Curve Risk Monitoring Agent

⬡ Yardstick Watches curve/DV01 risk and gates hedges as the desk's oversight/risk agent.
◆ Supervised Monitor

Aggregates the desk's interest-rate risk across the curve, runs the scenarios, and sizes the futures/swap hedge to flatten a bucket that's drifting. As the desk's independent risk agent it gates the commit … material rates risk only moves once it clears.

Evals & guardrails

  • Independent risk-agent gate on every rates-risk commit; no flow agent moves the book unchecked.
  • Scenario accuracy validated against realised P&L.
  • Limit-breach alerts escalate to the control plane immediately.

Frontier edge

  • World-model simulation: runs counterfactual curve shocks to weigh the residual-risk path of each candidate hedge before it clears the commit.
  • Causal reasoning: attributes a bucket's DV01 drift to its actual driver (flow vs. curve move) rather than flagging on correlation.
  • Anticipatory proposals: reads the day's expected supply and data calendar to pre-draft the hedge before a bucket drifts out.
