Crystallizes the dual-brain architecture across all core documents:
- Thalamus runs own neural network (governor) for resource allocation and reflexes
- LLM (Qwen3.5-27B) repositioned as cortex - expensive, gated, called only when needed
- Each NPC gets own process, own RL brain, Linux cgroups for resource steering
- New: NPC grid architecture with curriculum training (progressive world richness)
