$meta_operator
reflect trace medium

Spw Operator

$ Meta

The meta operator reflects on the medium itself. It asks the surface to show its trace, register, or conditions of interpretation.

^"meta_contract"{

Contract

Interaction

Inspect the medium, trace, or register itself. Meta should reveal how a surface is behaving, not merely add commentary.

Metaphysics

Meta is metacognition: attention notices the instrument it is using to notice.

Brace Physics

A meta brace folds the boundary back onto itself. Its charge should become inspectability rather than hidden mystique.

Symmetry

Prefix $x primes reflection on the next unit. Postfix x$ marks that the unit leaves a reflective trace.
