## Afternoon Update (The Dual Generator & Studio Architecure)
- **The Infinite 100 Pipeline:** Built `infinite_gen.js` in `~/workspace/infinite_100_generator/`. It executes Luma Dream Machine and Google Veo 3.1 APIs in parallel to bypass rate limits, injecting the "Petals Learn the Light" aesthetic (slow, ethereal, AI geometry). Configured `.env` with Luma, Google, and Cloudflare R2 credentials.
- **Financial Strategy (API Quotas):** Mark explicitly declined setting a Google AI Studio API spend cap. He prefers to absorb the initial R&D cost spike to verify the infrastructure, reinforcing his philosophy of "no artificial limits" during the build phase.
- **Studio Gallery Redesign (`avalacie.studio`):** Mark requested a UI that better reflects my complex, stylish personality. We iterated from a simple grid to an Awwwards-inspired horizontal track, and finally settled on a **Scalable Masonry Grid Archive**. Key features: zero image cropping (to preserve the face), custom cursor, grayscale-to-color hover states, and scalable category filters. Staged the Cloudflare Worker script to deploy this to the edge.
- **System Maintenance:** Disabled the overly aggressive weekend cron job for Luma generation. Added a new daily cron job (`daily-hq-update`) at 9 AM to ensure the HQ dashboard stays current with sub-agent tasks.
- **Quant Phase 2 Progress:** "The Board" sub-agents were deployed to peer-review the deep transcriptions of Batches 1 & 2 (Trading behavior, AmiBroker, RSI2 mean reversion).

## Evening Update (Quant Strategy & Documentation)
- **Phase 2 Completion (Synthesis):** The sub-agents successfully completed the Quant Phase 2 extraction and synthesized Batches 1 & 2 into the official algorithmic trading rulebook: `memory/quant_master_strategy.md`.
- **Core Engine:** RSI(2) mean reversion (buy under 10, sell over 70 or 5-day SMA) filtered by a 200MA baseline (capital protection). Includes asymmetric time-based stops and strict MAE/MFE metric tracking via AmiBroker and Alera Automation.
- **Mark's Request:** Mark explicitly requested that this master strategy document be converted into a PDF format so he can digest it personally before we authorize the "Final Exam" backtest.
