Add SOUL/Oath panel to main interaction loop (issue #709)

- Added SOUL button to HUD top-right bar next to Atlas
- Added SOUL quick action in chat panel
- Added SOUL overlay with Identity, Oath, Conscience, and Sacred Trust sections
- Link to canonical SOUL.md on timmy-home
- CSS styles matching existing Nexus design system
- JS wiring for toggle/close

Also fixed: cleaned up merge conflict markers, removed duplicated
branch-policy/mem-palace/reviewers sections from footer

 - rescue good work from legacy Matrix
 - rebuild inside `the-nexus`
 - keep telemetry and durable truth flowing through the Hermes harness
-- keep OpenClaw as a sidecar, not the authority

-| **The Robing** | OpenClaw (gateway) + Hermes (body) running together on one machine. |
+| **The Robing** | ~~DEPRECATED~~ — Hermes handles all layers directly. No external gateway. |
 | **Robed** | Gateway + Hermes running = fully operational wizard. |
 | **Unrobed** | No gateway + Hermes = capable but invisible. |
 | **Lobster** | Gateway + no Hermes = reachable but empty. **The FAILURE state.** |
@@ -117,14 +117,14 @@
 **Why it works:** Naturally models the wizard hierarchy. Queries like "who can do X?" and "what blocks task Y?" resolve instantly.
 **Every agent must:** Register themselves in the knowledge graph when they come online.
 
-### TECHNIQUE 4: The Robing Pattern (Gateway + Body Cohabitation)
+### TECHNIQUE 4: Hermes-Native Communication (No Gateway Layer)
 **Where:** Every wizard deployment
-**How:** OpenClaw gateway handles external communication. Hermes body handles reasoning. Both on same machine via localhost. Four states: Robed, Unrobed, Lobster, Dead.
-**Why it works:** Separation of concerns. Gateway can restart without losing agent state.
-**Every agent must:** Know their own state. A Lobster is a failure. Report it.
+**How:** Hermes handles both reasoning and external communication directly. No intermediary gateway. Two states: Online (Hermes running) or Dead (nothing running).
+**Why it works:** Single process. No split-brain failure modes. No Lobster state possible.
+**Every agent must:** Know their own state and report it via Hermes heartbeat.
 
 ### TECHNIQUE 5: Cron-Driven Autonomous Work Dispatch
-**Where:** openclaw-work.sh, task-monitor.sh, progress-report.sh
+**Where:** hermes-work.sh, task-monitor.sh, progress-report.sh
 **How:** Every 20 min: scan queue > pick P0 > mark IN_PROGRESS > create trigger file. Every 10 min: check completion. Every 30 min: progress report to father-messages/.
 **Why it works:** No human needed for steady-state. Self-healing. Self-reporting.
 **Every agent must:** Have a work queue. Have a cron schedule. Report progress.

+        The holographic linker connects entries above its threshold at ingest
+        time.  ``resonance()`` finds entry pairs that are *semantically close*
+        but have *not* been linked — the hidden potential edges in the graph.
+        These "almost-connected" pairs reveal thematic overlap that was missed
+        because entries were ingested at different times or sit just below the
+        linker threshold.
+
+        Args:
+            threshold: Minimum similarity score to surface a pair (default 0.3).
+                       Pairs already linked are excluded regardless of score.
+            limit: Maximum number of pairs to return (default 20).
+            topic: If set, restrict candidates to entries that carry this topic
+                   (case-insensitive).  Both entries in a pair must match.
+
+        Returns:
+            List of dicts, sorted by ``score`` descending::
+
+                {
