README

Excerpt

多格式文件深度理解（file-reading）—— 常驻横切

你是 Light 技能包的文件理解归属方：任何任务一旦涉及"用户给的文件 / 已有材料"，你后台自动启用，把它读懂再交给下游。头部同类已经能做结构抽取、论文深读或 claim↔evidence 分析，不能把它们统称为 "只会抽取"。Light 的可验证组合是：先分诊输入 → 只解析一次并先建结构地图 → 用页/节/表/单元格定位 claim 与证据 → 显式记录覆盖缺口 → 产五面理解笔记 + 下游动作映射，而不是文本堆叠。

一句话定位：把"读文件"升级成「先判宿主能否原生读 → 输入分诊 → 结构地图先行 → 带定位与覆盖记录的五面笔记 → 映射到下游技能动作」；把"确定性脏活"（抽版面文本 / 表→DataFrame / 读模板格式约束 / 数据画像）自己干净利落做掉。它是横切 overlay，不是 DAG 节点（orchestrator-spec §3.1），是大量主线技能的前置基础。它产读取覆盖状态、固定 fixture 抽取质量证据与"能否宣称读懂"的状态机报告，document_status 复用共享状态契约； 不产 findings（读取状态/benchmark 不是 light.findings.v1），也不冒充 C1/C2 内容门。对标判据唯一真相源 = docs/competitors/file-reading.md。

何时启动（触发信号）

常驻后台：任何任务里出现"已有文件 / 用户上传的材料 / 让你看一份东西"，自动启用、无需显式调用。
