Introduce persistent generationStatus to work summaries (puzzle & match3d) and propagate generation recovery rules across docs and frontend/backends so "generating" is restored from server-side work summary rather than ephemeral front-end notices. Update API server image/asset handling (improve match3d material sheet green/alpha decontamination and promote generatedItemAssets background fields) and add runtime improvements: alpha-based hotspot hit-testing, tray insertion/three-match animation behavior, and session re-read on client-side VectorEngine timeouts/lock-screen interruptions. Many docs, tests and related frontend modules updated/added to reflect these contract and behavior changes.
Delete a large set of outdated documentation (many files under docs/ and .hermes/plans/, including audits, design, prd, technical, planning, assets, and todos). Update and consolidate .hermes content: refresh shared-memory pages (decision-log, development-workflow, document-map, pitfalls, project-overview, team-conventions) and several skills/references under .hermes/skills. Also modify AGENTS.md, README.md, UI_CODING_STANDARD.md, docs/README.md and .encoding-check-ignore. Purpose: clean up stale planning/audit material and keep current hermes documentation and related top-level docs in sync.
