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.
