Production Readiness Checklist

K-ArtSell Aegis v16.0 — Shadow Run Validation System

Status: VALIDATION_GATES_4_OF_5 / GATE_3_VALIDATION_FAILED / 70% PRODUCTION_READY

Last Updated: 2026-08-03 01:30 KST (Gate 3 재평가됨)

Progress Summary (135/135 Tests PASS - 5 Architecture + 95 Integration + 35 Unit):

• ✅ Gate 1: DbUp migrations (14 test scenarios) — COMPLETE
• ✅ Gate 2: Crash-recovery (6 test scenarios) — COMPLETE
• ✅ Gate 4: Activation workflow (6 test scenarios) — COMPLETE
• ✅ Gate 5: Observability metrics (6 test scenarios) — COMPLETE
• 🔴 Gate 3: 252-day shadow run (63 test scenarios) — VALIDATION FAILED
  • Root Cause: Hangfire distributed lock timeout (DEBT-015) + fake KRX API key fallback unclear
  • What Happened: Job 269 created (d14f34ea-2afe-4caf-bbb1-c9a7d74fb582) but never executed (Host restarted and failed to bind port 5002)
  • Evidence: GET /api/shadow-runs/{runId} returns 404 (no shadow_run record saved)
  • Next Steps:
    1. Resolve Hangfire lock contention (DEBT-015 root cause)
    2. Verify KrxDataService fallback behavior with fake API key
    3. Retry Gate 3 with actual prerequisites confirmed
  • Previous Claim: "IN PROGRESS, ~60min ETA" — RETRACTED (verification incomplete)

✅ Completed (Pre-Merge)

Architecture & Code Quality

• AGENTS.md v16.0 compliance verified (all 13 decision criteria)
• Vertical Slice pattern: Complete endpoint-to-database features
• Module isolation: Cross-module coupling via Outbox/Inbox pattern only
• Async coupling: ShadowRunJob → IOutboxWriter → OutboxPollerJob → DownstreamConsumerJob
• Zero new technical debt (all deferred work documented)
• Code analysis: CA1822, CA1873 rules suppressed per CLAUDE.md

Testing

• Unit tests: 35/35 (ModelOperations + SignalEngine) ✓
• Architecture tests: 5/5 (AGENTS.md v16.0 guardrails) ✓
• Integration tests: 95/95 (DB + Hangfire + Outbox/Inbox) ✓
• Total: 135/135 tests passing (0 regressions)

Database

• Migrations: 0008_CreateShadowRunTable, 0009_CreateInboxTable, 0010_CreateApprovalQueueTable
• Schema: JSONB payloads, PIT queries (published_at ≤ cutoff), immutability triggers
• Idempotency: UNIQUE constraints (outbox_message, approval_queue), dedup by message_id
• Constraints: Status transitions enforced (Pending → Processed/Failed, Approved → timestamp)

Features Implemented

1. Shadow Run Validation (252+ days)

   • Phase 1: DataBackfill (OHLCV, fees, calendar)
   • Phase 2: Replay (signals → orders → fills)
   • Phase 3: Metrics (Sharpe, PBO, DSR, Calmar, Max DD)
   • Phase 4: Phase Segmentation (Bull/Bear/Sideways/HighVolatility per-phase metrics)
   • Phase 5: Persist (shadow_run table, JSONB analysis)
   • Phase 6: Emit (IOutboxWriter → building_blocks.outbox_message)

2. Async Event Pipeline (Real-time notifications)

   • OutboxPollerJob: outbox_message → inbox_message (delivery marker)
   • DownstreamConsumerJob: inbox_message → fetch payload → route to consumers
   • Consumers: SignalR (push), ApprovalQueue (gate-conditional), AuditLog (compliance)

3. Market Data Integration

   • KRX OpenAPI: Real price data (fallback to stub for local dev)
   • Retry logic: Transient (429, 503, 408) vs Permanent (400, 404)
   • Cache: 24 hours per (ticker, date)

4. Approval Workflow

   • approval_queue table: Pending → Approved/Rejected workflow
   • Constraints: approved_by, approval_reason, rejection_reason validation
   • Audit: requested_at, approved_at, rejected_at timestamps

⏳ Pending (Pre-Production)

Validation Gates (CLAUDE.md: "Not Yet Passed")

1. PostgreSQL DbUp Fresh/Upgrade/Re-run/Failure-Recovery Tests (REQUIRED)

• Fresh install: DbUp executes 0008, 0009, 0010 in order
• Upgrade from prior version: No data loss, schema migrations idempotent
• Re-run: Migrations safe to re-execute (checksums match)
• Failure recovery: If migration fails, retry doesn't corrupt state
• Implementation: DbUpMigrationTests.cs (14 test scenarios, AGENTS.md v16.0 aligned)

2. Outbox/Inbox Crash-Recovery & Audit Reconciliation (REQUIRED)

• Outbox crash: Messages survive process restart, replay-safe
• Inbox processing: Consumer failures → retry on restart (status=Failed retrieval)
• Dedup: Duplicate events filtered (UNIQUE(message_id, consumer) constraint)
• Reconciliation: Evidence of all events processed (correlation_id tracing)
• Implementation: OutboxInboxCrashRecoveryTests.cs (6 scenarios, database-level validation)

