+  answer: ... Is the proposed answer correct?", and the options are scored by
+  their Yes-minus-No margins (the bundle's cost-sensitive probe). The Go port
+  of `compass-vld-v6-runtime.js` (the LFM3-VL image processor with Pillow's
+  bicubic resampling, the FP16 vision encoder, the Q8 decoder with its conv
+  states and KV caches) was checked against the extension's JavaScript on the
+  same graphs: identical prompts, tokens, image layouts, pixel values, image
+  features, logits and probabilities. JPEG and WebP screenshots are decoded by
+  Go's decoders, whose pixels differ slightly from Chrome's. The check is
