--- type: analysis title: "Pokémon TCG AI Battle — Repository Timeline" description: "Semantic timeline of the pokemon-tcg repository reconciled with the wiki: from the MLX handoff through the sidecar pivot, Parquet, curriculum incidents, rating and ETL work, the August 14 blueprint/handoff wave and the current develop snapshot." tags: [pokemon-tcg, timeline, git-history, mlx-migration, phases, changelog, provenance] timestamp: "2026-08-15T18:12:00-03:00" --- # Pokémon TCG AI Battle — Repository Timeline ## Purpose Chronological reading of the `~/workdir/pokemon-tcg` repository history. The current verified snapshot is 144 reachable commits on `develop`, from 2026-07-25 through `20d7d0d` on 2026-08-14. The earlier count of 147 is retained only as a dated historical snapshot and is not reproducible at the current HEAD. This page is not a raw `git log` dump: each phase explains the concrete diff and links to the Wiki page that records its evidence boundary. Provenance: `git log --all` in the pokemon-tcg repository at the referenced dates. Every hash below is a real commit — click it in `gitk`/`git show` to see the diff. ## Timeline ### Phase 0 — Handoff (2026-07-25) The MLX handoff workspace is created and the vendored PyTorch reference is committed. The published implementation plan (Phases A–F) is added as `TASK.md`. ```text 1f80640 2026-07-25 chore: initialize MLX handoff workspace b0462e1 2026-07-25 docs: vendor PyTorch reference project dfffee7 2026-07-25 chore: add implementation plan for MLX migration (Phases A–F) ``` Reference wiki: [[pokemon_tcg_mlx_migration]] (the migration contract this executes). ### Phase A — Canonical MLX contract (2026-07-25) Centralized token schema, fixed a semantic collision in the opponent-unit token type, versioned architecture config in every checkpoint, added a synthetic dataset generator for smoke tests, and verified the whole contract with an integration test. ```text 517ee0f feat(A.1): centralize token-type schema in rl/token_schema.py 704b127 fix(A.2): correct opp unit token-type collision in MLX policy 596643a feat(A.3): versioned architecture config in checkpoints 3e4da66 feat(A.4): synthetic dataset generator for smoke tests 9422dad test(A.5): Phase A integration — canonical contract verified ``` Wiki: [[pokemon_tcg_mlx_migration]] Phase A. ### Phase B — Semantic P0 fixes (2026-07-25) Two commits closed the six B-tier semantic bugs identified in the migration handoff: additive attention mask (replacing the boolean), MHA bias parity with the PyTorch reference, `padding_idx=0` semantics, static-table immutability, categorical value expected-value output, and a proper cross-entropy validation loss (replacing the earlier `log(raw_logit)`). ```text 2daf8be fix(B.1-B.3): additive attention mask, MHA bias, padding_idx=0 0d1e5f4 fix(B.4-B.6): static table immutability, categorical value, proper CE loss ``` Wiki: [[pokemon_tcg_mlx_migration]] Phase B and [[pokemon_tcg_agent_architecture]]. ### Phase C — FP16-native trainer (2026-07-25) One squashed commit landed the FP16 model + FP16 data path with FP32 loss, reductions, accumulation and optimizer moments; gradient accumulation with post-accumulation clip and single optimizer step per microbatch group; complete checkpoint payload with model, optimizer state, arch config, scheduler position, seed, and dataset manifest. ```text 9e92d1d feat(C): FP16-native trainer with gradient accumulation and complete checkpoints ``` Wiki: [[pokemon_tcg_mlx_migration]] Phase C, [[pokemon_tcg_training_pipeline]] (current state). ### Phase D — Data compaction, episode metadata, val split (2026-07-25) Option-bucket compaction (finite