**Date**: 2025-12-17 **Decision**: Where should the music analysis pipeline live? 1. **Python (cc-ml/data_pipeline)**: Download, conversion, storage 2. **Rust (cc-echelon)**: Real-time audio engine, media handling, phrase intelligence **Why Python:** - librosa, essentia, aubio are Python libraries - Heavy DSP/ML computation (not latency-critical) - Easy integration with existing download pipeline - Rich ecosystem for audio analysis ### Phase 3-4 (Smart Organization & Playlists) → `apps/desktop/cc-echelon/crates/music-brain/` **Why Rust:** - Real-time playlist generation (latency-critical) - Integration with existing audio-engine - Efficient data structures (BTreeMap for key lookups) - Multi-threading for playlist search - Export to binary DJ software formats

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.
