- Add run_rolling_backtest tool for N consecutive weekly backtests
- Add max_passes support for optimization to cap genetic passes
- Kill stale MT5/agent processes before optimization launch
- Auto-parse optimization results on status poll when process completes
- Fix XML namespace for SpreadsheetML parsing
- Change optimization model from 4 to 1 for better accuracy
- Persist completion results to job metadata
- fix: inactivity watchdog now waits 30s for HTML report then kills
terminal64.exe unconditionally — ShutdownTerminal=1 does not cause
MT5 to exit on Wine/macOS; relying on natural exit caused all runs
to fall back to journal extraction
- fix: tester agent log deduplication — each deal is written twice in
the log; use HashSet to skip already-seen deal numbers
- fix: position tracker for entry direction inference — infer "in"/"out"
from per-symbol signed lot accumulation instead of guessing
- fix: is_closed_trade() no longer gates on profit!=0.0 — journal deals
have profit=0.0 legitimately; the old gate hid all 140 deals from
list_deals
- fix: log file selection priority — prefer Agent-127.0.0.1 over
Agent-0.0.0.0 (startup-only log), tiebreak by file size
- feat: launch_backtest default shutdown=true; inactivity_kill_secs
default 120s exposed as tool parameter
- feat: report DB stores deals in SQLite; analytics resolve by
report_id / report_dir / latest
Verified: 1-month DPS21/XAUUSD.cent/M5 backtest produces full HTML
report with all metrics (win_rate=70%, profit_factor=0.77, sharpe=-3.61,
max_dd=6.93%) and all 17 analytics tools returning real data.

On the first tool call of each session, a background task fires once
and fetches the latest release tag from the GitHub API (5 s timeout).
The result is cached in a static OnceLock for the lifetime of the
process — no repeated network calls.
check_update: returns cached result instantly, or fetches on demand
if the background task hasn't completed yet.
update: downloads the latest tarball for the current platform, extracts
the binary, and atomically replaces the running executable via a
temp-file rename. Requires MCP reconnect to activate new version.
Platform support: macos-aarch64, macos-x86_64, linux-x86_64.
Unsupported platforms return a build-from-source hint.
Tool count: 87 → 89. README and MCP_TOOLS.md updated.

High Priority Tools:
- check_symbol_data_status: validate symbol history data availability
- get_backtest_history: list all backtest results for EA/symbol
- compare_backtests: side-by-side comparison of multiple backtests
Medium Priority Tools:
- init_project: scaffold new MQL5 project with templates (scalper/swing/grid)
- validate_ea_syntax: pre-compile syntax checking
- check_mt5_status: check MT5 terminal readiness
Low Priority Tools:
- create_set_template: generate .set files from EA inputs
- export_report: export reports to CSV/JSON/Markdown
Other Changes:
- Consolidate config into src/models/config.rs, delete src/config.rs
- Add CurrentAccount with UTF-16LE parsing for common.ini
- Add BacktestPreflight struct for pre-flight checks
- Update backtest handler with active account context
- Update list_symbols to filter by active server
Total tools: 57
MT5 binaries (MetaEditor64.exe, metatester64.exe, terminal64.exe) are all
GUI applications with no command-line data export capability.
Removed:
- export_ohlc - Cannot read proprietary .hst binary format
- export_ticks - Cannot read proprietary .ticks binary format
- list_available_data - Only scanned directories, didn't export
Total tools: 46 → 43
Alternative for data export:
1. Use MT5 History Center GUI → Export
2. Create MQL5 script using CopyRates()/CopyTicks() → FileWrite
3. Run the MQL5 script inside MT5 terminal
**New Tools:**
- export_ohlc: Export OHLC bar data from MT5 history to CSV/JSON
- export_ticks: Export tick data from MT5 tick database to CSV/JSON
- list_available_data: List available OHLC and tick data in MT5
**Implementation:**
- definitions/data.rs: Tool schemas for data export
- handlers/data.rs: Handlers that scan MT5 directories:
- history/*.hst files (OHLC)
- Tester/cache/* (cached data)
- Bases/* (tick data)
- Provides guidance on how to export since MT5 uses proprietary binary formats
- Includes MQL5 script template for programmatic export
**Note:** MT5 uses proprietary .hst and .ticks binary formats.
Direct export requires MQL5 script using CopyRates()/CopyTicks().
