   SkyLights collaborations — v3
   Same DNA (see SKYLIGHTS-DESIGN-BLUEPRINT.md), but light behaves like light:
   a real beam + dust motes in the hero, a cursor "lantern" on dark sections,
   a scroll-fed beam that ignites each process step, editorial type scale,
   drifting topic marquee, film grain on photo bands.
