Fall back to cwd-based detection (legacy/manual)\n3. Warn if they disagree\n\n## Subcommands\n- `gt role` / `gt role show` - show current role\n- `gt role home [ROLE]` - show home dir for role\n- `gt role detect` - force cwd-based detection (debugging)\n- `gt role list` - list all known roles\n- `gt role env` - print export statements\n\n## Integration Points\n- gt prime - show role, warn on mismatch\n- gt mol status - use gt role instead of own detection\n- gt handoff - preserve GT_ROLE, reset to home\n- All spawners - inject GT_ROLE and GT_ROLE_HOME\n\n## Background\nMayor wandered to refinery dir, handoff preserved it, role detection broke.\nEnv var injection makes role stable across cd operations.","status":"tombstone","priority":1,"issue_type":"feature","created_at":"2025-12-25T00:50:53.378051-08:00","updated_at":"2025-12-27T21:29:52.539527-08:00","deleted_at":"2025-12-27T21:29:52.539527-08:00","deleted_by":"daemon","delete_reason":"delete","original_type":"feature"}

Running it shows:\n\n  beads-sync-orphans: 221 file(s) on beads-sync not in main\n\nThis is in the gastown repo (checking from crew/max).\n\n## Background\n\n- Earlier today we recovered orphaned mail migration code lost in merge 96c773f\n- Recently simplified architecture: all workers use mayor/rig/.beads (redirects)\n- This simplification may have caused beads-sync branch to diverge unexpectedly\n\n## Investigation Steps\n\n1. From crew/max run: git diff main..beads-sync --stat\n2. Check if beads-sync should even exist anymore (was for multi-clone sync)\n3. If obsolete with redirect architecture, consider deleting it\n4. If it has legitimate changes, cherry-pick or merge to main\n\n## Key Question\n\nWith all workers using mayor/rig/.beads via redirects, is beads-sync still needed?\n\n## Commands\n\ngit log main..beads-sync --oneline | head -20\ngit diff main..beads-sync -- *.go | head -100","status":"open","priority":2,"issue_type":"message","created_at":"2025-12-20T22:38:49.242099-08:00","updated_at":"2025-12-20T22:38:49.242099-08:00"}

All health checking, staleness \ndetection, nudging, and escalation belongs in the Deacon molecule where Claude \nexecutes it once per minute.\n\n## The Problem\n\nGo code currently implements polling-based health inference:\n- Daemon watches heartbeats with hardcoded thresholds\n- Decides if agents are \"stuck\" based on timestamps  \n- Sends nudges, triggers restarts\n- Parses mail subjects with regex to extract intent\n\nThis is a ZFC violation. Go should be message transport, not decision-maker.\n\n## The Fix\n\nMove all health/oversight logic to Deacon patrol molecule:\n- Deacon runs once per minute\n- Claude reads molecule steps, executes them\n- Claude decides if agents are stuck (by checking mail, activity, etc.)\n- Claude sends nudges/escalations via mail\n- Go just routes messages\n\n## Scope\n\n1. daemon/daemon.go - heartbeat staleness logic\n2. daemon/backoff.go - exponential backoff decisions\n3. daemon/lifecycle.go - regex parsing of lifecycle intent\n4. keepalive/keepalive.go - staleness thresholds\n5. deacon/heartbeat.go - heartbeat age classification\n6. doctor/stale_check.go - staleness detection\n7. polecat/manager.go - state derivation from issues\n\n## Success Criteria\n\n- Go code has no hardcoded time.Duration for health decisions\n- No regex parsing of mail subjects for intent\n- No switch statements deciding agent state\n- Deacon molecule has all oversight logic\n- Go daemon is just a message router","status":"tombstone","priority":1,"issue_type":"epic","created_at":"2025-12-23T23:58:18.684884-08:00","updated_at":"2025-12-27T21:29:52.754824-08:00","deleted_at":"2025-12-27T21:29:52.754824-08:00","deleted_by":"daemon","delete_reason":"delete","original_type":"epic"}
