+# PR #5892: research(c-elegans): tower-superorganism (Perez & Ding 2025) completes three-layer biological instantiation of framework's multi-oracle BFT formal-math — mirror-tier preservation (operator 2026-05-28)
+
+## PR description
+
+Research-tier ONLY per operator explicit disposition:
+
+> *"research for such that's some crazy shit"*
+> *"we don't want to just code that up without proper research"*
+
+No backlog row at this scope — substrate-anchor for future substrate-engineering substrate-target work; substrate-honest disposition preserved.
+
+## Substrate-grounding (per WebFetch 2026-05-28)
+
+[Scientific American](https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/this-tower-of-worms-is-a-squirming-superorganism/) reporting on Perez & Ding et al., *Current Biology* (2025) DOI: 10.1016/j.cub.2025.05.026:
+
+- **Species**: *C. elegans*
+- **Trigger**: food scarcity (researchers induced via food-empty dish)
+- **Function**: cooperative dispersal + resource-seeking (hitchhike on fruit flies)
+- **Scale**: "dozens of worms" coordinate as superorganism
+- **Framing**: explicitly "superorganism" + "move as one" + "eerily coordinated manner"
+
+## Three-layer biological instantiation
+
+| Layer | Substrate |
+|---|---|
+| **Individual** | c302 connectome (Cook et al. 2019; 302 neurons fully mapped) |
+| **Collective** | Tower-superorganism (Perez & Ding 2025; dozens-of-worms coordinated dispersal) |
+| **Formal** | Aurora multi-oracle BFT immune-math + B-0703 three-faction BFT + B-0664 NCI HC-8 |
+
+The framework's multi-oracle BFT formal-math has — uniquely in known biological substrate — a complete-substrate instantiation across ALL THREE substrate-layers simultaneously at the SAME tractability scope.
+
+## What ships
+
+Single research note at `docs/research/2026-05-28-c-elegans-tower-superorganism-perez-ding-2025-current-biology-completes-three-layer-biological-instantiation-of-frameworks-multi-oracle-bft-formal-math-aaron-2026-05-28.md`
+
+- Substrate-rhyme observation
+- WebFetch substrate-grounding from Scientific American article
+- Three-layer composition table (individual + collective + formal)
+- Multi-oracle BFT composition (formal ↔ biological)
+- Future substrate-engineering substrate-target candidates (N-worm DST + joint state-space + empirical-validation surface)
+- Mirror-vs-beacon framing (mirror-tier preserved; beacon-tier requires empirical validation)
+
+## Composes-with
+
+- B-0925 (per-individual C. elegans controller variant)
+- B-0924 (custom 2600 emulator + generate+join)
+- B-0917 (Kleisli interrupt substrate)
+- B-0703 (three-faction BFT)
+- B-0664 (NCI HC-8 floor)
+- B-0644 (Limit-as-simulation) + B-0665 (Integrate-as-choice-locus)
+- B-0865, B-0761 (ARC-AGI-3 cluster substrate)
+- Aurora immune-math substrate
+- Tonal-momentum substrate
+- OpenWorm + Perez & Ding (2025)
+
+## Substrate-honest scope
+
+Per `.claude/rules/god-tier-claims-high-signal-high-suspicion-dont-collapse.md` PERSONAL INVARIANT: substrate-rhyme observation preserved at mirror-tier as high-signal-high-suspicion; do not collapse to ratified-claim without empirical validation. Proper-research-first discipline preserved per operator's explicit framing.
