context loader: single strategy file — rename directives slot, drop priorities slot, refresh README+docs

[kokevidaurre]

Founder decision 2026-06-12 (org doc simplification)

The org direction stack went from 4 hand-maintained files to 2:

• STRATEGY.md (company repo) + .agents/memory/company/directives.md → merged into ONE .agents/memory/company/strategy.md read by humans and agents (no two-audience drift — red-team finding hq#464).
• per-squad priorities.md → ELIMINATED (deleted in hq); ordering lives inside goals.md (P0 first, 'Not now' at bottom). Goals are OKR-shaped and aspirational.

CLI changes

1. Rename the context slot: load .agents/memory/company/strategy.md where the loader currently reads directives.md. A directives.md → strategy.md symlink exists in hq as a bridge, so this is non-urgent but should land before any new instance is provisioned (symlinks may not survive all transports). Keep a fallback read of directives.md for older workspaces.
2. Drop the priorities slot: roles that loaded priorities.md (scanner/worker tier) should load goals.md instead. Files are gone in hq — verify the loader degrades gracefully on missing priorities.md TODAY (if it errors, this becomes urgent).
3. README + docs refresh (founder-requested): the context-system documentation (README, docs site pages describing SYSTEM.md → SQUAD.md → priorities → directives cascade) must be regenerated to describe the new chain: SYSTEM.md → SQUAD.md → goals.md → company strategy.md → feedback → state → briefs. Trigger the docs generators (docs#3 pipeline / cli#843 dispatch) after the loader change merges.
4. squads memory / squads goals help text mentioning priorities.md updated accordingly.

Acceptance

• A squad run's injected context contains strategy.md content and goals.md for worker-tier roles; no missing-file warnings.
• README + docs pages describe the 2-file model.

Spec correction after reading run-context.ts + verifying against a live run's injected prompt:

1. The primary company slot is .agents/company.md (loadCompanyContext(), run-context.ts:271) — directives.md is only the FALLBACK and has been dead since 2026-03-24 (company.md existed, so the fallback never fired). Confirmed empirically: a run spawned tonight had the March-era company.md text ('IDP is the differentiator') in its prompt. hq hotfix applied: company.md is now a symlink to memory/company/strategy.md. CLI change wanted: make memory/company/strategy.md the documented primary, keep company.md then directives.md as fallbacks.
2. goals.md already loads as L3 — no change needed there; verified present in the same live prompt.
3. priorities.md slot (L2): safeRead + skip-if-missing → graceful today (verified, no errors with all 21 files deleted). Change = remove the slot + the references in run.ts:256 / org-cycle.ts:69 / init seeds, so fresh squads init workspaces don't create priorities.md.
4. README/docs regen scope unchanged.

Net: smaller change than originally filed — primary-slot docs/rename + L2 removal + init seeds + docs.
