vh ad2b0e97aa docs/runbooks/nh3-prune-ritual: write up the quarterly NH3 prune ceremony
New runbook captures the three-phase process:

  Phase 1 — Drop --append-only via DSM Container Manager web UI
  Phase 2 — sudo resticprofile forget --prune --verbose on each of
            nh3-docker, nh3-dev, irv-ml1 (interactive sudo per host)
  Phase 3 — Restore --append-only via DSM

Why each phase looks the way it does, what to expect (largely no-op
runs for the first 6 months while no snapshots have aged out of the
keep window), how to verify each phase non-destructively (curl 401
on the rest-server root proves the container's up + serving), what
to do if Phase 2 fails with `repository is configured as append-only`
(skipped Phase 1 / DSM didn't apply), and the path to future
automation (find docker bin path on DSM, NOPASSWD-lock syncuser to
the specific recreate command).

Includes a "last run history" table seeded with today's first
post-pipeline run (no-op, irv-ml1 only had 3 snapshots due to the
04-25→27 CUDA stall).

Cross-referenced from docs/README.md (runbook tree), docs/
orientation.md (where-to-look table), and STATUS.md item 9 (which
now points at the runbook + records the next-round date 2026-07-27).

Navigation map for the documentation tree. New session? Read orientation.md first — it's the narrative overview of the fleet, backup architecture, governing principles, and gotchas, and it points at everything else.

What goes where

  • runbooks/ — step-by-step ops procedures. Anything you'd reach for during an incident or while standing up new infrastructure. Examples: disaster recovery (blast-radius tiers + restoration steps), PBS deployment (9-phase rollout). New runbook → new file here.
  • pfi/ — PFI-specific reference material that's too narrow for the top-level CLAUDE.md but doesn't change incident response. AI model inventory, recommended inference settings, Matrix bridge config, Proxmox VM map. New stable reference → new file here.
  • Top-level (docs/orientation.md, docs/README.md) — narrative guides about the workspace itself, not about specific infra.

Cross-references

  • Fleet topology + servers table: top-level CLAUDE.md.
  • Open work + recent milestones: top-level STATUS.md.
  • Durable cross-session facts: ~/.claude/projects/-home-lkraven-development-eshpfi-management/memory/.

Conventions

  • Markdown, GitHub-flavored. CommonMark renders fine in most viewers.
  • File names are lowercase-kebab-case, descriptive. No dates in filenames — git history covers that.
  • One topic per file. If a file grows past ~500 lines, look for a natural split before adding more.
  • No checked-in binaries or checksums. Build/release artifacts belong in a build pipeline or tools/, not docs/.
