Setup dirs vs deployed schema

Medium Severity

Fresh cortex setup now creates people/, ventures/, and related directories from KNOWLEDGE_CATEGORIES, but _deploy_schema still copies schema-template.md, which instructs agents to use entities/, concepts/, summaries/, and how-to/. New stores get mismatched folders and operating rules.

P1 Badge Synchronize category list with deployed schema template

Updating KNOWLEDGE_CATEGORIES to people/ventures/topics/... without updating the schema that cortex setup deploys introduces a behavioral mismatch: _deploy_schema() still copies skills/cortex/schema-template.md, which instructs agents to use entities/concepts/summaries/how-to. On fresh setups this can send new pages into directories the CLI no longer scans in status/rebuild-index, causing missing counts and stale indexes again. Please update the deployed schema template (store layout + page type table) in the same change.

Learning ops files counted

Low Severity

Adding learning to KNOWLEDGE_CATEGORIES makes cortex status count every .md in learning/ except index.md. Setup always creates learning/corrections.md and learning/patterns.md, so those operational logs inflate “Knowledge Pages” and the reported total even though they are not compiled knowledge pages.
