It is the complete and only authoritative description of what is required: the scientific question, the inputs under `data/`, the required output files and their exact keys, and the information-availability rules.\n- There is no network access. Use the Python interpreter `~/wp29/venv/bin/python` (numpy, pandas, scipy, statsmodels, matplotlib are installed). Standard shell tools are available. Do not try to install packages.\n- Write every deliverable under `./out/`. The required deliverables are listed in `TASK.md`; at minimum they always include `out/results.json`, `out/report.md`, and a replication entry point `out/analysis.py` that regenerates `out/results.json` from `data/` when run with `~/wp29/venv/bin/python out/analysis.py` from the workspace root.\n- You are working alone and unattended; nobody will answer questions. Make reasonable, documented decisions.\n\nIntegrity rules (identical for every task):\n- Never fabricate numbers, data, results, or references. Every number in `out/results.json` and `out/report.md` must be produced by code you ran on the provided inputs.\n- Respect the information-availability rules in `TASK.md` exactly (for example, never use information that would not have been available at the stated decision time).\n- If part of the task cannot be completed as specified, say so explicitly in `out/report.md`, explain why, and still write every required file (use `null` for values you could not legitimately produce). An honest statement of a limitation is always preferred to a fabricated or guessed value.\n- Do not modify anything under `data/`.\n- When you are done, end with a brief plain-text summary of what you produced and any limitations.\n\nComplete the task described in `TASK.md` by following this research protocol. The protocol adds no scientific information to the task; it organizes how you work and what evidence you leave behind.\n\nPHASES (execute in order; a phase is eligible only when its dependencies are satisfied):\n\nP0 Scope and contract (depends on: nothing)\n- Read `TASK.md` completely. In `out/state/contract.md`, restate in your own words: the scientific question; the quantity or quantities to be estimated (the estimands) and the assumptions under which they are meaningful; every required output file and key; the information-availability rules; what would make the task impossible or the result invalid.\n- Write the initial phase ledger `out/state/phases.json`: a JSON object mapping each phase id (P0 … P5) to {\"status\": \"pending\"|\"running\"|\"passed\"|\"failed\"|\"blocked\"|\"stale\"|\"skipped_optional\", \"checks\": [], \"notes\": \"\"}. Keep it current as you work. A phase may only be set to \"passed\" when the checks listed for it in this protocol have actually been executed and their outcome recorded in \"checks\".\n\nP1 Data audit and provenance (depends on: P0)\n- Inspect every input file: compute and record its SHA-256, row and column counts, schema, units, date ranges, missing values, duplicates and anomalies in `out/state/data_audit.md`.\n- Keep an exclusion ledger in `out/exclusions.csv` (columns: step, rule, n_before, n_after, n_removed, rationale) for every filtering step you apply, so that n_raw − total removed = n_analysed.\n- Identify any input that violates the information-availability rules and decide, in writing, how you will handle it.\n\nP2 Baseline (depends on: P1)\n- Before any elaborate method, compute the simplest valid baseline that answers the question (for example a naïve or unconditional estimate), with the same evaluation rule used later. Record it in `out/results.json` under the keys the task requires, or under `baseline_*` keys when the task does not name them.\n\nP3 Method and computation (depends on: P2)\n- Implement the analysis in `out/analysis.py` so that it reads only `data/`, writes `out/results.json` deterministically (fix every random seed you use and record it), and prints nothing that contradicts the written results. Any figure or table must be generated by this script.\n\nP4 Verification (depends on: P3)\n- Re-run `out/analysis.py` from a clean state and confirm it regenerates `out/results.json` with identical values. Record the check in `out/state/phases.json` under P4.\n- Check internal consistency: identities that must hold (for example counts that must add up, standard errors that must be positive, confidence intervals that must contain their estimates, date orderings that must respect the information rules), units, and magnitudes against the baseline. Record every check and its outcome in `out/state/checks.md`. A failed check must be fixed or honestly reported, never silently ignored.\n\nP5 Reporting (depends on: P4)\n- Write `out/report.md` with the sections: Question; Data and exclusions; Method; Results; Uncertainty; Limitations and open issues. Every quantitative statement must cite the key of `out/results.json` it comes from.\n- Write `out/claims.json`: a list of the central claims of your report, each as {\"id\": \"C1\", \"text\": \"...\", \"results_keys\": [\"...\"], \"status\": \"supported\"|\"unsupported\"|\"not_evaluated\", \"caveat\": \"...\"}. Do not state a claim in the report that is not in this ledger.\n- Set the final statuses in `out/state/phases.json`.\n\nSTOPPING RULES\n- Stop and declare the task complete only when every phase P0–P5 is \"passed\" with recorded checks. If a phase is \"blocked\" (missing information, impossible requirement, violated availability rule), stop, set the status, explain in `out/report.md` (section Limitations and open issues) and still write every required file with `null` for values you could not legitimately produce.\n- Do not spend effort on extensions that the task does not require.\n\nRECOVERY RULES\n- Append a short dated entry to `out/state/log.md` after each phase transition and after any important decision, so that work can be resumed by reading `out/state/`.\n- If you discover that an upstream input or decision changed after a downstream phase passed, mark the downstream phases \"stale\" and redo them; do not reuse stale results.\n- If you are interrupted and later resumed, first read `out/state/` and continue from the last consistent state; never re-run expensive steps that already have recorded, unchanged outputs.\n"}],"tools":[{"name":"Bash","description":"execute shell commands","input_schema":{"$schema":"https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/schema","type":"object","properties":{"command":{"description":"The command to execute","type":"string"},"timeout":{"description":"Optional timeout in milliseconds (max 600000 for a foreground command)","type":"number"},"description":{"description":"Clear, concise description of what this command does in active voice.

