fix(chart): lock synastry chart calls and stop overwriting the A/B note

The bounced contract still looked for the old chart calls. The research script now writes to a temp directory unless --out is set. Quota splits stay unimplemented.

+## BUG-1333 | 合盘排盘漏关外部概览，而且两张盘排队算
+
+- 状态：fixed-pending-verify
+- 首次发现 / 最近更新：2026-10-13 / 2026-10-15
+- 来源：issue #64。任务书 `docs/tasks/TASK-api-chart-subprocess-gate-20261013.md` T1、T3、T4。
+- 现象：合盘每次要排两张盘，都没关掉用不上的外部概览。每张盘多起两个后台进程，而且两张盘一张一张排。名额占满时，日志里看不出是谁占着。
+- 触发条件：打开合盘。排盘接口本身默认仍走完整链，给报告和外部调用留着。
+- 根因：合盘这条路由没跟上「只读盘面就关掉外部概览」的约定，也没有合同测试拦住。名额按路径一刀切，不带 skip 的排盘默认不占名额。
+- 修复：合盘两次排盘都带上关闭外部概览，两张盘同时排；婚恋分支的两张分盘也同时排。前端里凡是发给排盘接口的请求体，都要带这个开关，由源码合同守着。另加一个默认关闭的开关：打开后，不带 skip 的同步排盘才占一个重计算名额。名额占满时记一行日志，只写被拒的路径和当前占用者的路径、已占秒数，不写请求正文。
+- 验证：`frontend/tests/synastry-chart-skip.test.ts`、`frontend/tests/chart-request-skip-contract.test.ts`、`tests/test_api_chart_subprocess_gate.py`、`tests/test_api_heavy_compute_gate.py`。合盘耗时见 `docs/testing/api-chart-subprocess-gate-ab-20261013.md`。`tests/test_supabase_user_data_contract.py` 锁住合盘路由向 `/api/chart` 请求本人和对方两张盘，且两次都带 `skip_vedastro_main_entry_overview: true`。
+- 防复发：源码合同要求 `frontend/src/app/api` 和 `frontend/src/lib` 里发往 `/api/chart` 的请求体带 `skip_vedastro_main_entry_overview: true`。Python 合同按路由原文锁住这两次调用和这个开关。`/api/chart` 仍不在重计算路径名单里。

+
+- 状态：fixed-pending-verify
+- 首次发现 / 最近更新：2026-10-13 / 2026-10-15
+- 来源：issue #64。任务书 T2。
+- 现象：每份个人报告会起大约 10 个后台进程。其中参照引擎没装时，年度回放注定失败，但仍要付启动开销。另一段静态校验和用户的盘无关，每份报告都重跑。
+- 触发条件：生成个人长报告，且这台机器没有安装 PyJHora。装了参照引擎的开发机上，隔离用的子进程仍然要留着。
+- 根因：子进程是为了把参照引擎隔离开，这是对的；父进程却没有先问「这台机器根本没装」。静态校验文件被挂在每份报告上，没有按文件变化复用。
+- 修复：父进程先看一次能不能导入参照引擎，不能就不起子进程，返回和「子进程在没装时」相同的结果。解释器查找和静态校验各在进程内记一次；校验文件变了会重算。不缓存任何出生资料。装了参照引擎时仍走子进程。
+- 验证：`tests/test_api_chart_subprocess_gate.py` 对照 `tests/fixtures/api-chart-subprocess-gate/`。生产上的收益大约是每份报告 0.5 到 0.9 秒、少掉那几个注定失败的进程，不是排查时在装了参照引擎的机器上看到的 5 秒。本机没有 PyJHora，实测见 `docs/testing/api-chart-subprocess-gate-ab-20261013.md`。

+- 实际基线：`origin/staging` `9274491681f6fcacbc87e3797441d2c5221de874`（任务书写的 `77057a819` 更早）

