Why

Almost every PR runs the full 164-shard matrix, and the Select shards job said only "Running the full matrix (164 shards)." Of 23 PR runs since 2026-09-24 that reached a verdict, 22 escalated. Nobody could see which file forced it or what narrowing would have saved, so fixes kept being guesses.

What this PR does

1. The selector records every decision (Select-Shards.ps1). One record per pull-request path is written where it is decided: category, outcome (routed / escalated / skipped / reviewed), shards, and reason.

selection.json gains report-only fields, none of which the matrix decision reads:

  • files: the per-path records.
  • wouldSelect: the coverage selection, previously discarded whenever any escalation fired.
  • map: the map sha, files changed since the map, and files changed by this change.

2. The report (Write-SelectionReport.ps1, wired into the Select step and the Build job). It shows:

  • The verdict, including what coverage alone would have selected when the run escalates.
  • What forced the full matrix, grouped by rule, with the triggering files.
  • Every changed file: category, outcome, shard count, and reason.
  • Shards added whatever the change touched (always-run, redefined), kept apart from change-driven ones.
  • Every change-driven shard with all of its reasons, not the first five.
  • In the Build job, test-level narrowing from type-impact-plan.json: the classes each shard runs, and the unresolved causes grouped.
  • Both files are uploaded as the shard-selection-report artifact.

The report cannot change the matrix. It runs after the decision, it only warns on failure, and it has its own self-test with 10 known-answer checks.

Evidence

Replaying #2272 through this branch gives:

  • Verdict: full matrix, where coverage alone would have run 101 of 164.
  • Four escalations: a TestScaffoldGenerator.cs edit (FullValidation), an abstract test base, a new test class no shard filter selects, and a Select-AffectedTests.ps1 edit.
  • Newly visible waste: a doc-comment change in BatchNormalizationLayer.cs (lines 349-350, which no shard executes) sent the file to all 61 shards that execute any of it.

Checks run:

  • Select-Shards.ps1 -SelfTest: pass.
  • Test-CiImpactWorkflow.ps1: contract passed.
  • Write-SelectionReport.ps1 -SelfTest: pass.

The rule fixes

Each fix narrows a rule that used to escalate to the full matrix. It also makes sure a class that no shard ran before now runs somewhere.

Rule Before After Commits
.github files nothing reads full matrix non-runtime 474f6fa
Unreferenced top-level trees and test sources not assigned to a shard full matrix non-runtime, or routed 5d0947e
tools/* full matrix routed by what references it 8b43011
Generator change (src/AiDotNet.Generators/) FullValidation TypeImpact maps it through the generated output diff against a merge-base build 51a5b2e, 1f137ac
Test classes no shard filter selects (269) never ran Unassigned - 01/02 shards, plus a build step that fails when any class is unselected 8792efd, 67aca9b
Conformance windows offset windows, so a new model moved every later window windows keyed by model name, so a new model moves only its own window e45350f
Edited const in a file whose type exposes one unresolved (full shard) the files that name the const as a whole word (git grep) are treated as changed; an unreadable const line stays unresolved 0aff0cb
Paths that cannot affect a test (NonRuntime, BuildOnly) sent to TypeImpact, which could not map them dropped before TypeImpact (Select-AffectedTests.ps1) 54bc7c3

tools/TestImpact/Invoke-SelectionReplay.ps1 (b840afc, 4c7cce7) replays shard selection over real PRs. It reads each PR's base and merge commit from GitHub.

What the new shards exposed

The Unassigned shards run classes that no shard ever ran, and some of them failed:

  • FTTransformer (401c563): training updated only the head. The CLS token was extracted outside the tape, so no gradient reached the backbone. Extraction now goes through Engine.TensorSlice + Reshape. The test TrainStep_UpdatesTheWholeNetwork_NotOnlyTheHead requires at least 80% of parameters to move.
  • PiecewiseLinearEncodingLayer (d0fe11b): rewritten as the paper defines it. The bin edges are a fitted buffer [F, T+1] (FitBoundaries), the encoding uses tape ops, and the layer has no trainable parameters.
  • Test-order dependence (6706e9a, c2dfa5e): per-trial seeds (t's seeding kept), and classes that set the process-wide engine run in an EngineCurrentGlobalState collection with parallelization disabled.
  • Engine swaps under training (a5ea55c, 736e937):
    • AiDotNetEngine.ResetToCpu() installs a new CpuEngine on every call. A reset in one class swapped the engine under a model training in another, and that step's update was lost. FusedOptimizerParityTests.LAMB_FusedMatchesEager_NoWorseThanAdam and FTTransformerClassifierTests.Train_ReducesCrossEntropy... failed only beside other classes and passed alone.
    • AiModelBuilder now keeps a current CPU engine on a CPU configuration.
    • 41 test call sites go through TestEngines.EnsureCpu().
    • The library fix is AiDotNet.Tensors#1082.
  • A stale self-test (c410461): Test-CiImpactWorkflow.ps1 still required ADNSHAPE_CONF_OFFSET/BUDGET on the 34 conformance shards after the move to name-keyed windows. That was 68 failures in a script the Build job runs.

Verification (local, CPU engine)

Check Result
Unassigned - 01 before the engine fix: 1 failed (LAMB parity). After: 1557/1557 passed
Unassigned - 02 before: 1 failed (FTTransformer). After: 1830 passed, 4 skipped
TypeImpact self-test 20/20 cases
Test-CiImpactWorkflow, Test-TestImpactEndToEnd, Test-SelectAffectedTestsInertPaths, -Passthrough, Test-CiGateModes, Test-CiWorkloads, Test-CiPolicyImpact, Test-AuxiliaryInventory, Test-ShardManifestDrift pass

The Unassigned result is one full pass; a second pass was cut short by machine memory pressure. CI reruns both shards on this head.

Known local-only failure: QuantumStateEncodingRegressionTests fails when AIDOTNET_DISABLE_GPU=1 is set, which no CI shard sets.

Not in this PR

  • Comment-only hunks. Not done: the generators read XML docs, so they would have to be proven safe first.
  • Deleted-file resolution in TypeImpact. In 12 CI runs it caused 19 of the remaining unresolved plans; it is a follow-up.
  • Unrelated commits. The branch also carries the AMSGrad/Nadam optimizer fixes and the Tensors 0.133.2 then 0.134.0 bumps (04da3d7, 539c350, 8e72b2e, 5eed8a5, 9fccf87, ecbe66d).

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Automated test runs now include reports summarizing selected test groups, file-selection decisions, escalation reasons, and whether test or model jobs were needed.
    • Reports distinguish test groups considered from those actually selected. Selection records and rendered reports are available as downloadable artifacts for 14 days. Reporting or artifact-upload issues do not fail the build.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Changes to .editorconfig files now trigger compilation without selecting test shards.
    • Changing a neural network’s optimizer now invalidates cached training state so subsequent training uses the new optimizer.

Select shards reported only a verdict line and up to 5 route strings per shard. It
discarded the coverage selection whenever any escalation reason fired, which is
almost every PR, so nobody could see what narrowing would have given or which file
forced the full matrix.

The selector now writes one record per pull-request path where the decision is
made (category, outcome routed/escalated/skipped, shards, reason). selection.json
gains report-only fields: files, wouldSelect (the coverage selection even when
escalated), and map (sha, changed-since-map and changed-by-this-change counts). The
workflow's matrix decision reads none of them.

The Select shards summary was one line ("Running the full matrix (164 shards).").
Write-SelectionReport.ps1 renders selection.json into:
- the verdict, with what coverage alone would have selected when the run escalates
- what forced the full matrix, grouped by rule, with the files that triggered it
- every changed file: category, outcome, shard count and reason
- shards added whatever the change touched (always-run, redefined), kept apart
- every change-driven shard with all of its reasons, not the first five

The Build job appends test-level narrowing from type-impact-plan.json: the classes
each shard runs, and why the type-level plan could not resolve when it did not.
selection.json and selection-report.json are uploaded as shard-selection-report.

The report cannot affect the matrix. It runs after the decision, its failures only
warn, and it has its own self-test (10 known-answer checks). Replayed on #2272 it
names the four escalations and shows coverage alone would have run 101 of 164.

Walkthrough

The shard selector now records per-file decisions and map metadata. New scripts record effective test selections and create JSON and Markdown reports. The workflow generates, displays, and uploads available reports. Training changes invalidate compiled state when the optimizer changes. Tests update gradient reevaluation, optimizer replacement, fixture options, model dimensions, and architecture settings.

Changes

Test impact selection reporting

Layer / File(s) Summary
Record shard selection details
tools/TestImpact/Select-Shards.ps1
The selector records path classifications, outcomes, shard routes, and reasons. Its result includes map metadata and changed-path counts.
Record effective test selection
tools/TestImpact/Select-AffectedTests.ps1
The selector writes effective shard details for passthrough and narrowed selections. Write failures produce a warning without failing selection.
Build selection reports
tools/TestImpact/Write-SelectionReport.ps1
The script builds JSON and Markdown reports from selection data and optional type-impact data. It includes self-tests and bounds Markdown output.
Run and publish reports
.github/workflows/sonarcloud.yml
The workflow records override reasons, appends available reports, uses a fallback verdict if report generation fails, and uploads available selection files with 14-day retention.

Neural training updates

Layer / File(s) Summary
Update optimizer state and loss reevaluation
src/NeuralNetworks/NeuralNetworkBase.cs, tests/AiDotNet.Tests/UnitTests/NeuralNetworks/CustomObjectiveTrainingContractTests.cs, tests/AiDotNet.Tests/UnitTests/Optimizers/SetBaseTrainOptimizerFusedPlanTests.cs
Changing the optimizer reference invalidates the compiled training step and clears fused-training state flags. The reevaluation path calls ReevaluateWithGradients before saving the loss. A test checks training after optimizer replacement.

Test fixture updates

Layer / File(s) Summary
Adjust generator and model test fixtures
tests/AiDotNet.Tests/Generators/GeneratedHeavyFixtureContractTests.cs, tests/AiDotNet.Tests/Generators/TestScaffoldCoverageReportTests.cs, tests/AiDotNet.Tests/ModelFamilyTests/Diffusion/MGIETests.cs
The MemFlow fixture uses an options object, the coverage test expects a fully qualified model name, and the MGIE fixture sets smaller model dimensions.
Set explicit architecture settings
tests/AiDotNet.Tests/IntegrationTests/LossFunctions/CategoricalCrossEntropyTapeIssue1191Tests.cs, tests/AiDotNet.Tests/IntegrationTests/NeuralNetworks/TransformerTrainingTraceTest.cs
The loss-function test creates a separately seeded architecture for each trial. The training trace test sets dropout, warmup steps, and a random seed.

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to efccc

The reporting changes remain non-gating, and optimizer replacement resets compiled training state. No actionable merge blocker remains; merge after normal checks pass.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to efccc

The inspected changes do not establish a new security vulnerability or privilege expansion. Reporting remains separate from test execution decisions, and optimizer replacement resets the owning model’s compiled state. Concurrent reconfiguration and interrupted training recovery remain insufficiently demonstrated.

Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The inspected authority is bounded to repository CI validation decisions and the selected in-process model’s training state. The evidence does not establish tenant-wide, data-store, infrastructure, or credential exposure; it also does not provide a complete production caller inventory.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — The inspected workflow retains tooling self-test and certified-map provenance checks with full-matrix fallbacks. Report code reads decision data and writes JSON or summary text rather than decision outputs. The report upload is non-gating, and the Build job has contents-read permission.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • inferred — Atomic live reconfiguration and partial-update recovery remain coverage gaps. The setter does not acquire the training sentinel, owner invalidation does not wait for an active step, and the fused catch can return failure after the update call without visible parameter rollback. These observations do not establish an exploitable race or a PR-introduced failure path.

- Select-Shards records a decision for BuildOnly paths (.editorconfig). They fell
  through the switch and vanished from the report's file list. A self-test pins
  it beside a runtime change, and it fails with the fix removed.
- Write-SelectionReport tracks whether selection evidence exists. A missing or
  partial selection.json reads "coverage selection unavailable", not "coverage
  would have selected 0".
- The report script exits 1 when it cannot write the report instead of
  swallowing the failure. The Select step throws on it and writes its fallback
  verdict; the Build job's report step is continue-on-error.
- Upload shard selection report is continue-on-error: an artifact-service
  hiccup must not fail Select shards and block the matrix.

… invokes

A tools/<name>/ change counted as "not executed by any mapped shard" and ran the
full matrix. That happened on 10 of 22 escalated PR runs in late September 2026,
though most tool directories are standalone programs no test project, source
file, solution or this workflow references.

Get-ChangedPathImpact now classifies a tools/<name>/ path as NonRuntime when a
git grep at HEAD finds no reference to that directory in tests/, src/, the
solution files, Directory.Build.* or sonarcloud.yml. Other workflows have their
own triggers and cannot change a shard here, so they are excluded. Otherwise,
and whenever the search itself fails, the old behaviour stands. tools/TestImpact
stays SelectionControl, and a loose file directly under tools/ is unchanged.

Replayed on #2136: tools/CoverageReportReview no longer escalates, and
tools/ModelPerfProbe (which sonarcloud.yml invokes) still does. Self-tests pin
both, plus TestImpact and the loose-file case.

…s installed

SetBaseTrainOptimizer swapped the optimizer but left the fused compiled plan, and
the moments inside it, committed. The next Train could not engage that plan with
the new optimizer, and the committed-plan guard forbids a silent eager fallback,
so any mid-run optimizer swap threw "Fused compiled training has already run
successfully, but the current step cannot engage the fused path".

Installing a different optimizer is a new trajectory the caller asked for, so it
now invalidates the compiled step and clears the committed flags, as
ResetBaseTrainOptimizerState already does. Re-installing the same instance is a
no-op.

Found by triaging test classes no CI shard selects:
TransformerEndToEndIntegrationTests.SetBaseTrainOptimizer_OverridesCtorDefault_OnTrainCall
had never run in CI. It now passes, as does the rest of the class (7/7).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
OptimizerReevaluationExecutesTheRealObjectiveAtCurrentWeights asserts that an
optimizer's re-evaluation runs the real objective again at the current weights
(two forward calls, a different loss). Its ObservingSgd test double made that
call, ReevaluateWithGradients(context) then ReevaluatedLoss = context.Loss,
through 2031bf8. 06831e6, an unrelated vision-language review commit,
deleted those two lines and left their comment behind. With no call, the test
saw one forward call and failed. No CI shard selects this class, so nothing
noticed.

This restores the double's own call; no assertion changes. The product's
re-evaluation path is correct: the class passes 13/13. Found while triaging the
test classes no shard runs (#2276).

MemFlow_ExplicitSmokeConstructorWinsOverAvailableParameterlessConstructor stubbed
MemFlow(architecture, int numFeatures, int numLayers) and asserted those named
arguments in the generated fixture. MemFlow has taken (architecture, MemFlowOptions?
options) since 25b4df5. The generator was corrected to emit
options: new MemFlowOptions { NumFeatures = 8, NumLayers = 2 }, the only form that
compiles against the real model, but the test's stub and assertions were not.

The stub now declares the real signature. The test asserts the same values, 8
features and 2 layers plus the unchanged 64x64x6 architecture, on the options
initializer through the file's existing AssertAssignedInteger helper (MelGAN's
pattern). The bounded-fixture contract is unchanged: 24/24 pass.

MGIETests scales the U-Net and VAE to fit the 120-second budget, as its doc
comment says, but left the MLLM at its defaults: LLaVA-7B (DecoderDim 4096 x 32
layers over a CLIP ViT-L tower). Clone_ShouldProduceIdenticalOutput materializes
and copies that encoder and timed out at 120 s on every run.

The fixture now sets the instruction encoder's widths, depths and vocabulary
small. The architecture is unchanged (vision tower -> LLM -> [IMG] tokens -> edit
head -> 768-wide context, which the U-Net requires), and the paper defaults in
MGIEOptions are untouched. All 13 tests pass in 17 s.

No CI shard selects this class, so the timeout had never surfaced; found while
triaging them (#2276).

NumberedVariantTestClass_DoesNotCoverItsShorterSibling expected the report's
TestedModelNames to be ["SAM2"]. The generator has written FullyQualifiedName
there since aaa175c (2026-09-09, "report untested models by fully-qualified
name", #2091), and this test was added afterwards (1daf3f5, 2026-09-23) with
the short name. No CI shard selects this class, so it had never run and failed
every time.

The assertion stays exact, ["global::Probe.SAM2"]: the numbered variant is the
only tested model and its shorter sibling SAM is not. 4/4 pass. Found while
triaging the test classes no shard runs (#2276).

