The detail
WHAT TO DO: once live SP-API stock for sku alkmin240 (B086X8CY4X) shows ≥45 days of cover, set RANK_INVEST_ENABLED: true in ~/projects/ppc-engine/clients/AFL.json. Then run the canary: build the RINV campaign PAUSED (campaign → ad group → product ad → exact keyword "alkaline capsules", bid about $2.01, ceiling $2.75), confirm AD_STATUS_LIVE, enable it and re-read it live. Reset startDate/startRank to the go-live day. WHY: this is AFL's only term passing every rank-invest gate: organic rank 37, 734 searches/mo, 144 keyword sales. Estimated cost is about $184/mo against a $300 cap. It is held because stock on 09-22 was 37 fulfillable + 12 inbound (~49 days). Pushing would roughly double sales and could sell out before the 14-day checkpoint, wasting the rank gain. CONFIG: staged with the tier OFF in ppc-engine commit 8c5912c (branch discovery-guarded-execution).
