Signalkarpathy-wiki-read

Read protocol for the main agent. Load on demand when answering ANY user question (per Iron Rule 4 in `using-karpathy-wiki/SKILL.md`). Defines the deterministic 6-step orientation ladder for finding wiki coverage of a question, when to inline-read vs spawn an Explore subagent vs fall through to web search, and the cite contract every wiki-grounded answer must satisfy.
