v0.2.1: polish, deploy, CI, and literate refactor

- Secret Exposure Gate + Privacy Filter (Bouncer)
- Shell actuator safety harness (timeout, blocked patterns)
- REPL-first enforcement (lisp validation gate, system-prompt-augment)
- Engineering Standards lifecycle (two-track Org-first + REPL-first)
- Literate Programming discipline (one function per block, reflect-back)
- AGENTS.md: thin routing layer, skills are authoritative
- SKILLS_DIR removed, ~/notes fallback eliminated
- opencortex.sh: multi-distro (Debian+Fedora), configure, install service, backup, restore, help
- infrastructure/opencortex.service (systemd user unit)
- Docker: updated to debian:trixie, fixed build context
- GitHub CI: lint + test workflows fixed, trigger on tags only
- Gitea CI: deploy workflow paths fixed
- README: one-line curl install, badges
- USER_MANUAL: Deployment section (bare metal, Docker, backup)
- .gitignore: skills/*.lisp and tests/*.lisp as generated artifacts
- Prose/block refactor across all 35 org files
- Test suite Tier 1: 43/45 pass (env-dependent failures isolated)

 * Installation
 OpenCortex is bootstrapped via a single shell script.
 
+** Quick start (curl)

 #+begin_src bash
-git clone ssh://git@10.10.10.201:2222/amr/opencortex.git
-cd opencortex
-./opencortex.sh setup

-This process will install SBCL, Quicklisp, and prompt you to create a `.env` file for your API keys.

+
+#+begin_src bash
+git clone https://github.com/amrgharbeia/opencortex.git ~/projects/opencortex
+~/projects/opencortex/opencortex.sh configure

+Both methods will:
+1. Install system dependencies (SBCL, Emacs, git, curl, socat — detected for Debian or Fedora)
+2. Install Quicklisp (Common Lisp package manager)
+3. Tangle literate Org sources into runnable Lisp
+4. Launch the interactive setup wizard (LLM providers, gateways)
+
+If you already have Emacs installed, the installer skips it and uses your existing installation.

+* Deployment
+
+** Bare metal (Debian / Fedora)
+
+The ~configure~ command supports both Debian-based (Ubuntu, Pop, Mint) and Fedora-based (RHEL, Rocky) distributions. It detects your distro automatically and installs the correct packages.
+
+#+begin_src bash
+./opencortex.sh configure              # interactive
+./opencortex.sh configure --non-interactive  # headless
+./opencortex.sh configure --with-firewall    # also open port 9105
+#+end_src
+
+After configuration, you can re-run ~configure~ any time to add providers or link gateways.
+
+** systemd service (auto-start on boot)
+
+#+begin_src bash
+./opencortex.sh install service
+#+end_src
+
+Installs a user-level systemd unit that starts the daemon on login. Logs are available via ~journalctl --user -u opencortex.service -f~.
+
+To remove:
+
+#+begin_src bash
+./opencortex.sh uninstall service
+#+end_src
+
+** Docker
+
+A Debian-based Docker image is provided for containerized deployment.
+
+#+begin_src bash
+cd infrastructure/docker
+docker-compose up -d
+#+end_src
+
+This builds an image from ~debian:trixie-slim~ with all dependencies pre-installed. The memex directory is mounted from the host.
+
+** Backup
+
+#+begin_src bash
+./opencortex.sh backup ~/my-backup.tar.gz
+#+end_src
+
+Backs up the config, data, and memex directories.
+
+** Restore
+
+#+begin_src bash
+./opencortex.sh restore ~/my-backup.tar.gz
+#+end_src
+
+Restores from a backup file. Run ~opencortex doctor~ afterward to verify integrity.
