FCST-03: yesterday's prices, flagged as yesterday's, and unable to move anything
§8.3 fills the hours a day-ahead feed has not published yet with yesterday's
profile and flags them provisional, and forbids any irreversible action on such
a price. The whole risk of this ticket is one line - a carried point and a
published point are three fields and a bool, so `provisional=y.provisional`
copies yesterday's False onto today's guess and produces stale data presented as
current. That is SAFETY-18's frozen-but-fresh meter one layer up.

So the flag is never passed through. Carried points come from a constructor with
no provisional parameter; published points pass through BY IDENTITY, so no copy
exists that could lose one; an audit re-derives the expected flag for every
emitted point and raises rather than repairing; and the check walks the module's
own AST so the pass-through idiom cannot come back looking ordinary. A published
point may itself be provisional (eneco_eddy's imbalance print is), so the rule
for a published hour is "whatever the feed said", never False.

The fill keys on the Brussels wall clock rather than t-24h, so the 23- and
25-hour days are right; a late publication rebuilds the series, moving the
number and the flag together.

AC2 and AC3 landed on TARIFF-03's existing verdict surface rather than beside
it. Refusal 3 became "fewer than two FIRM hours" - refusing on "any point is
provisional" would have switched arbitrage off every morning on every dynamic
site - and refusal 5 is new: the spread must clear a threshold widened by the
widest active uncertainty source (max, never a product). The permitting variant
now refuses to be constructed around a provisional point at all, and the
cheap-window flag became per-hour for the same reason.

The irreversible action is a value carrying the hours it commits, derived from
maintenance.py's own DRAIN_TIMEOUT_MIN; the gate blocks a maintenance drain
whose window reaches into a carried hour, and the phase machine stays idle. It
is the price-justified entry point only - a gate that blocked on no_data would
stop the monthly cycle on every default install.

Zero new config options; TEST-14's signature scan ported to cover both Gate's
and Arbitrage's constructors, closing _Refused.reason's open hole.

