Remove confirmed dead-end code that wastes future agent time: - Delete lz77_hash.wgsl GPU hash-table kernel and all Rust references (fundamental SIMT atomic ordering problem, 6.25% match ratio vs 99.61% CPU) - Delete parlz module, pipeline variant, WebGPU integration, and CLI flag (37.6% ratio gap vs serial greedy, NO-GO for fully-parallel GPU LZ) - Disable gpu_fused_span() routing entropy to GPU for Lzr/LzSeqR (GPU rANS is 0.54-0.77x CPU after 29+ optimization iterations) Update exec plan statuses: - PLAN-p0a-gpu-rans-vertical-slice: CLOSED (perf gate failed) - PLAN-interleaved-rans: PARKED (Phase D cancelled, GPU rANS dead end) - PLAN-unified-scheduler-north-star: PARKED (Phases 2+5 blocked) - TODO-huffman-sync-decode: PARKED (zero implementation progress) - agent-harness-implementation: PARKED (Phase 1 done, rest deferred) Add benchmark caveat to CLAUDE.md documenting ~18x gap between bench.sh (per-process, includes wgpu init) and Criterion (pre-allocated).
