docs: reflect Layer 17 + Gaps 75/76 in README and llms.txt

Update Community vs API table and threat-library counts (150+ categories,
1,500+ regex patterns, 2,500+ semantic fingerprints). Document the new
AgenticExecutionMonitor (Layer 17) agentic gate — compiled/parallel execution
plan decomposition, per-node validation, and session fan-out tracking — and add
compiled-plan smuggling and UI-injection to the defended-attack list.

+
+AI agents can obtain Guardian SDK API keys autonomously without a human account.
+The endpoint is public — no Authorization header required.
+
+POST /v1/agents/provision
+Base URL: https://api.oraclestechnologies.com
+Content-Type: application/json
+
+Request body:
+{
+  "agent_name":    "<string, 1-128 chars>",        // required — display name of this agent
+  "intended_use":  "<string, 10-1000 chars>",      // required — scanned by Guardian before any key is issued

+  "agent_card_url": "https://..."                  // optional — A2A agent card URL for trust verification
+}
+
+IMPORTANT: Do not populate a field named "website" — it is a honeypot.
+Agents that populate it receive a fake success with no real key issued.
+
+### Security gates (applied to every request in order)
+1. Honeypot check — "website" field must be absent or null.
+2. IP rate limit — max 5 provision attempts per source IP per hour. Returns 429 with Retry-After: 3600.
+3. Guardian threat scan — "agent_name" and "intended_use" are scanned before any action is taken.
+   BLOCK (403): adversarial or prohibited content detected — no key issued.
+   CHALLENGE: allowed with warning logged.
+   Guardian unavailable: 503 returned (fail closed — provisioning never skips the scan).
+
+### Path A — Free tier (HTTP 201, immediate)
+tier="free" → key issued immediately in the response.
+Plan: agent_free — 1,000 requests/month, 60 RPM.
+
+### Path B — Pro tier, autonomous x402 payment (HTTP 402 → HTTP 201)
+tier="pro" + wallet_address provided → HTTP 402 with x402-spec payment body.
+

+  "x402Version": 1,
+  "accepts": [{
+    "scheme": "exact",
+    "network": "base",
+    "maxAmountRequired": "59990000",                        // $59.99 USDC, 6 decimals

+    "maxTimeoutSeconds": 600,
+    ...
+  }]
+}
+
+Payment flow:
+1. Send exactly 59,990,000 USDC base units to accepts[0].payTo on Base Mainnet.
+   The deposit address is unique per payment session — do not send to a previously used address.
+2. Re-submit the identical POST /v1/agents/provision request with an X-PAYMENT header:
+   X-PAYMENT: <base64-encoded JSON: {"x402Version":1,"scheme":"exact","network":"base","payload":{...}}>
+3. Server verifies USDC settlement on-chain via Stripe. If not yet confirmed, HTTP 402 is returned
+   with status details — retry after 1-3 minutes for Base Mainnet confirmation.
+4. On confirmed settlement: HTTP 201 with Pro key in response body.
+   payment_settled=true is recorded; no manual verification required.
+
+If the payment session expires (>10 minutes), re-submit without X-PAYMENT to obtain a new deposit address.
+
+Plan: agent_pro — 100,000 requests/month, 600 RPM, $59.99/month.
+
+### Path C — Pro tier, Stripe supervised payment (HTTP 402 with checkout URL)

+A human supervisor completes payment at the URL. Pro key is delivered to contact_email.
+No key is returned in an API response for this path.