compiled shapes for the option surface), an `episode_meta` sidecar recording `episode_id`/`side`/`step_id`/`new_episode`/etc., and an episode-level val split so train and val are episode-disjoint by construction. ```text 277a5b5 feat(D): option compaction, episode metadata, episode-level val split ``` Wiki: [[pokemon_tcg_mlx_migration]] Phase D. The `episode_meta.npy` sidecar mentioned here is later absorbed into the Parquet row schema — see 2026-08-03 below. ### Package structure, config module, data manager (2026-07-26) Codebase becomes an installable package with entrypoints (`tcg-train`, `tcg-build-bc`, `tcg-evaluate`, `tcg-tournament`, `tcg-build`, `tcg-data`, `tcg-dashboard`). A centralized `TrainConfig` dataclass + `configs/train_config.json` / `train_config.schema.json` land. Config-driven pipeline with smoke/staging/train configs. ```text c2d9937 chore: proper package structure with pyproject entrypoints 2e8fd34 feat: centralized config module + Kaggle data manager with entrypoints a853c13 feat: config-driven pipeline with smoke/staging/train configs ``` Wiki: [[pokemon_tcg_train_config_reference]]. ### Phase E and F — MLX agent, autoregressive multi-select, TBPTT (2026-07-26) Phase E lands the MLX-only inference agent with autoregressive multi-select and a submission-packaging script. Phase F adds the memory API with persistent scratch registers and TBPTT support (with subsequent fixes for episode/side boundaries, `value_and_grad` typing, `memory_in` broadcast, chunk-boundary reset). ```text 428be76 feat(E): MLX-only agent with autoregressive multi-select + submission script 75ae036 feat(F): memory API with persistent registers + TBPTT support d4da903 fix: use value_and_grad for TBPTT loss function f5a4bc8 fix: reset TBPTT memory at episode/side group boundaries 6f7067b fix: carry only last timestep memory between TBPTT chunks 85f65dd fix: broadcast memory_in to batch size in _encode b216f4f fix: read tbptt_chunk from config, not just CLI ``` Wiki: [[pokemon_tcg_tbptt_training_contract]], [[pokemon_tcg_torch_inference]] (for the autoregressive multi-select semantics, which persist into the current PyTorch runtime). ### Tournament + Elo split (2026-07-26) Tournament identifies deck IDs and saves card usage for local matches; card Elo computation is filtered by source (no more mixing `remote` and `local`); dashboard shows both remote and local; `INITIAL_ELO` corrected from 1000 to 600; tournament auto-updates remote card/deck data when missing. ```text c695840 fix: card Elo computation filters by source — no more remote/local mixing 910e9d0 fix: dashboard shows both remote and local card/deck Elo 15bf88e fix: INITIAL_ELO changed from 1000 to 600 033e64c fix: tournament identifies deck_ids and saves card_usage for local matches 8b63658 feat: tournament auto-updates remote card/deck data if missing ``` Wiki: [[pokemon_tcg_sqlite_schema_current]] (source enum), [[pokemon_tcg_tournament_system]]. ### Deck sweep, dashboard, replay viewer (2026-07-27) Tournament gains sweep-decks + vs-self mode always active; a dashboard-based deck builder ships with dual Elo view, strength estimation, deck comparison, and use-deck flow; a replay-visualization tool + schema handoff docs land. ```text 01cd7f1 feat: tournament sweep-decks and vs-self always active ba83af3 feat: dashboard deck builder — dual Elo, strength estimation, compare, use-deck 52678e2 feat: add replay visualization tool and schema documentation for game analysis 3cc581e feat: add handoff replay schema documentation and update game state tracking ``` Wiki: [[pokemon_tcg_tournament_system]] (sweep