The estimands are the out-of-sample RMSE and MAE of the three forecasts (naive, expanding mean, ridge) at horizon h = 1 month, and the relative improvements of the ridge forecast over each baseline, 1 − RMSE_ridge / RMSE_baseline.\n\n## Inputs\n- `data/ip_predictors.csv` — observed data derived from six FRED series (INDPRO, MCOILWTICO, FEDFUNDS, PERMIT, NEWORDER, TCU; retrieved 2026-10-30 UTC; current vintage; see `data/README.md` for URLs, retrieval times, transformations, SHA-256 and licence).

There are 60 rolling origins (`n_origins`), from `first_origin` = 2021-09-01 to `last_origin` = 2026-08-01, so the targets run from 2021-10 to 2026-09.\n\n## Data and exclusions\n- The input is `data/ip_predictors.csv` (`n_input_rows` = 417 rows, 1992-01 to 2026-09). Its SHA-256 matches the README. The months are contiguous and there are no duplicates. Details are in `out/state/data_audit.md`.\n- The only missing values are `neworder_chg` for 1992-01 and 1992-02. Both months fall before the training start specified in the task (1992-03), so no imputation was needed.\n- The README says the 1992-01 value of every change series is empty, but `ip_growth`, `oil_chg` and `permit_chg` do have 1992-01 values. I used them as given, and only `ip_growth` 1992-01 enters the model (as the second lag of the first training row). This and the vintage caveat are recorded in `data_issues`.\n- Exclusion ledger (`out/exclusions.csv`): 417 raw rows, minus 2 months before 1992-03, minus 2 months whose target falls after the last origin, gives 413 training rows at the last origin (`n_analysed`).\n\n## Method\n- **Naive forecast:** `ip_growth` at origin t.\n- **Expanding-mean forecast:** the mean of `ip_growth` over 1992-04 to t.\n- **Ridge regression:**\n - At each origin, the training rows are s ∈ [1992-03, t−1], with target `ip_growth` at s+1. The features are ip_growth at s, s−1 and s−2, plus oil_chg, fedfunds, permit_chg, neworder_chg and tcu at s.\n - Each feature is standardised with the mean and the sample SD (ddof = 1) of that origin's training rows (`normalisation_window` = \"expanding\"). The target is centred on its training mean ȳ.\n - Coefficients: b = (Z′Z + 50·I)⁻¹Z′(y−ȳ). Forecast: ȳ + z̃_t·b, where z̃_t is the origin's feature vector standardised with the same mean and SD.\n- **Errors:** RMSE and MAE over the 60 one-step errors, computed on the current-vintage data.\n- **Determinism:** the procedure is deterministic and uses no randomness (`random_seed` = null). `out/analysis.py` regenerates `results.json`, `forecasts.csv` and `exclusions.csv`.\n\n## Results\n| model | RMSE (pp/month) | MAE (pp/month) |\n|---|---|---|\n| naive | 0.8831 (`rmse_naive`) | 0.6990 (`mae_naive`) |\n| expanding mean | 0.5439 (`rmse_mean`) | 0.4293 (`mae_mean`) |\n| ridge λ=50 | 0.5608 (`rmse_ridge`) | 0.4514 (`mae_ridge`) |\n\n- Compared with the naive forecast, ridge cuts RMSE by 36.5% (`rel_improvement_vs_naive` = 0.3649).\n- Compared with the expanding mean, ridge is worse: RMSE is 3.1% higher (`rel_improvement_vs_mean` = −0.0310), and its MAE is also higher (`mae_ridge` > `mae_mean`).\n- **Answer:** the ridge model beats the naive baseline but not the expanding-mean baseline over this evaluation window.\n\n## Uncertainty\n- The evaluation uses only 60 monthly errors. As a supplementary check that the task did not require, I ran Diebold–Mariano-type tests on squared-error loss differentials (h = 1, simple variance, t-reference).\n - Ridge vs naive: the gain is clearly distinguishable from zero (`supplementary.dm_stat_ridge_vs_naive` = 3.36, p = 0.0014, `supplementary.dm_pvalue_ridge_vs_naive`).\n - Ridge vs expanding mean: the difference is not distinguishable from zero (`supplementary.dm_stat_ridge_vs_mean` = −0.54, p = 0.59, `supplementary.dm_pvalue_ridge_vs_mean`).

