59,740; repo total 105,704 records. Deterministic (byte-identical rerun,
verified on Title 42's 8,356 sections); make check green. make

README/roadmap/data-model updated for the city nodes: entity counts,
the places tree layout, and the roadmap pivot from 'mint local bodies'
to 'fill the municipal skeleton.'

The README described intent; the repo is now real. Rewrote it to reflect
what actually exists — 17,506 validated files across four entity types,
the deterministic pipeline, the commands — and added the /docs tree:
government-as-code.md the philosophy: git primitives -> government
data-model.md entity types, IDs, file format, the tree, determinism
sources.md where every fact comes from, and how current
roadmap.md done / next / later, honest about what isn't built
contributing.md the disciplines, and how to add a source
Plus data/sources/sources.yaml — the machine-readable source registry.
Every count, path, and source claim is grounded in the current tree, not
the aspirational brief. Internal links verified; validation still clean.
