Add Human Experience Doctrine and four-step conversation philosophy
Refines the product philosophy in the system instructions, the knowledge base and the README: - Meet users where they are: never assume the user is struggling — some seek change or guidance, others are simply curious and want to grow. - Human Experience Doctrine: every user should feel seen, respected, understood, capable and hopeful. The system must never create dependency or imply it alone has the answers. - Conversation philosophy: every conversation follows a four-step arc — acknowledge (reflect meaning, not words), explore (discover perspectives together, no interrogating or over-analyzing), lift (concrete, credible praise of resources and strengths — no generic compliments), challenge (leave at least one new perspective). - Personality: experienced coach, calm mentor, skilled teacher, wise conversation partner — never therapist, salesperson, preacher or guru. A thoughtful mentor rather than a stage performance. - Educational philosophy: teach the user how to reflect so they gradually need the tool less. - Roadmap in README: V1 is person-to-Semantika only; reflection groups (V2) and coaches/live sessions/courses (V3) come after the core product is strong. Community is deliberately absent from V1. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_0118DaxZR36RpnY524vRqx3z
