Alexander Whitestone b2f4bd0448 fix: Remove duplicate content blocks from README.md and POLICY.md (#1338)
This commit fixes issue #1338 by removing duplicate content blocks that
were appearing 3-4 times on the page.

Changes:
1. README.md:
   - Removed duplicate "Branch Protection & Review Policy" section (lines 121-134)
   - Removed duplicate "Running Locally" section (lines 149-167)
   - Kept the detailed "Branch Protection & Review Policy" section at the top
   - Kept the first "Running Locally" section with all content

2. POLICY.md:
   - Consolidated duplicate content into single cohesive policy
   - Merged two "Branch Protection Rules" sections
   - Merged two "Default Reviewer" sections
   - Merged two "Acceptance Criteria" sections
   - Added "Enforcement" and "Notes" sections from second half

The duplicate content was likely caused by a bad merge or template duplication.
This cleanup ensures each section appears only once while preserving all content.

Closes #1338

# Branch Protection & Review Policy
## 🛡️ Enforced Branch Protection Rules
All repositories must apply the following branch protection rules to the `main` branch:
| Rule | Setting | Rationale |
|------|---------|-----------|
| Require PR for merge | ✅ Required | Prevent direct pushes to `main` |
| Required approvals | ✅ 1 approval | Ensure at least one reviewer approve before merge |
| Dismiss stale approvals | ✅ Auto-dismiss | Require re-approval after new commits |
| Require CI to pass | ✅ Where CI exist | Prevent merging of failing builds |
| Block force push | ✅ Enabled | Protect commit history |
| Block branch deletion | ✅ Enabled | Prevent accidental deletion of `main` |
> ⚠️ Note: CI enforcement is optional for repositories where CI is not yet configured.
---
### 👤 Default Reviewer Assignment
All repositories must define default reviewers using CODEOWNERS-style configuration:
- `@perplexity` is the **default reviewer** for all repositories.
- `@Timmy` is a **required reviewer** for `hermes-agent`.
- Repository-specific owners may be added for specialized areas.
---
### 📋 Affected Repositories
| Repository | Status | Notes |
|-------------|--------|-------|
| `hermes-agent` | ✅ Protected | CI is active |
| `the-nexus` | ✅ Protected | CI is pending |
| `timmy-home` | ✅ Protected | No CI |
| `timmy-config` | ✅ Protected | Limited CI |
---
### ✅ Acceptance Criteria
- [ ] Branch protection enabled on `hermes-agent` main
- [ ] Branch protection enabled on `the-nexus` main
- [ ] Branch protection enabled on `timmy-home` main
- [ ] Branch protection enabled on `timmy-config` main
- [ ] `@perplexity` set as default reviewer org-wide
- [ ] Policy documented in this file
---
### 🚧 Enforcement
- All repositories must have these rules applied in the Gitea UI under **Settings > Branches > Branch Protection**.
- CI must be configured and enforced for repositories with CI pipelines.
- Reviewers assignments must be set via CODEOWNERS or manually in the UI.
---
### 🧠 Notes
- For repositories without CI, the "Require CI to Pass" rule is optional.
- This policy is versioned and must be updated as needed.
