feat: stable MT5Client public API and infrastructure layer (#30)

* feat: add stable MT5Client public API and infrastructure layer

Introduce a reusable public API for downstream trading applications:

- MT5Client as the primary client abstraction with order_check/order_send
- schemas module with DataKind contracts, validation, and normalization
- converters, exceptions, retry, and storage facade modules
- CLI order commands now route through MT5Client
- connected_client made public; retry logic centralized
- Contract tests for API surface, schemas, and storage round-trips
- README and docs updated with Python API usage examples

* fix: correct time coercion, broker-safe symbols, and execution docs

- Normalize MT5 time columns with correct second/millisecond units
- Coerce all present known MT5 time fields, including optional order times
- Preserve broker symbol casing in normalize_symbol()
- Document order_send() as a live execution primitive with clear scope boundaries
- Add contract tests for timestamp and symbol normalization behavior

[![CI/CD](https://github.com/dceoy/mt5cli/actions/workflows/ci.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/dceoy/mt5cli/actions/workflows/ci.yml)
Command-line tool for exporting MetaTrader 5 data to CSV, JSON, Parquet, and SQLite3.
Generic MT5 data and execution infrastructure for Python applications. Export from the CLI or import a small, stable Python API in downstream packages.
Built on top of [pdmt5](https://github.com/dceoy/pdmt5), a pandas-based data handler for MetaTrader 5.
## Architecture
- **pdmt5** — canonical MT5 client, DataFrame/trading primitives, and MT5 constant parsing (`TIMEFRAME_*`, `COPY_TICKS_*`, order types).
- **mt5cli** — CLI commands, CSV/JSON/Parquet/SQLite export, SQLite history collection, rate views, and local batch/automation SDK helpers built on pdmt5.
- **mt5cli** — public `MT5Client` API, standardized dataset schemas, storage helpers, CLI commands, and SQLite history collection built on pdmt5.
- **mt5api** — sibling HTTP adapter for remote MT5 access; not a dependency of mt5cli.

## Usage
## Python API (downstream packages)
Import `MT5Client` for generic MT5 data access, schema normalization, and optional order primitives. `Mt5CliClient` remains available as a backward-compatible alias.
```python
from datetime import UTC, datetime
from pathlib import Path
from mt5cli import (
DataKind,
Dataset,
MT5Client,
build_config,
collect_history,
export_dataframe,
mt5_session,
normalize_dataframe,
update_history_with_config,
)
# Persistent session for multiple calls
with mt5_session(build_config(login=12345, server="Broker-Demo")) as client:
rates = client.copy_rates_range(
"EURUSD",
timeframe="H1",
date_from="2024-01-01",
date_to="2024-02-01",
)
positions = client.positions()
check = client.order_check({"action": 1, "symbol": "EURUSD", "volume": 0.1})
# Normalize MT5 frames to the public schema contract before storage
closed_rates = normalize_dataframe(
rates, DataKind.rates, symbol="EURUSD", timeframe="H1"
)
export_dataframe(closed_rates, Path("rates.csv"), "csv")
# Bulk SQLite history (same behavior as collect-history CLI command)
collect_history(
Path("history.db"),
symbols=["EURUSD"],
date_from=datetime(2024, 1, 1, tzinfo=UTC),
date_to=datetime(2024, 2, 1, tzinfo=UTC),
datasets={Dataset.rates, Dataset.history_deals},
)
# Incremental append for automated pipelines
update_history_with_config(
output="history.db",
symbols=["EURUSD"],
config=build_config(login=12345),
)
```
Schema contracts live in `mt5cli.schemas` (`DataKind`, `validate_schema`, `normalize_dataframe`). Storage helpers are re-exported from `mt5cli.storage` and the package root.
`MT5Client.order_send()` is a live execution primitive: it can place real trades on the connected account. mt5cli does not implement strategy logic, signal generation, backtesting, or optimization — downstream applications must gate live execution explicitly.

- **Throttled history updates**: use `ThrottledHistoryUpdater` to wrap `update_history()` with a minimum `interval_seconds` between successful runs (monotonic clock). Call `should_update()` / `update(client, symbols)` from an application loop; errors propagate by default, or pass `suppress_errors=True` to swallow recoverable `Mt5*Error`, `sqlite3.Error`, `ValueError`, `OSError`, and MT5 client capability errors for history API methods without advancing the throttle (other `AttributeError` / `TypeError` values always propagate).
- **Trading session helpers**: use `mt5_trading_session()` for a trading-capable `pdmt5.Mt5TradingClient` that initializes/logs in via `Mt5Config.path` and always shuts down safely. Pair with `detect_position_side()`, `calculate_margin_and_volume()`, and `determine_order_limits()` for generic position and sizing utilities. The read-only `mt5_session()` / `Mt5CliClient` SDK is unchanged.
- **Granularity-keyed rate loading**: `load_rate_series_by_granularity()` builds targets with `build_rate_targets()`, loads them with `load_rate_series_from_sqlite()`, and returns a mapping keyed by `(symbol | None, granularity_name)` such as `("EURUSD", "M1")` to reduce downstream boilerplate.
- **MT5 session helper**: use the `mt5_session()` context manager to attach to (or, when `Mt5Config.path` is set, launch) an MT5 terminal, log in, and yield a connected `Mt5CliClient` that shuts down on exit.

- **Recent ticks and margins**: `recent_ticks()` and `minimum_margins()` SDK helpers (and matching CLI commands) cover common downstream read-only queries.
