Verify harness structure (mayor/, .beads/, CLAUDE.md exist)\n2. Validate config files (town.json, rigs.json parse correctly)\n3. Check beads health (bd doctor, redirect validity)\n4. Verify git state (clean working tree, proper remotes)\n5. Check rig integrity (each registered rig exists, has config.json)\n6. Validate agent clones (mayor/rig/, refinery/rig/ exist and are valid)\n7. Check for orphaned worktrees/branches\n8. Verify daemon state (if running)\n\n## Integration\n\n- `gt doctor` could instantiate the molecule for the current agent\n- Or agent can run `bd ready` and pick up doctor tasks when prioritized\n- Results logged to beads for audit trail\n\n## Related\n\n- gt-cr9: Harness Design \u0026 Documentation (completed)\n- Molecules design in architecture.md","status":"tombstone","priority":2,"issue_type":"feature","created_at":"2025-12-19T13:03:22.688851-08:00","updated_at":"2025-12-27T21:29:57.001673-08:00","deleted_at":"2025-12-27T21:29:57.001673-08:00","deleted_by":"daemon","delete_reason":"delete","original_type":"feature"}

 {"id":"gt-id36","title":"Deacon Kernel: event processing molecule architecture","description":"\nExtend the Deacon from \"health orchestrator\" to \"event processing kernel\" that runs a \nmolecule (rounds) each wake cycle, like an OS kernel scheduler.\n\n## Core Insight\n\nThe Deacon already has:\n- Wake cycle (daemon poke, timer, lifecycle request)\n- Mail as event queue\n- Health scanning\n- Lifecycle processing\n\nBut it is REACTIVE. This epic makes it PROACTIVE with a structured molecule:\n\n```\nDeacon Wake\n├── Step 0: Session Check (should I cycle myself?)\n├── Step 1: Health Scan (Mayor, Witnesses, Crew, Refineries)\n├── Step 2: Lifecycle Processing (cycle/restart/shutdown requests)\n├── Step 3: Plugin Execution (scheduled, event-triggered, human-requested)\n├── Step 4: Event Callbacks (timers, subscriptions)\n└── Step 5: Heartbeat + Wait\n```\n\n## Key Design Decisions\n\n1. **Session cycling first** - Token costs are quadratic with session length.\n   Deacon should aggressively cycle to fresh sessions. First step of every\n   wake is \"do I need a new session?\" based on context budget.\n\n2. **Pinned bead with marching orders** - A pinned bead (like gt prime for\n   agents) defines the Deacon's rounds molecule. This is the Deacon's\n   \"kernel\" - its operating loop.\n\n3. **Keepalive file for daemon quieting** - Instead of daemon tmux-poking\n   the Deacon (which interrupts work), Deacon writes a keepalive file.\n   Daemon reads it and backs off. Worst case: Deacon forgets, gets one\n   extra heartbeat it squelches.\n\n4. **Molecule-based rounds** - The wake cycle becomes a molecule with steps.\n   Each step can have plugins (inline attention). Steps can be added/modified\n   by updating the pinned bead.\n\n## Architecture\n\n```\nGo Daemon (minimal, dumb)\n├── Reads {townRoot}/deacon/keepalive.json\n├── If fresh: do nothing\n├── If stale: poke Deacon (fallback)\n└── Process lifecycle requests (still daemon's job)\n\nDeacon (Claude agent, smart)\n├── Wakes: poke, timer, mail event\n├── Writes keepalive (quiets daemon for duration of rounds)\n├── Runs rounds molecule:\n│   ├── session-check: cycle if context budget low\n│   ├── health-scan: check agents, remediate\n│   ├── lifecycle: process requests\n│   ├── plugins: run scheduled/triggered plugins\n│   ├── events: process timer/event callbacks\n│   └── complete: update heartbeat, wait\n└── Reads marching orders from pinned bead\n```\n\n## Relation to Existing Work\n\n- Extends gt-5af (Deacon infrastructure) - CLOSED\n- Relates to gt-axz (Plugin architecture) - P3\n- Fits into phase3-deacon of gt-ngpz (Christmas Plan)\n- Enables gt-976 (Crew lifecycle) as part of health-scan step\n","status":"tombstone","priority":1,"issue_type":"epic","created_at":"2025-12-20T21:46:08.076178-08:00","updated_at":"2025-12-27T21:29:53.610323-08:00","dependencies":[{"issue_id":"gt-id36","depends_on_id":"gt-976","type":"blocks","created_at":"2025-12-20T21:48:05.215593-08:00","created_by":"daemon"}],"deleted_at":"2025-12-27T21:29:53.610323-08:00","deleted_by":"daemon","delete_reason":"delete","original_type":"epic"}

