-Isolated Cycle Actions — callable individually from UI or cron.
+Isolated Cycle Actions — callable individually from UI or cron, to decompose
+a full auto-cycle into steps runnable/inspectable one at a time.
 
-Decomposition of the full auto_cycle into 8 independent actions:
-
-  ACTION 1 — check-market-events    ← IMPLEMENTED HERE
-    Sources: RSS news + FRED eco surprises + MA crossovers + institutional reports
-    Output : new market_events created in DB
-
-  ACTION 2 — refresh-price-data      (planned)
-    Sources: yfinance OHLCV for all watchlist instruments
-    Output : price_data table updated
-
-  ACTION 3 — compute-indicators      (planned)
-    Sources: price_data in DB
-    Output : ma20/50/100/200 + RSI + BB + ATR stored in instrument_indicators
-
-  ACTION 4 — evaluate-impacts        (planned)
-    Sources: market_events without impact scores
-    Output : GPT-evaluated impact_score + affected_assets stored
-
-  ACTION 5 — generate-signals        (planned)
-    Sources: indicators + market_events + portfolio
-    Output : trading signals for each instrument
-
-  ACTION 6 — update-regime           (planned)
-    Sources: signals + macro context
-    Output : current macro_regime classification
-
-  ACTION 7 — snapshot-portfolio      (planned)
-    Sources: portfolio positions + current prices
-    Output : risk metrics (VaR, PnL, delta) snapshot stored
-
-  ACTION 8 — generate-report         (planned)
-    Sources: all of the above
-    Output : daily cycle report PDF/JSON
+  ACTION 1  — check-market-events    : RSS news + FRED surprises + MA crossovers + institutional reports -> new market_events
+  ACTION 2  — bootstrap-macro        : seed historical macro/geopolitical events (idempotent)
+  ACTION 3  — bootstrap-eco          : seed economic calendar events (idempotent)
+  ACTION 4  — bootstrap-categories   : seed default impact categories (idempotent)
+  ACTION 5  — bootstrap-ma           : historical MA50/100/200 crossover detection -> market_events (idempotent, >100 events skip unless force)
+  ACTION 6  — refresh-price-data     : yfinance OHLCV for the watchlist -> price_data_cache
+  ACTION 7  — compute-indicators     : MA/RSI/BB/ATR per watchlist ticker -> instrument_indicators
+  ACTION 8  — evaluate-impacts       : AI-score market_events not yet in instrument_impacts
+  ACTION 9  — generate-signals       : technical desk signals (check-market-events sources=[technical]) + wavelet scan
+  ACTION 10 — update-regime          : macro gauges -> scenario scoring -> regime history -> cluster reclassification
