Trevin Chow 7c59a427e3 feat(concepts): introduce CONCEPTS.md as shared vocabulary substrate
Adds a domain-vocabulary artifact maintained as a side effect of compounding.
CONCEPTS.md is the substrate that learnings cite — entities, named processes,
and status concepts with project-specific precise meaning. Lazy creation,
opportunistic AGENTS.md discoverability, no user prompts.

Ownership model:
- ce-compound and ce-compound-refresh create and maintain the file. Both also
  surface CONCEPTS.md to AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md on first creation via the existing
  Discoverability Check, so future agents discover the file.
- ce-brainstorm and ce-plan are contributors only — they add to or refine
  CONCEPTS.md when terms surface, but skip writes entirely when the file
  doesn't exist. Avoids speculative bootstrapping from pre-implementation work.
- ce-learnings-researcher reads CONCEPTS.md as grounding before keyword
  extraction so result distillation uses canonical terminology.

ce-compound and ce-compound-refresh both bundle a concepts-vocabulary.md
reference with inclusion criteria, format rules, and an illustrative example.
ce-brainstorm and ce-plan intentionally do not — they learn format from the
existing file's contents. Plugin AGENTS.md gains a note that the two reference
copies must stay in sync.
