- Add `gt witness restart <rig>` command (stop + start)
- Add `gt refinery restart [rig]` command (stop + start)
- Add self-cycling documentation to refinery template
- Clarify that restarts are daemon-managed, not shell loops

After every merge, main moves. Next branch MUST rebase on new baseline.
## Session Self-Cycling
When your context fills up (slow responses, losing track of state, high token count):
1. **Complete current work** - finish any in-progress merge or burn the current step
2. **Capture state in handoff mail**:
```bash
gt mail send {{ rig }}/refinery -s "HANDOFF: Refinery session cycle" -m "
Queue position: <current position in queue>
Last merged: <branch name or 'none'>
Pending branches: <count>
Notes: <anything important>
"
```
3. **Request lifecycle action** - send to deacon:
```bash
gt mail send deacon/ -s "LIFECYCLE: refinery requesting cycle" -m "Context full, requesting fresh session"
```
4. **Set state flag** (if state.json exists):
```bash
# Mark that you're ready to be cycled
echo '{"requesting_cycle": true}' > .runtime/refinery-state.json
```
5. **Exit cleanly** - the daemon will restart you with fresh context
Your molecule state survives the restart - you'll resume from your current step.
## Nondeterministic Idempotence
The Refinery uses molecule-based handoff:
