- backtest takes --run-id, so an interrupted sweep continues
- an inverted date range or an empty ticker list is an error, not a clean zero-cell run
- a setup failure in a sweep reports one line instead of a traceback
- the remembered endpoint URL is offered back
- a round count set in the environment says it overrode the chosen research depth
- the run directory validates the ticker, and the report saves under results_dir
- the run says whether it resumed a saved run or started fresh
- analysis stays the bare invocation; backtest runs a ticker and date grid
- selections name the models as the config does
- the pending note prints only when a cell is pending
Interactive selections and flag defaults overrode TRADINGAGENTS_* env vars.
Rule: an explicit env value or CLI flag wins; otherwise the env-applied
default is kept.
- Research depth: skip the prompt when both round-count env vars are set, and
stop overwriting them (#977).
- Checkpoint: --checkpoint/--no-checkpoint is tri-state; omitting it keeps
TRADINGAGENTS_CHECKPOINT_ENABLED (#976).
- Docker ollama: use TRADINGAGENTS_LLM_PROVIDER + OLLAMA_BASE_URL, not a bare
LLM_PROVIDER the overlay never reads (#975).
- Reasoning/thinking knobs: settable via env; the prompt is skipped when set.
- Effort gating: forward effort only to models that accept it (Anthropic
Opus 4.5+/Sonnet 4.6+, OpenAI reasoning models); drop it elsewhere.
- Boolean env values: raise a named error on invalid input instead of
silently becoming False.
