docs: comprehensive doc audit — sync all docs to current state

- MASTER.md: tool count 40→47, add proactive notifications + spawn_agent rows, date bump
- ROADMAP.md: mark local orchestrator/web push/proactive notifs/spawn_agent/web_read/session_read as done, date bump
- ARCH__CHANNELS.md: rewrite notification channel config section — all 4 channels, all triggers, on-demand endpoints
- ARCH__SYSTEM.md: update tools/ module list to include files, agents
- README.md: update LLM backends in architecture diagram, add browser push to channels table
- CLAUDE.md: add doc update checklist to Documentation Philosophy section

+`notification_channel` in `channels.json` sets the default outbound channel for all proactive messages (distill alerts, cron jobs, reminder checks):
 
 ```json
 {
-  "notification_channel": "nextcloud",
-  ...
+  "notification_channel": "web_push",
+  "notification_email": "user@example.com",
+  "nextcloud": { "notification_room": "<token>" },

 }
 ```
 
-If absent, defaults to `nextcloud` if configured. Currently only NC Talk is supported for outbound; Google Chat outbound is a future item.
+Supported channels: `web_push` (browser push via VAPID), `email`, `nextcloud` (NC Talk), `google_chat`. Configured via **Settings → Notifications** (`/settings/notifications`).
+
+**Proactive notification triggers:**
+- **Daily 09:00** — `_run_reminder_check()` in `scheduler.py`: reads due/overdue reminders per persona, fires `notify()` with a formatted summary
+- **Memory distillation** — `_run_mid()` / `_run_long()` call `notify()` on completion
+- **Cron jobs** — `message` / `brief` job types call `notify()` directly
+- **On-demand** — `POST /api/push/test` (test notification) and `POST /api/push/reminders/check` (immediate reminder check)
