fix(agents): no agent is pinned below the high floor

Browse source 
Operator rule (2026-10-05): standard is Opus 5.5 at reasoning effort High. Four retrieval agents (architecture-mapper, dependency-tracer, git-historian, task-finder) pinned effort: medium in frontmatter, which overrides the session level, so every /trekplan exploration ran part of its swarm below the floor. They came from fdd3ad8 on the premise that unpinned agents inherit high; e4e37f9 corrected that (unpinned inherits the session; Opus 5.5 defaults to medium), so the reason for medium was already gone. All four now pin high; the other agents keep following the session (operator's choice). docs/profiles.md (one bullet for the eight pinned agents), CLAUDE.md and README.md updated; the model-default sentence stays. Dated decision records and CHANGELOG untouched.

Red: 4 of 5 new tests fail on the pre-fix files - effort floor over all agents (offenders: the four), the four pin exactly high, no live doc says retrieval runs at medium (hits docs/profiles.md:76, CLAUDE.md:85, README.md:806), profiles.md names the four as high. Known-positive control green on arrival.
Verify 153/153 (agent-frontmatter, doc-consistency). SC9 probe: npm test green under a scratch HOME with CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA empty, nothing under its plugin data dir. Suite 1393 (1391/0/2).

The change is repo-true, not installed-true, until a release.

Voyage order 20261005T104513Z-1250514346, plan step 5/5.

The default `premium` profile runs **Opus on every phase** of the pipeline's agent work — the exploration and review swarms (5–10 sub-agents per command; spawn sites inject the composed brief > profile > frontmatter resolution, with `agents/*.md` `model: opus` pins as the fallback) and the executor (one per plan session). The command orchestrator itself is not profile-controlled: as of v5.9, command frontmatter omits `model:`, so the orchestrator follows the session model. For cheaper runs, opt into `--profile balanced` (Sonnet on brief/research/execute/continue, Opus on plan + review) or `--profile economy` (Sonnet everywhere); for maximum quality, `--profile fable` (Fable 5.1 on every phase). Per-command cost is published in `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA}/trek*-stats.jsonl` if you want exact numbers.
On the Anthropic API the `opus` alias resolves to **Opus 5.5** and `sonnet` to **Sonnet 5.5** (both default to reasoning effort `medium`), and `fable` to **Fable 5.1** (the most capable model in Claude Code; default reasoning effort `high` — xhigh must be chosen explicitly, see [`docs/profiles.md`](docs/profiles.md)). Other providers resolve `opus` and `sonnet` to other versions. Note two distinct effort axes that share the word "effort": brief `phase_signals.effort` (low/standard/high) tunes *orchestration shape* — how many agents and passes run — while native `effort:` on selected agents (retrieval at `medium`, adversarial-reasoning at `high`) tunes the *per-spawn reasoning budget*. See [`docs/profiles.md`](docs/profiles.md) § Model & effort axes.
