poc-memory v0.4.0: graph-structured memory with consolidation pipeline

Browse source 
Rust core:
- Cap'n Proto append-only storage (nodes + relations)
- Graph algorithms: clustering coefficient, community detection,
  schema fit, small-world metrics, interference detection
- BM25 text similarity with Porter stemming
- Spaced repetition replay queue
- Commands: search, init, health, status, graph, categorize,
  link-add, link-impact, decay, consolidate-session, etc.

Python scripts:
- Episodic digest pipeline: daily/weekly/monthly-digest.py
- retroactive-digest.py for backfilling
- consolidation-agents.py: 3 parallel Sonnet agents
- apply-consolidation.py: structured action extraction + apply
- digest-link-parser.py: extract ~400 explicit links from digests
- content-promotion-agent.py: promote episodic obs to semantic files
- bulk-categorize.py: categorize all nodes via single Sonnet call
- consolidation-loop.py: multi-round automated consolidation

"""content-promotion-agent.py — promote episodic observations into semantic topic files.
Reads consolidation "manual" actions + source material, sends to Sonnet
to generate the actual content, then applies it (or shows dry-run).
Usage:
content-promotion-agent.py # dry run (show what would be generated)
content-promotion-agent.py --apply # generate and write content
content-promotion-agent.py --task N # run only task N (1-indexed)
