Anomaly Bloom

surface unusual behavior as local heat and instability

Running the actual pattern live via applyPattern() — switch the substrate, stack overlays, watch the signals, or reverse the dynamics. Not a mock.

"Anomaly Bloom" — surface unusual behavior as local heat and instability. It has a thermal layer (agitate matter at a temperature), a diffuse layer (spread a quantity over the medium), a pressure layer (relax crowding (incompressibility)), a morph layer (assemble matter into a mark/shape (never words, §11)), and a memory layer (a decaying trail / hysteresis). The active render stack is heatmap, metaballs, particles.

Anomalies bloom locally as thermal heat that diffuses outward; they never auto-alarm, instead letting heat, pressure, and spread reveal whether the event is isolated, growing, or cooling into memory (the weak interaction is the local instability that lets behavior morph).

Concepts: anomaly bloom
Metrics: anomaly a semantic lane — drive it with data-field-<metric> (or a domain model); without that its --field-<metric> stays inertheat a semantic lane — drive it with data-field-<metric> (or a domain model); without that its --field-<metric> stays inertspread a semantic lane — drive it with data-field-<metric> (or a domain model); without that its --field-<metric> stays inertconfidence written only when the host supplies it — the engine never invents confidence/risk anomaly, heat, spread are host-supplied lanes — drive them with data-field-<metric> (or a domain model); without that, their --field-* stays inert.
Diagnostics: heatmap contours energy causality
Conditions: threshold
Render: heatmap · metaballs · particles
Reduced motion: anomaly badges with an affected-region list and a severity gradient
Without motion: each anomaly is a labelled badge with a severity value and the region it affects, ranked by heat
