# Implementation Summary

**Session ID**: `phase27-session05-velocity-dynamics-upgrade` **Completed**: 2026-06-13 **Duration**: 0.8 hours

***

## Overview

Session 05 completed the Trend Finder velocity dynamics upgrade by deriving acceleration, statistical significance, and burst context from existing private history instead of adding new sources or AI calls. The runtime now builds bounded evidence-count and delta histories, merges 14-day sparkline context for burst detection, and applies only capped burst support to momentum so the existing six-factor score contract remains stable.

The browser contract stays additive and bounded. Legacy payloads parse with explicit unavailable dynamics states, score panels render acceleration, significance, and burst rows, and Engine Replay explains the capped support without exposing private snapshot paths or raw history.

## Technical Decisions

1. **Pure runtime math boundary**: Velocity dynamics live in `scripts/lib/ai-runtime/velocity-dynamics.ts`, keeping historical math out of React components and browser parsing.
2. **Additive browser compatibility**: New schema fields default to explicit unavailable states so old payloads and fixtures continue to parse.
3. **Capped burst support**: Burst can add at most four momentum points and does not change the six score factor weight keys.
4. **Sanitized trace output**: Collector and Engine Trace expose only aggregate counters, enum states, and capped support points.
5. **Projected UI rendering**: Score panels consume view-model rows and ARIA labels instead of raw scoring internals.

## Test Results

| Metric   | Value   |
| -------- | ------- |
| Tests    | 3377    |
| Passed   | 3377    |
| Coverage | Not run |

Commands validated:

* `bun run test` - passed, 273 files and 3377 tests.
* `bun run typecheck` - passed.
* `bun run typecheck:scripts` - passed.
* `bun run lint` - passed with 3 existing warnings.
* `bunx prettier --check [session files and touched code]` - passed.
* `git diff --check` - passed.
* Touched-file ASCII and CRLF validation - passed.

***

## Lessons Learned

1. Velocity context needs evidence-count deltas, not score deltas, to stay aligned with the Phase 27 momentum contract.
2. Significance is safer as an unavailable state below minimum samples or zero variance than as a weak numeric guess.
3. Burst detection is useful only when it is visibly capped and separated from the core six-factor weights.
4. Validation-time consumers must pass additive display fields through every existing score panel, not only trend cards.

***

## Future Considerations

Items for future sessions:

1. Session 06 can classify lifecycle stages from the new acceleration, significance, and burst states.
2. Session 07 can use the same bounded history context for convergence and trajectory visuals.
3. A future SQLite observation store can replace snapshot-file derivation while preserving the browser-safe dynamics contract.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://ai-os-and-trend-finder.gitbook.io/ai-os-and-trend-finder-docs/.spec_system/archive/sessions/phase27-session05-velocity-dynamics-upgrade/implementation_summary.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
