// project 05 — build profile
An AI-powered trading bot for Aster DEX combining technical signals (UT Bot, RSI, EMA, VWAP), sentiment scoring, and Claude as the decision-making brain. Paper-trade mode on by default — live capital only unlocks past a hard Sharpe ratio gate.
Currently in Phase 1 — Foundation: Aster WebSocket client, candle ingestion, and paper-order plumbing. Sign-off gate requires health check green, candles populating per symbol/interval, paper orders writing correctly, and zero live order traffic on the network monitor.
Non-negotiables carried from the spec: PAPER_TRADE_MODE=true by default, secrets never logged, no blind retries on ambiguous 503s, and no any types. Live trading only unlocks after the Phase 3 sign-off gate (Sharpe > 1.0 backtest, manual test trade, clean TP/SL, alerts wired).
