-The first programming language for choreographers of figure skating.
+= Anvomidav
+
+**The first programming language for choreographers of figure skating.**
+
+== Status
+
+[IMPORTANT]
+====
+This project is in the *concept phase*. The repository contains project infrastructure and governance documents, but no implementation yet. See link:ROADMAP.adoc[ROADMAP.adoc] for planned development.
+====
+
+== Vision
+
+Anvomidav aims to provide figure skating choreographers with a domain-specific language (DSL) to:
+
+* **Notate** — Precisely describe skating elements, transitions, and sequences
+* **Compose** — Build complex programs from reusable choreographic patterns
+* **Validate** — Check technical compliance with ISU (International Skating Union) rules
+* **Visualize** — Generate rink diagrams, timing charts, and 3D previews
+* **Collaborate** — Share and version-control choreographic works
+
+== Name
+
+_Anvomidav_ — etymology and meaning to be documented.
+
+== Technology Stack
+
+Per the link:.claude/CLAUDE.md[Hyperpolymath Standard]:

+= Anvomidav Roadmap
+
+This document outlines the development phases for Anvomidav, the first programming language for figure skating choreographers.
+
+== Current Status
+
+[CAUTION]
+====
+**Phase 0 — Project Specification**
+
+The repository currently contains governance and infrastructure only. Implementation has not begun.
+====
+
+'''
+
+== Phase 1: Foundation
+
+=== 1.1 Domain Research
+* [ ] Document figure skating element taxonomy (jumps, spins, steps, lifts)
+* [ ] Map ISU technical panel guidelines to formal rules
+* [ ] Interview choreographers to understand workflow needs
+* [ ] Survey existing notation systems (Benesh, Labanotation adaptations)
+
+=== 1.2 Language Design
+* [ ] Define core syntax for element notation
+* [ ] Design timing/music synchronization primitives
+* [ ] Specify spatial positioning system (rink coordinates)
+* [ ] Create grammar specification (EBNF or similar)
+* [ ] Write language reference document
+
+=== 1.3 Tooling Bootstrap
+* [ ] Set up build system (Nix flake, Guix manifest)
+* [ ] Configure CI/CD pipelines
+* [ ] Establish test framework
+
+'''
+
+== Phase 2: Core Implementation
+
+=== 2.1 Parser & AST
+* [ ] Implement lexer
+* [ ] Implement parser
+* [ ] Define AST representation
+* [ ] Add source location tracking for error messages
+
+=== 2.2 Semantic Analysis
+* [ ] Type system for skating elements
+* [ ] Temporal constraint checking
+* [ ] Spatial collision detection (basic)
+* [ ] ISU rule validation
+
+=== 2.3 Compiler/Interpreter
