This document strictly tracks the status of experimental extensions and bridges between the minimal core of Echo Types and other domains.
Note: Bridge materials are speculative and exploratory. They do not affect the core identity or foundational theorems of the repository.
- Status: PARTIAL
- Dependencies: Absolute Zero Framework
- Blockers: End-to-end integration across repositories is not yet mechanically verified here.
- Core Affect: NO
- Status: EXPLORATORY
- Dependencies: None
- Blockers: The quantitative collapse functional on infinite carriers is negatively closed (
collapse-cost-impossible). - Core Affect: NO
- Status: PARTIAL
- Dependencies: None
- Blockers: Witness residues under tropical collapse are established, but broader ecosystem mapping remains incomplete.
- Core Affect: NO
- Status: PARTIAL (11/13 constructors closed under WfCNF; 1 in flight)
- Dependencies: Standard Agda
- Blockers:
<ᵇ-+1joint-bplus is the single remaining open constructor. The head-Ω domination route (option A) has its abstraction + per-marker dominances at both branches + the option-(b) head-Ω inversion lemmas all landed across 2026-05-27 (PRs #124 / #130 / #131); only the WfCNF-carrier structural recursion (Slice 2-bplus) remains. The earlier shared-binder-self-lift blocker is resolved (RankAdm+RankLexslices, 2026-05-26/27). Live tracker:docs/echo-types/buchholz-rank-obstruction.adoc. - Core Affect: NO
- Status: EXPLORATORY
- Dependencies: Categorical foundations
- Blockers: Higher-level abstractions (monads, adjunctions) are still evolving; core functors are stable.
- Core Affect: NO
- Status: EXPLORATORY (R5 deferred-research; cleanly abandonable)
- Dependencies:
EchoIntegration,EchoChoreo,EchoGraded(import only) - Blockers: Bridge is bounded by construction. Closes under any of the documented termination criteria: Track A/B/C failure, all candidate analogies retired, redundancy with retracted-prose graded-comonad framing, forbidden-rebrandings register addition, retraction-watch trip. Companion:
docs/echo-types/explorations/decoration-bridge/README.adoc; module:proofs/agda/EchoDecorationBridge.agda(deliberately not inAll.agda). - Core Affect: NO
