| """A probabilistic functional-harmony grammar. | |
| Rather than a fixed list of textbook progressions, this assembles phrases from | |
| functional zones — opening (tonic) -> predominant -> dominant -> cadence — with | |
| weighted choices at each step, plus sevenths, inversions, cadential 6-4s, and | |
| secondary dominants. It is a Markov-style generative grammar constrained to | |
| common-practice syntax, so every phrase is musically shaped, cadence-terminated | |
| (key-pinning), and — by construction — labelled correctly. | |
| All chord specs are drawn from a set pre-verified against the gold gate, so the | |
| grammar never emits a chord whose Roman-numeral label disagrees with its pitches. | |
| Deterministic under a seed. | |
