chore: remove ArcheHelix branding, use plain PDCA language

Browse Source 
The archetypes and shadows are distinctive enough — no need for
a fancy name on top of the standard PDCA cycle terminology.

**Multi-agent orchestration with Jungian archetypes for Claude Code.**
ArcheFlow gives Claude Code a structured way to coordinate multiple agents through quality cycles. Instead of one agent doing everything, specialized archetypes collaborate through the **ArcheHelix** — a rising PDCA spiral where each iteration builds on feedback from the last.

ArcheFlow can run fully unattended — queue your tasks, walk away, read the results in the morning:
- **Self-organizing:** Archetypes coordinate through the ArcheHelix without human input
- **Self-organizing:** Archetypes coordinate through PDCA cycles without human input
- **Self-correcting:** Failed reviews trigger automatic revision cycles
- **Safe:** All code stays on worktree branches until all reviewers approve
- **Visible:** Full session log with every decision, finding, and merge

1. **Strength has a shadow.** Every capability becomes destructive when unchecked. The Explorer who won't stop researching. The Guardian who blocks everything. The Maker who ships without review. ArcheFlow names these shadows and corrects them.
2. **Quality is a spiral, not a gate.** A single review pass misses things. The ArcheHelix spirals upward — each cycle catches what the previous one missed, until the reviewers have nothing left to find.

3. **Autonomy needs structure.** Agents left to their own devices produce mediocre results. Agents given clear roles, typed communication, and quality gates produce exceptional work — even overnight, even unattended.
