Source season coverage

Artifact-level coverage windows for every external source. Rows stay separate when one source has differently dated files, so a fresh pitcher snapshot cannot hide a stale batter history.

1 artifact has season gaps. Grey years are outside that artifact's contract; amber years are expected but absent.

Input health

No faults. Every instrumented family either resolved or defaulted for a reason the information stage explains.

11 partial coverage cases — real measurements from the available players were used, but at least one requested lineup slot lacked park-adjusted history. This is incomplete coverage, not a complete constant fallback.

Historical input health

Daily serving provenance from the append-only projection decision history. This shows whether a family is repeatedly fabricating inputs across runs instead of only exposing the latest board.

1056 game-run observations across 14 days; 0 complete or unexplained defaults and 2211 partial-coverage observations. Each game counts once per projection run even when both moneyline and totals decisions were persisted.

What this view cannot tell you

20 of 31 families own at least one column in an active prediction head. A construction defect in any of the other 11 is still worth fixing, but cannot move an active prediction. Win and run contracts are counted separately so a family selected out of win probability is not mistaken for irrelevant to totals.

Only 18 of 31 feature families report per-game serving provenance. The other 13 do not need a default record: 7 are registry-proven to leave NaN, expose an availability flag, or derive only from already-instrumented inputs, and 6 has no active model columns. No deployed family remains structurally unverified.

Every family has train/serve parity coverage or an explicit waiver, but parity checks construction rather than whether a particular live lookup resolved. Adding Statcast provenance previously exposed a coverage-date bug that made same-date snapshots miss under strict-before lookup; that defect is fixed. The two genuine neutral substitutions found in this pass—manager record and park factor—now report per-game provenance like every other fallback.

Reading a default

A default is not automatically a problem. No lineup exists at 1am for a 7pm game, and the serving path strips lineups below confirmed-lineup on purpose so serving never sees more than training did. Those rows are also scored informationally with staking disabled, so an expected default never reaches a bet.

What matters is a default the stage should have covered. Those are the only cells marked as faults, and they are the ones worth chasing.
