…documentation overhaul
This commit introduces significant improvements to project structure, installation
workflow, and documentation quality:
## New Features
- **License Compliance**: Added NOTICE file with Apache 2.0 headers and proper
third-party attributions (Ghidra, capa)
- **Modular Tooling**: Created standalone utilities for better user experience:
* kernagent-config: Interactive configuration editor
* kernagent-update: Version management with tag pinning support
* kernagent-uninstall: Clean removal of all installed components
## Refactoring
- **Installation System**: Transformed monolithic install.sh into a bootstrapper
that delegates to modular scripts in scripts/ directory
* Core logic moved to scripts/install.sh (234 lines)
* Main wrapper extracted to scripts/kernagent (180 lines)
* 538 lines removed from root install.sh
- **Documentation**: Complete README.md restructure for clarity and usability
* Added 3 clear installation paths (wrapper, Docker Compose, raw Docker)
* Better emphasis on offline-first and headless design
* Streamlined quick-start with verification steps
* Improved model configuration guidance
* Net reduction in length while adding more actionable content
- **Docker Setup**: Simplified docker-compose.yml configuration
* Removed complex anchor patterns
* Cleaner service definitions

The build-release job was doing a shallow clone, preventing git describe from finding previous tags. This caused all releases to show 'Initial Release' instead of proper 'Changes since vX.Y.Z' notes. Added fetch-depth: 0 to checkout step to fetch all history and tags. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

Solution

This fix will be verified on the next tag release (v1.0.3 or later). The CI will now be able to:
