Three strategic features from Issue #334 with full CLI-MCP parity:
Imp-9: YAML Deterministic QE Pipelines
- Approval gate step type with auto-approve timeout and cancel cleanup
- 4 deterministic actions (quality-gate, coverage, pattern-health, routing)
with real SQL queries and graceful DB degradation
- 7 CLI commands (aqe pipeline load/validate/run/list/status/approve/reject)
- YAML loader validation for approval fields
Imp-10: Token-Free Heartbeat CLI & MCP
- 6 CLI commands (aqe heartbeat status/run-now/history/log/pause/resume)
- 3 MCP tools (heartbeat_status/trigger/log)
- History persistence, date validation, timeout support
Imp-18: Economic Routing Model
- EconomicRoutingModel with quality-per-dollar scoring and EMA estimates
- Budget-aware tier selection with fallback strategies
- Cost-adjusted rewards for neural router (opt-in)
- CLI commands (aqe routing economics/accuracy/metrics)
- routing_economics MCP tool with kv_store persistence
Security: path traversal fix on CLI log reader, config weight validation
71 new tests across 6 test files, all passing.
