"""LightGBM tuning fairness probe (Phase 2.5).
Reviewer R1 (W1.5 / Q1.3) and R2 (W2.3) ask whether the headline finding
"classical models lead long-horizon T1 forecasting" survives if LightGBM
is tuned rather than run at library defaults. The canonical Table 6
LightGBM row remains at library defaults per the project's no-tuning
rule (every method in the benchmark panel uses library defaults; see
project memory `feedback_use_library_defaults.md`). This probe is
**outside the panel** -- it is a one-time secondary analysis whose only
purpose is to answer the reviewers' fairness question: does a modest
hyperparameter sweep change the leaderboard?
Design: a small 3 x 3 x 2 = 18-cell grid
n_estimators ∈ {100, 500, 1000}
max_depth ∈ {6, 10, 20}
learning_rate ∈ {0.01, 0.1}
All other LightGBM settings are kept at library defaults. The grid is
run on T1 at the panel's headline T1 horizon (read from
``experiments.panel``). For every cell we save predictions under a
distinct tag (so the probe never overwrites the canonical run) and
record the primary T1 metric with cluster-bootstrap CIs. The summary
report names the best cell, the default-config cell, and the relative
delta -- this is what the camera-ready text quotes back when explaining
the LightGBM-vs-LLM contrast.
Per-launch authorisation: this is CPU-only and 18 fits on T1's full
panel (~5M rows). Wall-clock estimate is several hours on the shared
host; the user must authorise the launch.
