feat: add ResearchOrchestrator pipeline (src/timmy/research.py)

Implements autonomous research pipeline that chains:
- Check local knowledge (semantic memory cache, confidence > 0.85)
- Generate queries via LLM cascade
- Web search (concurrent, deduplicated)
- Fetch top pages
- Synthesize structured report via LLM
- Crystallize results in semantic memory
- Write artifact (create Gitea issues from action items)

Includes full unit test suite (25 tests) covering all pipeline steps,
cache hits, graceful degradation, and Gitea integration.

Fixes #975

+---
+
+## Detailed Breakdown
+
+### Automation Hub v1 (Due: 2026-04-10)
+Core automation infrastructure - the foundation for all other automation work.
+
+| Issue | Title | Status |
+|-------|-------|--------|
+| #720 | Refine and group Timmy Automations backlog | **In Progress** |
+| #719 | Generate weekly narrative summary of work and vibes | Open |
+
+**Recommendation:** Complete #719 first to establish the narrative logging pattern before other milestones.
+
+---
+
+### Daily Run v1 (Due: 2026-04-15)
+The 10-minute ritual that starts Timmy's day - agenda generation, focus presets, and health checks.
+
+| Issue | Title | Status |
+|-------|-------|--------|
+| #716 | Add focus-day presets for Daily Run and work selection | Open |
+| #704 | Enrich Daily Run agenda with classifications and suggestions | Open |
+| #705 | Add helper to log Daily Run sessions to a logbook issue | Open |
+| #706 | Capture Daily Run feels notes and surface nudges | Open |
+| #707 | Integrate Deep Triage outputs into Daily Run agenda | Open |
+| #708 | Map flakiness and risky areas for test tightening | Open |
+| #709 | Add a library of test-tightening recipes for Daily Run | Open |
+| #710 | Implement quick health snapshot before coding | Open |
+
+**Recommendation:** Start with #710 (health snapshot) as it provides immediate value and informs other Daily Run features. Then #716 (focus presets) to establish the work selection pattern.
+
+---
+
+### Infrastructure (Due: 2026-04-15)
+DevOps and deployment tasks required for production stability.
+
+| Issue | Title | Status |
+|-------|-------|--------|
+| #687 | Pre-commit and pre-push hooks fail on main due to 256 ModuleNotFoundErrors | Open |
+| #688 | Point all 4 domains to Hermes VPS in GoDaddy DNS | Open |
+| #689 | Run SSL provisioning after DNS is pointed | Open |
+
+**Recommendation:** These are sequential - #687 blocks commits, #688 blocks #689. Prioritize #687 for code hygiene.
+
+---
+
+### Dashboard v1 (Due: 2026-04-20)
+Mission Control dashboard for automation visibility. Currently empty as related work is in Token Economy (#712).
+
+**Note:** Issue #718 (dashboard card for Daily Run) is already closed. Issue #712 (agent scorecards) spans both Token Economy and Dashboard milestones.
+
+---
+
+### Inbox & Focus v1 (Due: 2026-04-25)
+Unified view for issue triage and work selection.
+
+| Issue | Title | Status |
+|-------|-------|--------|
+| #715 | Implement Timmy Inbox unified view | Open |
+
+**Note:** This is a significant feature that may need to be broken down further once work begins.
+
+---
+
+### Token Economy v1 (Due: 2026-04-30)
+Reward system for agent participation and quality work.
+
+| Issue | Title | Status |
+|-------|-------|--------|
+| #711 | Centralize agent token rules and hooks for automations | Open |
+| #712 | Generate daily/weekly agent scorecards | Open |
+| #713 | Implement token quest system for agents | Open |
+| #714 | Adapt token rewards based on system stress signals | Open |
+
+**Recommendation:** Start with #711 to establish the token infrastructure, then #712 for visibility. #713 and #714 are enhancements that build on the base system.
+
+---
+
+### Code Hygiene (Due: 2026-04-30)
+Ongoing code quality improvements. These are good "filler" tasks between larger features.
+
+| Issue | Title | Status |
+|-------|-------|--------|
+| #769 | Add unit tests for src/infrastructure/db_pool.py | Open |
+| #770 | Add unit tests for src/dashboard/routes/health.py | Open |
+| #771 | Refactor run_agentic_loop() — 120 lines, extract helpers | Open |
+| #772 | Refactor produce_system_status() — 88 lines, split into sections | Open |
+| #773 | Add docstrings to public functions in src/dashboard/routes/tasks.py | Open |
+| #774 | Add docstrings to VoiceTTS.set_rate(), set_volume(), set_voice() | Open |
+| #775 | Add docstrings to system route functions in src/dashboard/routes/system.py | Open |
+| #776 | Extract hardcoded PRAGMA busy_timeout=5000 to config | Open |
+| #777 | DRY up tasks_pending/active/completed — extract shared helper | Open |
+| #778 | Remove bare `pass` after logged exceptions in src/timmy/tools.py | Open |
+| #779 | Add unit tests for src/timmy/conversation.py | Open |
+| #780 | Add unit tests for src/timmy/interview.py | Open |
+| #781 | Add error handling for missing DB in src/dashboard/routes/tasks.py | Open |
+| #782 | Extract hardcoded sats limit in consult_grok() to config | Open |
+
+**Recommendation:** These are independent and can be picked up in any order. Good candidates for when blocked on larger features.
+
+---
+
+### Matrix Staging (Due: 2026-04-05)
+The Matrix 3D world - UI fixes and WebSocket integration for the Workshop.
+
+**QA Issues:**
+| Issue | Title |
+|-------|-------|
+| #733 | The Matrix staging deployment — 3 issues to fix |
+| #757 | No landing page or enter button — site loads directly into 3D world |
+| #758 | WebSocket never connects — VITE_WS_URL is empty in production build |
+| #759 | Missing Submit Job and Fund Session UI buttons |
+| #760 | Chat messages silently dropped when WebSocket is offline |
+| #761 | All routes serve identical content — no client-side router |
+| #762 | All 5 agents permanently show IDLE state |
+| #763 | Chat clear button overlaps connection status on small viewports |
+| #764 | Mobile: status panel overlaps HUD agent count on narrow viewports |
+
+**UI Enhancement Issues:**
+| Issue | Title |
+|-------|-------|
+| #747 | Add graceful offline mode — show demo mode instead of hanging |
+| #748 | Add loading spinner/progress bar while 3D scene initializes |
+| #749 | Add keyboard shortcuts — Escape to close modals, Enter to submit chat |
+| #750 | Chat input should auto-focus when Workshop panel opens |
+| #751 | Add connection status indicator with color coding |
+| #752 | Add dark/light theme toggle |
+| #753 | Fund Session modal should show explanatory text about what sats do |
+| #754 | Submit Job modal should validate input before submission |
+| #755 | Add About/Info panel explaining what The Matrix/Workshop is |
+| #756 | Add FPS counter visibility toggle — debug-only by default |
+
+**Note:** This milestone has the earliest due date (2026-04-05) and most issues. Consider splitting into "Matrix Critical" (QA blockers) and "Matrix Polish" (UI enhancements).
+
+---
+
+### OpenClaw Sovereignty (Due: 2026-05-15)
+Deploy a sovereign AI agent on Hermes VPS - the long-term goal of Timmy's independence from cloud APIs.
+
+| Issue | Title | Status |
+|-------|-------|--------|
+| #721 | Research: OpenClaw architecture, deployment modes, and Ollama integration | Open |
+| #722 | Research: Best small LLMs for agentic tool-calling on constrained hardware | Open |
+| #723 | Research: OpenClaw SOUL.md and AGENTS.md patterns | Open |

