A `git add -A` during the v4.4.0 bump accidentally tracked the announcement
art (announce/changelog/ponytail-*.gif) in the repo root. Untrack them and
gitignore the pattern; they stay on disk for posting but out of the repo.
Swap em dashes for commas/colons/periods in the README, skills, AGENTS.md and
its five rule copies, examples, command files, and benchmark README. Rule
copies stay in sync (same edit applied to all) and the invariant guard passes.
Left untouched on purpose: the vendored caveman SKILL.md (verbatim third-party
text), the dated benchmark writeups in results/ (historical records), and
.js code comments.

Commit a promptfoo harness (config + arm prompts + LOC metric + vendored
caveman SKILL) so anyone can re-run the comparison: no-skill vs caveman vs
ponytail, across Haiku / Sonnet / Opus, 10 runs per cell, median reported.
Replace the old unreproducible 6-task chart with assets/benchmark-3model.svg
from this run, and reframe the README to the reproducible numbers: ponytail
writes 80-94% less code, costs 47-77% less, and runs 3-6x faster than a
no-skill agent on every model. benchmarks/README.md carries the median tables
and the reproduce command. Drops nothing that is not measured.
