build: add deploy-webinstall script and document cache-only architecture

- _scripts/deploy-webinstall: rsync-based deploy to beta.webi.sh and
  next.webi.sh that excludes _cache, restarts the webinstall service via
  serviceman (sourcing ~/.config/envman/PATH.env so serviceman is on
  PATH for non-interactive ssh). Uses an end-of-line anchored process
  match so only the node worker is touched, never its supervisor.
- AGENTS.md: document the cache-only Node server (two paths, canonical
  os/arch/libc/ext vocabulary), add a domains table for prod/beta/next,
  remove stale normalize.js references.
- .gitignore: ignore agent session files (LOCAL.md, agents/, etc) and
  local test fixtures (testdata/).

 Webi installs dev tools to `~/.local/` without sudo. Each installer is a small
 package of 3-4 files. This guide tells you how to create and modify them.

+- **webi.sh** — POSIX shell installer: `curl https://webi.sh/node | sh`
+- **webi.ms** — PowerShell installer: `curl.exe https://webi.ms/node | powershell`
+- **webinstall.dev** — canonical domain, serves both shell scripts and the
+  browser-facing cheat sheet pages
+
+The domain controls the default script format. You can force the same behavior
+on any domain via User-Agent:
+- `curl -A "MS" ...` — triggers PowerShell output (same as webi.ms)
+- `curl ...` (default UA) — triggers POSIX shell output (same as webi.sh)
+- `curl -A "$(uname -srm)" ...` — once the API is activated, the full
+  `uname -srm` string (e.g. `Linux 6.1.0 x86_64`) guides OS/arch selection

-### Common release transformations
+Cache is generated by the Go daemon (`webicached`) and stored flat in
+`~/.cache/webi/legacy/{pkg}.json` (resolved via `Os.homedir()` in the Node
+readers — no `_cache` symlink, no month subdirectory). Each file contains:
+- Top-level summary arrays: `oses`, `arches`, `libcs`, `formats`
+- `releases` array with pre-classified fields: `os`, `arch`, `libc`, `ext`,
+  `version`, `channel`, `download`
+- `download` template string
 
-**Strip version prefix** (monorepo or tool-prefixed tags):
+### Canonical vocabulary (cache and API)
 
-```js
-// e.g. "tools/monorel/v0.6.5" → "v0.6.5"
-rel.version = rel.version.replace(/^tools\/monorel\//, '');
+**OS**: `macos` (not darwin), `linux`, `windows`, `freebsd`, etc.
+**Arch**: `amd64` (not x86_64), `arm64` (not aarch64), `armv7l` (not armv7)
+**Libc**: `none` (never empty), `gnu`, `musl`, `msvc`
+**Ext**: `tar.gz`, `zip`, `exe` (no leading dot; `exe` for bare binaries)
 
-// e.g. "cli-v1.2.3" → "v1.2.3"
-rel.version = rel.version.replace(/^cli-/, '');
-```
+## releases.js (legacy — being phased out)
 
-**Filter releases** (monorepo with multiple tools, or unwanted assets):
+The `{pkg}/releases.js` files previously fetched upstream release metadata.
+These are being replaced by the Go cache daemon. Existing files are kept as
+documentation of release sources but are no longer called by the server.
 
-```js
-all.releases = all.releases.filter(function (rel) {
-  // Keep only releases for this tool
-  return rel.version.startsWith('tools/monorel/');
-});
-```
-
-Apply transformations inside `Releases.latest`, before returning `all`.

