feat: complete generalization — smoke tests, README, all personal refs extracted

- UserProfile class drives all personal data
- First-run wizard gates app until user.yaml exists
- Docker Compose stack: remote/cpu/single-gpu/dual-gpu profiles
- Vision service containerized (single-gpu/dual-gpu)
- All Alex/Library references removed from app and scripts
- Circuit Forge LLC / Peregrine branding throughout

+# Peregrine
+
+**AI-powered job search pipeline — by [Circuit Forge LLC](https://circuitforge.io)**
+
+Automates the full job search lifecycle: discovery → matching → cover letters → applications → interview prep.
+Privacy-first, local-first. Your data never leaves your machine.
+
+---
+
+## Quick Start
+
+```bash
+git clone https://git.circuitforge.io/circuitforge/peregrine
+cd peregrine
+cp .env.example .env
+docker compose --profile remote up -d
+```
+
+Open http://localhost:8501 — the setup wizard will guide you through the rest.
+
+---
+
+## Inference Profiles
+
+| Profile | Services | Use case |
+|---------|----------|----------|
+| `remote` | app + searxng | No GPU; LLM calls go to Anthropic/OpenAI |
+| `cpu` | app + ollama + searxng | No GPU; local models on CPU (slow) |
+| `single-gpu` | app + ollama + vision + searxng | One GPU for cover letters + research + vision |
+| `dual-gpu` | app + ollama + vllm + vision + searxng | GPU 0 = Ollama, GPU 1 = vLLM |
+
+Set the profile in `.env`:
+```bash
+# .env
+DOCKER_COMPOSE_PROFILES=single-gpu
+```
+
+Or select it during the setup wizard.
+
+---
+
+## First-Run Wizard
+
+On first launch, the app shows a 5-step setup wizard:
+
+1. **Hardware Detection** — auto-detects NVIDIA GPUs and suggests a profile
+2. **Your Identity** — name, email, career summary (used in cover letters and prompts)
+3. **Sensitive Employers** — companies masked as "previous employer (NDA)" in research briefs
+4. **Inference & API Keys** — Anthropic/OpenAI keys (remote), or Ollama model (local)
+5. **Notion Sync** — optional; syncs jobs to a Notion database
+
+Wizard writes `config/user.yaml`. Re-run by deleting that file.
+
+---
+
+## Email Sync (Optional)
+
+Peregrine can monitor your inbox for job-related emails (interview requests, rejections, survey links) and automatically update job stages.
+
+Configure via **Settings → Email** after setup. Requires:
+- IMAP access to your email account
+- For Gmail: enable IMAP + create an App Password
