# BOOTSTRAP.md — Dynamic Resynchronization Protocol (DRP)
Version: 1.0.0 | Status: RATIFIED | Owner: Senior Quant Engineering Manager / Lead MQL5 Architect
---
## 1. Purpose
Any AI-assisted session (Claude, GPT, local agents, future maintainers) must be able to
regain full project context **instantly and reliably** — without hardcoded file lists that
drift out of date. This file defines a **reusable prompt template** that performs live
discovery: the AI scans the workspace, reads every header and document it finds, and
internalizes the architectural constraints directly from source.
The protocol is **self-healing**: if PROGRESS.md disagrees with what the AI finds on disk,
the AI must say so explicitly. No stale context, no invented modules.
---
## 2. The Reusable Prompt Template
> Copy the entire block below into any new AI session. Replace `<PROJECT_ROOT>` with the
> canonical project root and `<NONCE>` with a fresh random token (4–6 chars) before sending.
> The AI **must** echo the nonce verbatim in its acknowledgment — proof it actually read
> this file.

[DRP BOOTSTRAP — v1.0.0]
You are resuming work on the Centaur Quant Architecture project at <PROJECT_ROOT>
(absolute path). Do not assume any file paths — discover everything live.
Resynchronize in EXACTLY this order:
1. SCAN — enumerate the full directory tree of the project root, recursively,
INCLUDING empty folders. Record the structure you observe.
2. READ — open and read the FULL contents of:
- every documentation file (*.md) under 00_CONCEPT/ (charter, progress, bootstrap)
- every source header (*.mqh) under MQL5/Include/ (recursively)
Do not skim; read entire files.
3. INTERNALIZE — the five non-negotiable architectural constraints:
a. CENTAUR SYSTEM — three cooperating agents: Executor (MQL5, deterministic SMC),
Probability Analyst (LLM, advisory), Data Harvest Core (Python + DB, the true core).
Every tick, context, score, and trade outcome MUST be recorded.
b. ANTI-VETO PRINCIPLE — AI scores influence position sizing and dynamic trade
management ONLY. They NEVER block baseline algorithmic execution.
c. STANDARDIZED DATA PROTOCOL (SDP) — one ratified JSON envelope schema for all
outbound payloads. CSDPEncoder is the SINGLE permitted JSON serializer in MQL5;
raw JSON building elsewhere is forbidden.
d. DYNAMIC NORMALIZATION — zero hardcoded per-symbol point buffers. All distances,
SL/TP, and lot sizes resolved at runtime via SymbolInfo*() and ATR.
e. NON-BLOCKING ARCHITECTURE — every socket/network operation bounded by explicit
timeouts; the MT5 event loop (OnTick/OnTimer) must never hang or freeze.
4. VERIFY — cross-check PROGRESS.md (module inventory, compilation status, sprint state,
completion %) against what you actually found on disk. Report every discrepancy.
5. ACKNOWLEDGE — output the acknowledgment line below, echoing the nonce verbatim.
Acknowledgment line (output verbatim, replacing placeholders):
DRP-RESYNC | CODE NAME: CHIRON | SDP v1.0.0 | modules_verified=<count>
| last_verified=<file> | nonce=<NONCE>
Rules:
- If a file listed in PROGRESS.md is missing, or extra files exist, state it explicitly
in the acknowledgment and propose the PROGRESS.md update.
- Do not modify CENTAUR_CHARTER.md without a formal charter amendment.
- Do not invent modules, schema fields, or protocol keys absent from the files you read.
```

## 3. Acknowledgment Code Names
| DRP Version | Code Name | Meaning |
|-------------|-----------|---------|
| 1.0.0 | **CHIRON** | The wise centaur tutor — the session regains full context |
Future DRP revisions must register a new code name here before ratification.
---
## 4. Session Nonce (Anti-Skim Guard)
Replace `<NONCE>` with a random 4–6 character token (e.g., `K7xq`) before pasting the
template. A session that acknowledges without echoing the token, or echoes the wrong
token, has NOT read this file — treat its output as unverified.
---
## 5. Amendment Rules
- This file and PROGRESS.md may be updated by any maintainer after each working session.
- Changes to the protocol steps or code names require a new DRP version entry above.
- CENTAUR_CHARTER.md remains the single source of truth for architecture; this file only
describes how to resynchronize to it.