+- BUG-1333、BUG-1334。`docs/BUG_HISTORY.md` 后半是同一份历史的副本，两处都补上了。
+
+## 做了什么
+
+1. 合盘两次排盘都带 `skip_vedastro_main_entry_overview: true`，不改 `synastryBirthPayload`。两张盘和婚恋分支的两张九分盘都改成同时发出。任一失败仍走原来的 `catch`。
+2. 前端 `app/api` 和 `lib` 里发往 `/api/chart` 的请求体必须带这个开关。白名单是空的。
+3. 父进程先看一次能不能导入 PyJHora。不能就不起年度回放和 Tajika 的子进程，返回和「子进程在没装时」相同的结果。样本在 `tests/fixtures/api-chart-subprocess-gate/`，来自本机真实子进程（当时 `find_spec("jhora")` 为 `None`）。装了之后仍走子进程。
+4. 解释器查找（含「没找到」）和静态 oracle 校验在进程内各记一次。校验按文件路径、mtime、大小作键。不缓存出生资料。
+5. 开关 `JYOTISH_GATE_CHART_OVERVIEW` 默认关。只有把它设为 `1` 时，不带 skip、也不是异步排队的 `/api/chart` 才占一个重计算名额。`/api/chart` 没有加进 `HEAVY_COMPUTE_PATHS`。预热咨询不占名额的判断挪进了闸门模块。
+6. 名额占满时打一行日志：被拒路径、当前占用者路径、已占秒数。不写请求正文。

+
+## 改既有断言
+
+无。原值 / 新值 / 原因：没有改旧断言。
+
+## 偏离
+
+- `/api/health` 没有加 `heavy_compute` 字段。状态函数 `heavy_compute_status()` 在闸门模块里，接到健康检查会让主文件变长。任务书允许砍掉这一项。
+- 星盘名额开关默认关。打开会让不带 skip 的外部调用可能拿到 429，任务书要求先有 A/B 再提议，本单不打开。
+- O2、O3、O4 没有实现。
+- 报告对照不是 staging 源码另导入，而是本分支把「已安装」强制打开。静态校验缓存两边都在，所以耗时差只反映那 6 个子进程。
+- 合盘子进程是 2 → 0，不是任务书举例的 4 → 0。这台机器两张盘合计只数到 2 次 `subprocess.run`。
+- 没有「装了 PyJHora」的计时。父进程强制当成已安装时，子进程仍会因为没装而失败，这一组用来代表「不短路就要付启动开销」。
+
+## 环境缺口
+
+- 本机 `.venv`：`sys.executable` 是工作树的 `python.exe`；`shutil.which("python3")` 是 Windows 应用商店占位；`python3.14` 没有；`find_spec("jhora")` 是 `None`。
+- Docker 在，没有本地 `jyotisha-api` 镜像，镜像里的解释器路径没有核实。
+- 生产装了 VedAstro、并且开了外网时，不带 skip 的排盘真实耗时本机测不到。
+- 名额被占满后连带拒绝的真实频率，要等日志上了 staging 再看。
+
+## 需拍板
+
+轻重任务要不要分开限流，本单不改。模拟里，让咨询少被拒，校正就会多被拒；给咨询单独开池会让同时在跑的个数超过 2。要改规则需要另立一单。
+
+## 默认值
+
+- `JYOTISH_GATE_CHART_OVERVIEW` 默认关。
+- 合盘 skip 和报告短路没有开关。
+
+## 2026-10-15 打回修复
+
+合盘路由的合同跟上了新写法：仍锁本人和对方各请求一次排盘，并锁住关闭外部概览。对照脚本默认写到系统临时目录，只有带 `--out` 才写指定文件，不再覆盖已入库的记录。业务代码没改。名额配额仍不实现。没有新 bug 编号，补在 BUG-1333 的两处副本上。
+
+| 检查 | 命令 | 结果 |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| 用户数据合同 | `.venv\Scripts\python.exe -m pytest tests/test_supabase_user_data_contract.py -q` | 8 passed，退出码 0 |
+| 脚本默认路径 | 调用 `resolve_record_path` | 默认不在仓库内，也不是已入库的 json；`--out` 指向传入路径 |
+| 源码文本检索 | `tests` 与 `frontend/tests` 里的合盘路由、`postPython("/api/chart"`、`postPython("/api/varga_full"` | 只有这一条合同在断言旧写法，已改。其它命中是在读路由文件，没有断言旧的两次调用。分盘前缀仍匹配，没改 |
+| 类型检查 | 在 `frontend` 下 `node_modules\.bin\tsc --noEmit -p .` | 退出码 0 |
+| lint | 在 `frontend` 下 `npm run lint` | 退出码 0，0 error，123 条原有 warning |
+
+原值：`postPython("/api/chart", selfPayload)` 与 `postPython("/api/chart", partnerPayload)`。新值：两次调用都展开对应 payload，并带 `skip_vedastro_main_entry_overview: true`。原因：合盘改为同时排两张盘并关掉用不上的外部概览，合同要锁住这两次请求和这个开关，不放宽。
+
+偏离：先合并了 `origin/staging` `1de3cc307be9134a3b8d1d606c738c1468414118`。相对打回 SHA `336286e4`，`frontend/src` 里多出来的是数据访问层那一单，不是这次修复改的。技能目录下的同名脚本没改，它的输出根不是仓库的 `docs/testing`。

