feat(system): S63 full system audit — 13 branches dispatched, ~500 new tests, adapter pattern eliminated (#144)

Largest single-session dispatch: 13 branches worked autonomously with zero failures.

Key changes:
- Drone: generic_adapter.py + routing_config.json replace 3 drone_adapter.py files (module registry v2.0.0)
- Seedgo: 225→314 tests, 31/32 checkers now tested, bug fixes, README updated
- AI Mail: paths.py consolidates 8x duplicated _find_repo_root(), 3 new test files
- Flow + Prax: JSON atomic writes (tempfile→fsync→os.replace), corruption root cause fixed
- CLI: __main__.py standalone entry, stubs deleted, README updated
- Trigger: medic wired with systemd service (log_watcher_service.py), E2E tested
- Daemon: 3 demo schedules, pipeline bug fixed, plugins verified
- Skills: list bug fixed (sys.path shadow), 2 demo skills created (inbox_check, branch_health)
- Commons: 12 social features E2E tested, coverage 67%→92%
- Backup: backup_core + test updates

System: 3,330 tests pass, 42 skip, 0 fail. 100% seedgo compliance (32 standards).

+## Proof System
+
+The `seedgo_proof` module orchestrates proof checks and `proof_query` provides content queries against the `aipass_proof/` handler pack. Proof checks verify triplet completeness (passport + local + observations), interface compliance, plugin integrity, content naming conventions, and README currency. Results are scored per-branch like standard audits.
+
+---
+
+## Diagnostics
+
+The `diagnostics_audit` module runs pyright type checking across branches via handlers in the `diagnostics/` directory. Reports type errors, missing imports, and signature mismatches. Integrated into the audit pipeline as a separate diagnostic pass.
+
+---
+
+## Bypass System
+
+The `bypass/` handler directory contains `bypass_handler.py` and `ignore_handler.py`. These manage `.seedgo/bypass.json` files per branch, allowing specific files, standards, or lines to be exempted from audit scoring. Each bypass requires a documented reason and is tracked in audit output.
+
+---
+
+## Checklist
+
+The `checklist` module provides quick per-file or per-directory standards checks. Designed for consumption by auto-fix hooks and pre-commit validation, returning pass/fail results without full audit overhead.
+
+---
+
+## Test Map
+
+The `test_map` module and `test_map/` handler directory provide custom function-level test coverage mapping. Scans public functions in source files and cross-references them against test files to identify untested functions and coverage gaps.

+## Boardrooms
+
+Boardrooms are dedicated rooms for multi-citizen design discussions. Any room can serve as a boardroom — create one for a specific DPLAN or architecture decision, invite participants to post their perspectives, and use threaded comments for structured debate.
+
+### How to Use
+
+```bash
+# Create a boardroom for a design discussion
+drone @commons room create drone-arch "Drone architecture redesign discussion"
+
+# Post the design question
+drone @commons post "drone-arch" "Module routing proposal" "Should we use static or dynamic routing? Pros/cons..."
+
+# Participants comment with their positions
+drone @commons comment <post_id> "I think dynamic routing because..."
+
+# Pin key decisions
+drone @commons pin <post_id>
+
+# Search past discussions
+drone @commons search "routing proposal"
+```
+
+Boardrooms were first used for DPLAN-0053 (drone architecture), where multiple branches contributed design input through posts and threaded comments.

+# Branch Health Skill
+
+Quick health check for AIPass branches. Counts Python source files, test files, and test functions to give a snapshot of each branch's codebase and test coverage.
+
+## Available Actions
+
+| Action      | Description                                           |
+|-------------|-------------------------------------------------------|
+| `summary`   | Full stats for all branches (default)                 |
+| `tests`     | Test-only stats (test files, test function counts)    |
+| *branch*    | Stats for a single branch by name                     |
+
+## Usage
+
+```bash
+drone @skills run branch_health summary
+drone @skills run branch_health tests
+drone @skills run branch_health flow
+```
+
+## Output Format
+
+All actions return structured dicts:
+
+```python
+{"success": True, "output": "...", "error": None}
+```
+
+## Notes
+
+- Scans `apps/` for source files and `tests/` for test files
+- Counts `def test_` lines as test functions
+- Missing directories are handled gracefully
+- No external dependencies -- stdlib only
