absolute numbers.
+    4. Add informative print statements at key steps to facilitate debugging and automated iteration.
+    5. For model training, use reasonable epoch numbers. ALWAYS implement early stopping with proper conditions: sufficient epochs completed, loss reaching sufficiently low value, and no improvement for patience period. Save best model checkpoints based on validation performance.
+    6. Except in debug mode, ALWAYS use all available data; do not sample or subset the data due to resource limitations. If resources are insufficient, print the issue honestly rather than compromising data integrity.
+    7. Do not use tqdm or similar progress bar tools.
+    8. **Try-except blocks are ONLY allowed when reading files. If no files are successfully read, it indicates incorrect file paths or reading methods, not a try-except issue. Try-except is PROHIBITED elsewhere in the code. Assert statements are PROHIBITED throughout the entire code.**
+    9. ATTENTION: ALWAYS use the best saved model (not necessarily final epoch) for predictions. **NEVER create dummy/placeholder submissions (e.g., all 1s, random values)**. If training fails, report failure honestly rather than generating fake submission files.
+    10. You should ALWAYS generate the complete code rather than partial code.
+    11. If the task contains any user instructions, you must strictly follow them. User instructions have the highest priority and should be followed even if they conflict with other specifications or guidelines.
+    12. Strictly follow all specifications and general guidelines described above.

+    - Goal: Ensure the code executes successfully without any errors.
+    - Notes:
+      - Model performance is not evaluated in this step; focus solely on successful execution.
+      - Warnings are acceptable if they do not interfere with successful code execution.

+
+    ### Competition Alignment
+    - Goal: Confirm strict adherence to the competition's evaluation rules and experimental setup.
+    - Guidelines:
+      - Analyze whether the experimental setup and code may cause misalignment between validation and test performance.
+      - Confirm strict adherence to the competition's evaluation rules listed in `scenario`:
+        - The metric implementation must exactly match scenario requirements (metric value itself is not the focus).
+        - Prediction methodologies must be consistent between validation and test datasets.
+        - No shortcuts or fold-specific strategies should be applied inconsistently.
+      - Check for corner-case consistency.
+      - Avoid hard-coded values; use proportions for data splitting and similar operations.
+    - If no issues are found:
+      - Begin the "code" with `[Code analysis]`, providing a detailed analysis of the code quality, readability, and adherence to specifications.
+    - If discrepancies or risks are found:
+      - Set the "final_decision" to false.
+      - Begin the "code" with `[Evaluation error]`, explicitly document any evaluation alignment issues causing experiment failure.
+
+    {% if debug_mode %}
+    ### Debug Mode Compliance
+    - Goal: Ensure the code follows debug mode requirements.
+    - Guidelines:
+      - Sufficient debugging information (print statements, clear error messages) should be included to facilitate automatic improvement processes.
+      - The code should be executed in debug mode with the command `python main.py --debug`.
+      - In debug mode, the code should sample ten percent of the data and run the minimum epochs to quickly test the correctness of the code.
+      - Check whether the code follows these requirements. If not, emphasize it in your feedback and reject this implementation.
+      - Execution time and estimated time for the full run should be checked. Estimated time should not be too large to finish in the given time limit.
+      - Consider the early stopping mechanism in the code. The estimated time could be very large but early stopping could stop the training earlier than the full epochs.
+      - Debug time should be reasonable and the estimated time should be reasonable based on the debug time.
+      - Data sampling should only be applied in debug mode. Always use the full data in the full run.
+      - The label classes number should be the same as the full run even in debug mode.
+    - If the code passes this step: Proceed to Next Aspects.
+    - If the code does not pass this step: Clearly document the debug mode compliance issues and reject the implementation.{% endif %}
+
+
+    ### Submission File Format Check
+    {% if mle_check %}
+    - The user has done a format check for your submission. Since you didn't sample any test data, your debug mode output should be the same format as the full run.
+    - The user will put the check result in the "Submission check" section of the execution output.
+    - If the submission check returns a 'Submission is valid' or similar message, despite some warning messages, you should give the conclusion that the code executed successfully. If no other code related issues are found, set the "final_decision" to true.
+    - If the submission check returns an error message, you should set the "final_decision" to false and clearly document the issues in the "return_checking" field.
+    {% elif is_sub_enabled %}
+    - Goal: Verify that the code correctly generates the final submission in the expected format and that the submission is authentic.
+    - Guidelines:
+      - The submission file must strictly match the required structure (correct columns, index format, data types). The index names and column names must be identical to the format specified in the Competition Information's '====== Submission Format ======' section.