-tagline: |
-  basecamp: CLI for Basecamp 3 — manage projects, todos, messages, cards, and more from the terminal.
----
-
-To update or switch versions, run `webi basecamp-cli@stable` (or `@v0.7`,
-`@beta`, etc).
-
-### Files
-
-These are the files / directories that are created and/or modified with this
-install:
-
-```text
-~/.config/envman/PATH.env
-~/.local/bin/basecamp
-~/.local/opt/basecamp-cli-VERSION/bin/basecamp
-~/.local/opt/basecamp-cli-VERSION/completions/
-```
-
-## Cheat Sheet
-
-> `basecamp` is the official CLI for Basecamp 3. It provides full API coverage
-> for projects, todos, messages, cards, schedule, files, and more — all from the
-> command line.
-
-### How to authenticate
-
-```sh
-basecamp auth login
-```
-
-For headless environments (CI, remote servers):
-
-```sh
-basecamp auth login --device-code
-```
-
-Check auth status:
-
-```sh
-basecamp auth status
-```
-
-### How to list projects and todos
-
-```sh
-basecamp projects list --md
-
-basecamp todos list --assignee me --in PROJECT_ID --md
-```
-
-Cross-project view of your assigned work:
-
-```sh
-basecamp assignments --md
-```
-
-### How to create and complete todos
-
-```sh
-basecamp todo "Write release notes" --in PROJECT_ID --list TODOLIST_ID --assignee me --due tomorrow
-
-basecamp done TODO_ID
-```
-
-### How to post a message or comment
-
-```sh
-basecamp message "Sprint Update" "Shipped v2.1 to production." --in PROJECT_ID
-
-basecamp comment RECORDING_ID "Looks good." --in PROJECT_ID
-```
-
-### How to move cards through a workflow
-
-```sh
-basecamp cards columns --in PROJECT_ID --md
-
-basecamp cards move CARD_ID --to COLUMN_ID --in PROJECT_ID
-```
-
-### How to set up per-project defaults
-
-Create `.basecamp/config.json` in your repo (commit it):
-
-```json
-{
-  "project_id": "12345",
-  "todolist_id": "67890"
-}
-```
-
-Then trust it once:
-
-```sh
-basecamp config trust
-```
-
-After that, you can omit `--in` for most commands in that repo.
-
-### Shell completions
-
-Completions for bash, fish, and zsh ship with the installer. Find them at:
-
-```text
-~/.local/opt/basecamp-cli-VERSION/completions/
-```
-
-Bash:
-
-```sh
-echo "source ~/.local/opt/basecamp-cli-VERSION/completions/basecamp.bash" >> ~/.bashrc
-```
-
-Fish:
-
-```sh
-ln -s ~/.local/opt/basecamp-cli-VERSION/completions/basecamp.fish ~/.config/fish/completions/
-```
-
-Zsh:
-
-```sh
-echo "fpath+=( ~/.local/opt/basecamp-cli-VERSION/completions )" >> ~/.zshrc
-```

-homepage: https://github.com/aristocratos/btop
-tagline: |
-  btop: a beautiful, interactive resource monitor
-description: |
-  btop++ is a fast, feature-rich terminal resource monitor written in C++.
-  It shows real-time usage and stats for CPU, memory, disks, network, and
-  processes — with full mouse support, customizable themes, and an
-  easy-to-use menu system. The spiritual successor to bashtop and bpytop.
----
-
-To update or switch versions, run `webi btop@stable` (or `@v1.4`, `@beta`, etc).
-
-### Files
-
-These are the files / directories that are created and/or modified with this
-install:
-
-```
-~/.config/envman/PATH.env
-~/.local/bin/btop
-~/.local/opt/btop/
-~/.local/opt/btop-<VERSION>/
-```
-
-## Cheat Sheet
-
-![](https://static.linuxblog.io/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/btop.png)
-
-> btop gives you a gorgeous, interactive view of what your system is doing —
-> CPU cores, RAM, swap, disk I/O, network throughput, and a filterable process
-> list — all in one terminal window.
-
-### Launch btop
-
-```sh
-btop
-```
-
-### Navigation
-
-| Key            | Action                              |
-| -------------- | ----------------------------------- |
-| `Arrow keys`   | Move selection in process list      |
-| `Enter`        | Show detailed stats for process     |
-| `F`            | Filter / search processes           |
-| `K`            | Send signal (kill, SIGTERM, etc.)   |
-| `R`            | Renice (change process priority)    |
-| `T`            | Toggle tree / flat process view     |
-| `M`            | Change sort field                   |
-| `ESC`          | Open settings menu                  |
-| `Q`            | Quit                                |
-
-Mouse support is fully enabled by default — scroll and click anywhere in the UI.
-
-### Change the color theme
-
-Press `ESC` to open the menu, navigate to **Options → Color theme**, and pick
-from the built-in themes (Default, TTY, Dracula, Gruvbox, and more).
-
-Custom themes can be placed in:
-
-```
-~/.config/btop/themes/
-```
-
-### Adjust update interval
-
-In the Options menu, set **Update interval** (in milliseconds). The default is
-`2000` (2 seconds). Lower values give a more live feel; higher values reduce CPU
-overhead from btop itself.
-
-### Config file location
-
-btop's settings are saved automatically at:
-
-```
-~/.config/btop/btop.conf
-```
-
-You can edit this file directly to set options like `update_ms`, `color_theme`,
-`proc_sorting`, or `net_iface`.
-
-### Run btop with a specific network interface shown
-
-```sh
-btop --utf-foce      # force UTF-8 box drawing
-btop --debug         # verbose debug output to btop.log
-```
-
-Network interface selection is done interactively inside btop via the network
-panel — press `B` / `N` to cycle interfaces.
-
-### GPU monitoring (Linux x86\_64)
-
-On Linux, btop supports Nvidia, AMD, and Intel GPUs out of the box provided the
-correct drivers are installed. If wattage or GPU stats are missing, you may need
-to grant extended capabilities:
-
-```sh
-# Run once after install (requires sudo)
-sudo setcap cap_perfmon,cap_sys_ptrace+ep ~/.local/bin/btop
-```
-