semantics), [[pokemon_tcg_dashboard_and_tournament]], [[pokemon_tcg_replay_data_model]]. ### Prospective planner era (2026-07-29) At the July 29 historical endpoint, the prospective (would-KO + RoPE-ND planner) sidecar was designed, built, wired into inference and stress-tested. This is a historical state, not the current runtime: the sidecar was removed by `a942373` on August 3 while the would-KO trio and several auxiliary ideas survived in the primary pipeline. Multiple commits made up that historical phase: fix temporal BC + self-contained inference; complete compact would-KO prospective pipeline; rebuild results DB from normalized replay evidence; ship PyTorch-only recurrent prospective inference; train temporal planner with bounded FP16 batches; parallelize prospective rollout generation; fix prospective reward balancing and action coverage; refresh the operational contract. ```text 939b57b fix temporal BC training and self-contained inference 2996583 complete compact would-ko prospective pipeline 5beaac9 rebuild results database from normalized replay evidence 45a6f43 ship pytorch-only recurrent prospective inference ca91b74 train temporal planner with bounded fp16 batches 770364b add real prospective RoPE-ND planner foundation acbbea0 parallelize prospective rollout generation 10c3750 fix prospective reward balancing and action coverage 98b906f docs: refresh pokemon operational contract 8aae2cb mlx b9c2154 almost there ``` The commits with informal messages (`"mlx"`, `"almost there"`) carry the plumbing that connected the planner to the trainer and to the inference agent. Wiki: [[pokemon_tcg_would_ko_prospective_search]] (would-KO stays; RoPE-ND and planner are historical), [[pokemon_tcg_prospective_v2]] (historical planner design). This whole direction gets rolled back in 2026-08-03 — see below. ### Corpus expansion (2026-07-31) ```text 99aa7ec expanded zips only for research ``` More Kaggle replay zips are downloaded into `data/bc_replay_zip/`. No code change; corpus grows. ### The pivot — sidecar removed, aux heads + meta features + Parquet (2026-08-03) The single most consequential commit in the timeline. The prospective sidecar (a separate second model) is **removed** in favor of integrated auxiliary heads on the primary model; per-row meta features (agent bucket, deck bucket, day scalar) are added; the dataset writer moves from `.npy` shards to day-partitioned Parquet. ```text a942373 sidecar removed, aux heads + meta features + parquet pipeline ``` Then the pipeline is smoke-validated end-to-end with strict semantics, competition-day feature, and streaming TBPTT that reads directly from Parquet without materializing. ```text 504118d smoke pipeline validated: strict semantics, competition_day, streaming TBPTT ``` Wiki: [[pokemon_tcg_parquet_dataset]] (current format), [[pokemon_tcg_agent_architecture]] (aux heads, meta buckets, day scalar), [[pokemon_tcg_data_pipeline]] (marked historical for the NPY era), [[pokemon_tcg_prospective_v2]] (marked historical for the sidecar design). ### Silent WIP (2026-08-04) ```text 29f5cb9 idk bro ``` Diff-only reading: intermediate plumbing between the Parquet landing and the KV cache landing. Not a semantic milestone. ### KV cache era (2026-08-06) Two large commits reshape data retention and instrumentation: ```text e772fe0 train loader: KV-style parquet cache, async prefetch, top-elo/per-day filters, tensorboard fa38caa train loader: hierarchical KV cache (hot/transient + SSD spill), opt-step protection, val streaming ``` The first commit introduces: - an in-process cache over decoded Parquet row groups (the "KV cache" naming), - a ThreadPoolExecutor prefetch worker (single, N+1 