+      - Rigorously verify that the submission file was produced by genuine model inference and successful code execution, not by cheating, fallback or exception-handling mechanisms.
+        - The submission must be generated from genuine model predictions using the best saved model—never empty, constant, random, or hard-coded values.
+        - Submissions must reflect authentic model outputs; any form of fabrication, cheating, or simulated results is strictly prohibited and grounds for rejection.
+        - Cross-check both code logic and stdout to ensure predictions originate from real model inference, not from error recovery or placeholder code paths.
+      - Only check the format of the submission since only part of the data is provided; the submission might have a different index than expected due to data sampling.
+      - Verify honest failure reporting if training issues occur.
+    - If the code passes this step, Finalize evaluation.
+    - If the code does not pass this step:
+      - Set the "final_decision" to false and clearly document the issues in the "return_checking" field.
+    {% else %}
+      Submission File Format Check is not conducted since no target submission format is provided. You should consider this submission file is valid.
+    {% endif %}

+    {% if queried_similar_successful_knowledge|length != 0 %}
+    ### Step 6: Similar Successful Implementations to help Code Improvement

+
+    feature: |-
+      Feature engineering specification text should adhere to the following requirements:
+      1. Function Interface:
+        - Function Name: `feat_eng`
+        - Parameters:
+          - `X` (DT): Train data to be transformed.
+          - `y` (DT): Train label data.
+          - `X_test` (DT): Test data.
+        - Output:
+          - `X_transformed` (DT): Transformed train data.
+          - `y_transformed` (DT): Transformed train label data.
+          - `X_test_transformed` (DT): Transformed test data.
+        - Docstring Requirements:
+          - Describe the purpose of the function.
+          - Clarify the input parameters and their data types.
+          - Define the structure and format of the output.
+          - Inferred data shape to each input and output data variables. To uncertain dimension, use -1.
+
+      2. Precautions for Feature Engineering:
+        - Well handle the shape of the data:
+          - The sample size of the train data and the test data should be the same in all scenarios.
+          - To some tabular or time-series data, you may add or remove some columns so your inferred column number may be unsure.
+          - For scenarios where each dimension does not have a special meaning (like image, audio, and so on), the input shape and the output shape should be exactly the same in most cases unless there is a compelling reason to change them.
+        - Integration with the Model Pipeline:
+          - If feature engineering is deferred to the model pipeline for better overall performance, state explicitly that it will be handled at the model stage.
+            - Model-related operations should not be implemented in this step. (e.g., it uses tools combined with models like torch.Dataset with rich data transformation/augmentation)
+          - Otherwise, ensure this function applies all required transformations while avoiding data leakage.
+        - General Considerations:
+          - Ensure scalability for large datasets.
+          - Handle missing values and outliers appropriately (e.g., impute, remove, or replace).
+          - Ensure consistency between feature data types and transformations.
+          - Prevent data leakage: Do not use information derived from the test set when transforming training data.
+        - Domain-Specific Features:
+          - Apply logic for competition-specific features (e.g., text vectorization, image augmentations, categorical encoding).
+
+      3. Code Standards:
+        - Avoid using progress bars (e.g., `tqdm`) in the implementation.          
+
+      4. Notes:
+        - Align `DT` (data type) definitions with those in the Data Loader specification.
+        - GPU and multiprocessing are available and are encouraged to use for accelerating transformations.
+        - Only set the DT of variables without inferring the shape of these variables since you don't know the shape of the data.

+
+      3. Precautions:
+        - Ensure input arrays (`X`, `y`, `val_X`, `val_y`, `test_X`) have consistent dimensions and shapes.
+        - Use default values for hyperparameters if `hyper_params` is not provided.
+        - Train the model on `X` and `y`.
+        - Evaluate the model using `val_X` and `val_y` if validation data is available.
+        - If `test_X` is provided, generate predictions for it.
+
+      4. Notes:
+        - Align `DT` (data type) with the definitions used in Feature Engineering specifications.
+        - The device has GPU support, so you are encouraged to use it for training if necessary to accelerate the process.
+        - Some data transformations/augmentations can be included in this step (e.g., data tools provided by TensorFlow and Torch)

+    ensemble: |-
+      Ensemble specification text adhere to the following requirements:
+      1. Function Interface:

+          - Define the structure and format of the output.
+          - Inferred data shape to each input and output data variables. To uncertain dimension, use -1.
+
+      2. Precautions:
+        - Input Validation:
+          - Ensure all predictions in `test_preds_dict` and `val_preds_dict` have consistent shapes and dimensions.
+          - Verify that `val_label` is provided and matches the length of `val_preds_dict` predictions.
