docs: refresh §14 tracker + README/AGENTS for the heph.nvim UX iteration

The plugin is built, installed, and well past 11a–11c. Record the post-11c UX
iteration (managed daemon + self-heal, follow-or-create, home/index, dailies
picker, interactive views, dev isolation, fully-Dagger CI) as done, and reset
the "not yet done" backlog to lead with the highest-value next work:
task-scheduling UX (do-date/late-on/recurrence from the editor), then more
surfacing (backlinks/tags/health/log-read), 11d (deferred), and the heph.nvim
repo split.

 ## 14. Implementation status (Phase 1 tracker)
 
-> Cross-session resume tracker for the Phase 1 C1 (branch `feature/v1-prototype`, PR #1). Updated 2026-06-02 — **117 Rust tests green** (`cargo test --all`) + the heph.nvim headless e2e suite (`mise run test-nvim`, 7 specs; also runs in CI via `dagger call test-nvim`), `clippy -D warnings` + `fmt` + `prek` clean. Workspace: `crates/heph-core`, `crates/hephd`, `crates/heph`, plus `heph.nvim/` (slices 11a–11c).

 - ✅ **`heph.nvim` slice 11a (§8) — the primary surface begins:** the Lua plugin (`heph.nvim/`) as a thin client of the `hephd` unix socket. **RPC client** over a `vim.uv` pipe (blocking `call` via `vim.wait`; id-demuxed; partial-line buffered; `luanil` so JSON `null`→`nil`; isolated `Session`s for tests). **Buffer-backed nodes** — `heph://node/<id>` buffers (`buftype=acwrite`), `BufReadCmd`→`node.get` / `BufWriteCmd`→`node.update` (whole-buffer body, CRDT-diffed; exact round-trip). **`[[wiki-link]]` follow** on `<CR>` via a new **`node.resolve {title}`** RPC (exact alias-then-title match, the same mapping that materializes `wiki` links — never fuzzy `search`; unresolved links allowed). **Daily journal** (`:Heph today`/`journal <date>`, idempotent). `:Heph` command surface + completion. **Headless e2e (§9):** drives the plugin in `nvim --headless` against a real daemon over a temp socket via a **self-contained busted-style runner** (`tests/e2e/runner.lua` — no external plugins/network, deterministic exit codes); specs cover journal round-trip, follow-link (+ unresolved no-op), and link-two-docs/backlink. `mise run test-nvim` builds the daemon and runs the suite (dev: system nvim/rustc; CI: a Dagger container provides them — slice 11c).
 - ✅ **`heph.nvim` slice 11b (§8) — task views:** **`list` enriched** to titled [`RankedTask`] rows (title + `canonical_context_id`, shared `ranked_from_row` with `next`) so the Organizational view needs no N+1 `node.get`. Plugin: **Tactical `next`** + **Organizational `list`** views (rendered scratch buffers, `<CR>` opens a row's canonical-context doc — the node autocmd narrowed to `heph://node/*` so view buffers don't trip it); **task capture**, **set-attention**, **done/drop**, **skip**, **per-task `log` append** — all resolving "the current task" from the buffer (a `task` node, or a context doc via its `canonical-context` backlink); **`vim.ui.select` picker** (`picker.lua`) with Telescope auto-upgrade; `:Heph next/list/capture/attention/done/drop/skip/log/search` subcommands. e2e specs: **capture→next→open context→add/check checklist→done**, and **recurring fresh-checklist** (complete rolls forward in place; the next occurrence is all-unchecked — the §4.4 hard requirement).
 - ✅ **`heph.nvim` slice 11c (§8) — promotion + Dagger CI:** backend **`task.promote {container_id, item_ref, attention?, project?}`** — mints a committed task from the `item_ref`-th `- [ ]` context item (1-based, document order via a new `extract::context_item_lines`) and rewrites that source line into a `[[link]]` to it. **Wiki-link resolution now excludes canonical-context docs** (`resolve_id`), so `[[Task Title]]` deterministically resolves to the task, not its identically-titled context doc — a general fix surfaced by promotion. Plugin: `:Heph promote`, `promote_under_cursor` (save-if-dirty → `util.context_item_index_at_cursor` mirrors extract's fence rules → `task.promote` → reload). e2e spec (f). **CI via Dagger:** a `test_nvim` function in `.dagger/` bakes a **pinned, arch-detected Neovim** (`v0.11.2`; Debian's is too old for `vim.uv`) onto `rust:1-bookworm`, builds `hephd`, and runs the shim suite (cargo + cargo-target cache volumes); `build.yaml` calls `dagger call test-nvim`. `run.lua` fails on zero-specs (no false-green) — validated end-to-end (failing spec → Dagger exit 1).
+- ✅ **`heph.nvim` UX iteration + install (§8) — post-11c, makes the plugin a daily driver:**
+  - **Plug-and-play managed daemon:** `setup({})` spawns + supervises its own `hephd` (default XDG paths), kills only what it spawned on exit, and **self-heals** (`rpc.call` respawns + retries once on a dropped connection). A daemon you run yourself is respected (spawn only when nothing serves the socket); `autostart=false` ⇒ connect-only. **Bugfix:** `daemon.wait_ready` must not call the rpc probe inside a `vim.wait` predicate (nested `vim.wait` deadlocks Neovim) — bit on the 2nd launch via the prior daemon's stale socket; now a plain-loop probe + socket-unlink on exit, with a regression test.
+  - **Knowledge-base UX:** **follow-or-create** (`<CR>` on an unresolved `[[link]]` mints the doc + materializes the source backlink), **`:Heph doc`**, **`:Heph home`** (an open-or-create index/landing page), **`:Heph journals`** (recent-days dailies picker with Telescope preview + `@create`).
+  - **Interactive task views:** `:Heph next`/`list` buffers gained `a` add / `d` done / `r` refresh (+ `<CR>` open), with a dimmed key-hint **header line** (virt-lines-above the first row render off-screen — use a real header).
+  - **Dev/installed isolation:** installed `heph`/`hephd` own the default paths; `mise run dev` runs the working-tree daemon on `.dev/` paths; `$HEPH_SOCKET`/`$HEPH_DB` point a dev Neovim at it.
+  - **CI is now fully Dagger** (`build.yaml`: `dagger call check` + `test-nvim`; **prek dropped from CI** — the Alpine job image has no Rust/nvim/prek, only Dagger + DinD). First-ever green CI.
 
