dtoro b5c1247093 docs: streamline & consolidate the tree (phase 6)

Problem: after the wiki-hq reorg, agent-instruction and human-doc domains
were still scattered across the repo root, with three now-redundant stub
files cluttering it. The organizing principle wasn't visible in the layout.

Change — enforce three clear buckets:
- .agents/  = how agents operate: OIKOS.md, HERMES.md (moved from root),
  shared/ conventions, domains/ schemas, skills/, and operations/ (operator
  cheatsheet + enrollment + hermes-agent, moved from root).
- knowledge/ = what exists + evidence: wiki/, GLOSSARY.md, and sources/ now
  including investigations/ (incident records are evidence/sources).
- root = substrate + two entry points (AGENTS.md, README.md), plus plans/
  as its own design-intent domain.

Moves:
- investigations/ -> knowledge/sources/investigations/ (incl. archive/, index).
- operations/ -> .agents/operations/.
- HERMES.md -> .agents/HERMES.md.
- Deleted unreferenced root stubs CAVEMAN.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, and OIKOS.md
  (its 7 remaining linkers repointed to .agents/OIKOS.md).

Consumers updated:
- inventory.yaml doc_page (agent-enrollment) + regenerated hosts/*.yaml + cards.
- tools/setup-hermes-soul.sh and bootstrap.sh (x2) -> .agents/HERMES.md.
- bin/homelab help string -> .agents/operations/hermes-agent.md.
- knowledge/operations schemas, llm-wiki, page-templates, incident-investigation
  skill, AGENTS.md/README nav -> new investigations/operations paths.
- All markdown links rewritten via the path-resolving mapper.

Left in place (substrate/executable/separate-domain): hosts/, ledger/, tools/,
plans/, oikos/, mcp/, secrets/, bin/, inventory.yaml.

Verification: docs-lint at baseline (2 intentional cross-repo refs, no new
breakage); gen-topology.py --check exit 0; build_host_files.py idempotent; all
doc_page targets resolve; Hermes provisioning scripts point at the new path.

Client enrollment

Goal: bring a new host (workstation, LXC, VM) into inventory and the secrets model, with mesh membership only where it's actually needed. This wraps the existing homelab client add flow — see operations/agent-enrollment.md for the full walkthrough; this runbook is the risk/lifecycle framing.

On any enrolled client: homelab client add <hostname> — appends a hosts.<name>: block to inventory.yaml (lifecycle state: planned → provisioning, per oikos/ontology.yaml), commits + pushes.
Netbird join is optional, not a required step — only needed for hosts that must be reachable off-LAN (workstations that roam, e.g. republic-laptop, mac-mini). A node reachable on the household LAN (192.168.8.0/24 — most LXCs/VMs) doesn't need it: it's already reachable directly, and off-LAN clients reach it too via hubris's routed 192.168.8.0/24 Netbird network resource. Skip this step for LAN-only nodes; do it (out-of-band, console or setup key) only for hosts that need independent off-LAN reachability.
On the new host: run bootstrap.sh (add --with-hermes to also enroll the Hermes agent). This provisions /etc/age/key.txt, the sync timer, and prints an age pubkey.
Back on an enrolled client: homelab client add <hostname> --finalize-pubkey <age1...> — sets age_pubkey, grants shared secrets, re-keys SOPS, commits + pushes. This is the provisioning → active transition.
Verify: homelab doctor on the new client should show all checks green (clone, sync timer, age key, CLI symlink, MCP reachable).

Docs-update checklist: if the new host is an LXC/VM, add its narrative page under containers/ or vms/ and set doc_page in its inventory entry (host-level cards don't have a doc_page field yet — services do; narrative pages are still found via the generated see_also in hosts/<name>.yaml).
