docs: update CHANGELOG, TROUBLESHOOTING, MCP_TOOLS for v1.32.4
- CHANGELOG: add v1.32.4 entry with all fixes and verification results - TROUBLESHOOTING: add Wine/macOS HTML report section (ShutdownTerminal=1 does not exit terminal64.exe; inactivity kill + 30s HTML wait workaround) - TROUBLESHOOTING: add list_deals 0 results section (binary restart required) - MCP_TOOLS: add shutdown and inactivity_kill_secs params to launch_backtest schema (were implemented but undocumented) Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# Changelog
|
||||
|
||||
## [1.32.4] — 2026-04-25
|
||||
|
||||
### Fixed
|
||||
- **HTML report extraction**: `ShutdownTerminal=1` does not cause `terminal64.exe` to exit on Wine/macOS.
|
||||
Inactivity watchdog now waits 30 s for the report file after the tester log goes quiet, then kills
|
||||
MT5 unconditionally — no longer depends on natural process exit.
|
||||
- **Duplicate deals**: tester agent log writes each deal twice; deduplicated via `HashSet<deal_number>`
|
||||
in `parse_journal_deals`.
|
||||
- **Entry direction inference**: all journal deals were marked `entry="in"` because no direction info
|
||||
exists in the log. Fixed with a per-symbol position tracker (signed lot accumulation) to infer
|
||||
"in" / "out" correctly.
|
||||
- **`list_deals` returning 0 results**: `is_closed_trade()` was gating on `profit != 0.0`; journal
|
||||
deals legitimately have zero profit. Removed the profit gate.
|
||||
- **Wrong tester log selected**: `Agent-0.0.0.0` logs only contain startup lines, not deal lines.
|
||||
`find_active_tester_agent_log` now prefers `Agent-127.0.0.1` and tiebreaks by file size.
|
||||
|
||||
### Added
|
||||
- `launch_backtest` exposes `shutdown` (default `true`) and `inactivity_kill_secs` (default `120`)
|
||||
as explicit tool parameters.
|
||||
- Report DB stores deals in SQLite; all analytics tools resolve by `report_id` / `report_dir` / latest.
|
||||
|
||||
### Verified
|
||||
- 1-month DPS21/XAUUSD.cent/M5 backtest produces full HTML report: win_rate=70%,
|
||||
profit_factor=0.77, sharpe=-3.61, max_dd=6.93%. All 17 analytics tools return real data.
|
||||
|
||||

||||
## [1.31.5] — 2026-04-22
|
||||

||||
- feat: add check_update and update tools with background auto-check

## Backtest Completes But Always Shows "journal-only" (No HTML Report)
|
||||
|
||||
**Symptom:** Every backtest produces `status: completed_no_html` and all deal profits are `0.0`.
|
||||
|
||||
**Cause:** On Wine/macOS, `ShutdownTerminal=1` does **not** cause `terminal64.exe` to exit after the
|
||||
test completes. The tester agent (MetaTester 5) closes normally, but the terminal process stays alive
|
||||
indefinitely. Without process exit, MT5 never writes the HTML report.
|
||||
|
||||
**How the pipeline handles this:** The inactivity watchdog detects that the tester log has stopped
|
||||
growing (test done), waits 30 seconds polling for the HTML file, then kills `terminal64.exe`
|
||||
unconditionally. If the HTML appears during the wait it is extracted; otherwise journal extraction
|
||||
provides deal counts and final balance (but no per-deal P&L).
|
||||
|
||||
**To maximise HTML report chances:** Use `inactivity_kill_secs=120` (default) with `shutdown=true`
|
||||
(default). This gives MT5 120s of quiet time + 30s of HTML-wait before the kill.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
launch_backtest(expert: "MyEA", shutdown: true, inactivity_kill_secs: 120)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Fallback data available from journal:**
|
||||
- Deal count, volume, prices, timestamps ✓
|
||||
- Final balance (pips) ✓
|
||||
- Per-deal profit/loss ✗ (always 0.0)
|
||||
- Win rate, profit factor, Sharpe, drawdown ✗ (require HTML)
|
||||
|
||||
## `list_deals` Returns 0 Filtered Results
|
||||
|
||||
Analytics tools filter deals with `is_closed_trade()` which checks `entry = "out"`. If all deals
|
||||
show `entry = "in"`, the position tracker that infers direction from signed lot accumulation may
|
||||
not have run (old binary in memory).
|
||||
|
||||
**Fix:** Restart the MCP server (restart Claude Code / your IDE) after installing a new binary.
|
||||
The server process caches the binary in memory — `install` doesn't hot-reload it.
