docs: clarify worktree architecture and beads routing

- Remove references to non-existent .repo.git bare repo
- Clarify that polecats/refinery are worktrees from mayor/rig
- Clarify that crew/* are full clones for human developers
- Update routes.jsonl examples to match actual format
- Add explanation of why routes point to mayor/rig

+### Worktree Architecture
+
+Polecats and refinery are git worktrees, not full clones. This enables fast spawning
+and shared object storage. The worktree base is `mayor/rig`:
+
+```go
+// From polecat/manager.go - worktrees are based on mayor/rig
+git worktree add -b polecat/<name>-<timestamp> polecats/<name>
+```
+
+Crew workspaces (`crew/<name>/`) are full git clones for human developers who need
+independent repos. Polecats are ephemeral and benefit from worktree efficiency.
+
 ## Beads Routing
 
-The `routes.jsonl` file maps issue ID prefixes to their storage locations:
+The `routes.jsonl` file maps issue ID prefixes to rig locations (relative to town root):
 
 ```jsonl
-{"prefix":"hq","path":"/Users/stevey/gt/.beads"}
-{"prefix":"gt","path":"/Users/stevey/gt/gastown/mayor/rig/.beads"}
+{"prefix":"hq-","path":"."}
+{"prefix":"gt-","path":"gastown/mayor/rig"}
+{"prefix":"bd-","path":"beads/mayor/rig"}
 ```
 
+Routes point to `mayor/rig` because that's where the canonical `.beads/` lives.
 This enables transparent cross-rig beads operations:
 
 ```bash
-bd show hq-mayor    # Routes to town beads
-bd show gt-xyz      # Routes to gastown rig beads
+bd show hq-mayor    # Routes to town beads (~/.gt/.beads)
+bd show gt-xyz      # Routes to gastown/mayor/rig/.beads
 ```
