dtoro 5e3b946ded cleanup: fix all stale references across .agents/ docs
- Rewrite AGENTS.md: DB as source of truth, MCP knowledge tools, archive refs
- Fix OIKOS.md: seeds/ paths, remove Python-era notes, update deployment status
- Fix commands.md, agent-enrollment.md: archive/knowledge/ links
- Fix all SKILL.md files: remove hosts/*.yaml refs, point to inventory.yaml
- Fix HERMES.md, schema.md, page-templates.md, llm-wiki.md: update paths
- Fix bootstrap.sh: identity check reads inventory.yaml
- Fix README.md, cutover-checklist.md: stale wiki references
- Move convert-wiki.py to archive/ (one-shot done)

Operations domain — schema

The operations domain holds the procedural and time-stamped documentation: runbooks (repeatable procedures), investigations (incident evidence), and plans (design docs for non-trivial work). It follows writing-style; runbooks and plans use the imperative voice exception.

Where each kind lives: runbooks are skills under .agents/skills/; operator reference (command cheatsheet, enrollment, Hermes agent) lives in .agents/operations/; investigations are sources under knowledge/sources/investigations/; plans stay in the repo-root plans/ folder (below).

Plans always live in plans/

Any plan or design doc for the Homelab is written into the repo plans/ folder as plans/YYYY-MM-DD-slug.md — never a scratch path, an agent-private plan location, or a chat message. An agent drafting a plan:

  1. Writes the file under plans/ using the plan template in page-templates.md.
  2. Lists it in plans/index.md.
  3. On completion, moves it to plans/done/ and updates the index status.

This is the single source for homelab design intent; keeping it in-repo means the plan is versioned, reviewable, and reachable by MCP get_page/search_docs like any other doc.

Runbooks

Repeatable procedures are skills — one folder per skill at .agents/skills/<name>/SKILL.md, with YAML front-matter that the Oikos policy and lifecycle machinery reads:

---
name: <name>
risk_class: read_only | reversible_low | config_mutation | destructive
inputs: [<param>, ...]
verification: "<shell expression that proves success>"
docs_update_checklist: [<doc artifacts to update>]
transition: "<from> -> <to>"   # only for lifecycle runbooks
---

risk_class values and the lifecycle transition states must match seeds/policy.yaml and seeds/ontology.yaml.

Investigations

Incident records live in knowledge/sources/investigations/YYYY-MM-DD-slug.md and are evidence sources — written once at incident time, then linked from the changelogs of the nodes they implicate. Sections: ## Summary, ## Timeline, ## Root cause, ## Mitigations applied, ## Open questions. Resolved incidents move to knowledge/sources/investigations/archive/.

The operations log

plans/log.md and knowledge/log.md are append-only records of documentation operations on those areas (## [YYYY-MM-DD] <op> | <summary>), distinct from the Oikos change ledger.
