+The live path used to re-gate the gallery's own scores at `COSINE_ACCEPT` (0.60)
+and `COSINE_AMBIGUOUS` (0.50), lines above the fine-tuned head's own 0.40, so

 The live numbers use the shipped defaults: `--classify-workers 5` and torch capped at
 4 threads (`DORAYAKI_TORCH_THREADS=4`). Uncapped torch and 8 workers measured slower
 (11.1 results/s single-client) because detection and classification fight over the