 **Not yet done (resume order)**
 
 > The Rust backend is feature-complete; `heph.nvim` slices 11a–11c are done — the v1 surface (knowledge base + task views + promotion) works end-to-end with CI. The remainder is the deferred reconcile slice plus non-blocking polish + an end-of-v1 sweep (§11).
 
-1. ⏳ **`heph.nvim` slice 11d (§6/§8) — DEFERRED, post-parity:** daemon **server-push** notification framing (no-`id` lines on the socket; the client read-loop already demuxes them) + the **dirty-buffer reconcile** (the §8 "known-hard" case) + the "update-arrives-while-open" e2e (§9).
-3. ⏳ **Adoption refinement + multi-tenant (§13) — non-blocking:** local→authed **adoption** currently rewrites `owner_id` (`adopt_owner`) but not yet the owner-embedded deterministic ids (journal/tag) + their links; and the hub is single-tenant (one owner per store) — owner-per-token storage is a future extension.
-4. ⏳ **Dependency-refresh pass (§11) — before declaring v1 done:** sweep all external deps to latest stable (e.g. `keyring` 3→4, which restructured to `keyring_core`), re-run the full suite.
+1. ⏳ **Task-scheduling UX (§7, §8) — the highest-value next gap:** the plugin can only set a task's **title + attention** today. The engine fully supports **do-date / late-on / recurrence / project**, but nothing in the editor sets them — so the ranking has no urgency signals to work with from nvim. Surface these (capture-with-fields and an edit affordance), and show do/late in the `next`/`list` rows.
+2. ⏳ **More surfacing of existing engine features (§6, §8):** a **backlinks/links** picker (navigate the graph back), **tags**, a **`health`** working-set view (orange-vs-6, active-vs-~30), and **log read** (`log.tail`) — the resumption breadcrumb on return.
+3. ⏳ **`heph.nvim` slice 11d (§6/§8) — DEFERRED, post-parity:** daemon **server-push** notification framing (no-`id` lines on the socket; the client read-loop already demuxes them) + the **dirty-buffer reconcile** (the §8 "known-hard" case) + the "update-arrives-while-open" e2e (§9).
+4. ⏳ **Split `heph.nvim` to its own forge repo (§8) — UX polish:** generated from this monorepo (subtree-split in CI) so the lazy spec becomes `{ "eblume/heph.nvim" }` instead of a local-clone `dir` (see [[install-heph]]).
+5. ⏳ **Adoption refinement + multi-tenant (§13) — non-blocking:** local→authed **adoption** currently rewrites `owner_id` (`adopt_owner`) but not yet the owner-embedded deterministic ids (journal/tag) + their links; and the hub is single-tenant (one owner per store) — owner-per-token storage is a future extension.
+6. ⏳ **Dependency-refresh pass (§11) — before declaring v1 done:** sweep all external deps to latest stable (e.g. `keyring` 3→4, which restructured to `keyring_core`), re-run the full suite.
