Witness verifies:\n   - Handoff mail exists in Engineer outbox/sent\n   - Subtasks filed in Beads\n5.

 {"id":"gt-nti8","title":"Polecats should not push branches to remote","description":"## Current Behavior\n\nPolecats push their branches to origin (e.g., `polecat/furiosa`), which pollutes the remote with many short-lived branches.\n\n## Desired Behavior\n\nPolecats should only commit locally. The Refinery handles all remote pushes:\n1. Polecat works on local `polecat/\u003cname\u003e` branch\n2. Polecat signals done (state → idle)\n3. Refinery pulls from local polecat branch\n4. Refinery runs tests, merges to main\n5. Refinery pushes main to remote\n6. If PR review needed, Refinery creates the PR\n\n## Benefits\n\n- Clean remote (no branch pollution)\n- Clear responsibility (Refinery is the quality gate)\n- Simpler cleanup (local branches deleted with worktree)\n- Less noise in GitHub UI\n\n## Trade-offs\n\n- If polecat crashes before Refinery merges, code is lost locally\n- But beads issue remains open, another polecat can redo the work\n- This is acceptable for ephemeral workers\n\n## Implementation\n\nIn polecat CLAUDE.md or landing protocol:\n- Remove `git push origin HEAD` from workflow\n- Replace with just `git commit` + signal done\n- Refinery handles the rest","status":"open","priority":2,"issue_type":"feature","created_at":"2025-12-21T14:13:48.804954-08:00","updated_at":"2025-12-21T14:13:48.804954-08:00"}
