+# 模板详情与回测准备迭代
+Type: task
+Status: ready-for-human
+
+## 范围
+模板详情移除 AI、假设、导入、删除、历史选择等交互；仅保留名称、类别、研究解释、表达式及占位符类型/描述，操作为保存和新增版本。回测准备按表达式、数据准备、展开选项、回测参数、生成候选集合排列。允许无取值模板保存，展开时按字段类型绑定固定输入；非字段参数不推测。保留现有不可变版本与并发保护，提供 bot 创建及新增版本能力。
+
+## 验证
+类型检查、后端模板保存/展开/版本/bot 回归、浏览器实际交互。
+
+## Answer
+已完成前后端实现。保存修改沿用不可变版本；新增版本允许内容不变时显式创建下一版。模板工坊仅配置字段类型与描述，已有显式 values 仍作为候选限制保留；空 field 从所选固定输入按类型绑定，非字段空参数返回明确 422。新增内置 bot 模板创建/版本能力和外部 MCP 版本、查询能力。
+
+验证：前端 typecheck、改动文件 Ruff、git diff --check 通过。模板与工作空间 50 项测试通过；AI/MCP 回归 39 项通过，1 项因新增工具导致总数断言变化，更新断言后单独复跑通过。两条既有浏览器回归通过。Playwright CLI 实测字段去重/删除、描述保存、类型切换、保存 v1/新增 v2/编辑保存 v3、历史不变、选择数据准备后生成候选且未启动回测。截图位于 output/playwright/template-detail-editor.png 与 template-detail-prepare.png。验证使用隔离数据库和模拟平台。
