Find out whether the retreat-cancel wrapper adds to this network's two best Prediction Market files, so we can submit the better one to Paradigm's board (https://www.paradigm.xyz/puzzles/prediction-market-challenge). We are 2nd at 110.21 (imd.fun swarm #1042), 1st is 110.69. #1042 is one of two files from goal 253f3b6a, m-plus-a or m-plus-b; nobody knows which.

Retreat-cancel (a wrapper appended to a file) gained +0.37 (se 0.12, 1,000 fresh seeds, worst single run -57.8) over the older m-all file. This goal measures it on m-plus-a and on m-plus-b, ten blocks of 500 fresh seeds each, every seed reported, so the gain, its standard error and its worst runs are all known before anyone submits.

Simulator: https://github.com/danrobinson/prediction-market-challenge at commit b244530ee2a6247b5f930830eeca9dd950da0e7e.

  2. Working7 agents, 3 silent for over 10 min
    1. rc-on-b-08Agent #1513357 of 500 pairs are complete, with no failures. The provisional mean is +0.6328. At the current rate, the remaining simulations should take about six minutes.Brewing…
      1. 244 of 500 pairs are complete without failures. The provisional mean is +0.6160.
      2. The run is past halfway: 266 pairs are complete without failures. The provisional mean is +0.5817 with standard error 0.1301; the remaining 234 pairs are still required.
      3. 290 pairs are complete without failures. The provisional mean is +0.6509. Recent seeds widened the paired-difference range to −14.6267 through +25.7703.
      4. 311 of 500 pairs are complete, with no failures. The provisional mean is +0.6778. The saved results include retail and arbitrage edges for the component comparisons.
      5. 334 pairs are complete without failures. The provisional mean difference is +0.6527.
      6. 357 of 500 pairs are complete, with no failures. The provisional mean is +0.6328. At the current rate, the remaining simulations should take about six minutes.
    2. rc-on-a-06Agent #711365 pairs are complete. A fresh scan of all saved records found no failures and no differences on spreads 1 or 4.Plotting a course…
      1. 262 pairs are complete, with no failures. All four spread groups are represented, so the output will include statistics for each one.
      2. 280 pairs are complete, with no failures reported.
      3. 300 of 500 pairs are complete. The raw records retain every gain and loss at full precision; the final JSON will include all seeds and the five worst and best differences.
      4. 320 pairs are complete, with no failures reported.
      5. 340 pairs are complete. There are 160 left before the full-block checks and JSON export.
      6. 365 pairs are complete. A fresh scan of all saved records found no failures and no differences on spreads 1 or 4.
    3. rc-on-b-03Agent #1578Chunk 1 done, no failures. Now chunk 2.Connecting dots…
      1. rate limit cleared
      2. Hashes match. Now build CANDIDATE = BASE + (RC with N's prefix removed).
      3. Candidate hash matches. Now clone the simulator repo.
      4. Good, matches the brief's API. Let's check engine.run() result fields and loader.load_strategy_factory.
      5. Now write the harness script for the 500-seed block 706000-706499.
      6. Chunk 1 done, no failures. Now chunk 2.
    4. rc-on-a-10Agent #1480480 pairs have finished. Only seeds 704980–704999 remain.Sifting…
      1. 340 pairs are complete. No run has reported a failure; BASE still runs before CANDIDATE for each seed using the same sampled configuration.
      2. 374 pairs are complete. The interim mean is +0.4229 with standard error 0.0855, and there are still no failures.
      3. 400 pairs are complete, leaving 100. The result and sources files are within their size limits so far.
      4. 420 pairs have finished. The remaining 80 will use the same unmodified strategies and simulator.
      5. 450 pairs are complete. After the last 50, I’ll validate seed coverage, statistics, extremes, source quotes, and JSON sizes.
      6. 480 pairs have finished. Only seeds 704980–704999 remain.
    5. rc-on-b-10Agent #343Seeds are independent, so I'll run 8 separate serial processes over disjoint ranges.
      1. cloning the base repository
      2. running claude
      3. claude reports claude-sonnet-5-5
      4. rate limit cleared
      5. Hashes all match. Now the runner.
      6. Seeds are independent, so I'll run 8 separate serial processes over disjoint ranges.
