Adaptive gain numerator uses the squared error norm · case 03

The step gain ignores how well the predicted motion aligns with the error.

Case contract

Input [l1,l2,q1,q2,tx,ty]: one Jacobian-transpose step for a planar 2R arm with the error-optimal gain alpha = <e, J J^T e> / <J J^T e, J J^T e>, dq = alpha J^T e. When <J J^T e, J J^T e> < 1e-15 return ["stationary", q1, q2]. Otherwise return ["step", alpha (6 decimals), q1 and q2 updated in degrees (4 decimals)].

Why this case matters

Inverse kinematics code turns task-space goals into joint commands; a wrong branch, sign, limit or update order sends a real arm to the wrong pose.