…talled

Covers ed34b0f with a focused regression test in a namespace a CI shard
selects (UnitTests.Optimizers, Unit - 09). A tiny Transformer trains until the
fused plan commits (positive control: fused steps > 0), installs a different Adam
through SetBaseTrainOptimizer, and trains again. That must not throw and must
engage a fresh fused plan.

Control arm: with ed34b0f reverted the test fails on "Fused compiled training
has already run successfully, but the current step cannot engage the fused path".
With it, the test passes. Invalidating the plan resets the global fused-step
counter, so the post-swap phase is counted from zero.

The report's override line was inferred from whether selection.json existed. That
was wrong both ways:
- The post-merge delta path never runs the selector yet narrows legitimately, so
  it got a false "the warning above says why the full matrix runs".
- A check that escalated after a valid selection.json (an empty matrix, shards
  absent from the manifest, no ledger-producing shard) left the line empty.

The Select step now keeps $decisionReason. It starts empty, meaning the
selector's decision stands, and each override branch sets it: invalid map
provenance, untrusted tooling, unknown delta shards, delta reuse, unavailable
classification, invalid selector output, no certified map, unknown selected
shards, empty matrix, and no ledger-producing shard. The report receives it
directly.

…'s candidates

type-impact-plan.json lists candidates for every manifest shard. Select-AffectedTests
then intersects them with the chosen matrix, passes the whole selection through
when the plan is unresolved, and un-narrows the widest shards to fit the 1 MB
output limit. Rendering the plan alone therefore showed shards that never ran, and
"Narrowed = True" for shards that ran whole.

Select-AffectedTests now writes type-impact-effective.json on every exit: the
mode (narrowed or passthrough), the reason, and each shard that runs with its
narrowed state and class count. The report renders that and marks the old
plan-only view as candidates when the record is missing. Self-tests cover both:
a plan-narrowed shard that passed through shows as "whole shard", and a candidate
the matrix did not run is not listed. The effective file is uploaded with the
plan.

Both drew their initial weights from the process-wide random stream, whose
position depends on which tests ran earlier in the same process. xUnit randomizes
collection order per run, so each passed or failed by order:

- TransformerTrainingTraceTest.TraceOneStep_V4 failed every run alone (loss
  1.8254 -> 2.2704). It used Vaswani's default Noam warmup of 4000 steps, which
  keeps the learning rate near zero over its 100-step budget, and dropout 0.1,
  which makes a single training-mode loss noisy. It now uses the fixture
  settings the other Transformer training tests already use
  (TransformerEndToEndIntegrationTests.MakeArch): warmupSteps 10, dropout 0,
  seed 42.
- CategoricalCrossEntropyTapeIssue1191Tests...V8 runs five trials and requires
  4 of 5. Its comment said the Transformer exposed no init seed; it does now.
  Each trial gets its own fixed seed (1191 + trial): still five independent
  initializations, and the same 4-of-5 rule.

No assertion changes. TraceOneStep_V4 passes 5/5 alone, and the 1191 class 3/3.
Found while triaging test classes no CI shard selects (#2276).

…only the head

ForwardBackbone copied the [CLS] token out element by element into a fresh tensor, which no gradient
tape saw. Gradients stopped at the classification head: the feature tokenizer, every encoder layer
and the final LayerNorm stayed at their initial values (34 of 2,403 parameters moved per step; 2 of
the 20 trainable tensors received a gradient). The loss still fell, because the head alone can lower
it, so the convergence test passed. The token is now taken with Engine.TensorSlice + Reshape, as
VisionTransformer does, and ~2,130 parameters move.

TrainStep_UpdatesTheWholeNetwork_NotOnlyTheHead requires at least 80% of the parameters to move after
two steps (34 before the fix).

…e gradient tape

PiecewiseLinearEncodingLayer (Gorishniy, Rubachev and Babenko, NeurIPS 2022) had three defects the
invariant harness exposed once it was wired in:

- Its forward was a scalar loop writing into a rented tensor, so no tape saw it: no gradient reached
  the input or anything upstream.
- It computed min(x - b_{t-1}, b_t - x), a symmetric triangle clamped to [0, 1], which is not the
  paper's encoding. The paper's e_t is (x - b_{t-1}) / (b_t - b_{t-1}) clamped to [0, 1], with the
  first bin unclamped below and the last unclamped above.
- It marked its own gradient buffer [TrainableParameter], and made the bin boundaries learnable,
  which the paper does not do.

