Rohit Ghumare d1cb9d1933 feat: book edition pipeline, fundamentals-first headlines, animated figures, verified bug fixes (#348)
Book pipeline: six-volume EPUB/PDF compilation built by CI from lesson
sources (book/, scripts/build_book.py, themed title pages with edition
stamps, site-matching print theme), attached to every GitHub release.
Homepage Books section and README section link the latest release.

Fundamentals-first headline policy across the course: 16 lesson titles
and 30+ taglines/section headings now lead with the concept (agent
state machines, actor model, role-based teams, memory paging, serving
engine internals, permission modes); framework and product names are
demoted to attributed in-body examples. README, ROADMAP, quizzes, and
prerequisite references synced. New agent-memory taxonomy section maps
memory types to representative implementations.

Vendor-neutral model policy: runnable defaults read the LLM_MODEL env
var with undated aliases; dated snapshot ids removed; multi-provider
phrasing in the setup lesson.

Lessons deepened with original material: prediction-game origins of
perplexity (05/16), scripted-era chatbot lineage 1950-2001 (05/17),
causal-triangle derivation from prefix averaging plus GPT-5 date fix
(07/07). Three new animated site figures back them (figures-history.js).

llms.txt now carries per-lesson raw markdown links so agents can fetch
full lesson text directly.

Bug fixes verified with executed repros: capstone solved flag keyed to
test results, 405B cost estimator overflow, f-string crash on
Python <3.12, no-torch demo path, negative stable BCE, all-zero
stationary distribution, inverted Cohens d, per-lesson quiz panel,
lesson-fetch retry with honest errors, decision-trees doc completed,
editor shortcuts, rustc run command, Docker python3.12 build with doc
sync, git lesson fork flow, FIPA receiver field, fnm under Rosetta,
15 curl-verified link fixes, remaining imdb dataset id spot.
