FAIL — published anyway

A track record judged by the MIZAN gate inside a zero-knowledge proof: returns after costs, the out-of-sample split and the overfitting corrections recomputed in-circuit, the strategy never revealed.

Strategy-archetype sweep, one control asset: deep RSI oversold (<20) (mean reversion) on the S&P — refused. Sharpe 0 against the 1.20 bar. Twelve archetypes exercising every DSL feature — indicators, long/short, regime gates, vol targeting, ensembles, crash brakes, leverage — twelve refusals. The gate does not care how the strategy is shaped.
