Strategy Discovery & Backtest (the gate)

This skill is the law: no strategy reaches a live order without a PASS here. It is invoked first whenever anyone says "trade X", "day-trade Y", or "deploy this idea". It either returns a backtested, human-approvable strategy or an honest "no edge found".

Educational analysis, not financial advice. Backtests do not guarantee future results.

When to run (trigger)

• A "trade / day-trade / deploy" request for any asset (stock or crypto).
• A new signal hypothesis from any analyst skill that wants to size capital.
• Any edit to an existing strategy's rules (re-run the gate; rules changed = unproven again).
