Pull request overview
This PR extends an existing wake-time rule file with a new section discussing tensor-substrate scope and eigenvalue-based discrimination between "lightlike" and "dark" tensor operations. It is a docs/skills-only change that builds on PRs #5912 and #5921. No code is modified.
Changes:
- Appends a "Tensor-substrate scope" section to the lightlike-substrate design rule under
.claude/rules/. - Bundles the prior PR #5921 ferry, research note, and skill files (likely already merged via #5921; included here as part of the diff context).

Tensor-substrate scope extension to lightlike-substrate design-rule (PR #5912 + extended in PR #5921 + this PR extends further).
Operator substrate-recognition:
Operator disposition:
rule extension (shadow*).Substantive substrate-content
Tensors ARE lightlike-substrate at OPERATION-SCOPE; whether SPECIFIC tensor-operations preserve lightlike-property depends on tensor-substrate-properties.
Eigenvalue-substrate IS lightlike-vs-dark discriminator
Same shape as Amara's OTel/K8s/Argo tightening: lightlike-property applies to PARTS that preserve rays (well-conditioned operations).
Composes with framework tensor-substrate
Operational rule (carved)
Diagnostic substrate
Per-operation lightlike-check table (matrix multiplication / inverse / eigendecomposition / backward pass / tensor reduction / mixed-precision) added to rule.
Substrate-honest scope (Amara's blade applied)
SURVIVES razor: tensor-substrate IS lightlike at substrate-class scope; eigenvalue-substrate IS substrate-engineering substrate-engineering substrate-diagnostic discriminator.
FAILS razor (NOT claimed): "all tensor operations are lightlike" (substrate-collapse); "eigenvalue spectrum unifies all tensor numerics" (overclaim).
Composes with PR #5912 (lightlike-substrate design-rule) + PR #5921 (extended in place) + PR #5919 (higher-kinded kindness) + PR #5920 (WWJD-in-monadic-form).