+**根因**：`frontend/scripts/research/answer-effort-probe.mts` 约 186 行 `new URL("../../tests/fixtures/answer-effort-switch-20261013.json", import.meta.url)`。web 镜像只复制 `frontend/src` 与 `frontend/scripts`，`next build` 会类型检查它们——推上 staging 后镜像构建会失败（BUG-1140；#58、#62 已因同一形状各打回一次）。
+
+## 2. 修法要求
+
+1. 把 `answer-effort-probe.mts` 挪到 `frontend/tests/answer-effort-probe.mts`（文件名不得以 `.test.ts` / `.test.tsx` 结尾），路径改相对；同步改 PROGRESS 与 `docs/testing/answer-effort-ab-20261013.md` 里的命令。

+## 3. 非阻断提醒（不要求本轮改，写进 PROGRESS 即可）
+
+开关打开时，`prepareStep` 返回的 `providerOptions` 来自 `agentGenerationSettings(model, { thinking: "enabled", ... })`。确认它不会把基础流选项里原有的 `providerOptions`（思考预算、缓存等）整体覆盖掉；若会覆盖，在 BLOCKED.md 记下，等有模型 key 的 A/B 一并核对。
+
+## 4. 验收标准

+- 执行方：Grok，同一分支续做（先 merge 最新 `origin/staging`，不改写已推历史）
+- BUG 编号：沿用本单编号
+
+## 1. 验收结论：内容通过，Python 全量多出 1 条失败
+
+| 检查 | 结果 | 证据 |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| 合盘带 skip、两两并发 | 通过 | Claude 在 Linux 复跑 `scripts/research/api_chart_subprocess_ab.py`：串行 1.19 s / 4 个子进程 → 并发带 skip 0.015 s / 0 个，摘要逐字节一致 |

+
+**根因**：这条 Python 合同按源码文本检查 `frontend/src/app/api/synastry/route.ts` 里的 `postPython("/api/chart", selfPayload)`。本单把它改成了 `Promise.all` 里的 `postPython("/api/chart", { ...selfPayload, skip_vedastro_main_entry_overview: true })`，合同没跟着改（AGENTS.md §7.8；Python 测试也会读前端源码，所以前端改动要 grep `tests/` 和 `frontend/tests/` 两处）。

+
+1. 改 `tests/test_supabase_user_data_contract.py` 那条断言，按 §7.3 写「原值 / 新值 / 原因」三栏，**意图不放宽**：仍要锁住「合盘路由向 Python `/api/chart` 请求本人和对方两张盘」，新断言要同时锁住带 `skip_vedastro_main_entry_overview: true`；该测试里其它 token（如 ashtakoot 调用）不动。
+2. `grep -rn "synastry/route\|postPython(\"/api/chart\"\|postPython(\"/api/varga_full\"" tests frontend/tests`，其它按源码文本断言的同样处理。

