Pirsig and ZAMM in the abstract and on Zenodo; live links fixed; README in one screen; archify and compound; ouroboric refreshed

[h0ffmann]

One pull request for the owner's requests of 18 October 2026.

What changes

• Live links. Every failed live links run since 15 October 2026 (15 runs) failed on one link: planalto.gov.br does not answer outside Brazil. Its address is now code, beside the same law in the Câmara dos Deputados' collection. docs/4-ways-of-working/md-quality.md says why. No check was weakened.
• Pirsig on science. Two new notes: a literature note on ZAMM chapter 10 ("The number of rational hypotheses that can explain any given phenomenon is infinite", p. 107), and a permanent note with the owner's position that open source comes first for science. One new essay: The hypotheses have no end, 2026. It has one [AUTHOR ANECDOTE] marker open.
• ZAMM in the book.
  • The abstract names ZAMM in all four places: en, STE, pt-BR and the easy abstract.
  • Section 1 cites pirsig1974zen. It is partial in REFERENCES.md: the sentence and the page were read online, not in print.
  • STE100.md logs the pass.
• ZAMM on Zenodo. .zenodo.json gets references with ISBN 0688002307, scheme isbn. tools/fabric citation now accepts ISBNs, with a test. Zenodo shows the tie only from the next release. RELATED_WORK.md lists it as waiting.
• README in one screen, after ww3-gpu's. The first screen has these sections: in one minute, where to start, history and intent, the big references (ZAMM first), licence research, other works by the writer, the engineering loop. The rest is collapsed. The easy pt-BR version is now a badge and a row in "where to start". It was rewritten from the top and stamped.
• Compound Engineering and Archify, as in ww3-gpu.
  • The plugin is pinned to compound-engineering-v3.30.3. Its config is .compound-engineering/config.yaml, and its plans and lessons go to docs/compound/.
  • Archify is the submodule vendor/archify at 2ab3cae. .claude/skills/archify is a link to it. It adds just archify and docs/archify/, with no drawings yet.
  • AGENTS.md gets a section on the compound loop. It also gets the vendored-skill exception, which the owner approved.
• Ouroboric.
  • OUROBORIC.md and OUROBORIC_RESEARCH.md are read again from 13 public repositories. Eight are new and are added to tools/src/fabric/ouroboric.gleam.
  • AGENTS.md, SECURITY.md, TRADEMARKS.md and the copied docs/4-ways-of-working/ouroboric/ are pinned to the new commits.
  • ouroboric-dev/contact gives 404 now. ISSUE_LABELS.md says so.

Not done, and for the owner

• CITATION_SCORES.md still scores .github at b799793. just citation-board rescores it, and that changes the numbers, so it was left for a separate run.
• OUROBORIC.md section 13 lists 16 open points upstream, for example a Ginnungagap design doc that is linked but absent.
• The live-links run of this pull request is the proof of the link fix.
