docs: "How It Works" overview tying architecture to backtest results (P3.2)#63
Merged
Conversation
…lts (#58) Closes #58 (P3.2). A short, newcomer-friendly technical write-up of the OODA decision loop (aggregate → Bayesian prescreen → debate → risk gates → Kelly) and the closed calibration loop, ending with the honest out-of-sample backtest finding (no demonstrated alpha; +25.5% vs +351.7% buy-and-hold, 0/14) and a reproduce command. Separates what is real (the machinery) from what is unproven (the inputs). Linked from README + docs index. Note: a screen-recorded demo GIF still needs a manual capture — documented as a follow-up rather than fabricated. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Closes #58. A short, newcomer-friendly technical write-up of the OODA decision loop (aggregate → Bayesian prescreen → bull/bear debate → risk gates → Kelly sizing) and the closed calibration loop, ending with the honest out-of-sample backtest (no demonstrated alpha — +25.5% vs +351.7% buy-and-hold, 0/14) and a reproduce command. Clearly separates what is real (the machinery) from what is unproven (the inputs). Linked from README + docs index.
A screen-recorded demo GIF still needs a manual capture — noted as a follow-up rather than fabricated. Docs-only; simulation-only project, not investment advice.
