""" lib/embeddings.py Embedding abstraction layer. Deliberately implemented as TF-IDF (word 1-2grams) + TruncatedSVD ("classic LSA") rather than a downloaded sentence-transformer model. This is a constraint-driven design choice, not a quality shortcut: - The ranking step must run with NO network access. A sentence-transformer needs its weights present on disk already, which means the repo must either vendor ~80-400MB of model binaries or pull them at precompute time over the network -- one more thing to break reproducibility on a judge's machine at Stage 3. - TF-IDF + SVD is 100% stdlib-adjacent (scikit-learn only), fits in a few hundred KB on disk, fits the "small semantic *support* signal, not the main decision" role described in the brief exactly, and is bit-for-bit reproducible with a fixed random_state. - It still recovers vocabulary-level synonymy (a candidate who built a "recommendation system" without ever writing "RAG" still scores reasonably against the JD's ideal-candidate text), which is the specific Tier-5 trap the JD explicitly warns about. This module exposes a tiny interface (`fit`, `transform`, `similarity_to`) so a future sentence-transformer backend could be swapped in later without touching callers -- this is the "embedding abstraction" piece.
