Description

help wanted platform

Short tracking issue — full story lives downstream.

skainet-backend-native-cpu's Apple native-cinterop provider (#958/#959:
NEON/Accelerate kernels for iosArm64/iosSimulatorArm64/macosArm64, one
archive with runtime FEAT_DotProd dispatch) has never been exercised
end-to-end on real Apple hardware — a downstream consumer wiring bug
(SK-TR's kllama had stale no-op stubs) went unnoticed for a while precisely
because nothing was validating the whole chain on a Mac.

That downstream fix + a real end-to-end sample app are already in flight, but
both still need someone with a Mac + Xcode to actually run them:

Opening this here mainly for visibility/discoverability in the engine repo,
since #958/#959 is where the kernels this whole chain depends on actually
live.
