Generated 2026-09-25T05:00:00.007509-04:00 ET from official finals (mlb-api). Every learning stage is listed with what it did. "Blocked" means it wanted to act and a safety rule stopped it; "nothing to learn" means it had no eligible evidence.

Luna KPI candidates and their promotion gate

Promotion needs 400+ prospective rows over 5+ slates after the proposal, with a gain interval above zero. Only verified pregame forecasts count; local replays never do.

The missing integrity-revision audit is a provenance gap, but it did not prevent the supplied per-game structural checks from running. It does mean immutable revision/remediation claims cannot be independently confirmed from t
