The wiki is now written — 15 pages covering installation, the two-machine pairing walkthrough, networking/firewall and DNS, tunnels, the GUI, the Windows service, the config and CLI reference, the security model, privacy, and troubleshooting, plus a light Architecture and Contributing page.

This PR is the one-line pointer to it from the README.

Two things the wiki deliberately does not do:

  • It doesn't restate any tuned constant. The wiki lives outside internal/doccheck's citation gate, so numbers copied into it would rot silently. It cites docs/agent/architecture.md's numbers table instead.
  • It doesn't repeat the README's unimplemented claims. Not Yet Implemented carries the Reality-check table verbatim (offline MOTD, bandwidth cap, Prometheus, MOTD polling, per-conn, UDP, tray/autostart, Linux/macOS) so users don't debug features that were never built.

Follow-up, not in this PR

While writing the wiki I verified the Reality check against the code — every row holds — and found three further inaccuracies in the README/CLI that are worth a separate fix:

  1. --headless is a no-op: bound by the flag, never read. The agent/gateway subcommands are always headless.
  2. service install --role gateway does not existnewServiceCmd registers zero flags; the role comes from the config file.
  3. The headless gateway's logged pairing code always contains the literal YOUR-PUBLIC-ADDRESS, even when gateway.public_host is set — only the GUI substitutes the real host.

Also: the README's Download section links to a release, but no tag has ever been cut, so that link 404s today.

The wiki now carries the user-facing documentation the README has no room for:
installation, the two-machine pairing walkthrough, firewall/DNS setup, the
config and CLI reference, troubleshooting, and a Not-Yet-Implemented page that
records what is advertised but not built.
