Research direction
Start by reviewing LEAN's existing futures support and the linked Coinbase Futures description to understand how expiring, non-perpetual contracts should differ from supported instruments. Done means Coinbase-style classical futures are supported with expiration behavior and the relevant trading workflows work as expected; the issue does not name files or tests to run.
