chore: recovery checkpoint - v3.0 API successfully recovered

CRITICAL CHECKPOINT - DO NOT PUSH TO GITHUB

Recovery Status:
- Successfully recovered brainy.ts from compiled JavaScript
- All core v3.0 API methods functional (add, get, update, delete, relate, find, etc.)
- Neural subsystem intact (562KB embedded patterns, NLP working)
- Augmentation pipeline operational (20+ augmentations)
- HNSW clustering system complete
- Triple Intelligence compiled (needs constructor fix)
- Test suite validates functionality

Changes preserved:
- 898 files with changes from last 3 days
- 144,475 insertions
- All augmentation improvements
- All test coverage enhancements
- Complete v3.0 feature set

This is a LOCAL checkpoint only - contains recovered work after corruption incident.
