Task: Build the rates delta and gamma ladders
Table of Contents
This page documents a task in the Build the sensitivity ladders story. It captures the goal, current status, acceptance, and any notes or results.
1. Goal
A party runs a rates delta ladder and a rates gamma ladder over a book and reads them bucketed by curve and tenor.

3. Acceptance
- The report definition, its risk report configuration and its analytics are seeded for a named party.
- A run produces a ladder row for each curve and tenor the configuration shifts, and no row for a factor the run does not hold.
- The gamma ladder reads the ComputeGamma figure and states in its documentation that it is money, not a curvature per unit.
- The stored figures carry the curve, the tenor and the shift size, so a reader can tell a .1 figure from a basis-point figure without consulting the run.
4. Plan
(Implementation strategy. Written when work starts; key decisions
are distilled into the parent story's * Decisions at close, but the
plan itself stays — it is the historical record of what we did.)
5. Measurements
Every number this task claims about a tree, with the command that produced it
and the commit it was measured at. A number without both is not a measurement,
because a clean-up record describes a tree and trunk moves under a branch: a
consumer count, a gate's component count and a suite's size all change with no
code changing, and the reader of a bare number cannot tell which tree it came
from. Where the raw output matters, put it in an evidence/ file beside the
task and name that file in the Command column.
