…ll ladder + tile done) gft_dot4_ax7203 (gft_dot4_tile = 4x gft16_mul + gft_add reduction tree) verified 3/3 on the AX7203: 4x(41,0)^2=16 (0x5800), 9+4+8+4=25 (0x5920), 4x(41,256)^2=36 (0x5A40) -- the parallel one-shot counterpart to the streaming gft_macc row, same golden results. Completes the on-silicon set: GF-T16 multiply, dot2, streaming row, 4-lane tile, and the GF-T32 top rung -- every GF-T compute primitive now runs bit-exact on a live FPGA from the same .t27 the over-wire A2A verifier uses. Debug note recorded: the first dot4 bitstream was silent; a full-UART top sim proved the RTL correct, isolating the fault to a functionally-dead nextpnr --timing-allow-fail route (seed 5), fixed by re-PnR on seed 8. README dot4 status -> 3/3. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
