Subject: [PATCH] Update Zot installation: clone to ~/code/3rd/ and build from
 source

Zot isn't in homebrew. Following existing pattern (like kiwix-tools),
clone to ~/code/3rd/zot on indri and build with 'make binary'.
Updated defaults and LaunchAgent template to use built binary path.

 ### Step 0.3: Create Zot Registry Ansible Role
 
+**Note:** Zot is NOT in homebrew (no formula or tap). Clone to `~/code/3rd/` on indri and build from source (requires Go).
+
+**Prerequisites on indri:**
+```bash
+# Ensure Go is installed (via mise or homebrew)
+ssh indri 'go version'
+
+# Clone zot repository
+ssh indri 'git clone https://github.com/project-zot/zot.git ~/code/3rd/zot'
+
+# Build (creates bin/zot-darwin-arm64)
+ssh indri 'cd ~/code/3rd/zot && make binary'
+```
