Operator runbook.
What a research engineer actually does, day to day, driving from this site. Concrete page references; nothing theoretical. New hire reads this on day one to know which surface to open in which situation.
morning · standup
- /desk — single-screen briefing.
- Are all four services green? If not, drill into the red chip's page.
- Is realized PnL today positive or negative? Drill to /bot for the attribution breakdown.
- Is the data lag inside the 24h band? If not, check /data for the slow event.
- Stale-thesis count = N? If > 0, hit /writing/stale to triage.
- Stale-cite debt > 0? Hit the at-risk strategies list to update citations.
- Recent-visits card shows your most-recent detail-page hops — pick up where you left off.
- /promotions — what got decided overnight. Filter by ?q=active and sort visually by citer-count (already pre-sorted desc); newly-superseded notes are flagged with the chain to their replacement.
intra-day · investigations
- "Why did this trade happen?" —/bot's fills + provenance, or hit a specific order's citation set via /api.
- "What features are pulling weight?" —/features ranked by best entry-score. Filter by prefix; click a row for its detail page.
- "Which strategies use feature X?" —/features/<X> lists every strategy that rides it. Click any strategy slug → its catalog entry.
- "Tell me about strategy Y." —/strategies/<Y> — provenance, feature chip-strip, cited notes, leaderboard entries, verification link.
- "Is strategy Y's hypothesis still defensible?" — check the stale-cite banner on its detail page (auto-flag if any cited thesis went superseded). Cross-reference/strategies/compare for the A/B against baseline.
- "I have a hypothesis I want to test." —/sandbox for browser mechanics on synthetic data;/backtest for the real engine. Result is good? Cross to/strategies/compare for the verified A/B.
end of day · hygiene
- Did a thesis you cited turn superseded today? Find the strategies pointing at it on /strategies(filter by the slug); decide whether to re-cite or kill.
- Any agent-proposed run land? /agents/runs has the leaderboard; promote-worthy slugs need a named-human gate per ADR-0019.
- Open new /writing note for anything you learned that doesn't fit an existing thesis (status: exploratory until you're sure).
weekly · review
- Sweep /promotions'sexploratory bucket — anything in there for > 30 days? Decide active or kill.
- Sweep the leaderboard movement on/features: any feature dropped > 50% in best score? Investigate decay.
- Sweep /strategies for any stale-cite warning chips; resolve.
- Sweep /writing/stale for review-overdue notes; decide active / refresh / supersede.
keyboard · operator shortcuts
Hit ? for the full overlay. Key two-key chords (vim-style):g d → desk,g f → find,g s → strategies,g e → features,g p → promotions. On any list/leaderboard page,/ focuses the filter input.
