Document the running-dinner concept, setup (uv + .env API key), CSV input
schema, how to run it (CLI and library), output format, a "what to tweak"
table mapping each knob to its file:line, the algorithm (group building,
rotation topology, annealing), testing (offline + opt-in e2e), limitations,
and development commands.

- test_e2e_api.py: minimal 2-address (4-element) call to the real Google
Routes API; reads the real key from env/.env and skips on a placeholder.
- Marked `e2e` and deselected by default via addopts; run with
`pytest -m e2e`.

- Add python-dotenv and call load_dotenv() in traveltimes.py before reading
GOOGLE_MAPS_API_KEY (exported env vars still take precedence).
- Add .env.example template; the real .env stays gitignored.

Route building / optimization (tatami_masterplan.py):
- fast_total_time was permutation-invariant: it applied get_courses to
group *values* instead of slots and ignored the permutation, so every
ordering scored identically and the annealing optimized nothing. It now
maps each rotation slot to its assigned group via the permutation.
- Replaced the broken next_permutation/simulated_annealing (enumerated n!
orderings per iteration, fed unnormalized Boltzmann weights to
np.random.choice -> ValueError, and returned the last random sample) with
a standard neighbor-swap annealer that tracks and returns the best
solution and handles <2 slots.
- Convert the reduced Timedelta matrix to float seconds before annealing
(np.exp can't operate on Timedelta).
Group building (tatami_masterplan.py):
- assign_courses set each group's hosts (sorted by course) before all
courses were assigned, so hosts whose course was still None got
mis-ordered. Assign all courses first, then wire up hosts.
- get_masterplan no longer mutates the caller's participant list.
classes.py:
- Narrow casts on distance-matrix lookups to satisfy the mypy gate
(pre-existing failures).
Tests:
- Add pytest suite (74 tests) covering the rotation topology, route cost
and optimization, the domain model, the masterplan pipeline, and the
Routes API wrapper (HTTP mocked). The cost cross-check caught the
assign_courses ordering bug above.
