"Scope Lens" — reveal what a component, recipe, or action can affect. It has a link layer (ropes / cloth between neighbours), a wall layer (bounce matter off a boundary), and a lens layer (bend passing matter (refraction)). The active render stack is links, field-lines, voronoi, particles.

A diagnostic overlay, not a field of its own: links trace what an action can reach, walls mark where its scope stops, and the lens focuses the view on reach before mutation. It reads the relationship graph rather than translating a natural field.

Metrics

scope impact risk relation-strength scope, impact, relation-strength are host-supplied lanes — drive them with data-field-<metric> (or a domain model); without that, their --field-* stays inert.