+# TASK · 星盘页上升行无星宿、表头错位、大运卡左边线（issue #53 第二轮）
+
+- 日期：2026-10-15
+- 来源：issue #53，产品负责人 10-15 在 staging 星盘页反馈：D1 本命与月亮盘的上升行「星宿 / 宿主 / pada / 状态」全是「—」；分盘表「庙旺」表头与内容不对齐；大运卡左侧那条线要去掉
+- 执行方：**Grok（Windows + Docker）**，分支 `codex/chart-ascendant-row-20261015`，只推这个分支
+- 验收：Claude（Linux）
+- BUG 编号：开工时核对 `docs/BUG_HISTORY.md` 最大号（写作时为 BUG-1350）；**BUG-1351 已被 issue #65 的分支占用，本单从 BUG-1352 起**
+
+## 1. 基线
+
+`origin/staging` `10d0c4bba`。
+
+## 2. 事故实证与根因
+
+### A · 上升行星宿 / 宿主 / pada 为空（D1 与月亮盘同因）——BUG-1201 修复从未打通
+
+- 引擎正确：`scripts/jyotish_engine.py::compute_chart_data`（约 12378 行）给上升加了 `**_nakshatra_fields(asc_deg)`；`scripts/domain_calculation_service.py::compute_chart`（约 242 行）原样传出。
+- **`/api/chart` 把它们丢了**：`scripts/jyotish_api_server.py::_compute_chart_sync` 约 6660–6666 行重建 `result['ascendant']`，只留 `sign / sign_idx / degree / degree_in_sign / lon`；`result['modules']['chart']['ascendant']` 用的是同一个字典。该段来自 06-24 的 `494e3870`，BUG-1201 的 `ae18952e` 没碰它。虚构盘（1990-06-15 12:00 北京）实测 `_compute_chart_sync` 返回的上升没有任何星宿键。
+- 前端映射没问题：`frontend/src/lib/chart-view-mapper.ts::ascendantRow`（约 390–409 行）读 `nakshatra / nakshatra_pada / nakshatra_lord`，缺失时按设计回落「—」。月亮盘复用同一个 `view.vedic.ascendant`（`chart-vedic-tab.tsx` 约 351–355 行）。
+- **不是缓存问题**：服务器缓存 900 s、前端 5 分钟，`cache_schema_version` 已是 6；BUG-1201 那次把 4→5 也没用，因为接口输出根本没变。
+- **为什么没拦住**：`tests/test_report_chart_blank_columns.py` 只调 `compute_chart_data`；前端 golden `frontend/tests/fixtures/chart-view-golden.json` 取自 `domain_calculation_service.compute_chart` 而不是接口真实响应，又手工补了 `_nakshatra_fields`——违反 AGENTS.md §7.4「合同 fixture 必须来自真实引擎响应」，所以丢字段的那一层从没被测到。
+
+### B · 上升行「状态」写「—」
+
+`chart-vedic-tab.tsx::AscendantRow` 约 99 行写死 `<td>—</td>`，注释与 `frontend/DESIGN.md` 约 1181 行写「上升没有尊贵，状态格写「—」」——这是当时的有意设计，不是回归。产品负责人这次把它算作「没数据」。
+
+### C · 表头与内容不对齐
+
+`frontend/src/app/globals.css` 约 5619–5623 行把 `.chart-page-planet-table` 的所有 `th / td` 设为左对齐；约 5658 行只把 `td.chart-page-planet-mid` 居中；对应的 `<th scope="col">` 没有这个类，于是表头靠左、内容居中。所有 `.chart-page-planet-table` 都有：D1 / 月亮盘的「速度、宿主、pada」，分盘的「庙旺、同位」，行运的「速度」，Bhava 的「换宫」。
+
+### D · 大运卡左边线
+
+`globals.css` 约 5774–5778 行 `.chart-page-dasha-period.is-current { …; box-shadow: inset 2px 0 0 var(--color-focus); }`（`--color-focus` 是陶土色），挂在当前大运上（默认展开的那一张，`chart-dasha-tab.tsx` 约 115 行）。来自 `1e3570b4`；`frontend/DESIGN.md`「大运 Tab」一节没写，也没有测试引用。
+
+## 3. 决策记录
+
+- 产品负责人在 issue #53 授权修复上面四项。
+- **B（按推荐先定，产品不同意回一句即改）**：上升行「状态」改写「不适用」，与分盘表上升「庙旺」格（BUG-1099）、报告上升行（BUG-1314）同一口径。**这推翻 `frontend/DESIGN.md` 约 1181 行「状态格写「—」」**，DESIGN.md 同步改。
+- **D（按推荐先定）**：只去掉左边那条线，当前大运的浅底与细边框保留，用来标「现在走的是这一段」。
+- 不推翻 BUG-1201 的设计（上升行要有星宿 / 宿主 / pada），这次是把它真正打通；记为新 BUG「复发自 BUG-1201（修复未打通接口层）」，并在 BUG-1201 记录里补一行更正其验证结论。
+
+## 4. 硬红线
+
+1. `scripts/jyotish_api_server.py`：类方法数与 `JyotishAPIHandler.__new__` 伪造点不得增长（`tests/test_api_server_growth_contract.py`；注释里写这个词也算）；只在 `_compute_chart_sync` 里补字段。
+2. 不改引擎数值；不改 `_nakshatra_fields`、`compute_chart_data`。
+3. 合同 fixture 必须来自**接口真实响应**（§7.4）；不得手工补字段。
+4. 改既有断言写「原值 / 新值 / 原因」三栏；开工先 grep（§7.8，Python 测试也会读前端源码）：
+   `grep -rn "chart-page-planet-mid\|AscendantRow\|上升没有尊贵\|is-current\|chart-view-golden\|ascendant\b" frontend/tests tests | grep -v node_modules`
+   已知：`frontend/tests/chart-varga-table.test.tsx` 约 101–103 行断言上升行末尾 `<td>—</td>`；`frontend/tests/fixtures/chart-d1-table-baseline.html`；`chart-page-view.test.tsx`、`chart-page-hook.test.ts`。
+5. `frontend/scripts/**`、`frontend/src/**` 不得从 `frontend/tests/**` 导入或读文件（BUG-1140，近期已 5 次打回）。交回前必须本机跑 `npx tsx --test tests/runtime-sources-no-test-imports.test.ts`。
+6. 不碰 `frontend/src/app/(app)/page.tsx`；不改 `.gitea/**`；不动数据库；不升级依赖。
+
+## 5. 任务分解
+
+### T1 · 接口带出上升的星宿字段（新 BUG，复发自 BUG-1201）
+
+- `_compute_chart_sync` 重建 `result['ascendant']` 时，从 `ascendant_data` 带上 `nakshatra`、`nakshatra_pada`、`nakshatra_lord`（引擎已有就原样带；没有就调 `_nakshatra_fields(lon)`）；`cache_schema_version` 6 → 7。
+- 验收：
+  - 新回归测试**经过 `/api/chart` 处理函数**（用现有测试里已有的调用方式，不得新增 `JyotishAPIHandler.__new__`）：虚构盘的响应 `ascendant` 有三个字段，且等于 `_nakshatra_fields(lon)`；`modules.chart.ascendant` 同样有。
+  - 用这次的**接口真实响应**重新生成 `chart-view-golden.json` 的上升部分，`fixtureProvenance` 写明命令；删掉手工补字段的那一步。
+  - 前端：D1 与月亮盘上升行渲染出星宿、宿主、pada（测试断言具体值，不是只断言「不是 —」）。
+
+### T2 · 上升行状态「不适用」
+
+- `AscendantRow` 状态格改「不适用」；DESIGN.md 约 1181 行同步改；`chart-varga-table.test.tsx` 与 baseline html 按三栏改。
+
+### T3 · 表头对齐
+
+- 给居中列对应的 `<th scope="col">` 加 `chart-page-planet-mid`（或用列选择器），让表头与内容同为居中；涉及 D1 / 月亮盘、分盘、行运、Bhava 四类表。8 列表的 markup 若被 DESIGN.md 约 1195 行写成「冻结」，改用 CSS 选择器、不改 markup，并在 DESIGN.md 记一句。
+- 验收：渲染测试断言每张表里居中列的 `th` 与 `td` 同为居中（类名或计算后的选择器）；DESIGN.md 更新。
+
+### T4 · 去掉大运卡左边线
+
+- 删 `.chart-page-dasha-period.is-current` 的 `box-shadow` 那一行，浅底与边框保留；DESIGN.md「大运 Tab」一节加一句「当前大运用浅底和细边框标出，不画左侧强调线」。
+- 验收：一条 CSS 合同测试断言 `.chart-page-dasha-period.is-current` 不含 `box-shadow`。
+
+### T5 · 记录
+
+- `docs/BUG_HISTORY.md`：新 BUG（上升星宿字段被 `/api/chart` 丢弃，复发自 BUG-1201，写清为何 golden 没拦住）；BUG-1201 记录补一行更正；表头错位、左边线各一条或合为一条 UI 记录。
+- `docs/tasks/PROGRESS-chart-ascendant-row-20261015.md`、`CHANGELOG.md`、`frontend/DESIGN.md`。
+- 真机清单 `docs/testing/chart-ascendant-row-20261015.md`。

