Lesson 148: Research-to-production handoffs
Focus
Bias toward repeatable experiment notebooks: circuits, mitigation settings, timestamps. Token Research-to-production handoffs:148 keeps neighbouring lessons differentiable.
Key ideas
- Thread: Research-to-production handoffs · drill v8 · spin
337247. - Habit: pair each job with shot budget, mitigation profile, and a calibration fingerprint you could paste.
- Guardrail: write one line about where classical cost dominated the timeline.

H_SUBSPACE_TAG: VS-51
ANSATZ_BLOCKS: repetitions R=5
CLASSICAL_OPTIM: L-BFGS-B
CONVERGENCE_GUARD: plateau_epochs > 3 ⇒ widen shot budget memo
ENERGY_CI: tracked alongside parameter shift noise