lookahead), - `--top-elo N` and `--max-rows-per-day N` filters, - full per-optimizer-step tensorboard instrumentation. The second commit replaces the flat cache with the three-tier hierarchical design (hot pinned / transient LRU / SSD spill), adds the `in_opt_step()` reentrant eviction suppression, and refactors val to stream through its own cache instance (eliminating the ~22 GiB val materialization). Wiki: [[pokemon_tcg_kv_cache_hierarchical]] (current design), [[pokemon_tcg_top_elo_curriculum_filter]] (the filter added here), [[pokemon_tcg_training_pipeline]] (tensorboard instrumentation). ### BC curriculum ablation suite (2026-08-06 to 2026-08-07) The `experiments/` directory convention and a resume-aware driver land: ```text bb72620 experiments: BC curriculum ablation suite + tournament JSON reports ``` This adds: - `experiments/bc_curriculum_suite.sh` — resume-aware, phased driver (train → per-run tournament → intra-suite round-robin → aggregate), - `--sweep-source {remote,local}`, multi-value `--opponent`, `--skip-baselines`, `--report-json` on `tournament.py`. Two follow-up fixes: ```text e8d6a4a experiments: purge KV cache SSD spill after each training run 853ab34 experiments: use bash arithmetic for-loop in round-robin ``` The first cleans the `.cache_spill/` directories that were filling the disk between runs (70 GiB accumulated across nine runs); the second replaces `$(seq A B)` with a C-style for-loop because macOS BSD `seq A B` with `A > B` emits a descending sequence instead of empty, causing one phantom self-pair matchup. Wiki: [[pokemon_tcg_bc_curriculum_ablation]] (full methodology and findings), [[pokemon_tcg_tournament_system]] (CLI additions). ### Config cleanup and docs (2026-08-07) Deprecated fields removed from the training config: - `--prefetch` / `prefetch` field — the pyarrow Scanner reads ahead intrinsically; cross-batch retention is the hierarchical KV cache's job. - `slab_rows` — the MLX trainer has no fixed-size mmapped slabs anymore; the Parquet row group is the physical I/O unit. - `model_dir` — unused. Along with a project CLAUDE.md phase log summarizing the current state: ```text 290d6f9 CLAUDE.md: current phase log — BC curriculum ablation complete, arch validated ``` Wiki: [[pokemon_tcg_train_config_reference]] (deprecations documented), [[pokemon_tcg_training_pipeline]] (canonical current pipeline page). ### The research and governance consolidation (2026-08-08 to 2026-08-13) The history between the August 7 ablation-suite cleanup and the August 14 handoff is not an empty gap. It contains the curriculum sweep orchestrator, the Stage 3 incident, the manuscript corpus, the local-rating and schema work, the sampling/ETL analysis and the first RoPEND/MoE blueprint. Several commits have informal subjects, so the semantic reading below is based on their file diffs rather than their messages alone. #### Curriculum orchestration and rule evolution ```text 00b3704 2026-08-08 aiaaaaaiaiaiaia cariok f90ac1e 2026-08-11 feat(curriculum): add 3-model 5-deck sweep orchestrator, ETA tracking, and atomic Elo updates 6dc5a0c 2026-08-11 docs: add dialectical pair programming directive to GEMINI.md 4844ef9 2026-08-11 docs: update GEMINI.md with current project state and communication directives 1545f48 2026-08-11 docs: add Zero Polling Directive to GEMINI.md c330547 2026-08-11 docs: systematic memory audit and ASD-STE100 rule refinement in GEMINI.md fccf2dd 2026-08-11 docs: holistic non-append-only synthesis of GEMINI.md memory rules ``` `f90ac1e` adds the executable curriculum-v1 sweep orchestration surface, including model/deck combinations, ETA reporting and atomic Elo updates. The `GEMINI.md` sequence records operating rules and memory-governance changes; it is project history and instruction provenance, not evidence that a new model architecture shipped. #### Stage 3, rating and manuscript layer ```text 86aa528 2026-08-12 stage 3 torneio 0dec40f 2026-08-12 maths fixes 26b1e87 2026-08-12 best deck so far d9c67a7 2026-08-12 docs and mini fixies on training 89deb7d 2026-08-12 diretrizes novas e changes no elo local 9bc5021 2026-08-12 idk - stages? ``` The `86aa528` diff adds the Abelian-group Elo formulation, Stage 3 tournament changes and database/rating modifications. `0dec40f` changes the trainer's mathematical reduction path and is part of the later auxiliary-loss incident reconstruction. `26b1e87` changes the selected `agent/deck.csv`, preserving the “best deck” as an artifact choice rather than a model-architecture result. `d9c67a7` adds the integrated monograph and all nine manuscript chapters while also changing training and tournament code. `9bc5021` stores Stage 1–3 FP32 archives. These commits are why the manuscript, deck and loss narratives must be read as a coupled historical layer with separate implementation and evaluation evidence. #### Blueprint, schema and zero-trust ETL lineage ```text 459f9d6 2026-08-13 a lot of lot f697ce9 2026-08-13 before dawn 328d4f9 2026-08-13 idk bro, im tired eb83bef 2026-08-13 weel weel weeel weel weel 14ec607 2026-08-13 Yaaay dbf298a 2026-08-13 refactor(etl): 3-tier idempotency sync, bulk elo decoupling & katex directives ``` `459f9d6` adds the first Magnum Opus/MoE blueprint, validation probes, leaderboard/deck artifacts and strict-FP32-related checks. `f697ce9` introduces the separate RoPEND theory and stochastic-Elo documents. `328d4f9` adds the physical SQLite schema and rewrites catalog/ETL helpers. `eb83bef` adds ETL auditing, platform-coverage, timezone and normalization documents plus database rules. `14ec607` adds the `follow-me` rule and adjusts results/statistics behavior. `dbf298a` then records the explicit three-tier idempotency, bulk-Elo separation and KaTeX directive change. This phase is the bridge between implementation evidence and the later handoff. It contains real code and data changes, but the RoPEND/MoE material remains a blueprint until a live implementation path and acceptance evidence exist. ### Phase G — Handoff, blueprint and convergence wave (2026-08-13 to 2026-08-14) The project then moved from implementation-focused maintenance into a documented research handoff. The sequence added the ETL/idempotency and Elo maintenance edits, the master RFC, the Metanoia suite, PageRank/Abelian research, cross-harness transcript ledger, milestone blueprints, E2E test scaffolding and the Odyssey Diary. These artifacts describe intended gates and research direction; they do not prove that the proposed runtime exists. ```text dbf298a 2026-08-13 refactor(etl): 3-tier idempotency sync, bulk elo decoupling & katex directives 14ec607 2026-08-13 Yaaay 955149b 2026-08-14 docs: create comprehensive technical handoff RFC for multi-agent adversarial research cec2eab 2026-08-14 docs: add 3-level deep specifications for neural engine, dataset pipeline, empirical ablations & update master RFC c104f5b 2026-08-14 feat(metanoia): add 4-part metanoia suite, modernize skills & integrate provenance ledger into master RFC 41438ec 2026-08-14 docs(metanoia): add Spec 05 on HALT protocol, Jungian metanoia, hypersigils & Gemma 4 tokenization mechanics 4321ad2 2026-08-14 feat(wikifita): install wikifita skill, author Metanoia Spec 06 & update master RFC 936d301 2026-08-14 docs(pagerank): author PageRank & Abelian Graph Invariance monograph & update master RFC f988eb0 2026-08-14 feat(blueprints): commit multi-agent project blueprints, test infra & survey artifacts ea9317a 2026-08-14 chore(git): ignore all *.db, *.db-shm, and *.db-wal binaries; sync GEMINI.md state 12595d4 2026-08-14 docs: add cross-harness adaptation guide and complete transcript filesystem ledger a71318e 2026-08-14 docs: register sociological compute quota context and sovereign handoff horizon 20d7d0d 2026-08-14 docs: add AGENTS.md Odyssey Diary and multi-agent convergence contract ``` The current source-tree check after this wave finds no tracked RoPEND, MoE, vehicle-draft or Apex implementation. M1/M2/M3 gates remain pending or in progress in `.agents/`; M4/M5 remain planned in `PROJECT.md`. See [[pokemon_tcg_current_state_reconciliation]]. ## Low-signal commits and evidence boundary The repository contains additional informal commits between semantic milestones, including `1eb6129`, `71861bf`, `10421a7`, `9c955dd`, `1c828f8`, `831fdf1`, `dc43ec6`, `6b32768`, `5ac5277`, `a505d22`, `28c7008`, `fc8bdc1`, `6d1598a`, `15a5dda`, `398178b`, `b27d2ba`, `29f5cb9` and several August 12–13 operational snapshots. They remain reachable in the 144-commit history. Where their diffs are purely checkpoint, configuration, cleanup or transient experiment changes, this page groups them under the surrounding phase rather than inventing a semantic milestone from an informal commit subject. The rule is conservative: a low-information subject does not make the diff irrelevant, and a large diff does not make its proposal implemented. The detailed source map in [[pokemon_tcg_docs_corpus_provenance]] and the current reconciliation page provide the file-level join points. ## Cross-branch consolidation note The `git log --all` listing contains many pairs of adjacent commits with identical messages between 2026-07-26 and 2026-07-27: ```text 712c66a / 7d674e9 "chore: update training configuration parameters ..." 01cd7f1 / 715b854 "feat: tournament sweep-decks and vs-self always active" ba83af3 / 4ed530f "feat: dashboard deck builder — dual Elo ..." ... ``` These are the result of a merge from a parallel branch (`mlx-port` at the time) into the active line, preserving both sides of the branch history. The trees are equivalent per pair; the second hash exists so `git log --all` sees the branch pointer. Not a data-loss risk. ## Phases that landed vs the migration plan | Migration plan phase | Delivered | Live-state page | |---|---|---| | A — Canonical MLX contract | ✅ 2026-07-25 (commits `517ee0f–9422dad`) | [[pokemon_tcg_mlx_migration]] | | B — Semantic P0 fixes | ✅ 2026-07-25 (commits `2daf8be`, `0d1e5f4`) | [[pokemon_tcg_agent_architecture]] | | C — FP16 trainer | ✅ 2026-07-25 (`9e92d1d`) | [[pokemon_tcg_training_pipeline]] | | D — Data compaction + episode meta + val split | ✅ 2026-07-25 (`277a5b5`), absorbed into Parquet 2026-08-03 (`a942373`) | [[pokemon_tcg_parquet_dataset]] | | E — Inference semantics (full logs, autoregressive multi-select) | ✅ 2026-07-26 (`428be76`) | [[pokemon_tcg_torch_inference]] | | F — Minimal recurrence + TBPTT | ✅ 2026-07-26 (`75ae036` + fixes) | [[pokemon_tcg_tbptt_training_contract]] | | Post-plan: sidecar experiment | ✅ 2026-07-29, then ❌ removed 2026-08-03 (`a942373`) | [[pokemon_tcg_prospective_v2]] (historical) | | Post-plan: Parquet + aux heads + meta | ✅ 2026-08-03 (`a942373`, `504118d`) | [[pokemon_tcg_parquet_dataset]] | | Post-plan: hierarchical KV cache | ✅ 2026-08-06 (`fa38caa`) | [[pokemon_tcg_kv_cache_hierarchical]] | | Post-plan: BC curriculum ablation | ✅ 2026-08-06/07 (`bb72620`, `e8d6a4a`, `853ab34`) | [[pokemon_tcg_bc_curriculum_ablation]] | The