network.py: tools/network.py now computes freight cost from the real fuel
model (puga.shipping.round_trip_cost) for direct-jump transfers instead of
the flat 9250 AIC placeholder; gateway transfers or an explicit trip_cost
in the chain YAML still use that as a fallback. puga/network.py's combine()
docstring now flags that its "flows cancel, only freight matters" claim
only holds under a symmetric-price basis (uni30, the default) - under
--basis real it understates the benefit of physical transfer by the
bid-ask spread on the moved quantity.
whatif.py: now charges marginal freight too - only the EXTRA round trips
an addition needs beyond the base's existing traffic, so a small addition
riding along on already-necessary hauls costs ~0, while one that adds
meaningfully to shipped tonnage doesn't get a free pass.
Terminology: "profit/day ÷ capex" was being reported as "ROI/day X%",
which invites reading it as a compoundable rate. It's just 1/payback_days -
there's no reinvestment mechanism and every opportunity here is
capacity/market-limited, so it can't be annualized like a real yield.
Payback in days is now the primary number everywhere (scan.py, simulate.py,
network.py, whatif.py); see docs/decisions.md for the reasoning.

- tools/buy.py: cash-aware shopping list (construction gap vs empire state's built
buildings, plus N days of NET operating stock via simulate() so self-produced
inputs net against consumption), priced at real order-book fill cost, checked
against cash/reserve, flags multi-trip, binary-searches an affordable size when short
- tools/sell.py: where to post an ask vs hitting the bids now, with expected
clear time from 30-day traded-volume percentiles
- docs/library.md: module map and patterns for using puga.* directly instead of
the CLI, plus the "simulate() only knows what the plan lists" gotcha that a
first version of buy.py hit
- tools/simulate.py: fix --no-hq being a no-op; tools/state.py: permits_total_override
for when the in-game HQ screen disagrees with FIO's MaximumPermits
- docs/mechanics.md: HQ display vs PRUNplanner's HQ flag, workforce arrival sources
- CLAUDE.md, docs/roadmap.md updated

- tools/simulate.py + puga/simulate.py: replica of PRUNplanner's simulator (flows and
efficiency verified against screenshots), reports real new capex (planned minus built)
- tools/scan.py: staffing variants, freight, HQ/experts, --planet mode, demolish-later,
--min-n as a pure market-size filter, --json output
- tools/history.py, tools/persistence.py: margin history and short-horizon payback checks
- tools/plan_push.py: guarded delete; tools/state.py: syncs to empire/
- README with features and setup; CLAUDE.md made generic
- Own-empire material (profile, state, plans, notes) moved to gitignored empire/;
generic examples in plans/examples and state/company.example.yaml
