The old README was the scaffolding-era version: said 'V1 in progress',
'no build step', 'will be pushed once vault unlocked' — all stale.
New README reflects what's actually in the repo:
- Repo remote, branch, smoke-test status
- Real file tree under extension/content/ (6 TS modules, not 5)
- Actual build pipeline (npm run build / watch / typecheck)
- Smoke test section with the Playwright workflow that works
- Permission surface as it actually is (storage + host permission)
- Privacy stance — no data collection, ever
Stale scaffolding TODOs removed. The detailed V1 architecture,
risk register, and V2 backlog stay in docs/PLAN.md where they
belong — README is now the entry point, not the plan.
