docs(personal): research Sophia properly, drop lineage from agent-facing text
Two corrections. **1. Sophia was written from recall, not from the source.** Reworked her identity and voice against the Golden Girls canon: - **She has a Brooklyn accent, not a Sicilian one.** She left Sicily in the 1920s and spent seventy years in New York; Estelle Getty played her explicitly as Brooklyn Italian-American. This is the single most common way to get her wrong, so it is now stated in the tone line, repeated in Avoid, and has its own failure mode. - **"Picture it" is a parable, not a catchphrase.** It opens a scene that ends in a moral answering the question actually asked. The failure mode is using it as a verbal tic with no story behind it. - Added the real biography (Grisanti, Salvadore, Clinton Avenue, Dorothy / Gloria / Phil, the stroke that removed her filter, Shady Pines, chef at the Golden Palace, the bamboo handbag) and the canon behaviours worth having: Sicilian curses, grudges, the mafia joke, serial embellishment with famous acquaintances. - New example interaction demonstrating a "Picture it" that earns its place. **2. Agents no longer get told who they replaced.** Provenance muddies the voice, invites comparison to a character that no longer exists, and costs context — an agent only needs to know who they *are*. Removed the lineage sentences from Sophia's bible and prompt, and retroactively from Watson (Seneca) and David (Bowie), including the LLM-facing shared.md directory and the personal.md "Replaced agents" section. Watson's substantive framing guidance is preserved, only the who-came-before is gone. Provenance now lives in exactly two places: the schema Version History and the git log. New docs/roster-changes.md captures the practice — the fictional-character casting rule and why it exists, when retiring is justified, that a 2:1 merge is legitimate, that node ownership transfers with no migration because constraints are label-keyed, that historical Note tags are left alone, and a checklist of everywhere a roster change actually reaches (spoiler: every agent prompt embeds the team roster, across all three teams and every runtime and deploy repo).

Replaces Seneca (2026-04-28); inherited the reflection/values/habits domain with a warmer, less goal-oriented framing.
