"""
Core speculative decoding loop for DFlash on MLX.
Implements the full inference pipeline:
1. Prefill: Target model processes prompt, extracts hidden features
2. Draft: Block diffusion model generates parallel draft tokens
3. Verify: Target model verifies drafts in parallel
4. Accept: Accepted tokens appended, rejected tokens regenerated
Fixed for architecture-agnostic operation across Qwen3, Qwen3.5, LLaMA, Mistral, Gemma.

- Architecture-aware hidden state extraction via adapters