+## Issues Intentionally Left Unassigned
+
+The following issues remain without milestone assignment by design:
+
+### Philosophy Issues
+Ongoing discussion threads that don't fit a milestone structure:
+- #502, #511, #521, #528, #536, #543, #548, #556, #566, #571, #583, #588, #596, #602, #608, #613, #623, #630, #642
+
+### Feature Ideas / Future Work
+Ideas that need more definition before milestone assignment:
+- #654, #653, #652, #651, #650 (ASCII Video showcase)
+- #664 (Chain Memory song)
+- #578, #577, #579 (Autonomous action, identity evolution, contextual mastery)
+
+### Completed Issues
+Already closed issues remain in their original state without milestone assignment.
+
+---
+
+## Recommended Execution Order
+
+Based on priority and dependencies:
+
+1. **Automation Hub v1** (April 10) - Foundation for all automation work
+2. **Daily Run v1** (April 15) - Core developer experience improvement
+3. **Infrastructure** (April 15) - Unblocks production deployments
+4. **Matrix Staging** (April 5) - *Parallel track* - UI team work
+5. **Inbox & Focus v1** (April 25) - Builds on Daily Run patterns
+6. **Dashboard v1** (April 20) - Visualizes Token Economy data
+7. **Token Economy v1** (April 30) - Gamification layer
+8. **Code Hygiene** (April 30) - *Ongoing* - Fill gaps between features
+9. **OpenClaw Sovereignty** (May 15) - Long-term research and deployment
+
+---
+
+## Notes for Future Triage
+
+- Issues should be assigned to milestones at creation time
+- Each milestone should have a "Definition of Done" documented
+- Consider creating epic issues for large milestones (OpenClaw, Matrix)
+- Weekly triage should review unassigned issues and new arrivals
+- Milestone due dates should be adjusted based on velocity
