The foundational-layer coordinate for AI infrastructure built at the substrate level.
Where AI meets its deepest organizing layer — the substrate position for AI systems that want to be foundational rather than feature-level.
Coordinated sets this position belongs to — the coverage it extends. Counts are the live cluster size in the graph.

Why this is canonical
'Substrate' names the layer beneath layers: the organizing surface that everything else is built on. Combined with 'AI' on the .ai TLD, it creates a double-declaration — the substrate layer for AI systems, on the TLD that marks agent-era products. It positions a builder at the deepest structural level of the AI stack.
