Per goal "c8p3..c8p7, then p8 — surface if user intervention is
required": this is the surface point.
Kernel-library work is complete (cycles 1-8 all dispatchable via
public API, all CPU paths bit-exact, 3 QPU paths bit-exact, 3
opportunistic-QPU paths shader-exists-API-TODO).
V4L2 wrapper architecture needs 4 user decisions:
- Q1: Option A (v4l2loopback) / B (kernel V4L2 shim) / C (libva direct)
- Q2: Parser source: FFmpeg-vendored / dav1d+libvpx mix / FFmpeg-dlopen
- Q3: In-repo or sibling repo (daedalus-v4l2)?
- Q4: End-to-end test target (tiny clips / 1080p30 / both)
Recommended defaults (A / γ / sibling / both) documented;
explicit confirmation requested before committing to days of work
that locks in months of follow-on choices.
Mechanical TODOs that can proceed in parallel without blocking V4L2
decision: cycle 3+5+8 opportunistic-QPU dispatch wiring through API,
or cycle 9 (H.264 luma qpel MC, predicted CPU-only per cycle 6/7
pattern).
24 commits pushed to marfrit/daedalus-fourier this autonomous arc.
