The previous derive-from-README mechanism (split_sections, SECTION_RULES, TRIM_SUBSECTIONS, REPLACEMENTS) generated a 24 997 byte Hub doc with 3 byte headroom against the 25 kB Hub limit. Every README addition forced a 'trim something else first' exercise, and the resulting copy was awkward (terse, repetitive linkbacks injected mid-section). Replace with a single hand-maintained HUB_TEMPLATE constant. The Hub doc is now intentionally slim (~5.5 kB, ~78 percent headroom) and focuses on what Hub readers actually need: elevator pitch, image variants, quick start, what's inside, auth, persistence, and link-outs to the gitea README for depth. Trade-off: when image-variants or quick-start change, update HUB_TEMPLATE here too. That coupling is now explicit and local rather than spread across SECTION_RULES + REPLACEMENTS + TRIM machinery, and most README edits no longer require regenerating DOCKER_HUB.md at all. Generator simplified from 323 lines to 199 lines (270-line net reduction across the script + DOCKER_HUB.md). README and Hub doc are now independent surfaces. CHANGELOG and AGENTS updated to reflect the new coupling. Release-day checklist tightened: README -> regenerate DOCKER_HUB ONLY if HUB_TEMPLATE changed -> promote CHANGELOG -> grep AGENTS -> commit -> tag.
