"""Parasitic QLoRA Adapter Extraction Engine.
Extracts low-rank LoRA adapters from weight deltas during full-parameter
fine-tuning at near-zero additional compute cost. Piggybacks on the existing
SVD computation in FCES's SpectralSensor.
Architecture:
During training, W₀ (base weights) is snapshotted at init.
At extraction points: ΔW = W_t - W₀
Truncated SVD: ΔW ≈ U_r·Σ_r·V_r^T = B·A (LoRA decomposition)
Compute overhead: < 0.5% of training FLOPs when using torch.svd_lowrank.