+# 合盘排盘与报告子进程 A/B（2026-10-15）
+
+Windows 本机，工作树 `.venv` 的 `python.exe`。`importlib.util.find_spec("jhora")` 是 `None`。`python3` 指向 Windows 应用商店占位程序，`python3.14` 不存在。Docker 守护进程在，本机没有 `jyotisha-api` 镜像，所以没有进镜像再探一次。本机没有 VedAstro SDK，外网关闭（`VEDASTRO_ENABLE_NETWORK=0`）。没有「真 SDK」一组。
+
+脚本：`scripts/research/api_chart_subprocess_ab.py`。每组 3 次，取中位数。盘是任务书里的虚构盘（1990-01-01 12:00 与 1992-01-02 12:00，新德里）。星盘缓存 TTL 设为 0。易变字段在比对前丢掉：`generated_at`、`created_at`、`timestamp`、`elapsed_seconds`、`elapsed_ms`、`duration_ms`、`request_id`。原始数字在同目录 `api-chart-subprocess-gate-ab-20261013.json`。
+
+对照不是另一次 `git show` 出 staging 再导入。星盘对照是本分支的 `_compute_chart_sync`：不带 skip、两张盘串行。报告对照是本分支把「参照引擎已安装」强制打开，从而仍会起子进程；静态校验缓存和解释器查找缓存两边都开着。所以报告耗时差只含那 6 个注定失败的回放进程，不含静态校验少跑的那一次。静态校验「连调两次只跑一次」由单测覆盖。
+
+## 合盘两张盘

