**Version**: 1.1.0 **Last Updated**: 2025-01-01 **Status**: Production **Parent**: [03-ECHELON.md](03-ECHELON.md) **Previous**: [05-SENSOR_FUSION.md](05-SENSOR_FUSION.md) **Next**: [07-GESTURE_RECOGNITION.md](07-GESTURE_RECOGNITION.md) **Crate**: `core/cc-anticipation/` **Tests**: 50 passing The `cc-anticipation` crate converts stabilized motion windows into **anticipatory signals**. Unlike reactive systems that trigger on gesture completion, anticipation operates on the **pre-completion phase** of motion. This is the **key insight** of Computational Choreography: we don't wait for motion to complete. We detect when motion becomes **irreversible** and act on **intention** rather than completion. **See**: [01-COMPUTATIONAL_CHOREOGRAPHY.md](01-COMPUTATIONAL_CHOREOGRAPHY.md) for the philosophical foundation. The key insight of anticipation is that **commitment** and **uncertainty** provide a two-dimensional space for proactive decision-making:

Corpus pages are public-safe readers for discovered workspace artifacts. They are not automatically final papers. A corpus item becomes a polished paper only after the editable source, evidence checkpoints, references, figures, render path, and release status are attached through the paper schema.
