Model quality for market segments and product lines now derives from deployed
model capabilities (coding, reasoning, agents, etc.) instead of requiring a
separate manual benchmark evaluation step. This eliminates an unbounded
benchmarkResults[] array that was scanned 5x per tick and removes ~480 lines
of dead-weight UI, types, and engine code.

Adds a full simulation harness (game-simulation package) with greedy/random strategies,
36-metric diagnostics, multi-run orchestration via child processes, and a statistical
interpreter. Includes 2.3x engine performance optimizations (research bonus caching,
per-DC dirty tracking, reduced allocations in tick pipeline, single-pass loops).
Fixes a critical balance bug where training pipelines stalled on insufficient VRAM would
permanently block training slots — the engine never re-checked stalled pipelines, and the
greedy strategy didn't pre-check VRAM requirements. This caused 20-25% of seeds to get
stuck in Scale-up era. All three fixes (engine un-stalling, strategy VRAM pre-check,
stalled pipeline cancellation) bring pass rate from 75% to 100% across 20 random seeds.

Training pipeline now requires SFT specializations and alignment method configured at start — no more
mid-training configuration step. Model families support multiple size tiers (Nano/Small/Medium/Large/Flagship)
trained independently, mimicking real AI company model families. Point releases iterate on deployed models
with 40% training time and 8% capability gain. Distillation and fine-tuning variants removed — players
train smaller size tiers or configure SFT during initial training instead. Only quantization remains as
a variant type.

- Lift modelsTab state into Zustand store so actions can navigate tabs
- Add toast notifications + auto-tab-switch to all 10 model actions
(train, configure SFT/alignment, distill, fine-tune, quantize, eval, deploy, open-source)
- Add actionable toast buttons with navigation (e.g., "Go to Families" on training complete)
- Fix post-training config: remove 50% deadline, show until pretraining completes,
always-visible warning prompt outside card expand, engine reminder at 75%
- PostTrainingConfig now hides already-configured sections independently
- Add tab badges: pulsing dot for active jobs, count for undeployed models, warning for no deployment
- Replace empty states with actionable buttons guiding next steps
- Stage bars show "(skip)" in warning color for unconfigured SFT/Alignment stages

Replace the single-stage training + flat capability score with a realistic AI
development pipeline: pre-training with Chinchilla scaling laws, SFT with
specializations, alignment with safety/capability tradeoffs (RLHF/DPO/Constitutional),
model families with distillation/fine-tuning/quantization variants, named benchmark
suite with compute-costing eval jobs, and segment-specific market quality.
Phases 1-6 of the model rework plan: new types, engine rewrite, save migration,
training events/risk system, concurrent training, variant creation, benchmark
evaluation with leaderboard, and market integration.

Expand from 10 to 18 rack SKUs across NVIDIA, AMD, and custom ASIC vendors, each with
distinct training vs inference FLOPS, VRAM capacity, cooling requirements, and interconnect
technology. Adds cooling hierarchy (air/liquid/immersion) that gates rack deployment, VRAM
requirements that gate model training by generation, interconnect multipliers for distributed
training scaling, and PUE-based energy cost reduction for advanced cooling. Includes save
migration from v4 to v5, 6 new research nodes, and UI updates showing split compute stats.

Add reusable Tooltip component and rich tooltips on all TopBar KPIs
(cash breakdown, compute utilization, reputation context). Add save
import button to Settings page. Fix game balance: reduce GPU maintenance
100x, increase organic API demand 200x, accelerate subscription revenue
timescale, boost early subscriber seeding, use sqrt scaling for model
compute factor, simplify deploy to activate all product lines at once.
