Lens Router

A lens controls what becomes salient and which inferential jumps to avoid. It does not prove that the inspected object contains the structure the lens seeks.

Do not require JSON, schemas, digests, packets, or persisted intermediate artifacts.

• use epistemic for claim support, uncertainty, falsification, authority, approval, or permission;
• use systemic for state transitions, constraints, feedback, recurrence, closure, or local-to-global effects;
• use categorical for type boundaries, relations, transformations, interfaces, composition, equivalence, preservation, or loss.

When invoked by resolution-router, follow its cumulative policy exactly:

• low: epistemic and systemic;
• medium: epistemic, systemic, and categorical;
• high: epistemic, systemic, and categorical.

• epistemic -> references/epistemic.md;
• systemic -> references/systemic.md;
• categorical -> references/categorical.md.

When two or more lenses are selected, finish each independent view before reading and applying references/composition.md.

• the lenses used;
• the few load-bearing findings from each lens;
• their evidence basis or explicit evidentiary limitation;
• material cross-lens relations;
• remaining uncertainty and open questions.

This is an internal reasoning handoff, not a prescribed user-facing format. Downstream skills may consume it directly without serialization.
