🎼 06c — Echo Classifier

Decision Tree • Echo Typing • Stability Assignment#

The Echo Classifier converts:

• Echo Triggers (06a)
• Echo Signatures (06b)
• Echo Strength Index (04c)
• Substrate Spread (05a)
• Recursion Mode (06)

into a canonical echo type.

Echo classification is essential for:

• stability audits
• drift detection
• recursion diagnostics
• echo‑pressure analysis
• canon sweeps

This module defines the six canonical echo types and the classifier that assigns them.

🔷 1. The Six Canonical Echo Types#

Echo types represent the final identity of an echo.

These types correspond directly to the echo families (F1–F6).

🔷 2. Echo Classification Inputs#

The classifier uses five inputs:

2.1 Trigger Profile (T1–T6)#

From 06a_Echo_Triggers.md.

2.2 Signature Profile (S1–S6)#

From 06b_Echo_Signatures.md.

2.3 Echo Strength Index (ESI‑1 → ESI‑4)#

From 04c_Echo_Strength_Index.md.

2.4 Substrate Spread (1–5 substrates)#

From 05a_CrossSubstrate_Echo_Matrix.md.

2.5 Recursion Mode (R1–R4)#

From 06_Harmonic_Recursion_Detector.md.

These inputs determine the echo type.

🔷 6. Composite Classification Workflow#

[ Identify Trigger ]
        ↓
[ Identify Signature ]
        ↓
[ Measure ESI ]
        ↓
[ Count Substrates ]
        ↓
[ Determine Recursion Mode ]
        ↓
[ Assign Echo Type (E1–E6) ]

This workflow ensures zero‑drift classification.