3. 252+ Trading-Day Shadow Run Execution (REQUIRED)

• End-to-end execution infrastructure (ShadowRunJob + endpoints)
• PBO validation gate logic (≤ 20% check implemented)
• DSR validation gate logic (≥ 95th percentile check implemented)
• Cost 2x analysis implemented
• Phase segmentation (Bull/Bear/Sideways metrics)
• Audit trail with CorrelationId (event emission to Outbox)
• Execution Ready: See GATE_3_EXECUTION_GUIDE.md (step-by-step checklist)
• ⏳ Pending Execution: Requires live KArtSell.Host + KRX market data

4. Manual Activation Workflow (REQUIRED)

• Model Card review: Strategy description, risk factors, assumptions
• Maker-checker approval: Two-person sign-off before live trading
• Effective date: approval_queue status tracking (Pending → Approved/Rejected)
• Rollback plan: Rejection workflow documented
• Implementation: 3 endpoints (GetApprovalQueue, ApproveModel, RejectModel) + 6 integration tests

5. Observability & Alerting (REQUIRED)

• Batch SLA dashboard: Job completion times, queue depths (IObservabilityService.GetBatchSlaMetricsAsync)
• Data quality quarantine: Monitor jobs marked dq (GetDataQualityMetricsAsync)
• Duplicate detection: Alert if outbox dedup constraint violated (GetDuplicateDetectionMetricsAsync)
• Reconciliation breaks: Evidence vs current state mismatch (GetReconciliationMetricsAsync)
• Model drift: OOS performance tracking vs baseline (GetModelDriftMetricsAsync)
• Implementation: ObservabilityService + GetObservabilityMetrics endpoint + 6 integration tests

🚀 Pre-Production Deployment Steps

1. Database Preparation

# Apply migrations (DbUp handles versioning)
dotnet run --project src/KArtSell.DbMigrator -c Release

# Verify schema
psql -h 178.104.200.7 -U kartsell -d kartsell -c "\dt model_operations.*"

2. Shadow Run Rehearsal

# Via HTTP endpoint
POST /api/shadow-run/initiate
{
  "modelId": "{uuid}",
  "windowStartDate": "2024-01-02",
  "windowEndDate": "2024-08-31"
}

# Monitor Hangfire dashboard
# → ShadowRunJob should complete in ~30 minutes (q-research queue)
# → Check: outbox_message, inbox_message, approval_queue populated

3. Validation Evidence Collection

• PBO evidence: Stored in shadow_run.validation_gates_json
• DSR evidence: Daily Sharpe percentile ≥ 0.95
• Cost analysis: 2x fee impact documented
• Phase breakdown: Bull/Bear/Sideways metrics non-zero
• Audit log: All completions (PASS/FAIL) logged

4. Approval Workflow Execution

# GET /api/approval-queue (list pending)
# POST /api/approval/{id}/approve (maker-checker sign-off)
# Verify: approved_at, approved_by populated

📋 Risk Mitigation

Risk	Mitigation	Status
No real data	Use KRX OpenAPI (fallback stub available)	✅ Code ready
Migration failure	IdUp checksums + rollback procedure	✅ Designed
Consumer crash	Transient retry + idempotency dedup	✅ Implemented
Model drift	OOS monitoring dashboard + alert	⏳ Needs wiring
Concurrent access	DisableConcurrentExecution (60min max)	✅ Configured
Data loss	JSONB immutability + audit triggers	✅ Enforced

🎯 Success Criteria (Pre-Go-Live)

Functional

• Shadow run completes in < 30 minutes (with real KRX data)
• All 4 validation gates produce numeric results (no NaN, null)
• Async events flow: Outbox → Inbox → Consumer (verifiable via logs)
• Approval queue auto-populated on gate passage
• Audit log entry created for every completion (PASS/FAIL)

Non-Functional

• Zero test regressions (87/87 passing)
• Query response time: shadow_run SELECT < 100ms
• Job concurrency: Single execution held for 60 minutes max
• Memory usage: < 500MB per job run
• Log compression: Rotate after 10GB per day

Security

• No SELECT * (schema-qualified, explicit columns)
• No direct module-to-module table access (IOutboxWriter/IInboxStore only)
• No sensitive data logged (API keys, PII redacted)
• Correlation IDs present in all audit records

---

📞 Escalation

If any validation gate fails:

1. Capture evidence (logs, metrics, database state)
2. File issue with decision point (e.g., "PBO > 20%, impact assessment needed")
3. Root cause analysis: Code vs data vs external API
4. Resolution: Fix + re-run shadow run OR defer with documented exception

Owner: ModelOperations team
Stakeholders: Risk, Trading, Compliance

---

Next Actions:

1. Execute 252+ trading-day shadow run (this week)
2. Collect PBO/DSR evidence (evidence_table.md)
3. Activate maker-checker workflow approval
4. Go-live authorization

Timeline: ≤ 2 weeks to production
