MDPE.10:4.3 - Shimon: robot capability, human development decision

The Shimon sources report bounded composition-continuation, marimba performance, actuator, dynamic-range, striking-speed, and gesture results across configurations. For a capability claim, the robot is the holder. Learned generation, sensing, control, actuation, rehearsal, and performance remain different contributions.

The human team is the practice-developing Agent that changes software, mechatronics, and trial conditions, interprets evidence, and chooses later Work. The robot’s performance does not assign that decision to it. Every capability result stays limited to the tested configuration, material, measures, and conditions.
