docs: rebrand messaging — 'the self-improving AI agent'

- Lead with the learning loop: autonomous skill creation, skill
  self-improvement, memory nudges, FTS5 session search, Honcho
  dialectic user modeling
- 'Runs anywhere' angle: 6 backends, serverless persistence with
  Daytona/Modal, not tied to your laptop
- 'Built by model trainers' replaces 'model-agnostic'
- Updated README tagline, feature table, subtitle
- Updated docs landing page hero, description, key features
- Updated docusaurus tagline and pyproject.toml description

**The fully open-source AI agent that grows with you.** Install it on a machine, give it your messaging accounts, and it becomes a persistent personal agent — learning your projects, building its own skills, running tasks on a schedule, and reaching you wherever you are.
**The self-improving AI agent built by [Nous Research](https://nousresearch.com).** It's the only agent with a built-in learning loop — it creates skills from experience, improves them during use, nudges itself to persist knowledge, searches its own past conversations, and builds a deepening model of who you are across sessions. Run it on a $5 VPS, a GPU cluster, or serverless infrastructure that costs nearly nothing when idle. It's not tied to your laptop — talk to it from Telegram while it works on a cloud VM.
Use any model you want — [Nous Portal](https://portal.nousresearch.com), [OpenRouter](https://openrouter.ai), OpenAI Codex, or your own endpoint. Switch with `hermes model` — no code changes, no lock-in.

<tr><td><b>A real terminal interface</b></td><td>Full TUI with multiline editing, slash-command autocomplete, conversation history, interrupt-and-redirect, and streaming tool output.</td></tr>
<tr><td><b>Lives where you do</b></td><td>Telegram, Discord, Slack, WhatsApp, and CLI — all from a single gateway process. Voice memo transcription, cross-platform conversation continuity.</td></tr>
<tr><td><b>Grows the longer it runs</b></td><td>Persistent memory across sessions. When it solves a hard problem, it writes a skill document for next time. Skills are searchable, shareable, and compatible with the <a href="https://agentskills.io">agentskills.io</a> open standard.</td></tr>
<tr><td><b>A closed learning loop</b></td><td>Agent-curated memory with periodic nudges. Autonomous skill creation after complex tasks. Skills self-improve during use. FTS5 session search with LLM summarization for cross-session recall. <a href="https://github.com/plastic-labs/honcho">Honcho</a> dialectic user modeling. Compatible with the <a href="https://agentskills.io">agentskills.io</a> open standard.</td></tr>
<tr><td><b>Scheduled automations</b></td><td>Built-in cron scheduler with delivery to any platform. Daily reports, nightly backups, weekly audits — all in natural language, running unattended.</td></tr>
<tr><td><b>Delegates and parallelizes</b></td><td>Spawn isolated subagents for parallel workstreams. Write Python scripts that call tools via RPC, collapsing multi-step pipelines into zero-context-cost turns.</td></tr>
<tr><td><b>Real sandboxing</b></td><td>Six terminal backends — local, Docker, SSH, Singularity, Modal, and Daytona — with persistent workspaces and container security hardening.</td></tr>
<tr><td><b>Runs anywhere, not just your laptop</b></td><td>Six terminal backends — local, Docker, SSH, Daytona, Singularity, and Modal. Daytona and Modal offer serverless persistence — your agent's environment hibernates when idle and wakes on demand, costing nearly nothing between sessions. Run it on a $5 VPS or a GPU cluster.</td></tr>
<tr><td><b>Research-ready</b></td><td>Batch trajectory generation, Atropos RL environments, trajectory compression for training the next generation of tool-calling models.</td></tr>
