Set up hephaestus from template and add design + tech spec
Customize the generated repo (rename Dagger module to hephaestus_ci /
HephaestusCi, set docs baseUrl, add All-Rights-Reserved LICENSE, update
README/AGENTS), and add the project's foundational design documentation:

- docs/explanation/design.md — rationale + decision-history record
- docs/reference/tech-spec.md — implementation-ready technical spec

These define hephaestus as a self-hosted, client/server + offline-first
system unifying a markdown knowledge base with task management: typed node
graph, the lived priority discipline ("what is next?"), recurrence with
fresh-per-occurrence checklists, op-log/CRDT sync with conflict resolution,
OIDC/Authentik auth, the heph.nvim surface, and a TDD strategy.

hephaestus

A personal context management system — a unified, self-hosted application that fuses a wiki-style knowledge base (Zettelkasten) with task management. Built in Rust, offline-capable, and syncs to a central instance hosted in blumeops.

See the project design document for goals, architecture, and the development roadmap.
