docs: import project memory & history from Private-Workshop

[SamErde]

What

Consolidates the Personas project's Claude context into the repo. The extension was built inside the Private-Workshop multi-root workspace, so its project memory and history ended up stored against that workspace instead of this repo.

• docs/project-memory/*.md — the imported Claude memory files (profile-extension-manager-project.md, personas-release-workflow.md, MEMORY.md index), lightly cleaned per review of machine/session export metadata and personal phrasing.
• docs/project-memory/history.md — a curated, Personas-only development timeline extracted from the workspace .remember journals (unrelated tooling/DSC/tenant entries omitted).
• CLAUDE.md — a lean, auto-loaded project guide (durable conventions + pointers to the archive above).

Notes

• The source memory files have been removed from the Private-Workshop workspace store (this repo is now the single home). The .remember journals were left untouched (mixed-project content).
• Docs-only; no code, tests, or workflows affected.

Pull request overview

Adds the Personas project “memory” and a curated development timeline into this repo’s docs/ so future work isn’t tied to the original Private-Workshop multi-root workspace context.

Changes:

• Added exported project-memory markdown files (project state + release workflow guidance) under docs/project-memory/.
• Added a curated Personas-only development timeline in docs/project-memory/history.md.
• Added a small MEMORY.md index linking the new memory documents.
