New _gqa_attention_decode_opt2.py: per-tile attention as #1 Q.Kt GEMM composite + #2 softmax_merge recipe composite (online merge + P.V + add). Runnable in op_log mode; full data-mode numeric parity is a deferred follow-up (P5-numerics).
Measured per-tile PE_CPU dispatch (ADR-0064 Rev2 default): opt3=960ns vs opt2=184ns = 5.22x (gate >2x), FIXED-dominated (command-count reduction) — the ADR-0060/0064 CPU-offload win. opt2<opt3 across R in {0.25,0.0625,0.03125}. K-before-V: softmax_merge prologue carries no DMA; V (ref) streams only in the GEMM tile loop.
Fix latent P3 bug surfaced by the first e2e recipe run: prologue MATH stages were FOLDED into the first GEMM tile, but a folded MATH->DMA_READ boundary needs a PE_MATH->PE_DMA token route the pipeline never wires (KeyError pe_dma). Now prologue/post-loop stages are fed as standalone 1-stage tiles (each completes on its component); completion count includes them. Existing benches have no prologue -> tiles + feed order unchanged (byte-equal); full suite 806 pass / 3 pre-existing fail.
