B.5.2.0:4.1.1 - Specialization-sensitive prompt species

These extension species are admissible only when cue provenance or trajectory account already carries the bounded-specialization evidence requirement by value; they are not the starter canonical entry set for ordinary abduction.

TaskFamilySpecializationPrompt asks what explains a performance difference within the declared task family. AdaptationProbePrompt asks which rival explanations predict whether a proposed adaptation can reach the stated threshold. NonHumanUtilityPrompt asks what could explain the indicated utility advantage of a low-human-overlap approach. SubstrateDiversificationPrompt asks what explains the indicated limitation of the current substrate. In each species, B.5.2 returns qualified explanatory conjectures; task family, utility target, threshold, budget and motivating evidence qualify that question.
