Jorus120/Compression-Scale-Law

A lightweight method to flag hidden structure and instability in time series. CSL compares how well real data compresses against null surrogates (or uses a simple variance-ratio proxy) across different window sizes. If the data is consistently more compressible than chance, the slope of that scaling gives an index (α) of hidden order.