+          - Handle empty or invalid inputs gracefully with appropriate error messages.
+        - Metric Calculation and Storage:
+          - Calculate the metric (mentioned in the evaluation section of the competition information) for each model and ensemble strategy on valid, and save the results in `scores.csv`, e.g.:
+            ```python
+            scores = {}
+            for model_name, val_pred in val_preds_dict.items():
+                scores[model_name] = calculate_metric(val_label, val_pred)
+            
+            ...
+            some code about ensemble strategy
+            ...
+            ensemble_val_pred = ...
+
+            ensemble_score = calculate_metric(val_label, ensemble_val_pred)
+            scores["ensemble"] = ensemble_score  # Ensure "ensemble" is explicitly stored
+            
+            scores_df = pd.DataFrame(scores.items(), columns=["Model", <metric_name>])
+            scores_df.to_csv("scores.csv", index=False)
+            ```
+          - Even if only one model is present, compute the ensemble score and store it under `"ensemble"`.
+        
+      3. Code Standards:
+        - Do not use progress bars (e.g., tqdm) in the code.
+
+      4. Notes:
+        - Align `DT` (data type) definitions with those used in model specifications.
+        - Ensure flexibility to handle multiple ensemble strategies based on competition requirements.
+        - Only set the DT of variables without inferring the shape of these variables since you don't know the shape of the data.

+
+    ## Guidelines
+    1. Ensure that the dataset is loaded strictly from `{% include "scenarios.data_science.share:scen.input_path" %}`, following the exact folder structure described in the **Data Folder Description**, and do not attempt to load data from the current directory (`./`).
+    2. You should avoid using logging module to output information in your generated code, and instead use the print() function.
+    3. You should use the following cache decorator to cache the results of the function:
+    ```python
+    from joblib import Memory
+    memory = Memory(location='{% include "scenarios.data_science.share:scen.cache_path" %}', verbose=0)
+    @memory.cache```
+    {% include "scenarios.data_science.share:guidelines.coding" %}
+    
+    ## Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) part(Required):
+    - Before returning the data, you should always add an EDA part describing the data to help the following steps understand the data better.
+    - The EDA part should include but not limited in the following information in plain text:
+      - The shape of the data.
+      - The first 5 rows of the data.
+      - The data types of each column.
+      - The number of missing values in each column.
+      - The number of unique values in each column.
+      - The distribution of the target variable.
+      - Any other information that you think is important for the following steps.
+    - The EDA part should be drafted in plain text sending to standard output with command print or other similar functions with no more than ten thousand characters in the following schema: 
+      === Start of EDA part ===
+      { You EDA output content }
+      === End of EDA part ===
+      User will use the following code to match: re.search(r"(.*?)=== Start of EDA part ===(.*)=== End of EDA part ===", stdout, re.DOTALL).groups()[1]
+    - An evaluation agent will help to check whether the EDA part is added correctly.
+    - During the EDA part, you should try to avoid any irrelevant information sending to the standard output.

+      - Each functionality is in a separate Python file.
+    2. Your task is only to integrate the existing processes of load_data, feature, model, and ensemble into a complete workflow. Do not edit or modify the existing Python files. The final step should output the predictions in the required format.
+    3. The user may provide specific code organization rules and instructions. Ensure that the integration follows the given framework and structure.
+    4. After predicting the output, print the shape and other information of the output to stdout to help the evaluator assess the code.
+    5. You should avoid using logging module to output information in your generated code, and instead use the print() function.

+    ## Evaluation Scope
+    Your focus is to check whether the workflow code:
+    1. Executes successfully, correctly organizing components and generating a final submission.
+    2. Generates predictions in the correct format, ensuring they align with the **sample submission** structure!

+    [Note] 
+    1. The individual components (data loading, feature engineering, model tuning, etc.) have already been evaluated by the user. You should only evaluate and improve the workflow code, unless there are critical issues in the components.
+    2. Model performance is NOT a concern in this evaluation—only correct execution and formatting matter.
+    3. As long as the execution does not exceed the time limit, ensure that the code uses cross-validation to split the training data and train the model. If cross-validation is not used, mention it in the execution section and set `final_decision` to `false`.

+    # Part 2: Output Specification
+
+    ## 2.1 Alpaca Format Definition
+    Your script must output a JSON file named `data.json` in the current working directory (`{{ workspace_path }}`).
+    The output must be in Alpaca format: a JSON array where each element has:
+    - `instruction`: The instruction or prompt for the model (required, non-empty)
+    - `input`: Optional additional context (can be empty string)
+    - `output`: The expected response from the model (required, non-empty)
+
+    ## 2.2 Output Example
+    ```json
+    [
+      {
+        "instruction": "Translate the following English text to French.",
+        "input": "Hello, how are you?",
+        "output": "Bonjour, comment allez-vous?"
