v1.3.0: Streamed top-K decision-tree plans + priority-aware ceiling
Fixes the bug where a specialization could show "Achievable" while no per-set ceiling cell surfaces a path to it. Reproduction: pin SP2=Business of Health & Medical Care, SP4=Foundations of Fintech, SP5=Corporate Finance, SE1=GIE; rank HCR first. Healthcare showed Achievable but every ceiling cell excluded HCR. Root cause: computeCeiling used strict > on count alone, so the first equal-count combination found won permanently and HCR-including outcomes were never recorded. Changes: - Replace per-(set, choice) computeCeiling loop with a single full-tree searchDecisionTree DFS. Both the per-set ceiling table and a new ranked top-K plan list (default K=10) are populated from one enumeration. - Comparison rule everywhere is (count desc, priority score desc, deterministic-tiebreak). priorityScore extracted from optimizer.ts into a shared priority.ts module used by both call sites. - Heuristic enumeration ordering: select the first reachable ranked spec as priorityTarget; reorder DFS children at every level so target- qualifying courses are tried first. High-priority outcomes surface in early iterations instead of being blocked by less-relevant equal-count results. - Bounded search: terminate on saturation (top-K stable for 500 iterations) or hard cap (10000 iterations); set partial=true if cap hit. Mitigates the worst-case enumeration cost. - Worker protocol: tagged-union response with topKUpdate, choiceUpdate (per-cell, replaces per-set setComplete), and allComplete events. - App state adds topPlans/topPlansPartial slices and an adoptPlan action that pins a plan's full course assignment in one click. Also fixes loadState's stale "ranking.length !== 14" check (now uses SPECIALIZATIONS.length so HCR-era saved state restores correctly). - New TopPlans component renders the ranked list with adopt buttons, placed above CourseSelection in the right column. - 17 new tests in searchDecisionTree.test.ts covering priority scoring, bounded ranked list, comparison rule, target selection, the user's reproduction scenario, streaming monotonicity, saturation termination, and a performance smoke test (< 5s for the 8-open-set case). - Existing decisionTree.test.ts: one test amended for per-cell streaming semantics; remaining 3 unchanged and passing.

## v1.3.0 — 2026-05-09
|
||||
|
||||
### Changes
|
||||
|
||||
- **Top Plans panel** — new ranked list of up to 10 complete course plans, each showing the achieved specializations and the courses to pin. An "Adopt plan" button pins all of a plan's courses in one click. Updates progressively as the search finds better outcomes.
|
||||
- **Priority-aware decision tree** — fixes the bug where a specialization could show "Achievable" without any per-set ceiling cell surfacing it. The decision-tree search now compares enumerated combinations by `(count desc, priority score desc)` and reorders DFS children so courses qualifying for the user's first reachable ranked spec are tried first, surfacing high-priority outcomes early.
|
||||
- **Bounded search with saturation termination** — search stops when the top-K stabilizes (default 500 stable iterations) or when the iteration cap (10000) is hit; partial results are flagged in the UI.
|
||||
- **Per-cell streaming** — the worker now emits per-cell ceiling updates instead of per-set rollups, so the per-set table refines progressively rather than appearing in coarse chunks.
