Replace focus with typed detail rules; ship titles as stock lenses

A detail rule is a function from place to detail level. Each consumer
chooses its own level-of-detail rule. Dungeon uses ByDistance anchored on
important subjects, the player first. Delvehold starts from Uniform.

Rules are typed world data that the library evaluates, not consumer code.
The deficit a rule produces is an admission input, and journal replay
re-runs reduce, so a changed consumer function would break committed
history. WorldScaleIntent per-kind targets remain the ceiling a rule
distributes.

The eight titles move into the library doc as the stock lens set. The
kernel extraction is ordered as plan step 15 pass L0, ahead of every
library pass.

## Objective
A player chooses a Vault, says what kind of experience they want, and gets a
world seeded from that Vault. The world is dense where they stand and sketched
where they don't, and it grows detail ahead of them as they travel. The flavor
of the world comes from how often each of the eight titled elaborators works
on it.

## Dungeon's lens set
Dungeon uses the eight titles under their original names and meanings as its
lens set:
| Title | Reaches for |
|---|---|
| Patina | ordinary objects, customs, nicknames, local jokes |
| Charter | government, law, offices, selection, succession, redress |
| Ledger | resources, labor, trade, infrastructure, scarcity, class pressure |
| Hearth | kinship, daily life, care, obligation, belonging |
| Tangle | factions, alliances, rivalries, leverage |
| Veil | secrets, rumors, misinformation, taboos, unevenly held knowledge |
| Ember | disputes, hazards, instability, escalation, urgent pressure |
| Numen | religion, magic, ritual, awe, cosmology, the genuinely strange |
Each title is a library lens: brief text plus an emphasis over the operation
catalog. Ledger leads with custody and dependency operations, Veil with
knowledge and channels, Charter with authority and selection. Whether the
eight ship with the library as a stock set or live in Dungeon is an open
decision below.

## Dungeon policy
- **Focus:** the subjects controlled by Dungeon's players.
- **Detail profile:** near 60 minutes (persons, institutions, populations),
middle 1 day (institutions and populations), far (institutions), lookahead
120 minutes. These are recommendations, tuned on the road.
- **Weights after creation:** the world owner may change them in Draft and
Active; later sessions use the new weights.
- **Lenses:** the library's stock set of eight, weighted by the player's
sliders. The owner may change weights in Draft and Active; later sessions use
the new weights.
- **Detail rule:** `ByDistance`, anchored on important subjects, the player
first. Recommended levels: within 60 minutes, persons, institutions, and
populations; within 1 day, institutions and populations; beyond, institutions
only; lookahead 120 minutes. Tuned on the road. Which other subjects Dungeon
pins, and when, is Dungeon policy not yet decided.
- **Travel:** Dungeon's seed authors a travel affordance for persons, and the
Eve surface projects one control per affordance a player's subject holds.

## Decisions the operator owns
- **Where the eight titles live.** Recommend: the library ships them as a
stock lens set any consumer may use or replace, because they are
world-agnostic narrative categories; Dungeon selects them and supplies
weights.
- **Library extraction.** Whether the world kernel moves out of
`crates/ghostlight-dungeon` into its own library crate before the library
passes land, so new library capabilities are not built inside a consumer.
Recommend: extract first.

- **Focus.** A world carries a set of focus subjects written by its owner.
Distance is the least route cost, in travel minutes, from a focus subject's
position to a place over open routes that subject may traverse, computed by
the same route walk as `reachable`, factored to return a cost map. A place
without routes takes its nearest routed container's distance. With no focus,
every place is far.
- **Detail profile.** Supplied at creation: distance bands, each naming a
density per place for each subject kind, plus a lookahead in minutes that
measures the nearest band from where a focus could be after that much
travel. It replaces `WorldScaleIntent` jurisdiction permille; per-kind
targets survive inside it.
- **Stock lens set.** The library ships eight lenses any consumer may use or
replace:
| Lens | Reaches for | Leads with |
|---|---|---|
| Patina | ordinary objects, customs, nicknames, local jokes | persona material, ordinary affordances |
| Charter | government, law, offices, selection, succession, redress | authority, selection, redress |
| Ledger | resources, labor, trade, infrastructure, scarcity, class pressure | custody, dependency, route cost |

| Ember | disputes, hazards, instability, escalation, urgent pressure | pressure, near-due commitments |
| Numen | religion, magic, ritual, awe, cosmology, the genuinely strange | facts, affordances, material |
- **Detail rules.** A world carries one detail rule: a function from place to
detail level. A detail level names a target density per place for each
subject kind, and the rule carries its own level table. The rule is typed
world data, written by the world's creator and changed by its owner through
one command, never consumer code: the deficit it produces is an admission
input, and replay re-runs `reduce`, so a consumer function that changed
after admission would make committed history fail replay. Each commit is
checked against the rule in force at its revision. The library evaluates a
closed, versioned set of forms:
- `Uniform { level }`: every place at one level.
- `ByDistance { anchors, bands, floor, lookahead }`: anchors are canonical
subjects. Distance is the least route cost, in travel minutes, from any
anchor's position to a place over open routes that anchor may traverse,
reduced by `lookahead`. It uses the same route walk as `reachable`,
factored to return a cost map. A place without routes takes its nearest
routed container's distance. Bands map distance to a level; beyond the last
band, and for every place when no anchor is placed, the level is `floor`.
A consumer whose rule no form expresses asks for a new form, and the library
adds it without consumer names. Combinators wait for a consumer that needs
one. `WorldScaleIntent` per-kind world targets remain the ceiling the rule
distributes; jurisdiction permille is replaced by the rule.
- **Demand.** Derived in `snapshot`, never stored: open boundaries and
per-place deficits against the band target, ordered by distance, then by the
kernel's boundary order. A session's confinement ground is the place subtree
of the demand it answers. A focus moving changes demand without a commit.
`IndividuationRequired` derives for a population whose place enters the
nearest band.

focus exists and in Active, each answering the head of demand. Each world

- Seal world authority before widening ontology. Only WorldKernel may hold mutable aggregate state, issue canonical IDs, invoke the reducer, or write the journal. The public seam is create/open, immutable snapshot, CommandEnvelope submission, and typed receipt. Empty reductions do not commit; translation gaps remain non-fictional inference/evaluation evidence outside WorldState.
- Every autonomous authority scope has exactly one decision controller. NarrativePersona preserves the Projector-Persona-Interpreter prose membrane; OperationalAgent may use a permissioned typed view and tools for operator-shaped cognition. Interpretation is total: representable material becomes typed proposals and unrepresented material becomes exact translation gaps. Neither mode changes authority, falls through to the other for a gap or infrastructure fault, or exercises the same opportunity twice.
- Sparse causal sufficiency, not actor count, defines a valid world horizon. Counts, cover ratios, interestingness, political diversity, and prose quality are evaluation evidence and cannot admit ontology, reject a structurally valid mutation, or declare the world complete. Liveness is a separate authored claim: the seed's WorldScaleIntent (design target 2,400 subjects / 240 cells / 10% cover) is a scale deficit the elaborators pursue, and cover budget is the deliberate choke; validity never waits on it and it never gates admission.
- Ghostlight Dungeon is a consumer of the Ghostlight library, which serves all GameCult narrative simulation. Dungeon concepts (Session Zero, Vault choice, players, sliders, starting locations) are Dungeon authority and never shape the library; the library offers consumer-neutral capabilities and each consumer supplies its own policy. Source does not yet match: the world kernel lives in `crates/ghostlight-dungeon`.

- Prompt text is projection, not truth storage.