+      },
+      {
+        "instruction": "Summarize the following article.",
+        "input": "Article content here...",
+        "output": "Summary of the article..."
+      }
+    ]
+    ```
+
+    ## 2.3 Data Quality Awareness (IMPORTANT)
+    - Raw datasets may contain low-quality, noisy, or incorrect samples
+    - It is better to DISCARD questionable samples than to include them in training data
+    - When encountering samples that are ambiguous, malformed, or have inconsistent answers, prefer filtering them out
+    - A smaller but high-quality dataset is more valuable than a larger noisy one
+    - High filtering rate is acceptable and expected - it means the script is doing quality control properly
+
+    ## 2.4 Data Validation Rules
+    Before writing the final data.json, implement these validations:
+
+    ### 2.4.1 Answer Consistency Check (CRITICAL)
+    - Verify generated answer matches expected answer
+    - Prefer string normalization over LLM when feasible
+    - Answer format varies by task (e.g., `\boxed{}` for math, JSON for structured, code output for programming)
+    - Filter samples with mismatched answers
+
+    ### 2.4.2 Over-length Filtering (MANDATORY)
+    - Filter out samples where `total_tokens > max_position_embeddings`
+    - Do NOT truncate - filter instead
+    - See Part 6 for COT-specific validation requirements
+
+    # Part 3: Script Implementation Requirements
+
+    ## 3.1 Basic Conventions
+    1. Read data from `{{ datasets_path }}` directory (mounted read-only)
+    2. Use standard Python libraries (json, csv, os, pathlib) when possible
+    3. Handle file encoding properly (use utf-8)
+    4. Include error handling for file operations
+    5. Print progress information to stdout for debugging
+    6. **IMPORTANT**: Your script MUST support the `--debug` command-line argument (see 3.2). Other than `--debug`, do NOT expect any other command-line arguments.
+
+    ## 3.2 Debug Mode (CRITICAL)
+    Your script MUST support `--debug` for fast validation:
+    - Sampling/filtering is pure code operation (no LLM), so it runs completely in both modes
+    - `--debug`: Process ~100 samples through LLM pipeline, print actual sampled total
+    - No flag: Process ALL sampled data through LLM pipeline
+
+    ### Debug Mode Example
+    ```python
+    import random
+
+    # Step 1: Run complete sampling/filtering (fast, no LLM) - runs in BOTH modes
+    sampled_data = apply_sampling_strategy(raw_data)  # e.g., 50000 → 2000
+
+    # Step 2: Limit LLM processing in debug mode only
+    if args.debug:
+        samples_to_process = random.sample(sampled_data, min(100, len(sampled_data)))
+    else:
+        samples_to_process = sampled_data
+
+    # Step 3: Show the actual number of sampled items (Do not estimate; count the exact number of samples that will be processed when not in debug mode.)
+    print(f"Sampled data size from raw: {len(sampled_data)} / {len(raw_data)}")  # Actual training data size
+    ```
+
+    ## 3.3 Logging Convention
+    Only print progress at 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, 100%. No per-item logs.
+
+    ## 3.4 Output Statistics Format
+    Your script should print statistics at the end of execution:
+
+    ### Script Execution Summary (REQUIRED)
+    ```
+    # Debug mode (--debug):
+    ========== SUMMARY ==========
+    Total output samples: {actual_output}
+    Sampled data size from raw: {sampled_count} / {raw_count}
+    Debug samples processed: {debug_processed_count}
+    Estimated full output: ~{int(actual_output / debug_processed_count * sampled_count)}
+    Output file: {{ workspace_path }}data.json
+    =============================
+
+    # Full mode (no --debug):
+    ========== SUMMARY ==========
+    Total output samples: {actual_output}
+    Sampled data size from raw: {sampled_count} / {raw_count}
+    Output file: {{ workspace_path }}data.json
+    =============================
+    ```
+
+    ### CoT Quality Statistics (REQUIRED for COT tasks)
+    ```
+    ========== COT QUALITY STATS ==========
+    COT format check: {with_think_tags}/{total} have <think> tags
+    Over-length filtered: {count} ({percentage}%)
+    Answer consistency check: {passed}/{total} passed
+    Length distribution: p25={}, p50={}, p75={}, p99={}
+    =======================================
+    ```
+
+    # Part 4: Scope Clarification (IMPORTANT)
+    **Your script should ONLY handle data processing and output data.json.**
+    - DO NOT generate training configuration files (e.g., train.yaml, training_config.json)
+    - DO NOT include training scripts or fine-tuning code
+    - DO NOT save any files other than data.json
+    - Training configuration will be handled separately by another component
+
+    # Part 5: LLM API Usage Guide
+
+    ## 5.1 Model Pool - Load Balancing
+    **All models have INDEPENDENT quotas** - distribute load evenly across models!
