A Neural Engine substrate that can emit a package, compile it through Apple’s public toolchain, and audit the result — measured on real Apple Silicon.
This page publishes verified capability claims and proof labels. It is not a converter tutorial, not an operator catalog, and not a reconstruction manual.
Each row is a distinct claim. Numbers from sibling projects are not merged into Fugu headlines.
| Claim | Status | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Emit → compile → audit vertical slice runs on-device | Proven | Phase 11a compile-clean slice on Apple’s public path |
| Useful workflow needs no entitlement bypass | Proven | Same public-compiler posture as the ANE-RE / Qwen programs |
| Native Swift substrate extracted and packaged as its own artifact | Proven | Laboratory source remains private; this page is outcomes only |
| Placement / program inspection hooks exist in the lab stack | Proven | Capability claim only — interfaces and probes unpublished |
| Universal PyTorch→ANE conversion as a finished product | Unmeasured / incomplete | Ambition, not a shipped universal converter claim on this page |
Author a Neural Engine–bound package from a controlled specification surface. Details unpublished.
Hand the package to Apple’s public compiler path and obtain a device-loadable result.
Check that the compiled artifact matches the lab’s integrity / placement expectations.
Public claims stay labeled Proven, Estimated, Unmeasured, Falsified, or Closed.
Source repositories, graph topologies, operator sequences, tensor layouts, seed packages, CLI contracts, thresholds, weight locations, unpublished compiler workarounds, internal ledgers, and integration blueprints remain private. Hints about what is possible are intentional. Recipes for how to copy it are not.
If a detail would let a skilled engineer rebuild the substrate from this page alone, it does not belong here.
