docs(install): stitch the README → template first-run handoff — item 6 complete

Slice (c), the last of the docs review: the install/first-run story
read end to end against the tree. Facts held (mkFlake args match the
table, disko's @snapshots + hibernation swapfile, .#default/.#me
naming); the one seam — README §3 never pointed the manual path at the
template README's first-run steps — got a connective paragraph. Item 6
deleted from BACKLOG; ROADMAP § Full docs review flipped to ✓.

-ROADMAP § Full docs review. Done: the roadmap/backlog split (this file);
-slice (a) option-surface reconcile — README tables fixed (9 gaps) and
-the diff made permanent as the `option-docs` flake check (eval-walked
-surface vs tables, catches stale rows too); slice (b) drift pass over
-docs/OVERRIDES.md, docs/TESTING.md, templates/downstream/README.md —
-every factual claim spot-checked against the tree, all held; fixed the
-two gaps (OVERRIDES now routes to `nomarchy.monitors`; TESTING §1 lists
-the shell-syntax check its CI § claimed); slice (d) recovery runbook —
-docs/RECOVERY.md (theme/HM generations → greetd journals → boot an older
-generation → snapper restore/rollback → nixos-enter), linked from the
-README tree + §5. Remaining:
-- **(c) install/first-run story** read end to end (README install §§ +
-  template README as one narrative; fix the seams) — the last slice.
-Site-vs-markdown is a Decision (below). **Verify:** V0; (c) against the

+## 2026-07-04 — docs slice (c): install story — item 6 COMPLETE (iteration #16)
+- **Task:** BACKLOG NOW#6 slice (c), the last one — install/first-run
+  narrative end to end.
+- **Did:** read README §2 (ISO/installer) → §3 (downstream) → template
+  README as one story; checked the facts en route: mkFlake's arg
+  surface == the §3 table (src/username/hardwareProfile/system, lib.nix),
+  disko really makes @snapshots + the hibernation swapfile, .#default /
+  .#me names consistent. One seam fixed: §3 showed `nix flake init -t`
+  but never handed off to the template README's six first-run steps —
+  connective paragraph added (+ "the installer does all of this").
+  Item 6 done → deleted from BACKLOG (NOW now empty); ROADMAP § Full
+  docs review flipped to ✓ with the slice summary.
+- **Verified:** V0 (docs-only) — flake check clean pre-commit.
+- **Pending:** docs-site-vs-Markdown stays a Decision.
+- **Next suggestion:** NEXT#8 (viewers + mime defaults) is the new queue
+  head; note its "Default browser" Decision dependency — the mime module
+  half can proceed with mkDefault degradation regardless.