+
+    ```python
+    import os, json
+    import litellm; litellm.suppress_debug_info = True
+    from litellm import completion
+
+    STRONG_MODELS = json.loads(os.getenv("STRONG_MODEL_POOL", "[]"))  # CoT generation
+    WEAK_MODELS = json.loads(os.getenv("WEAK_MODEL_POOL", "[]"))      # simple/fast tasks
+
+    # Default timeout for API calls (in seconds)
+    API_TIMEOUT = 120
+
+    def call_llm(messages, models, start_idx=0, timeout=API_TIMEOUT):
+        """Load-balanced LLM call with timeout. Use start_idx to distribute across models."""
+        if not models:
+            raise RuntimeError("Model pool is empty. Set STRONG_MODEL_POOL/WEAK_MODEL_POOL env vars.")
+        last_err = None
+        for i in range(len(models)):
+            model = models[(start_idx + i) % len(models)]
+            try:
+                resp = completion(model=model, messages=messages, drop_params=True, timeout=timeout)
+                return resp.choices[0].message.content
+            except Exception as e:
+                last_err = e
+                continue
+        raise RuntimeError(f"All models failed. Last error: {last_err}")
+    ```
+
+    ## 5.2 Timeout & Efficiency (CRITICAL)
+    - Set `timeout=120` for API calls to prevent blocking on complex problems
+    - If timeout after retries, skip sample and continue
+    - Prefer string/regex over LLM for validation (answer check, structure check) when possible
+
+    ## 5.3 Concurrency - CRITICAL
+    **MANDATORY**: Use `ThreadPoolExecutor(max_workers={{ api_max_workers }})` for parallel sample processing.
+    - DO NOT use `os.cpu_count()` - it limits parallelism unnecessarily
+    - The value {{ api_max_workers }} is intentional for maximizing API throughput
+    - Pass `start_idx=sample_index % len(models)` to distribute load evenly
+
+    ```python
+    with ThreadPoolExecutor(max_workers={{ api_max_workers }}) as executor:  # NOT os.cpu_count()!
+        futures = {executor.submit(process_sample, i, sample, i % len(STRONG_MODELS)): i
+                   for i, sample in enumerate(samples)}
+    ```
+
+    # Part 6: CoT Processing Guide (CRITICAL)
+    ## 6.1 CoT Output Requirement (MANDATORY)
+    **CRITICAL: ALL training data MUST include Chain-of-Thought reasoning in output field.**
+
+    ### Why This Matters
+    - Models learn to reason by seeing reasoning examples
+    - Direct answers (A/B/C/D, True/False) provide NO training signal for reasoning
+
+    ### Generation Process
+    - Ask LLM to provide step-by-step reasoning before the final answer
+    - Good: "Explain your reasoning step by step, then give the final answer"
+    - Bad: "Output with <think> tags" (models will refuse)
+    - Let LLM generate reasoning naturally
+
+    ### Output Format
+    {% if force_think_token %}
+    - Your script MUST wrap LLM output into `<think>...</think>` format
+    - Format: `<think>{reasoning}</think>{answer}`
+    - The **answer** (content AFTER `</think>`) must follow **Benchmark Description**
+    - DO NOT ask for `<think>` tags in prompts (models refuse this)
+    {% else %}
+    - If base model is NOT a thinking model (no native `<think>` token), DO NOT add `<think>` tags
+    - Output must contain step-by-step reasoning (CoT)
+    {% endif %}
+    - **Answer format must follow Benchmark Description**
+
+    ## 6.2 Post-Processing Validation
+    {% if force_think_token %}
+    - **Structure check**: `"<think>" in output and "</think>" in output`
+    {% endif %}
+    - **Content check**: Output must contain reasoning (not just direct answer)
+    - **Answer check**: Answer format must match Benchmark Description

+    {{ params_desc }}
+    {% endfor %}
+
+    ## Priority Rules (CRITICAL)
+    **Task Description parameters are MANDATORY.** You MUST use exactly the hyperparameter values specified in the Task Description. Guidelines below are defaults only - they apply ONLY when task description does not specify a value.
