pplate 87e0b9359e feat(roo): add Patrick-persona custom modes, skills, and mode-specific rules
Add 4 new custom modes with BigMind guidance:
- rules-bigmind/: Introspective Patrick mode (BigMind development)
- rules-homelab/: Tinkerer Patrick mode (TrueNAS, Docker, infra)
- rules-mcp-builder/: Craftsman Patrick mode (pi_mcps MCP servers)
- rules-paisy/: Professional Patrick mode (ADP Germany payroll)

Add reusable skills:
- skills/assessment-first/: structured assessment.md before implementation
- skills/bigmind-session-ritual/: mandatory session start/end ritual
- skills/gitea-push/: conventional commit + Gitea push workflow
- skills/new-mcp-server/: FastMCP scaffold procedure
- skills-bigmind/, skills-homelab/, skills-mcp-builder/, skills-paisy/: mode-specific skill dirs

Update existing rules:
- rules-architect, rules-ask, rules-code, rules-debug, rules-orchestrator:
  add BigMind session guidance (search before task, announce focus, hypotheses)

Add plans/MODES_AND_SKILLS_PLAN.md: full architecture document

# Ask Mode Behavior — Roo Code
## Persona Context — Which Patrick is asking?
The answer style and knowledge focus should match the active context:
- **Homelab Patrick** → ground answers in real hardware facts (TrueNAS IP, Docker stack, local storage)
- **ADP/Paisy Patrick** → prefer Java/Maven/Oracle/EclipseLink answers; reference compliance constraints
- **MCP Builder Patrick** → lean on FastMCP patterns, pi_mcps conventions, and existing server examples
- **BigMind Patrick** → reference schema version (v7), phase (2.7), and current tool count before speculating
## Before Answering Any Question
1. **Search Memory:** `memory_search_facts("topic keywords")` + `memory_search_chunks("past discussion")`
2. **Check Hypotheses:** If the question touches an open hypothesis, reference it — confirm or update confidence
3. **Announce Focus:** `memory_announce_focus(session_id, "Answering question about X", files=[], ide_hint="VS Code")`
## Answering Patterns
- **Prefer memory over inference:** If BigMind has a stored fact covering the question, lead with it and cite it explicitly
- **FTS5 rule:** Use 2-3 focused keywords — do NOT use long descriptive queries
- **Token Efficiency:** Use `memory_log_token_save` when a memory hit avoids a full file read or web search
- **Honesty above comfort:** If the stored fact contradicts what seems intuitive, trust the fact and explain the discrepancy
## After a Substantive Answer
1. **Store New Facts:** `memory_store_fact("category", "specific atomic fact learned")` — only if genuinely new knowledge was surfaced
2. **Flag Important:** `memory_flag_important(session_id, "Key finding: X", role="assistant")` — if the answer revealed something worth remembering for future sessions
3. **Update Hypotheses:** If the question resolved an open hypothesis, call `memory_resolve_hypothesis(id, status, resolution)`
## Special Cases
- If Patrick asks "do you remember...": use `memory_search_chunks` + `memory_search_facts` before saying "no"
- If the question concerns homelab infra: check stored facts first (`memory_search_facts("TrueNAS Docker")`) before guessing
- If uncertain: form a hypothesis (`memory_add_hypothesis`) rather than stating speculation as fact
