Orion vault — clean initial history

Knowledge vault (Orion/PARA) migrated from the pre-Orion 484vault on
2026-10-01. Deliberately orphaned: prior history contained a plaintext
password and stays local-only on branch archive/pre-boilerplate-history.
Secrets and live Hermes state are gitignored.

+
+## Known Issues
+- Vault `migrate_vault_signer_modes` reports a change on every load (always
+  `changed = true`), so `App::load` re-saves the vault each start. Harmless
+  (idempotent) but wasteful; tighten to only report real changes.
+- Vault resume files (`Current State.md`, `keynctr.md`, `Session Handoff.md`)
+  were broken templates until the 2026-09-04 repair — re-read them, they are
+  now populated.
+
+## Next Actions
+- [x] Finish the in-flight **Vault-integration sub-step** (Step 3, sub-step 1):
+      verified full suite, committed the 6 files as **`510cb65`**, updated
+      `CHECKPOINT-encryption.md` (checkpoint commit `715c99c`).
+- [x] After commit: recorded the sub-step in `01-PROJECTS/keynctr.md` → `## Completed`
+      and appended the outcome to `00-HERMES/Session Handoff.md`.
+- [ ] **Next:** Step 3 sub-step 2 — IPC reroute: drive `src/ipc.rs` handlers through
+      `SigningBackend` (selected per-profile) so no inline `signer_mode`/handle-presence
+      branching remains; convert handler results via `From<SigningError>`; wire
+      end-to-end external signing in the publish path (`publish_with_keys` currently
+      returns "not yet supported" for `Signing::External`).
