GenLayer Chain moved from its ZK Stack deployment to a custom-gas-token Arbitrum Orbit chain that settles to Ethereum, with GEN as the native gas token (consensus v0.6). Replace every zkSync / ZK Stack description of the chain and expand the GenLayer Chain integration page with what exchanges and integrators need: GEN as an ERC-20 on Ethereum and native asset on the chain, retryable deposits and Outbox withdrawals, ArbSys block numbers, Arbitrum receipt fields, and the difference between sequencer inclusion, Ethereum settlement and protocol finality. Asimov and Bradbury still serve their pre-v0.6 chain endpoints, so the Networks page keeps them and states that they move to Orbit with v0.6 rather than publishing the unreleased Orbit testnet endpoints. The node API reference drops the zks_* proxy section; validator setup now asks for GenLayer Chain HTTP + WebSocket RPC (provider or Nitro full node). The sanitized config placeholders no longer say ZKSync. The zksync rate-limit group keys stay because node v0.5.14 still ships them and the block is synced from the node repository.
The inflation relayer no longer proves zkSync batches through GEN.executeL2Message. On Orbit the round trip is: Staking request via ArbSys, Outbox execution after assertion confirmation, permissionless GEN.executeInflationRequest within the one-day approval, retryable delivery to the inflation escrow, and an Outbox acknowledgement before the next request. The percentage incentive is replaced by a capped gas reimbursement minted on top of the tranche. Burns are native ArbSys withdrawals completed through the Outbox. The private-repo script pointer is replaced by Arbitrum's public messaging guides.
Checked against genlayer-consensus main (v0.6): - validatorJoin takes the operator public key and a possession proof; the no-argument and address overloads no longer exist. - validatorView returns a struct; size exits with validatorSelfSharesOf. - Staking.validatorClaim pays the ValidatorWallet; owners claim through validatorWallet.validatorClaim(), which forwards to the owner. - There is no payable delegatorDeposit; top up with delegatorJoin. - delegatorClaim is callable only by the delegator. - Claims also wait for pricing and slash settlement, and epoch 1 is skipped only when inflation for epoch 2 has already been delivered. - Operator rotation is a delayed two-step transfer. Fixes the broken CLI staking anchor and refreshes the troubleshooting table with the current error names.
Extend check-v06-release-docs to forbid zkSync / ZK Stack wording on the chain, network, keeper, node API and staking pages, require the Orbit inflation call and the join possession proof, and reject the removed validatorView array layout and payable delegatorDeposit. The staking guide and GenLayer Chain integration page join the internal-link check.

- Line 82: Update the “Ethereum to GenLayer Chain” section to distinguish native
GEN deposits sent through the Delayed Inbox from retryable tickets: explain that
these deposits do not create tickets for manual redemption, and reserve the
retryable-ticket flow for parent-to-child messages and other bridge flows.
Review comments at @pages/validators/network-keeper-roles.mdx:
- Line 53: Update the “When to call” guidance to include checking for pending
retryables that need redemption and funded escrows that need an
`ArbitrumInflationEscrow.retry()` call after a failed Staking call; note that
retryable tickets must be redeemed within their available time window.

Address review on #671: - Networks and setup guide label the listed chain endpoint as the pre-v0.6 testnet chain and limit the Nitro full-node option to networks running v0.6. - Native GEN deposits through the Inbox are credited on inclusion and do not create a retryable; retryables apply to messages and contract calls such as inflation delivery. - The inflation relayer's "When to call" list now includes failed retryable redemption (redeem or keepalive) and deferred escrow delivery (ArbitrumInflationEscrow.retry()).
Main now documents Bradbury Phase 2 on the Arbitrum Orbit chain (Asimov dropped, node v0.6.0-rc.1, Conduit RPC keys). Resolution keeps main's network, validator setup, config and sanitizer content, and keeps this PR's additions on top: the integration-page link and "settles to Ethereum / native GEN" wording on Networks and the setup guide, the Orbit text in the retrofit prompt, and removal of the zks_* passthrough section from the node API reference. The pre-v0.6 Asimov/Bradbury caveats from this PR are dropped as obsolete, and the integration-page callout now names Bradbury Phase 2.

Problem and outcome
Exchanges and integrators are reading the public docs, which still describe GenLayer Chain as a zkSync Elastic Chain / ZK Stack L2. Consensus v0.6 runs on a custom-gas-token Arbitrum Orbit chain that settles to Ethereum, with GEN as the native gas token. The staking and keeper pages also predate the v0.6 contracts.
This PR replaces every zkSync description of the chain, expands the GenLayer Chain integration page into an integrator-oriented overview, rewrites the inflation-relayer keeper flow for Orbit, and corrects the staking guide against the v0.6 contracts.
Non-goals: publishing Orbit testnet endpoints or contract addresses (Asimov/Bradbury still serve their pre-v0.6 chain), regenerating CLI/SDK references, editing historical changelogs.
