Lattora 2.1.0 has four compiled-in algorithms. It has no public plugin loader or algorithm registration command. The shared contract #23 and reviewed onboarding #26 remain planned.

Start with a small source change

  1. Trace the existing engine path. Check its callers and validator assumptions.
  2. Define the algorithm/model identity, objective, units, parameters, seeds, feasibility rules and budget.
  3. Reuse the ledger, evaluator, repair, simulation, metrics and output writers.
  4. Check a tiny known-answer case, invalid placements, deterministic seeds and budget accounting.
  5. Run a bounded paired trial through the packaged path. Keep failures, hashes, settings and validation evidence.
A new algorithm or model needs a separately identified experimental protocol/schema. The frozen four-algorithm matrix and CSV contracts do not expand automatically. Keep frozen behavior and saved evidence intact. Correctness checks do not establish novelty or superiority.

Scope the research work

Current Stress varies scale and search effort under one static model. General scenario families and selectable objectives remain planned. Reservation limits are not network/storage contention measurements. A zero-SLA model cannot demonstrate SLA optimization quality. Held-out tuning must predeclare separate tuning/confirmation inputs, selection rules, compute budgets and failed-trial treatment. Frozen sensitivity does not prove optimal N/T settings. Follow the capability roadmap and contribution gates. Update this guide when the implemented contract changes.