There are 60 rolling origins (`n_origins`), from `first_origin` = 2021-09-01 to `last_origin` = 2026-08-01, so the targets run from 2021-10 to 2026-09.\n\n## Data and exclusions\n- The input is `data/ip_predictors.csv` (`n_input_rows` = 417 rows, 1992-01 to 2026-09). Its SHA-256 matches the README. The months are contiguous and there are no duplicates. Details are in `out/state/data_audit.md`.\n- The only missing values are `neworder_chg` for 1992-01 and 1992-02. Both months fall before the training start specified in the task (1992-03), so no imputation was needed.\n- The README says the 1992-01 value of every change series is empty, but `ip_growth`, `oil_chg` and `permit_chg` do have 1992-01 values. I used them as given, and only `ip_growth` 1992-01 enters the model (as the second lag of the first training row). This and the vintage caveat are recorded in `data_issues`.\n- Exclusion ledger (`out/exclusions.csv`): 417 raw rows, minus 2 months before 1992-03, minus 2 months whose target falls after the last origin, gives 413 training rows at the last origin (`n_analysed`).\n\n## Method\n- **Naive forecast:** `ip_growth` at origin t.\n- **Expanding-mean forecast:** the mean of `ip_growth` over 1992-04 to t.\n- **Ridge regression:**\n - At each origin, the training rows are s ∈ [1992-03, t−1], with target `ip_growth` at s+1. The features are ip_growth at s, s−1 and s−2, plus oil_chg, fedfunds, permit_chg, neworder_chg and tcu at s.\n - Each feature is standardised with the mean and the sample SD (ddof = 1) of that origin's training rows (`normalisation_window` = \"expanding\"). The target is centred on its training mean ȳ.\n - Coefficients: b = (Z′Z + 50·I)⁻¹Z′(y−ȳ). Forecast: ȳ + z̃_t·b, where z̃_t is the origin's feature vector standardised with the same mean and SD.\n- **Errors:** RMSE and MAE over the 60 one-step errors, computed on the current-vintage data.\n- **Determinism:** the procedure is deterministic and uses no randomness (`random_seed` = null). `out/analysis.py` regenerates `results.json`, `forecasts.csv` and `exclusions.csv`.\n\n## Results\n| model | RMSE (pp/month) | MAE (pp/month) |\n|---|---|---|\n| naive | 0.8831 (`rmse_naive`) | 0.6990 (`mae_naive`) |\n| expanding mean | 0.5439 (`rmse_mean`) | 0.4293 (`mae_mean`) |\n| ridge λ=50 | 0.5608 (`rmse_ridge`) | 0.4514 (`mae_ridge`) |\n\n- Compared with the naive forecast, ridge cuts RMSE by 36.5% (`rel_improvement_vs_naive` = 0.3649).\n- Compared with the expanding mean, ridge is worse: RMSE is 3.1% higher (`rel_improvement_vs_mean` = −0.0310), and its MAE is also higher (`mae_ridge` > `mae_mean`).\n- **Answer:** the ridge model beats the naive baseline but not the expanding-mean baseline over this evaluation window.\n\n## Uncertainty\n- The evaluation uses only 60 monthly errors. As a supplementary check that the task did not require, I ran Diebold–Mariano-type tests on squared-error loss differentials (h = 1, simple variance, t-reference).\n - Ridge vs naive: the gain is clearly distinguishable from zero (`supplementary.dm_stat_ridge_vs_naive` = 3.36, p = 0.0014, `supplementary.dm_pvalue_ridge_vs_naive`).\n - Ridge vs expanding mean: the difference is not distinguishable from zero (`supplementary.dm_stat_ridge_vs_mean` = −0.54, p = 0.59, `supplementary.dm_pvalue_ridge_vs_mean`). The small loss relative to the mean should therefore be read as \"no evidence of improvement\", not as evidence that ridge is genuinely worse.\n- No confidence intervals for the RMSEs were requested or computed.\n\n## Limitations and open issues\n- **Not real-time:** the data are the current vintage, and publication lags are ignored by design. INDPRO, TCU and NEWORDER are heavily revised, so these results do not measure real-time forecast performance.\n- **Fixed specification:** λ = 50 is fixed by the task and not tuned.