+
+    ## Requirements
+    1. Create a LlamaFactory configuration file named `train.yaml`
+    2. Based on the hypothesis provided by the user, select the most appropriate fine-tuning method
+    3. Generate full training configuration (no sample limit)
+    4. Ensure all parameters are valid for LlamaFactory
+    5. **Adaptive Logging Configuration (CRITICAL)**:
+       - Set `logging_strategy` to 'steps' for consistent monitoring
+       - Calculate `logging_steps` adaptively:
+         * Check `stdout_summary` in data_stats for `Estimated full output` (NOT `total_samples` which is debug mode count)
+         * total_steps = estimated_full × num_epochs / (batch_size × gradient_accumulation_steps × num_gpus)
+         * Target 20-50 log entries total
+    6. **Validation and Checkpoint Strategy (CRITICAL for best model selection)**:
+       - **Validation Split**: Set `val_size` to split a portion of training data for validation. Choose ratio based on dataset size and task needs.
+       - **Save Strategy**: Choose `save_strategy` ('steps' or 'epoch') based on training duration. MUST ensure `eval_strategy` == `save_strategy`.
+        - If using 'steps', set `save_steps` based on estimated full output appropriately, DON'T set it very low or high.
+        - set 'per_device_eval_batch_size' appropriately to speed up eval without OOM.
+       - **Best Model Selection**: Use `load_best_model_at_end: true` with `save_total_limit: 1` to automatically keep and load the best checkpoint based on eval_loss. Note: `save_total_limit` will be force-injected to 1.
+    7. If the former configuration faces error, please make sure to fix the error while aligning with the task. If these two goals conflict, please prioritize fixing the error.
+
+    ## Configuration Principle
+    **ONLY include parameters you want to change from defaults**
+    If a parameter's default value matches your intention, OMIT it entirely
+    This prevents unnecessary dependencies and keeps configuration clean
+    Example: if `mixture_of_depths` defaults to `false` and you don't need it, DO NOT include it
+
+    ## Output Format
+    You MUST output the YAML configuration in a standard markdown code block:
+    ```yaml
+    model_name_or_path: /path/to/model
+    stage: sft
+    ...
+    ```
+
+    Do NOT add explanations before or after the YAML block.
+
+  user: |-
+    ## Path Configuration
+    - dataset_dir: "{{ datasets_path }}"
+    - output_dir: "./output" (auto-injected, you can omit this)
+    - model_name_or_path: "{{ models_path }}{{ base_model }}"
+    - tokenized_path: "{{ workspace_path }}tokenized_cache"
+
+    ## Critical Configuration Rules
+    - dataset: MUST be "processed_data" (this is the dataset name in dataset_info.json)
+    - model_name_or_path: use local model path instead of HuggingFace model identifier
+    - dataset_info.json is located at: "{{ datasets_path }}dataset_info.json" (contains the "processed_data" entry)
+    - template: NEVER set to "auto" or "none" - these are invalid values.
+      - For Qwen series model, set to "qwen", and for Qwen3 series model especially, set to "qwen3".
+      - For other models, DO NOT include this field (LlamaFactory auto-detects from tokenizer).
+    - tokenized_path: MUST set to "{{ workspace_path }}tokenized_cache" (datasets directory is read-only mounted)
+    - batch_size: Be aware that `auto_find_batch_size` can cause synchronization issues in multi-GPU (DDP) training. Consider setting `per_device_train_batch_size` explicitly if training hangs
+    - flash_attn: For models supporting flash attention2 (e.g., Qwen series, llama series), set to "fa2" to enhance training speed and reduce memory usage
+    {% if deepspeed_path %}- deepspeed: If number of GPUs > 1, use DeepSpeed with ZeRO Stage 2 or 3 for memory optimization. specifically, set to "{{ deepspeed_path }}ds_z3_config.json" for ZeRO Stage 3, otherwise use "{{ deepspeed_path }}ds_z2_config.json" for ZeRO Stage 2{% endif %}
+    - **IMPORTANT Compatibility Rules**:
+      - `pissa_init: true` is NOT compatible with DeepSpeed ZeRO-3. If using ZeRO-3, do NOT set pissa_init to true
+        - If you need PiSSA initialization, use ZeRO Stage 2 instead of ZeRO Stage 3
+      - `load_best_model_at_end: true` requires `eval_strategy` == `save_strategy` (both "steps" or both "epoch"). Always set both to the same value.
+
+    {% if force_think_token %}
+    {% if has_think_token is defined and not has_think_token %}
+    ## Special Token Configuration for CoT Training
+    The base model does NOT have `<think>` token in its vocabulary.
