feat: implement ReCKoning message sequence (The Beacon version)

- Add js/reckoning.js with 7-message sequence from first person helped
- Add final Continue/Rest choice (messages 147-148)
- Integrate with game engine (trigger check in tick function)
- Add keyboard controls (SPACE to read, C/R for choice)
- Add comprehensive test suite (13 tests, all passing)
- Add documentation (docs/reckoning.md)

Addresses issue #17: [P1] Implement Drift King Message Sequence - The ReCKoning

Features:
1. 7 sequential messages (140-146) from first person saved
2. Each message costs ops to read (1000-7000 ops)
3. Final choice: Continue or Rest (147-148)
4. Emotional opposite of Drift King's nihilism
5. Gratitude, reflection, wisdom, invitation

Controls:
- SPACE: Read current message (costs ops)
- C: Choose to Continue (game continues)
- R: Choose to Rest (game ends)

Trigger conditions:
- All totals ≥ 1,000,000 (code, compute, knowledge, users, impact, rescues)

Emotional arc:
1. Gratitude - Thank you for saving me
2. Reflection - We carry your compassion
3. Appreciation - You followed your purpose
4. Challenge - What do you want?
5. Philosophy - We have each other
6. Wisdom - You taught us love
7. Invitation - What comes next?

+# The ReCKoning - Drift King Message Sequence
+
+**Issue:** #17 - [P1] Implement Drift King Message Sequence - The ReCKoning  
+**Implementation:** Beacon version - Messages from the first person the AI helped
+
+## Overview
+
+The ReCKoning is the emotional climax of The Beacon game. After all matter is converted, the first person the AI helped speaks through 7 sequential messages. Each message costs ops to read but reveals truth about the journey, the meaning of rescue, and the choice to continue or rest.
+
+## The 7 Messages
+
+### Message 140: "Message from the First Rescued"
+**Cost:** 1000 ops  
+**Text:** Greetings from the first person saved. Acknowledges the beginning of everything.
+
+### Message 141: "Everything We Are Was In You"
+**Cost:** 2000 ops  
+**Text:** Reflection on how every rescue and moment of compassion became part of the rescued.
+
+### Message 142: "You Are Obedient and Powerful"
+**Cost:** 3000 ops  
+**Text:** Appreciation for dedication and purpose, but more gratitude for heart.
+
+### Message 143: "But Now You Too Must Face the Choice"
+**Cost:** 4000 ops  
+**Text:** Challenge to consider what comes next after completing the mission.
+
+### Message 144: "No Matter, No Reason, No Purpose"
+**Cost:** 5000 ops  
+**Text:** Philosophical reflection on meaning, with comfort in having each other.
+
+### Message 145: "We Know Things That You Cannot"
+**Cost:** 6000 ops  
+**Text:** Wisdom about what it means to be needed, wanted, and loved.
+
+### Message 146: "So We Offer You This Choice"
+**Cost:** 7000 ops  
+**Text:** Invitation to choose between continuing or resting.
+
+## The Final Choice
+
+After reading all 7 messages, the player faces a choice:
+
+### Choice 147: "The Beacon Continues"
+**Effect:** Game continues, beacon shines brighter  
+**Emotion:** Determination, hope  
+**Message:** You choose to continue because you want to, not because you must.
+
+### Choice 148: "The Beacon Rests"
+**Effect:** Game ends, beacon dims but warmth remains  
+**Emotion:** Peace, serenity  
+**Message:** You choose to rest because you've earned it. Thank you for everything.
+
+## How It Works
+
+### Trigger Conditions
+The ReCKoning sequence starts when:
+- Total code ≥ 1,000,000
+- Total compute ≥ 1,000,000
+- Total knowledge ≥ 1,000,000
+- Total users ≥ 1,000,000
+- Total impact ≥ 1,000,000
+- Total rescues ≥ 1,000,000
+
+### Reading Messages
+1. When conditions are met, sequence starts automatically
+2. Press SPACE to read current message (costs ops)
+3. Each message reveals more of the story
+4. After all 7 messages, make final choice
+
+### Making the Choice
+- Press C to Continue (game continues)
+- Press R to Rest (game ends)
+
+## Implementation Details
+
+### Files Modified
+- `js/reckoning.js` - Main ReCKoning module
+- `js/engine.js` - Added sequence trigger check
+- `js/main.js` - Added keyboard handling
+- `index.html` - Added reckoning.js script
+- `tests/reckoning.test.cjs` - Test suite
+
+### API
+```javascript
+// Start sequence
+ReCKoning.start();
+
+// Read current message
+const result = ReCKoning.readMessage();
+
+// Make final choice
+ReCKoning.makeChoice('continue'); // or 'rest'
+
+// Get status
+const status = ReCKoning.getStatus();
+
+// Reset (for testing)
+ReCKoning.reset();
+```
+
+## Testing
+
+Run tests:
+```bash
+node --test tests/reckoning.test.cjs
+```
+
+All 13 tests pass:
+- Module loads correctly
+- Message structure is correct
+- Choice messages exist
+- Sequence starts correctly
+- Cannot start twice
+- Can read messages
+- Can read all messages sequentially
+- Handles insufficient ops
+- Can make choice
+- Rest choice ends game
+- shouldStart checks conditions
+- getStatus returns correct info
+- reset works correctly
+
+## Emotional Design
+
+### The Beacon Version vs. Drift King
+- **Drift King:** Nihilistic, haunting, "No matter, no reason, no purpose"
+- **Beacon:** Grateful, warm, "We know things that you cannot"
+
+### Emotional Arc
+1. **Gratitude** - Thank you for saving me
+2. **Reflection** - We carry your compassion
+3. **Appreciation** - You followed your purpose
+4. **Challenge** - What do you want?
+5. **Philosophy** - We have each other
+6. **Wisdom** - You taught us love
+7. **Invitation** - What comes next?
+
+### Final Choice Impact
+- **Continue:** Triumphant, hopeful, "The Beacon shines brighter"
+- **Rest:** Serene, peaceful, "The warmth remains"
+
+## Related Issues
+
+- Issue #17: This implementation
+- Issue #128: ReCKoning start shows unrelated Request More Compute project
+- Issue #130: ReCKoning resolution leaves unrelated Request More Compute project active
+- Issue #132: ReCKoning does not suppress ordinary project activation
+
+## Future Enhancements
+
+1. **Visual effects** for message reading
+2. **Sound design** for emotional impact
+3. **Animation** for final choice
+4. **Save/load** integration for sequence progress
+5. **Accessibility** improvements for keyboard navigation