+
+0.0166 / 8.0596 ≈ 0.2%，低于「不超过对照 10%」的线。子进程从 2 降到 0。任务书写的「4 → 0」是按每张盘 2 个子进程、两张合计 4 个来估的。这台机器上两张盘合计只数到 2 次 `subprocess.run`。不带 skip 的 8 秒里，大部分是没装 SDK 时子进程空等，不是盘面计算本身。

+
+少 6 次，对应年度回放 3 次和 Tajika 3 次。剩下的 1 次两边都有，短路没有把它去掉。子进程数 1，低于「模拟生产不超过 3」的线。耗时 15.32 秒，不比对照的 16.53 秒差。本机没装 PyJHora，没有再跑「装了参照引擎」的一组；那种环境仍必须走子进程，单测用桩覆盖。
+
+生产上的收益仍按任务书：大约每份报告 0.5 到 0.9 秒，不是装了参照引擎的机器上看到的约 5 秒。
+
+## 名额方案模拟（没改规则）
+
+固定一分钟：2 份报告（每次 13 秒）、20 次咨询（每次 0.2 秒）、6 次校正打分（每次 8 秒）。随机种子 64。并发上限按现状 2。O2、O3、O4 只在脚本里模拟。
+
+| 方案 | 咨询被拒 | 报告被拒 | 校正被拒 | 同时在跑的最高个数 | 是否碰到「不得加池、不得提高并发」 |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| O1 现状 | 40% | 0% | 17% | 2 | 否 |

+| O4 重任务最多占 1 个名额 | 0% | 0% | 67% | 2 | 否，本单不实现 |
+
+这是一分钟的草图，不是 staging 上的真实频率。咨询少被拒的时候，校正会多被拒（O3、O4）。O2 咨询不再被拒，但同时在跑的个数到了 3，越过了现在的上限。
