Add a top-level `README.md` mapping the boxes and per-machine docs under `docs/boxes/` (grouped `colony/`, `home/`, `misc/`), one file per host, VM and container documenting role, services and networking with source pointers. Also point `AGENTS.md` at the new docs. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>

installer
The custom NixOS installer image used to bootstrap new boxes.
- Source:
nixos/installer.nix
Role
- Defines
nixos.systems.installer, a minimal system whosemy.buildAs.*outputs produce installable artifacts — primarily a bootable ISO (isoImage), and the same base is reused for kexec/netboot trees. - Build it with the devshell commands (see
AGENTS.md):build-iso installerbuild-kexec installer/build-netboot installer
- A released ISO is what
colony's VM definitions reference as install media; theupdate-installerdevshell command tags a release to trigger a rebuild.
This is a build target rather than a deployed machine — there is no running
installer host.