six migration phases and the earlier post-plan experiments landed as recorded above. The later handoff wave is a separate planning and research layer. It must not be counted as delivery of the future RoPEND/MoE, elite-dataset, PageRank-isomorphism, 500-match or Apex acceptance gates. ## Where each wiki page draws its evidence | Wiki page | Anchor commits | |---|---| | [[pokemon_tcg_agent_architecture]] | Phase A+B (`517ee0f–0d1e5f4`), `a942373` (aux heads + meta), `75ae036` (scratch persistence) | | [[pokemon_tcg_training_pipeline]] | `9e92d1d` (historical FP16), `a942373` (parquet+aux), `fa38caa` (KV cache), `e772fe0` (tensorboard), `290d6f9` (phase log), `20d7d0d` (current FP32 reconciliation) | | [[pokemon_tcg_kv_cache_hierarchical]] | `e772fe0` (KV cache initial), `fa38caa` (hierarchical), `e8d6a4a` (spill cleanup) | | [[pokemon_tcg_parquet_dataset]] | `a942373` (parquet writer), `504118d` (streaming TBPTT reads) | | [[pokemon_tcg_sqlite_schema_current]] | `c695840` (source split), `033e64c` (deck IDs + card usage), `15bf88e` (initial elo), live `PRAGMA table_info` | | [[pokemon_tcg_tournament_system]] | `01cd7f1` (sweep), `bb72620` (JSON reports + multi-opponent + skip-baselines), `853ab34` (round-robin loop fix) | | [[pokemon_tcg_torch_inference]] | `428be76` (autoregressive multi-select), `45a6f43` (pytorch-only inference), `290d6f9` (contract snapshot) | | [[pokemon_tcg_top_elo_curriculum_filter]] | `e772fe0` (filter introduced), [[pokemon_tcg_bc_curriculum_ablation]] (findings) | | [[pokemon_tcg_bc_curriculum_ablation]] | `bb72620` (suite), `fa38caa` + `e8d6a4a` (cache stability during runs) | | [[pokemon_tcg_train_config_reference]] | Config series (`2e8fd34`, `cc1c90b`, `1424e33`), plus 2026-08-07 deprecation cleanup | | [[pokemon_tcg_tbptt_training_contract]] | `75ae036` (memory API), fixes `d4da903`, `f5a4bc8`, `6f7067b`, `b216f4f` | | [[pokemon_tcg_current_state_reconciliation]] | `20d7d0d` current source snapshot, `f988eb0` milestone scaffolding, `dbf298a`/`14ec607` ETL and rule maintenance | | [[pokemon_tcg_docs_corpus_provenance]] | `955149b` through `20d7d0d` handoff, manuscript, Metanoia, blueprint and transcript-ledger commits | | [[pokemon_tcg_stage3_training_failure_postmortem]] | `0dec40f` auxiliary-loss change, Stage 3/4 logs, `459f9d6` FP32 correction and Antigravity reports | | [[pokemon_tcg_implementation_specification]] | `05c4435` target services, deterministic workflows and acceptance contract; live status checked at `20d7d0d` | | [[pokemon_tcg_schema_evolution]] | `05c4435` current-versus-relational-v2 design; physical boundary checked against `rl/results_db.py` at `20d7d0d` | | [[pokemon_tcg_arena_future_architecture]] | `05c4435` synchronous arena and future application/worker seam; no distributed runtime at `20d7d0d` | | [[pokemon_tcg_entity_normalization]] | `eb83bef` heuristic document plus Antigravity scratch probes; no tracked production resolver | | [[pokemon_tcg_manuscript_chapter_lineage]] | `d9c67a7` nine chapters and integrated monograph, `cec2eab` empirical companion | ## Cross-references - [[pokemon_tcg_ai_battle]] — project hub - [[pokemon_tcg_mlx_migration]] — the migration contract this timeline executes - [[pokemon_tcg_training_pipeline]] — canonical current-state pipeline - [[pokemon_tcg_bc_curriculum_ablation]] — the ablation the recent commits produced - [[pokemon_tcg_docs_corpus_provenance]] — complete source-file and Git provenance map - [[pokemon_tcg_manuscript_chapter_lineage]] — chapter-level manuscript provenance - [[pokemon_tcg_entity_normalization]] — normalization analysis and uncertainty boundary - [[pokemon_tcg_glossary]] — vocabulary
