Resolve the S14 default-profile contradiction. Investigation overturned
the audit addendum's guess ("code is the bug → balanced"): commit 40d8742
(2026-05-13, "pin all sub-agents to Opus permanently (operator request)")
plus VOYAGE_PROFILE=premium in ~/.zshenv establish premium as the deliberate
default. Operator confirmed in-session: premium is the shipped default; fix
the stale docs, not the code. No code or behaviour changed (lib/ untouched).
Docs (default-name → premium, consistent across resolver + all three docs):
- README + docs/profiles.md + docs/operations.md: 3 lookup-order sites and
3 profile tables now mark `premium` as the default.
- premium table row corrected to all-opus (matches premium.yaml — a third
inconsistency the audit missed; README/profiles.md showed opus/sonnet/...).
Cost narrative made honest (premium = all-Opus reality):
- §Cost profile rewritten: uniform model per phase, no orchestrator-vs-swarm
split; cheaper via --profile balanced/economy.
- Removed false "Sonnet exploration/review swarm" claims (README 195/223/266
model-neutral; 804 parenthetical; the "Switch the planning model" note).
- profiles.md custom-profile prose corrected: built-in wins over same-named
custom (findProfilePath), dropping the bogus "balanced is the locked default".
Pins (TDD red→green, doc-consistency.test.mjs):
- default-profile name invariant (resolveProfile ↔ README/profiles/operations)
- profile tables ↔ each built-in yaml phase_models (structural, catches drift)
- cost-claim regression guard (no resurrected Sonnet-swarm phrasing)
S16/S18 surface untouched: counts (23 agents, 9/10 dims, 5/6 dims), versions,
framing gates unchanged. Full suite 686 (684 pass / 2 skip / 0 fail).