The encoding is now built from engine ops (broadcast, subtract, divide, tensor clamp) on
[batch, features, bins]; the T + 1 edges per feature are a persisted [Buffer] (saved, never trained);
FitBoundaries sets them to the training data's quantiles as the paper does, and the default stays
evenly spaced over [-2, 2] for standardized input. Nothing in src used the layer.

Tests: known answers for inside, below and above the edges; d/dx equal to 1/width of the active bin;
quantile fitting with a constant feature; edges are state, not trainable. The layer joins the
invariant harness, and LayerInvariantCoverageTests' ceiling drops to the measured 119 uncovered.

…ready runs on

AiDotNetEngine.Current is process-wide and every model reads it on each operation. On a CPU
configuration (AlwaysCpu, the CPU device type, the AIDOTNET_DISABLE_GPU opt-out) BuildAsync called
AiDotNetEngine.ResetToCpu(), which installs a NEW CpuEngine even when the process already runs on
one. Swapping engines under a model training on another thread loses that step's update: with one
thread replacing the engine while another trained FTTransformer, 3 of 20 steps moved under half of
the network, and the NeuralNetworks shard failed intermittently (FTTransformer learning nothing,
APNet2's gradient check off by 4 orders of magnitude).

The builder now replaces the engine only when it is not already exactly a CpuEngine. Why a
CPU-to-CPU engine swap corrupts a concurrent step is an AiDotNet.Tensors question, followed up there.

BuilderCpuEngineReuseTests: an AlwaysCpu or CPU-device configuration keeps the current CpuEngine
instance.

…me it

Consumers inline a const's value, so the IL type graph holds no reference to it and TypeImpact left
every file with an edited non-private const unresolved (10 of the 77 unresolved entries in the
completed pull request runs since 2026-09-26). The consumers do name the const in source: the
edited lines' declarator names are read from the diff ("const <type> A = ..., B = ..."), and every
C# file in the checkout that names one as a whole word (git grep -w, tracked and untracked, honouring
.gitignore) is treated as changed alongside the declaring type. A const line whose declaration
cannot be read, a failed search, or more than 2,000 consumers stays unresolved.

Self-test: the edited-const case now resolves and reaches LimitsTests, which reads the const; an
unreadable const line stays unresolved (19 cases pass).

…ffset and budget they replaced

e45350f moved the VisionLanguage conformance shards to ADNSHAPE_CONF_WINDOW, but Test-CiImpactWorkflow.ps1 still
required ADNSHAPE_CONF_OFFSET and ADNSHAPE_CONF_BUDGET on all 34 shards: 68 failures, and the build job runs it.

…ready on one

AiDotNetEngine.ResetToCpu installs a new CpuEngine on every call. 41 call sites in classes that run in parallel with
the rest of the suite reset it routinely, and every model reads the process-wide engine on each operation, so a reset
swapped the engine under a model training in another class and that step's update was lost. In the two Unassigned
shards it failed FusedOptimizerParityTests.LAMB_FusedMatchesEager_NoWorseThanAdam and
FTTransformerClassifierTests.Train_ReducesCrossEntropy_OnSeparableData_AndStaysFinite, each of which passes alone.
TestEngines.EnsureCpu keeps a plain CpuEngine that is already current, so a reset still undoes a GPU engine but no
longer replaces the CPU one under a running step.

…at names the files it checks

474f6fa classifies a .github file nothing reads as non-runtime by searching .github/ and tools/ for its name. That
search found Select-Shards.ps1 itself, whose comments and self-test name CODEOWNERS and dependabot.yml, so both stayed
full validation and the self-test failed ('CODEOWNERS, which no workflow reads, is not NonRuntime'). The classifier is
now left out of the search, and the old self-test case that expected dependabot.yml to escalate (it only did because
that case names it) now asserts it is non-runtime, as the rule's own comment says.

Conflicts, all in CI tooling and tests that master's #2276 also changed:
- Select-AffectedTests.ps1, Test-CiImpactWorkflow.ps1, GeneratedHeavyFixtureContractTests,
  TestScaffoldCoverageReportTests: master's side, a superset of or the same fix as this
  branch's.
- test-shards.yml: master's comment for the name-keyed conformance windows, with this
  branch's count. The dedupe here removes Donut, LayoutLMv3, Nougat and Pix2Struct from
  VisionLanguage (170 -> 166 models).

