Seven MCP servers expose the same curated data layer to any agent or script — quotes, fundamentals, backtest results and analyses all answer to one interface, so the research loop never leaves the terminal.

The core is a walk-forward validation pipeline: strategy grids run over decades of data with in-sample selection and out-of-sample stitching, because a backtest that can't fail is just a chart. A 36-arm grid over 2005-2013 data is the current benchmark run.

PostgreSQL for storage, Python for everything else, and a strict no-lookahead rule enforced by the pipeline itself rather than by discipline.
