Hadith narrators and isnad chains, from Shamela's rijal register and isnad index. `mode`: - narrators (default): a narrator by name → narrator_id, most-documented first, then earliest death year. Names collide: confirm the death year before using an id. - narrator: one dossier by narrator_id — lineage, death year, tabaqa, Ibn Hajar's and al-Dhahabi's grades, critics' jarh wa-ta'dil verdicts verbatim with source (the only paged part), hadith_notes on audition and irsal; include_network adds isnad-index counts per book and top teachers/students. Quote verdicts as worded; never synthesize a grade. - isnad_search: chains by the narrators in them — `contains` (anywhere) or `transmission` [teacher_id, student_id] pairs that must be adjacent (direct audition, the stronger test) — each hit with book, page, hadeeth_key and the chain. - isnad: the chain(s) printed on one page (book_id/page_id from a search hit) with names and death years, plus the same hadith's other routes — one thread or many. Rules: a parameter of another mode is refused. Chains run ascending (Companion first, collector last). Only ten hadith books are isnad-indexed (see scope_book_ids): an empty isnad_search means no such chain in those ten, not in all literature; most pages answer no_isnad_indexed:true with a no_isnad_reason, not an error. Errors: RIJAL_UNAVAILABLE (register not installed), NARRATOR_NOT_FOUND (search the name again), BOOK_NOT_FOUND, PAGE_NOT_FOUND, BOOK_NOT_DOWNLOADED (try shamela_get_details(kind='book') same_group). Instead: book authors → shamela_find(kind='author'); a hadith by its text → shamela_lookup_hadith(mode='search').
