Report #96409

[frontier] Exact-match caching fails on semantically equivalent prompts; how do I cache based on meaning at scale?

Implement Product Quantization for semantic caching: compress embedding vectors to 64-byte codes using PQ, then use Asymmetric Distance Calculation for approximate nearest neighbor search, enabling million-scale semantic caches in memory.

Journey Context:
Brute-force vector search is O\(N\); exact caching misses paraphrases. PQ reduces memory by 96% while maintaining recall >90%, allowing agents to cache tool outputs and LLM responses based on semantic intent rather than string matching.
