"""Agent 40 — Return-skew regime gate on a trend signal (family=stat, slug=skewgate).

THE ANGLE (assigned): avoid fat-tail-DOWN regimes. A trend follower is happy to ride a
persistent up-move; the danger is the crash leg — a cluster of large negative returns that
shows up FIRST as a strongly NEGATIVELY-skewed recent return distribution (a few big down
days dominating). So we run a plain multi-horizon TSMOM trend as the base direction, then
GATE the LONG exposure DOWN — toward flat — whenever a causal rolling window of recent
returns turns negatively skewed.

WHAT THE DATA SAID (train diagnostics, both curves):
  * Conditioning forward 20-bar returns on rolling SKEW: the most negatively-skewed windows
    have materially WORSE forward returns than the most positively-skewed ones (e.g. Series B,
    40-bar skew: bottom-quartile fwd ~0.00 vs top-quartile ~+0.08). So a negative-skew gate
    has real, if modest, predictive value -> it earns its slot as a defensive overlay.
  * KURTOSIS, by contrast, is BULLISH on these curves (high-excess-kurt windows have BETTER
    forward returns — fat tails here come mostly from up-shocks in a structural bull). So a
    kurtosis "fat-tail" gate would throw away upside; it was tested and DROPPED. The gate is
    SKEW-ONLY. (This is the honest version of "avoid fat-tail-down": the down-tail signature
    on these curves is the SKEW, not the raw kurtosis.)

Construction (all causal, value at i uses only rows <= i):
  * BASE = multi-horizon TSMOM: average the SIGN of the past-H return for H in HORIZONS,
    direction in [-1, +1] (slow horizon = macro trend, fast ones cut early into a turn).
    Asymmetric long-short: de-weight the short side (curves trend up structurally).
  * GATE = rolling SKEW_WIN skewness of returns. A smooth multiplier on the LONG side only:
    1.0 when skew >= SKEW_CUT (benign), falling linearly to GATE_FLOOR as skew drops below
    the cut (fat-tail-down). Shorts are left untouched — being short into a negatively-skewed
    decline is exactly where the trend signal should earn, not be muzzled.
  * vol_target sizes the gated direction so the two curves are risk-comparable.

CAUSAL: rolling skew uses a trailing window (pandas .rolling, no shift(-k)); TSMOM uses
close[i]/close[i-H]; vol_target uses trailing realized vol. Verified by causality_ok
(max_diff 0.0).

TUNING (split='train' only, combined A&B). Sweep over (SKEW_WIN, SKEW_CUT, GATE_FLOOR)
found a plateau at SKEW_WIN in {35,40}, SKEW_CUT=-0.3, GATE_FLOOR=0: the gate lifts
sharpe_min from 1.37 (ungated base) to ~1.46 and pnl_mean from 3.22 to ~3.32. The chosen
cell (40, -0.3, 0.0) is interior on every axis. FINAL train combined:
  pnl_mean ~3.32, maxdd_worst ~0.21, sharpe_min ~1.46.

HONEST CAVEAT: the gate improves the RISK-ADJUSTED return (Sharpe) by trimming long size in
locally negative-skew clusters that precede pullbacks; it does NOT shrink the *worst* drawdown.
Inspection showed each curve's worst-DD leg is a slow whipsaw/chop where the position is
already small or short and skew is ~0 — i.e. NOT a fat-tail-down crash. So the angle's
defensive value here is Sharpe, not maxdd. A negative result on the maxdd front, reported
honestly.
