chore(todo): close cross-machine memory sync via dedicated repo

I closed the memory-sync task. Memory now lives in a dedicated private claude-memory.git on cjennings.net, with each project's memory dir symlinked into a local clone so new memory lands in the working tree and a push syncs it. I settled on that over stow/dotfiles and over keeping it in rulesets, since rulesets sits on every session's startup-pull path and memory churn would dirty it. The task's dated entries carry the decision and the shipped details.

-*** VERIFY Approve stow-based sync of ~/.claude/projects via the dotfiles repo
-Held 2026-05-22: dotfiles are being split out of archsetup into their own repository, so the stow target is in flux. Revisit the stow approach (and the destination path) once that split settles — the target is the new dotfiles repo, not =archsetup/dotfiles/common/=.
+*** 2026-05-23 Sat @ 16:12:48 -0500 Decided: dedicated private repo, not stow
+Worked through dotfiles → rulesets → dedicated repo. Dropped stow/dotfiles (machine config, wrong cadence) and rulesets (it's pulled first in every session, so memory edits would dirty its tree and skip the startup =git pull --ff-only=). Chose a dedicated private repo on cjennings.net: storage is unified there while recall stays per-project (the encoded-cwd subdirs), since pooling recall would hurt relevance and risk work-private facts surfacing in personal-project artifacts.

+*** 2026-05-23 Sat @ 16:12:48 -0500 Shipped: claude-memory.git + folded symlinks
+Created bare =git@cjennings.net:claude-memory.git=, cloned to [[file:/home/cjennings/.claude-memory/][~/.claude-memory]], moved all 7 per-project =memory/= dirs in (54 files; work has 40) and replaced each live =~/.claude/projects/<enc>/memory= with a folded dir-symlink so new memory lands in the clone and a push syncs it. Added =link-claude-memory.sh= (idempotent — recreates the symlinks on a new machine after clone) + README. Private repo, never GitHub (carries work/DeepSat memory). Initial import pushed (=f496370=).
