validate-no-avx-tests

name	Validate No-AVX tests
description	Use when changing CPU NoAvx runtime loading, package imports, or tests that must run without AVX.

Validate No-AVX tests

Use this skill for changes involving CpuNoAvx, Whisper.net.Runtime.NoAvx, USE_WHISPER_NOAVX_TESTS, or the no-AVX CI workflow.

Important behavior

Setting USE_WHISPER_NOAVX_TESTS=true changes which runtime targets are imported by the demo, test project, and dependency checker. It should be used only for no-AVX validation.

Workflow

From the repository root with no-AVX runtime artifacts available under runtimes/:

$env:USE_WHISPER_NOAVX_TESTS = "true"
dotnet restore .\Whisper.net.slnx
dotnet build .\Whisper.net.slnx --no-restore -warnaserror
dotnet run --project .\tools\WhisperNetDependencyChecker\WhisperNetDependencyChecker.csproj -- CpuNoAvx
dotnet test .\Whisper.net.slnx --no-build --logger "trx"
Remove-Item Env:\USE_WHISPER_NOAVX_TESTS

If no-AVX native artifacts are not present and the task changed native no-AVX outputs, use the Change native runtimes skill to build or obtain matching artifacts instead of using the preview native libs shortcut.
