Axiom-TTT Inference Engine – Rust implementation using candle
Documentation
//! Passkey / needle convergence harness for the active-compression pipeline.
//!
//! This probe answers the question "do our meta-trained outer-loop projection
//! matrices (W_q / W_k / W_v) actually lift a unique secret token out of the
//! adapted fast-weight state, or does `recall_norm` collapse to zero the way it
//! does with random-init weights?"
//!
//! Phases:
//!   1. Checkpoint ingestion & pipeline warmup — load a meta-trained weights
//!      binary into the `InferencePipeline` (generated here if absent, since the
//!      execution container is ephemeral) and init a clean session slice.
//!   2. Passkey needle-in-a-haystack — build a >200-token bloated code context
//!      with a unique needle, then stream it through `forward_native` (via
//!      `adapt_session_blocking`) to trigger the test-time gradient updates
//!      W̃_t = W̃_{t-1} − η ∇L(W̃_{t-1}; x_t).
//!   3. Associative recall extraction & assertion — run the recall pass with a
//!      prompt querying the secret, print the dense fingerprint block, and
//!      assert recall_norm breaks past 0.000 into a healthy dynamic range.
