📄 Description

Summary

Fixes the book-mlsys-test-units pre-commit hook, which has been red on
every book-validate-dev run since 2026-04-18 (last green: 2026-04-17, sha 532eed35).
The fix is one line of corrected sys.path math, with a comment explaining the layout
trap so it doesn't recur.

Why it failed

book/tests/test_units.py did:

sys.path.insert(0, _repo_root)         # cs249r_book/
from mlsysim.core.constants import *

But mlsysim package layout is two levels deep:

<repo_root>/mlsysim/                    ← project dir, NOT a Python package
<repo_root>/mlsysim/mlsysim/__init__.py ← actual package
<repo_root>/mlsysim/mlsysim/core/       ← submodule we want

In dev: mlsysim is pip install -e'd, so Python found it via site-packages.
The path hack was inert. The import worked. Tests passed locally.
In CI: no editable install. Python 3.3+ saw <repo_root>/mlsysim/ (no __init__.py)
as an implicit namespace package, and mlsysim.core resolved nowhere → ModuleNotFoundError.

Fix

Point sys.path at <repo_root>/mlsysim/ (the directory containing the package),
not <repo_root>/:

_mlsysim_project = os.path.join(_repo_root, "mlsysim")
sys.path.insert(0, _mlsysim_project)

Comment block above the change documents the layout so the next person to touch it
doesn't reintroduce the bug.

Verification

pre-commit run book-mlsys-test-units --files book/quarto/contents/vol1/benchmarking/benchmarking.qmd → Passed locally.
All transitive deps (pint, pydantic, numpy, pyyaml, rich) are already
in book/tools/dependencies/requirements.txt, which book-validate-dev.yml installs.
Sandbox-emulated CI environment (no editable install, plain sys.path) resolves
mlsysim.core correctly with this patch.

What this unblocks

The book publish guard (infra-publish-guard.yml → book-validate-dev.yml) requires
the most recent dev validate run to be green. With this fix, book-publish-live can
be triggered for vol1 v0.6.0 / vol2 v0.1.0 once the next dev run goes green.
