1.8.8b1 — Wiki moves to the 1.8.8 preview line

At publication, Wiki moved to the 1.8.8 preview line. The planned stable Personal Wiki feature release later moved to 1.9.0; this 1.8.8b1 artifact is unchanged. Version 1.8.7 shipped the dashboard patch based on stable 1.8.6. Previously published 1.8.7b1–b4 previews keep their original tags and artifacts.

This retains the Wiki features from 1.8.7b4, with corrected package version and release-channel documentation. It also fixes sync --all --dry-run losing its inspection-only behavior: dry runs now take precedence over execution modes. The published 1.8.7 dashboard transport fix is carried forward. It includes prompt-free initialization, People / Organizations / Projects / Skills maps, Skill source snapshots, readable CLI output and workflow help, page discovery, and validated candidate updates.

Existing notebooks and configuration stay in place. Upgrading does not start a model, enable scheduling, or rerun initialization. The remaining factual-quality and broader Wiki design limitations from b4 still apply. Structural checks are not a guarantee that generated conclusions are correct.

See previous functionality and acceptance. The separate stable release is 1.8.7.