"""FCST-03 - the hours the feed has not published yet, and what may not rest on them.
WHERE THIS LIVES. specs.md §2.2 puts price ingest under `ems/ingest/prices/`.
That layout does not exist and is not being built; the product owner's decision
of 2026-08-30 is that everything ships in `goodwe_controller/app/`. The
BEHAVIOUR §8.3 describes is unchanged and still authoritative - only the path
moved. Read `ems/...` as `app/...`.
§8.3, in full, because every line below is one clause of it:
"Day-ahead prices arrive once daily. Until they do, unknown hours use
yesterday's profile and are flagged `provisional: true` - and NO
IRREVERSIBLE ACTION MAY BE TAKEN ON A PROVISIONAL PRICE. Real-time /
imbalance products are treated as high-volatility: arbitrage thresholds
widen."
Three separate things, and this module owns the first two. The third - the
widening arithmetic - lives in price.py beside the product enum it is derived
from (`Uncertainty`, `widen_factor`, `required_spread`), and is spent by
`static_tariff.TariffPlan.arbitrage()`, because that is where the verdict this
repo already refuses to hand out casually is produced. FCST-03 added a refusal
to that existing ladder rather than a second mechanism beside it.
THE DEFECT THIS MODULE IS SHAPED BY: A COPY THAT KEEPS THE WRONG FLAG
=====================================================================
A point filled from yesterday and a point published this morning are the SAME
SHAPE. Three floats and a bool; only the bool tells them apart. And the natural
way to write a carry-forward fill is:
PricePoint(start=t, eur_per_kwh=y.eur_per_kwh, provisional=y.provisional)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
which copies yesterday's `False` onto today's guess and produces exactly the
thing the ticket exists to prevent: STALE DATA PRESENTED AS CURRENT. It reads
fine, it type-checks, it round-trips through §9.3's JSON, and every price on
the status page looks like a price. This is the meter-side SAFETY-18 defect one
layer up: the reading arrives on time, looks fresh, and is wrong - and a
freshness check that only asks "did something arrive" cannot see it.
So the flag is not passed through anywhere in this file:
* A CARRIED POINT IS BUILT BY `_carried()`, WHICH HAS NO PARAMETER FOR THE
FLAG. `provisional=True` is a literal in one place. There is no argument a
caller can pass, no keyword to forget, and no variable that could hold
yesterday's value at the moment the point is constructed.
* A PUBLISHED POINT IS NEVER COPIED AT ALL. It is passed through BY IDENTITY -
the object the provider produced is the object in the output series - so
there is no copy that could lose or gain a flag. `filled.points[i] is
fetched.points[j]` is a checkable property, and test_price_forecast.py
checks it.
* `_audit()` RE-DERIVES the expected flag for every output point from the set
of hours the feed actually published, and RAISES if any point disagrees.
It is a post-condition, not a filter: it never fixes a flag, because a
module that quietly corrects its own provenance is one whose provenance
cannot be trusted.
* and test_price_forecast.py walks THIS FILE'S AST and fails if any
`PricePoint(...)` in it passes anything but a literal for `provisional`, so
the pass-through idiom cannot come back in a later edit and pass review by
looking ordinary.
⚠️ "PUBLISHED" DOES NOT MEAN "FIRM". `eneco_eddy` is an imbalance product whose
current-quarter print is genuinely provisional and says so per point (§9.2,
TARIFF-02). Such a point is published AND provisional, and the audit's rule for
a published point is "the flag is whatever the feed said", never "False". A
provenance check that forced published points to False would be a bug that
looks like a guarantee.
THE FILL, AND WHY IT KEYS ON THE WALL CLOCK
===========================================
For every whole hour in the requested horizon that the feed has not published,
take yesterday's value for THE SAME BRUSSELS WALL-CLOCK HOUR - not `t - 86400
s`. On the two days a year that matter those are different instants, and the
difference is not academic: a 23-hour day has no 02:00 at all and a 25-hour day
has two, so a fill that subtracts a fixed 24 h shifts every carried hour by one
across a transition and misprices the whole day in a way nothing reports.
On the 25-hour day the two 02:00 hours - `02:00+02:00` and `02:00+01:00` - both
key to local hour 2 and are BOTH filled from yesterday's single 02:00 value.
That is deliberate: they are both guesses, they are both flagged, and nothing
irreversible may rest on either. If yesterday itself was a 25-hour day, the
first of its two 02:00 points is the one used, deterministically.
An hour with no published price AND no yesterday value is LEFT OUT of the
series. It is not filled with a neighbour, a mean, or a zero. §11.4 applies to
that hour - `_Series.at()` raises `Absence` for it - and the caller that wanted
a tariff for the whole horizon falls back to the static profile (TARIFF-03),
which is the row the spec actually writes for "no price data". If NOTHING can
be produced, the result is `PriceRead.no_data(reason)` and not an empty series,
because an empty series is not constructible on purpose (price.py trap 3).
AC2: THE IRREVERSIBLE-ACTION GATE
=================================
"The distinction should be an explicit property of the action, not a judgement
call at each call site" - so an irreversible action is a value, `Irreversible`,
carrying the number of hours it COMMITS. `price_permits()` looks at exactly
those hours and answers with a `Gate` variant that carries the evidence on the
permitting arm and a reason on the blocking one, the `_Outcome` shape price.py
borrowed from `sim/riglock.py`.
The shipped example is the maintenance drain (§12): starting one commits hours
of forced discharge that cannot be undone if the price turns out to have been
yesterday's. Its commitment window is DERIVED from `maintenance.DRAIN_TIMEOUT_MIN`
rather than typed here, so the gate and the phase machine cannot drift apart.
⚠️ WHAT DOES NOT GO THROUGH THIS GATE, AND WHY THAT MATTERS MORE THAN WHAT
DOES. The maintenance cycle is a CALENDAR obligation (§12.2: a cycle that
silently never fires is indistinguishable from one that is not due yet), and a
site with `price_provider: off` - the shipped default - has no price series at
all. Routing every maintenance start through a gate that blocks on `no_data`
would stop the monthly cycle on every default install, permanently and
silently: the exact failure §12 opens by naming. So `begin_phase()` is the
entry point for a start that is being JUSTIFIED BY A PRICE, main.py's existing
calendar path is untouched by this ticket, and OPT-04/MAINT-05 own the decision
of which one a site runs. Nothing here disables anything that runs today.
Reversible actions - ordinary self-consumption modulation, the loop that
actually holds the grid at zero - are not gated at all and cannot be: §6 says
absent machinery must not disable the loop.
