The witness, refinery, and polecat lifecycle components didn't coordinate automatically.\n\n## What Should Have Happened\n\n```\nMayor slings 6 beads to rig\n    ↓\nPolecats auto-spawn with synced beads, work pinned\n    ↓\nPolecats work autonomously\n    ↓\nWitness monitors progress, nudges stuck polecats\n    ↓\nPolecat completes → pushes branch → signals completion\n    ↓\nRefinery detects ready branch → rebases → merges → deletes branch\n    ↓\nWitness detects merge → nukes polecat worktree\n    ↓\nWhen all done → Witness notifies Mayor\n```\n\n## What Actually Happened\n\n1. **gt sling failed to pin beads** - polecat worktrees had stale JSONL\n2. **Manual intervention** - had to checkout latest JSONL, pin, nudge each polecat\n3. **Witness was passive** - never nudged or checked on polecats\n4. **Refinery waited for requests** - didn't detect completed branches\n5. **Manual lifecycle** - Mayor had to close beads, nuke polecats\n6. **Manual merge coordination** - had to mail refinery with merge order\n\n## Root Cause: Branch Hysteresis\n\nPolecat branches persist across runs and drift from main/beads-sync:\n- `polecat/foo` created weeks ago from old main\n- New work slung to `polecat/foo` \n- JSONL in branch doesn't have new beads\n- Pin fails\n\n## Open Questions\n\n### Q1: Fresh branches per run?\nShould each polecat spawn create a NEW branch from latest main/beads-sync?\n```\ngt sling bd-xxx rig\n  → creates polecat/foo-20251227-1630 from origin/main\n  → ensures JSONL is current\n  → after merge, branch deleted forever\n```\nPros: No drift, always current\nCons: Branch proliferation, naming complexity\n\n### Q2: Rebase existing branches?\nOr should we rebase persistent polecat branches before work?\n```\ngt sling bd-xxx rig/foo\n  → git fetch origin\n  → git rebase origin/main\n  → now JSONL is current\n```\nPros: Keeps simple naming\nCons: Rebase can fail with conflicts\n\n### Q3: Just cherry-pick JSONL?\nMinimal fix - grab latest JSONL before pinning:\n```\ngit checkout origin/beads-sync -- .beads/issues.jsonl\nbd import  # refresh DB\nbd pin bd-xxx\n```\nPros: Simple, surgical\nCons: Doesn't fix code drift, just beads\n\n### Q4: Shared beads DB?\nCould polecats share a DB (via symlink or sqlite over network)?\nPros: Always consistent\nCons: Locking complexity, daemon conflicts\n\n### Q5: Who owns polecat lifecycle?\n- Witness? (current assumption)\n- Refinery? (after merge)\n- gt sling? (on spawn)\n- New \"foreman\" role?\n\n## Proposed Solutions\n\nSee child issues for implementation details.

Track file change frequency per MR (sliding window, e.g., last 24h)\n2. At spawn time, analyze issue description / planned changes\n3. If touching hot files, either:\n   - Warn and proceed\n   - Suggest waiting for queue to clear\n   - Auto-assign to ownership zone (future)\n\n## Implementation\n- Add file_changes log to refinery state (or separate hotspot.json)\n- After each merge, record changed files with timestamp\n- gt spawn checks hotspots before assignment\n- Optional: Witness patrol aggregates hotspot data\n\n## Example\n```\n$ gt spawn --issue gt-xyz\nWarning: This issue likely touches auth/login.go\n  - Changed 3 times in last 2 hours\n  - 2 MRs pending that also touch this file\nProceed anyway?
