Rules summary (frozen 2026-09-17)

PHASE 2A: any Tier 1 gate latched hot AND ≥2 Tier 2 confirmations latched hot. ARMED: a Tier 1 latch hot without the quorum. PHASE 1: otherwise. PHASE 2B: 2A plus the manual fed-dots rollover flag (config.json).
Exits from 2A: HY < 50d SMA (≈309 bps) ×3 sessions · time stop 23/60 · SPHB/SPLV above 50d SMA (1.959).
Full ruleset, backtest, and the design-contamination disclosure: backtest v3. v3/v4 were designed after observing v2's 2021–2026 out-of-sample failure, so historical results on that window are illustrative only — the true test is forward performance from 2026-09-17.
Fail-safe data handling: a series that fails to load never counts as triggered and is listed under "errors" in status.json. The ISM leg is inactive (ISM withdrew the series from FRED).
