: 'CPO — Tacit Knowledge Capture: A Falsifiable Hypothesis and Pilot Experiment Design'

This project presents the CPO Hypothesis (Osmotic Procedural Consciousness Protocol), proposed by Joseph Castillo. The central claim is that expert tacit knowledge of the second order — the heuristic intuition that guides problem-solving before outcomes are known — is encoded in the structure of process trajectories (action sequences, decision timing, backtracking patterns) in a way that is distinguishable from novice process by an informed observer, without requiring explicit articulation by the expert. H1 (falsifiable): Domain-informed blind judges can identify experts from process records alone at a rate significantly above chance (>70%, p
