Subject: [PATCH] docs(readme): Prole. banner and header

Replace the knoe ASCII art banner with a Prole. banner linking to all
four live services (svc/db/git/api.prole.org). Add # Prole. as the
top-level header with a one-paragraph description of the homelab
deployment and its relationship to upstream knoe-db. Demote the Knoe
platform overview to ## Knoe platform.

-# Knoe
+# Prole.
+
+**Prole** is the reference homelab deployment of the **[Knoe](https://git.knoe.dev)** platform — running on a three-node k3s ARM64 cluster with Samba Active Directory, Kerberos SSO, and Google Workspace login across all services.
+
+This repo is the `prole.org` fork of [knoe-db](https://git.knoe.dev/knoe-dev/knoe-db), tracking upstream and carrying the cluster-specific manifests, identity configuration, and operational tooling for `prole.org`.

+
+## Knoe platform
 
 **Knoe makes it practical to run a Supabase-style platform across air-gapped, edge, and cloud environments.**