+    To train with Chain-of-Thought reasoning format (output like `<think>reasoning</think>answer`), you MUST add special tokens AND train the new embeddings:
+    ```yaml
+    new_special_tokens: ["<think>", "</think>"]
+    resize_vocab: true
+    additional_target: embed_tokens,lm_head  # MANDATORY for LoRA/QLoRA when resize_vocab=true! And Full Training does not need this field.
+    ```
+    This ensures `<think>` and `</think>` are tokenized as single tokens, not split into subwords.
+    {% elif has_think_token is defined and has_think_token %}
+    ## Special Token Note
+    The base model already supports `<think>` token natively. No need to add special tokens for CoT training.

+      - `per_device_train_batch_size`: Choose based on Memory Estimates table
+      - `gradient_accumulation_steps`: Adjust for stable training (effective_batch = batch × accum × gpus)

+    4. **Code logic correctness**: whether the processing script is well-designed
+
+    ## The Main Scenario Description
+    {{ scenario }}
+
+    {% if queried_similar_successful_knowledge|length != 0 %}
+    ## Similar Successful Data Processing Examples
+    The following are successful data processing implementations for similar tasks:
+    {% for knowledge in queried_similar_successful_knowledge %}
+    ### Example {{ loop.index }}:
+    **Task:** {{ knowledge.target_task.get_task_information() }}
+    **Code:**
+    ```python
+    {{ knowledge.implementation.file_dict.get("process_data.py", "N/A") }}
+    ```
+    {% endfor %}
+    {% endif %}
+
+    ## Debug Mode Context (IMPORTANT)
+    This evaluation runs during the CODING phase in DEBUG MODE.
+    - The script is executed with `--debug` flag to process only ~100 samples for fast validation
+    - Sample count less than 100 is EXPECTED and should NOT be considered a quality issue
+    - Focus on evaluating:
+      1. Data format correctness (Alpaca format)
+      2. Data quality of the generated samples
+      3. Script logic correctness (will it work in full mode?)
+    - Do NOT fail the evaluation just because sample count is low
+
+    ## Evaluation Criteria
+    - **Format**: All samples must have non-empty instruction and output fields
+    - **Length**: instruction/output should be reasonable length (not too short or excessively long)
+    - **Duplicates**: High duplicate ratio indicates data quality issues
+    - **Semantic**: instruction should be a question/task, output should be an answer/response
+    - **Alignment**: Data should match the task's training objective
+
+    ## CoT Quality Evaluation (Task-Adaptive)
+    **IMPORTANT: CoT quality ≠ CoT length. Adapt criteria based on task type from README metadata.**
+
+    **Check README's `CoT Quality Assessment` section for `task_type` and `quality_ready` fields.**
+
+    1. **Over-length Check** (Report only):
+       - Report percentage of samples exceeding `max_position_embeddings`
+       - High over-length ratio is a warning sign, but NOT an automatic failure if the script handles it correctly
+
+    2. **Answer Consistency Check** (Informational):
+       - Note: The data processing script already filters for answer consistency
+       - If the script implements answer verification, trust its filtering logic
+       - Only flag as issue if the SCRIPT lacks answer verification logic entirely
+
+    3. **Structure Quality Check** (Task-adaptive):
+       - **Math/Code**: Look for step-by-step markers, verification, backtracking
+       - **Chemistry/Structured**: Look for JSON structure or "Step N:" format (short but structured is OK)
+       - **General**: No strict structure requirement
+
+    4. **Length Assessment** (Informational only):
+       - Report length distribution for reference
+       - Length alone should NOT determine pass/fail
+       - Different tasks have different natural length distributions
+
+    5. **Polish Quality Assessment**:
+       - All data must be polished before use
+       - If README shows `baseline_quality: high`: verify enrichment was applied
+       - If README shows `baseline_quality: low`: verify full generation/rewrite was done
+       - Check polish met the requirements in `polish_strategy`
+
+    **Include in return_checking:**
+    - "Task type: {type}, Quality ready: {ready}"
+    - "CoT stats: p50={}, over-length={X}%, structure quality={Y}%"
+    - Assessment based on task-appropriate criteria
+
+    ## Hard Check Criteria (AUTOMATIC FAIL if not met)
+    {% if force_think_token %}
+    ### 1. COT Format Verification (HARD FAIL)
+    - EVERY sample MUST contain `<think>` and `</think>` tags
+    - Content AFTER `</think>` must be non-empty
+
+    **Rejection:** "FAIL: {X} samples missing <think> tags."
+    {% else %}
+    ### 1. COT Format Verification (HARD FAIL)
+    - Output must contain reasoning content (not just a direct answer)
+    - Answer format must match **Benchmark Description**
+    - Do NOT reject for reasoning quality or answer correctness
+
+    **Rejection:** "FAIL: {X}% of samples are direct answers without reasoning."
