description: The repository's orientation lens — one intent-discerning surface for anyone who wants to understand this repo, get started, or get their bearings. Covers "explain this repo", "tell me about this", "what is this", "give me an overview", "executive summary", "how does X work", "I want to understand the search architecture", "onboard me", "where do I start", "give me a tour", "set me up", and "help me contribute". Discerns the person's interest, angle, and the delivery mode that fits — a pinpoint specific answer, a synthesised area overview, or a paced guided tour — through at most a few friendly conversational questions (never a menu), then delivers, reading all content live from the canonical docs. Machine setup is a distinct, go-ahead-gated capability the tour or an overview can lead into. Use whenever someone is new to the repository or asks to be told about, oriented to, or set up with it.
