Single-model trading systems fail quietly when their training assumptions stop matching the market. Chimera uses a council pattern: independent model lanes publish direction, score, confidence, and readiness.
A council vote is still only one layer. Iron Dome risk controls and the antifragile stress engine can veto a trade even when the models agree.
The user sees which lanes agree, which lanes are in standby, and when the system refuses to act. That transparency matters more than a black-box confidence number.
