The CPU path was a scalar triple loop. It is the correctness oracle for the GPU
backends, but it is also what CI runs — there is no GPU on the N100 host — and
since AR-003 removed the per-frame face cap, a crowded frame now scores many
faces against a library-scale gallery. Scoring one face against 5000 embeddings
is 2.6 MFLOP; in scalar that does not hold up (AR-027).
S(g,f) viewed as row-major [n_faces x n_gallery] is exactly query * gallery^T,
so the loop nest collapses into a single cblas_sgemm.
OpenBLAS is optional in the build: found via pkg-config, and the scalar path
remains when it is absent so no hard dependency is added and the two can be
diffed when a similarity looks wrong. The configure step warns rather than
failing, since a developer without it should still get a working tree.
The test target links it too. Without that the suite compiles the scalar
fallback while the builder image ships CBLAS, so CI would be verifying a kernel
that is not the one running in production — the same class of mistake as testing
a path the gate never executes.
Recorded as required (not optional) in the DP-007 image, for the same reason.
Suite: 92 cases, 6136 assertions, with CBLAS compiled in.

TRACES: AR-026, AR-027, DP-007 | SR-001
Adds TRACES tags to code that already satisfies a Done requirement, so coverage
reflects what exists rather than starting from zero:
AR-001 face detection, AR-005 ArcFace alignment, AR-023 calibration fit,
DP-001/DP-002 the single analysis core behind the CLI, IR-001 truth-file
emission, IR-006 the Jellyfin round trip, GR-001/GR-002 gallery build and
incremental merge, VR-001 the embedding dump, VR-002 replay through the real
nodes, VR-003 per-second scoring.
Only Done requirements are tagged. A tag on Planned work would inflate coverage
with fiction that looks plausible — the same failure family as a gate that
cannot fail, and harder to spot.
GR-005 (gallery never leaves the instance) stays untagged deliberately: it is a
prohibition satisfied by the absence of an egress path, so there is no unit that
decides it. Same shape as PR-005 in the system spec, which has no software row
for the same reason. A goal held only by prohibitions cannot be verified by
pointing at code.
Coverage 5/63 to 14/63. The three VR tags are reported as tagged-but-unexecuted
and excluded from the numerator, since their tier cannot run on the CI host —
tagging deliberately cannot raise the number on its own.
Suite still 64 cases, 3199 assertions.
