Small local ONNX models emit 384-768 dims, and Matryoshka (MRL) is truncation-only — no model expands to 1536 — fixed 1536-dim cosine vector indexes. Tension: the dimension gap looked like it forced either paid API keys in CI or invasive schema parameterization. Outcome: the only zero-cost native-1536 option is a hosted free tier (Gemini), which reintroduces network + ToS concerns for CI.
