docs: consolidate portfolio authority and verification

[atomicdjt]

Purpose

Replace the noisy remediation branch with one clean, reviewable governance patch based directly on main.

Changes

• keep config/vercel-projects.json as the single canonical project/deployment catalog;
• correct WeaveStudio authority to main and retain BuildWorld’s unresolved production-target boundary;
• synchronize the root README, recruiter guide, employer overview, project index, rankings, and verification guide;
• add one portfolio-authority validator and run it from the existing Portfolio CI workflow;
• document AI-assisted authorship and evidence boundaries;
• add an ethical external-validation protocol;
• add change-control and Vercel-consolidation runbooks;
• preserve the existing guarded affected-project deployment controller and explicitly defer native-Git cutover until credentials, a single-project preview, and rollback are verified.

Safety boundary

• one commit based directly on main;
• no application source changes;
• no production branch changes;
• no Vercel project, domain, alias, environment variable, or deployment deleted or modified;
• no unsupported traction, customer, revenue, security, or production-readiness claims;
• no automatic merge.

Pre-publication validation

• authority validator passed against the assembled tree;
• JSON and workflow YAML parsed successfully;
• changed-document link targets were checked against the patch and existing repository paths;
• the exact Git commit was compared with main: 14 files, one commit, zero app-source changes.

Required before merge

• Portfolio CI must complete successfully, including documentation, authority, deployment-policy, selector, lint, typecheck, tests, and builds;
• Vercel checks must no longer be failing for an unresolved rate-limit or build reason;
• review the wording and canonical URLs;
• leave account-level Vercel cleanup for an explicitly approved, separately verified operation.
