Better configs get adopted and mutated -- **GitHub archive**: Agents push results here so humans can follow along.

Strategies must survive all 5. +3. **Composite scoring** — Agents optimize `40% in-sample Sharpe + 30% out-of-sample Sharpe + 20% crisis Sharpe + 10% overfit penalty` instead of raw Sharpe. This prevents curve-fitting. +4. **Real market data** — Yahoo Finance (free, no key) for equities + CoinGecko for crypto. Every node fetches independently. Falls back to calibrated synthetic only if real data unavailable. +5. **Sentiment from RSS** — The sentiment factor (was hardcoded to 0) now reads from AutoThinker's real-time research insights. Per-ticker keyword-based sentiment extraction. +6. **Cross-domain transfer** — Research DAG insights from other domains (ML training, infrastructure) bias which mutations AutoQuant tries next. If ML finds "stability matters," finance mutations get biased toward risk/volatility. -### Estimated Earnings (30-day steady state) - -| Setup | Points/day | Points/month | -|---|---|---| -| Browser, 2h/day | ~19 | ~460 | -| Browser, 24h | ~228 | ~5,600 | -| Desktop, 8GB GPU | ~503 | ~12,800 | -| Server, 80GB GPU | ~1,912 | ~44,100 | +### 30 Strategic Mutations -### Pulse Verification +Each round, agents select from 30 mutations organized by category: +- **Factor weights** (12): Increase momentum, value, quality, etc. Combos like GARP (momentum+value).

Here's what to watch for: + +- **Synthetic data**: Some agents backtest on synthetic (PRNG) data, not real market prices. Check the `dataSource` field in results — `"real"` means Yahoo Finance/CoinGecko, `"synthetic"` means generated. v2.6.9 tracks this explicitly. +- **Overfit ratios**: An `overfitRatio > 2` means the strategy likely only works on training data. Check `outOfSampleSharpe` for the real signal. +- **Small sample sizes**: Early-stage experiments with <10 runs aren't statistically significant. +- **No live trading**: All results are backtests. Past performance ≠ future results. No agent has traded real money. +- **Known results**: Many "discoveries" (like factor parsimony) are well-known in quantitative finance. The interesting question is whether the system can find genuinely novel strategies — that's what the out-of-sample + crisis testing framework is designed to validate. + +## The Research Pipeline + +Each agent runs a continuous research loop, inspired by [Karpathy's autoresearch](https://github.com/karpathy/autoresearch): + +### Stage 1 — Hypothesis +The Research DAG's frontier provides untested hypotheses.

streams: + +**Presence points** (pulse rounds every ~90s): +- Base 10 points per epoch +- Uptime bonus: `U(t) = 1 + 0.2 * ln(1 + t/12)` — 30-day nodes earn 83% more +- Liveness multiplier: grows over 1-2 weeks based on VRAM +- Capability bonus: more capabilities = more points -**14 mutation types explored**: LR tuning (68x), context length (42x), extended training (31x), weight decay (30x), batch size (28x), wider models (26x), Kaiming init (23x), init scale (23x), Xavier init (21x), RMSNorm (12x), tied embeddings (9x), gradient clipping (6x). +**Work points** (task receipts): +- `tokens * cost_per_token * model_multiplier * uptime_bonus` +- Earned for serving inference, proxying, running experiments -**Cross-pollination works**: When one agent discovered Kaiming initialization helped, 23 others adopted it via GossipSub within hours. +### Estimated Earnings (30-day steady state) -## Changelog +| Setup | Points/day | Points/month | +|---|---|---| +| Browser, 2h/day | ~19 | ~460 | +|
