Reproduce this arm

$ uv run python scripts/build_compare_fixture.py
wrote examples/fomc_blackout_compare/results.json (15 arms)
wrote examples/fomc_blackout_compare/results_multi_seed.json (15 arms × 5 seeds)

The fixture builder holds the pinned config (seed 7, 200 bars, FOMC vol multiplier 3.0000, FOMC drift 50.0000 bps) and re-walks every arm. The Python drift test asserts bytewise equality on every CI run, so the numbers on this page match what a reader gets when they regen.