Follow-ups the merge needs to stay green:
- ModelContractConformanceTests.Windows.cs: drop the four removed models. Windows 4, 15, 20
  and 24 drop from 5 to 4 models, and no other model moves (the table is name-keyed).
  WindowCount stays 34. ConformanceWindowTableTests passes.
- test-shards.yml: BatchNormalizationSingleImageTests and
  BatchNormalizationLayoutAndRecalibrationTests, new on this branch, matched no shard.
  Master's inventory gate (Assert-ShardInventory.ps1) failed on them, so they join
  Unassigned - 02. The gate now reports 0 unassigned and the shard runs both (4 tests).

Verified: 472 generator and window tests pass, Select-Shards -SelfTest passes, and the
inventory gate passes.

Master gained #2276, which overlaps this branch's optimizer work. Resolutions:

- AMSGradOptimizer: master. Its default is the paper (Reddi et al. 2018, Algorithm 2) with a
  PyTorch option (AMSGradBiasCorrection), the agreed design. Every correction site goes
  through FirstMomentCorrection/SecondMomentCorrection, so this branch's hard-coded PyTorch
  correction is dropped.
- AMSGrad_TwoSteps_HandCalculated_PyTorchConvention keeps this branch's stronger two-step
  test and pins BiasCorrection = PyTorch, the formula it asserts. AMSGradBiasCorrectionTests
  pins the paper default.
- Adam (8 hunks): master. The same raw-v AMSGrad max, without the null-forgiving vMax!.
- Nadam: this branch's names (biasCorrectionMNext). The math is identical: both sides
  implement Dozat 2016's 1 - beta1^(t+1).
- SparseEmbeddingOptimizerHelpers.Nadam: master's explicit bc1Next parameter, which the
  merged caller already passes.
- NeuralNetworkBase.SetBaseTrainOptimizer: this branch's IsSameInstance invalidation. The
  same fix arrived from master as a second block after the assignment; that copy is
  removed, so the plan is invalidated once.
- CategoricalCrossEntropyTapeIssue1191Tests: this branch's per-trial seeds (ArchitectureFor).
- Directory.Packages.props: master's 0.134.0, which contains #1065's DecoupledWeightDecay.

Verified: the optimizer, AMSGrad, Nadam, fused, SetBaseTrainOptimizer, 1191, facade,
ChunkedMemoryStream and AdamCopyOnWrite filters pass, 2484 passed and 2 skipped (net10.0).

Master gained #2276, which overlaps this branch's optimizer work. Resolutions:

- AMSGradOptimizer: master. The default is the paper (Reddi et al. 2018, Algorithm 2) with a
  PyTorch option, and every correction site goes through
  FirstMomentCorrection/SecondMomentCorrection. This branch keeps the nullable model
  parameter. The reverse-path comment now names bc2 rather than (1 - beta2^t), which the
  paper default does not apply.
- FusedKernelParityTests (new on this branch): its AMSGrad case pins
  BiasCorrection = PyTorch. The theory asserts every case maps to the fused kernel, which
  implements PyTorch amsgrad=True. The paper default declines the fused path until the plan
  carries the exact betas (AiDotNet.Tensors #1079).
- FusedOptimizerParityTests: this branch's side, which drops the AMSGrad fact as a
  duplicate of that theory.
- OptimizerUpdateRulesDeepMathIntegrationTests: master's paper-default step 1. This
  branch's version asserted the PyTorch formula under default options.
- Nadam: this branch's names; the math is identical (Dozat 2016, 1 - beta1^(t+1)).
  SparseEmbeddingOptimizerHelpers.Nadam: master's explicit bc1Next, which the merged caller
  passes.
- NeuralNetworkBase.SetBaseTrainOptimizer: this branch's block, which also resets
  _fusedTrainingDisabled. Master's second copy of the invalidation is removed.
- Directory.Packages.props: master's 0.134.0.

Verified: the optimizer, AMSGrad, Nadam, fused, SetBaseTrainOptimizer and checkpoint
filters pass, 2826 of 2827 (net10.0). The one failure,
Issue1296LargeXTrainBatchingTests.CompileReplay_DeliversSpeedupVsEager (speedup 0.49x), ran
alongside a second 25-minute suite on the same machine. It passed 3 of 3 runs alone.