Overlap between gt and bd\n\n| Concept | gt | bd |\n|---------|----|----|\n| Hook | `gt hook` | `bd pin`, `bd hook` |\n| Mail | `gt mail` | `bd mail` (delegates) |\n| Molecules | `gt mol` (17 cmds) | `bd mol` (5 cmds) |\n\nWhich owns what? User confusion likely.\n\n### 3. Naming inconsistencies\n\n- `gt polecat` (noun) vs `gt spawn` (verb) - both about polecats\n- `gt done` vs `gt handoff` - both end work but different\n- `bd mol run` vs `bd pour` - both instantiate\n\n### 4. Subcommand depth decisions\n\n**Good patterns:**\n- `bd mol {catalog|show|bond|run|distill}` - coherent group\n- `gt mail {send|inbox|read|archive}` - coherent group\n\n**Questionable patterns:**\n- `bd create --wisp` AND `bd wisp create` - two ways to do same thing\n- `gt spawn --molecule X` AND `gt mol instantiate` - overlap\n\n### 5. Flag vs subcommand guidelines needed\n\nWhen to use flags vs subcommands?\n- `--json` as flag ✓ (modifier)\n- `--wisp` as flag for create? Or separate `bd wisp create`?\n- `--molecule` on spawn? Or separate workflow?\n\n## Recommendations to Evaluate\n\n### A. Consolidate gt top-level commands\n\nGroup related commands:\n```\ngt agent {mayor|deacon|witness|refinery|polecat}\ngt work {spawn|sling|hook|handoff|done}\ngt infra {daemon|up|down|doctor}\n```\n\n### B. Clarify gt vs bd ownership\n\n| Domain | Owner | Other defers |\n|--------|-------|--------------|\n| Issues | bd | gt uses bd |\n| Agents | gt | bd doesn't touch |\n| Molecules | bd mol | gt mol wraps for UX |\n| Hooks | bd pin/hook | gt hook wraps |\n| Mail | gt mail | bd mail delegates |\n\n### C. Apply consistent naming\n\n- All agent commands: nouns (`gt polecat`, `gt mayor`)\n- All work commands: verbs (`gt spawn`, `gt sling`, `gt hook`)\n- Avoid synonyms: pick one term and stick with it\n\n### D. Flag vs subcommand rule\n\n- Flags: modify behavior of command (`--json`, `--force`, `--wisp`)\n- Subcommands: distinct operations (`mol run`, `mol squash`, `mol burn`)\n- Exception: very common operations can have top-level aliases\n\n## Tasks\n\n1. [ ] Review gt command groupings - propose consolidation\n2. [ ] Review bd command groupings - check for sprawl\n3. [ ] Document gt vs bd ownership boundaries\n4. [ ] Identify and resolve naming inconsistencies\n5. [ ] Document flag vs subcommand decision criteria\n6. [ ] Create migration plan for any breaking changes\n7. [ ] Update help text to be consistent\n8. [ ] Test agent UX: can Claude guess commands correctly?\n\n## Success Criteria\n\n- New user can guess command structure intuitively\n- `gt --help` fits on one screen (or is well-categorized)\n- No duplicate functionality between gt and bd\n- Consistent naming throughout\n- Claude agents can discover commands without documentation","status":"tombstone","priority":1,"issue_type":"epic","created_at":"2025-12-24T23:48:42.420867-08:00","updated_at":"2025-12-27T21:29:52.547876-08:00","dependencies":[{"issue_id":"gt-mbyy","depends_on_id":"gt-jo9n","type":"blocks","created_at":"2025-12-24T23:48:52.221824-08:00","created_by":"daemon"}],"deleted_at":"2025-12-27T21:29:52.547876-08:00","deleted_by":"daemon","delete_reason":"delete","original_type":"epic"}
