- 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
The CLI validated, normalized, and classified tickers with its own logic that
diverged from the data layer: it rejected '=' symbols like GC=F (#980),
classified BTCUSD as a stock (#981), and accepted unpriceable BTC-USDT (#982).
Route the CLI through normalize_symbol (now mapping USDT/USDC crypto quotes to
Yahoo's -USD pair), so validation, classification, and pricing agree.
