03 / Boundary conditions
Constraints
- C01
Backtests must resist overfitting and measure robustness.
- C02
Performance-critical paths must respect latency and throughput constraints.
- C03
Risk constraints and decision paths must remain explicit.
04 / Decision path
Architecture
Select a signal node to inspect its operating principle.
- Research dataBuild repeatable feature inputs.
- BacktestingModel risk constraints explicitly.
- EvaluationMeasure robustness and resist overfitting.
- Rust servicesHarden performance-critical paths.
05 / Engineering choices
Key decisions
- D1Use constraint-aware simulation primitives in backtesting engines.
- D2Use Rust where performance or safety is non-negotiable.
- D3Prefer composable primitives over giant one-off systems.
06 / Proof discipline
Evaluation
- Measure robustness, not just returns.
- Use repeatable research harnesses for signal evaluation.
- Trace every decision path for observability and auditability.
07 / Scope
Ownership
Research harness, backtesting primitives, and performance-oriented service engineering
- O01
Data ingestion and feature pipelines
- O02
Repeatable research and backtesting harnesses
- O03
Rust services for performance- or safety-critical paths
08 / Explicit compromises
Trade-offs
- Prefer robustness evidence over headline returns.
- Use Rust selectively where performance or safety justifies the boundary.
