Cut from 765 to 221 lines. The module-by-module layout belongs in ARCHITECTURE.md, the theorem lists in the generated catalog, and open work in GitHub issues; the README now points to those. Drop the Lean 4.34 port notes and the history-style roadmap and bibliography. All development, CI, documentation, and cleanliness rules are kept, grouped as short lists.

The README had grown to 765 lines with overlapping sections: a module-by-module layout, port notes, a long theorem inventory, and a history-style roadmap. This rewrite brings it to 221 lines.
Structure: intro and catalog link → Build → Layout → Main concepts → Selected results → Contributing (proof status, code rules, checks, CI/PRs, documentation, cleanliness) → License.
Moved out, not lost
ARCHITECTURE.md, which already covers it.mainand on the open wrapper-cleanup branches Hurwitz/Hadamard cluster: state proved results directly, drop Statement wrappers #1093, Liu: state x-subtraction, quartic boundary and root-order lemmas directly (part 2) #1100, CommonInterleaver: state the Chudnovsky–Seymour pair chain directly (part 2) #1101 and Remove Statement-wrapper scaffolding (GeneralizedSnakePosets) #1099.Dropped: the Lean 4.34 port notes (
List.interleaveRight,IsTotallyNonneg.smul), the stale "useful focused checks" list, and the bibliography. Each catalog page carries its own references.Kept verbatim in substance: every development and CI rule. These cover the
sorry/axiom/Statementpolicy, the forbiddenset_option/try/all_goals/any_goals/simp +decide,liaoveromegawithALLOWED_OMEGA, warnings as errors, no absolute paths, CI-first drafts, merge requirements, catalog rules, and cleanliness.AGENTS.mdgives the README precedence, so none of these were weakened.Documentation only. No script or workflow reads
