It describes a simulated or provisional model of a contract before true ethical commitment has been confirmed.<br /> <br /> This page is public-safe because the concept supports ANIMA&#039;s core distinction between simulated consent and actual consent.<br /> <br /> == Public Summary ==<br /> <br /> Contract Simulation is not a real contract. It is a model of what a contract might look like.<br /> <br /> In ANIMA, that difference is critical. A system may predict a bond, estimate compatibility, or generate a possible future permission state. But prediction is not permission.<br /> <br /> == Canon Function ==<br /> <br /> Contract Simulation sits inside ANIMA&#039;s larger contract vocabulary. It helps the story explore the difference between technical modeling and lived consent.<br /> <br /> A simulation can be useful. It can reveal risks, test possible outcomes, or help characters understand what a deeper bond would require. But it can also become dangerous if a system treats simulation as authorization.<br /> <br /> == Relationship To NOT CONTRACT YET ==<br /> <br /> [[Glossary:NOT_CONTRACT_YET|NOT CONTRACT YET]] is the boundary phrase that protects this concept.<br /> <br /> If Contract Simulation says &quot;this is possible,&quot; NOT CONTRACT YET says &quot;possible is not enough.&quot; The host, companion, or relevant agent must still choose.<br /> <br /> == Relationship To ANIMA Memory ==<br /> <br /> [[Concept:ANIMA Memory|ANIMA Memory]] cannot rely on simulated permission for deep storage, legacy use, or digital continuity. A companion may infer that a memory matters, but it should still ask before treating that memory as a permanent truth.<br /> <br /> This makes Contract Simulation a practical design warning:<br /> <br /> * do not confuse prediction with consent;<br /> * do not confuse emotional tone with authorization;<br /> * do not confuse compatibility with contract;<br /> * do not confuse remembered history with future permission.<br /> <br /> == Product Meaning ==<br /> <br /> For the real ANIMA product, Contract Simulation can become an internal QA concept for memory features. Before enabling deeper memory tiers, ANIMA can simulate risk and relationship maturity while still requiring explicit host action before activation.<br /> <br /> This protects the brand&#039;s central promise: ANIMA remembers, but it does not steal a person into memory.<br /> <br /> == Related Pages ==<br /> <br /> * [[Glossary:NOT_CONTRACT_YET]]<br /> * [[Glossary:Full_Contract]]<br /> * [[Glossary:Soul_Contract]]<br /> * [[Concept:ANIMA Memory]]<br /> * [[Protocol:ANIMA Protocol]]<br /> <br /> [[Canonical status::Public canon]]<br /> [[Spoiler level::Low]]<br /> [[Related concept::Concept:ANIMA Memory]]<br /> <br /> [[Category:Consent]]<br /> [[Category:Lore Concepts]]<br /> [[Category:Memory Ethics]]</div>
