The computation system of constructive type theory is open-ended so that theorems about computation will hold for a broad class of extensions to the system. We show that despite this openness it is possible to completely reflect the computation system into the language in a clear way by adding simple primitive concepts that anticipate the reflection. This work provides a hook for developing methods to modify the built-in evaluator and to treat the issues of intensionality and computational complexity in programming logics and provides a basis for reflecting the deductive apparatus of type theory.
