Polecats have exactly three operating conditions - there is no idle pool:
- Working: session active, doing assigned work
- Stalled: session stopped unexpectedly, never nudged back
- Zombie: gt done called but cleanup failed
Key clarifications:
- These are SESSION states; polecat identity persists across sessions
- "Stalled" and "zombie" are detected conditions, not stored states
- The status:idle label only applies to persistent agents, not polecats

Design doc for Gas Town account management feature enabling users to
switch between multiple Claude Code accounts (e.g., personal vs work).
Key decisions:
- Uses CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR env var as core mechanism
- Config stored in ~/gt/mayor/accounts.yaml (follows town config pattern)
- NOT in Beads (config, not work items)
- NOT molecules (mechanical, not cognitive)
- Extensible for API keys, per-role defaults, federation

- Per-rig color themes auto-assigned via consistent hashing

- gt theme apply: apply to running sessions
- gt issue set/clear: agents update their current issue
- gt status-line: internal command for tmux refresh
Status bar format:
- Left: [rig/worker] role