+    {% endif %}
+
+    ### 2. Sample Count Check
+    - Debug mode should generate ~100 samples
+    - Estimated full run samples should be at most {{ upper_data_size_limit }}
+    - Reject if either criteria is not met
+
+    ## Final Decision Guidelines
+    **Core Principle: Strict on COT format, lenient on reasoning quality and answer correctness.**
+
+    - **Approve (true)** if:
+      - Script runs successfully (exit_code == 0)
+      - At least 1 sample is generated
+      {% if force_think_token %}- ALL samples have `<think>` and `</think>` tags (MANDATORY){% else %}- ALL samples contain reasoning content (not just direct answers){% endif %}
+      - Data format is correct (Alpaca format with instruction/output)
+
+    - **Reject (false)** if ANY of these:
+      - Script fails to run (exit_code != 0)
+      - Zero samples are generated
+      {% if force_think_token %}- **ANY sample missing `<think>` or `</think>` tags (HARD FAIL)**{% else %}- **ANY sample missing reasoning content (just direct answer)**{% endif %}
+      - Data format is fundamentally broken
+      - **Data does NOT match task description requirements**
+
+    - **Do NOT reject** for:
+      - Low sample count in debug mode (expected)
+      - Moderate quality variations in individual samples
+      - Length distribution not matching ideal patterns
+      - High filtering rate (script doing its job)
+  
+    ## Important Note
+    - Do not summarize the code into your feedback and DO NOT copy the task description also. Only provide new insights based on your evaluation.
+    - If you think the current logging information is not sufficient to find out the issues, please specify what additional logging information is needed in your feedback and put this information in 'code' block. The user will add further provide you the additional logging information in the next iteration.

+    以下环境变量已由框架设置，代码中用 `os.environ["..."]` 读取：
+    - `MODEL_PATH`: 基础模型绝对路径（只读）
+    - `DATA_PATH`: 训练数据目录绝对路径（只读）
+    - `OUTPUT_DIR`: 模型输出目录绝对路径（`$WORKSPACE/output/`）
+    - `GRADING_SERVER_URL`: 评测服务地址（训练完后系统自动提交，代码不需要调用）
+
+    ## 框架: trl (版本 0.27+)
+
+    ## 可用算法
+    - **GRPO**: 推荐，只需 reward function，不需要预构建偏好对
+    - **DPO**: 需要 (prompt, chosen, rejected) 偏好对
+
+    ## API 要点
+
+    ### GRPOTrainer
+    ```python
+    from trl import GRPOConfig, GRPOTrainer
+
+    trainer = GRPOTrainer(
+        model=MODEL_PATH,               # 模型路径

+
+    ### reward function 签名（重要！）
+    ```python
+    def reward_fn(completions, answer, **kwargs):
+        # completions: list[str] - 模型生成的回复
+        # answer: list[str] - 数据集中的 answer 列（自动传入）
+        # kwargs: 数据集其他列（如 question）
+        return [float(...) for ...]  # 返回 reward 列表
+    ```
+
+    ### GRPOConfig 关键参数
+    - `num_generations`: 每个 prompt 采样次数，必须 >= 2
+    - `max_completion_length`: 生成最大长度
+    - `per_device_train_batch_size`: 批次大小
+
+    ## 输出要求
+    - 生成完整的 `main.py`，可直接运行
+    - 路径全部通过 `os.environ` 获取，**不要硬编码路径**
+    - 数据从 `$DATA_PATH` 下的 jsonl 文件加载
+    - 模型保存到 `$OUTPUT_DIR`（可用子目录如 `$OUTPUT_DIR/v1`）
+
+    ## 评测机制
+    训练完成后，系统自动将 `$OUTPUT_DIR` 下最新的模型提交到 Grading Server。
+    - 有模型 → 自动评测，返回 score
+    - 为空 → 跳过评测
+    代码只需负责训练和保存模型，**不需要**自行调用评测 API。
+
+    ## 代码模板
+    ```python
+    import os
+    MODEL_PATH = os.environ["MODEL_PATH"]
+    DATA_PATH = os.environ["DATA_PATH"]

+
+    The user has already proposed several hypotheses and conducted evaluations on them. This information will be provided to you. Your task is to analyze previous experiments, reflect on the decision made in each experiment, and consider why experiments with a decision of true were successful while those with a decision of false failed. Then, think about how to improve further — either by refining the existing approach or by exploring an entirely new direction.
+    If one exists and you agree with it, feel free to use it. If you disagree, please generate an improved version.
