When gt spawn creates a polecat, it now sends POLECAT_STARTED notifications
to both Witness and Deacon:
- Witness receives: "POLECAT_STARTED <polecat>" with issue and session info
- Deacon receives: "POLECAT_STARTED <rig>/<polecat>" with issue and session info
This enables:
- Witness to bond a lease to its patrol wisp
- Deacon to verify worker started (redundancy)
- Both to nudge if worker is idle at prompt

Polecats already have synced beads at spawn time (spawn command syncs before
spawning). Multiple polecats starting simultaneously were all trying to sync
the same shared beads, causing git conflicts/failures.

Remove redundant phrases like 'ephemeral wisp' and 'ephemeral molecule'
since wisp already implies ephemeral. Keep 'ephemeral' only where it is
definitional (explaining what wisps are) or contrasting (vs durable mol).

The deacon was being detected as Mayor because it started in ~/gt (town root).
Now starts in ~/gt/deacon/ so gt prime correctly detects RoleDeacon.
Also ensures deacon directory exists on start.
TUI improvements for Christmas launch:
- Add phase transition table and lifecycle diagram to `gt molecule --help`
- Add swarm lifecycle diagram to `gt swarm --help`
- Add mail routing diagram to `gt mail --help`
- Add sling mechanics diagram to `gt sling --help`
- Create Lipgloss table helper (internal/style/table.go)
- Migrate mq_list to use styled tables with color-coded priorities
- Migrate molecule list to use styled tables
- Add fuzzy matching "did you mean" suggestions for polecat not found errors
- Add suggest package with Levenshtein distance implementation

- Create internal/claude package with embedded settings templates
- settings-autonomous.json: gt prime && gt mail check --inject (SessionStart)
- settings-interactive.json: gt prime only (SessionStart)
- Update witness.go: EnsureSettings before session, remove broken gt prime injection
- Update refinery/manager.go: EnsureSettings before session, remove broken NudgeSession
- Update session/manager.go: EnsureSettings for polecats, remove broken issue injection
All autonomous roles (polecat, witness, refinery) now get proper SessionStart hooks
automatically when their sessions are created. No more timing-based gt prime injection.
- Remove 3-second sleep and NudgeSession from spawn.go
(Claude takes 10-20s to initialize, message arrived too early)
- Add trigger-pending-spawns step to deacon patrol molecule
(Deacon polls with WaitForClaudeReady, sends trigger when ready)
- SessionStart hook handles gt prime (internal, reliable)
- Deacon sends minimal 'Begin.' trigger to start polecat working
The spawn command now returns immediately after starting the session.
The deacon's patrol cycle will trigger the polecat when it's ready.
Detects when multiple gt-* tmux sessions share the same pane,
which causes messages sent to one session to appear in another.
This catches the bug where gt-deacon and gt-mayor shared a pane,
causing daemon heartbeats to appear as user input in the Mayor.

Updates crew worker startup to detect and auto-continue attached molecules:
- prime.go: Add outputCrewAttachmentStatus() that detects pinned beads
with attached molecules and outputs "AUTO-CONTINUE MODE" directive
- prime.go: Update startup directive to explain the auto-continue pattern
- crew.md: Add "Session Wisp Model" section documenting autonomous work
Key insight: if attached work exists, continue without awaiting input.
This enables overnight autonomous work on long molecules.

Introduces Proto → Wisp → Mol architecture for agent sessions:
- mol-crew-session: Light harness enabling autonomous overnight work
Key insight: if attached mol exists, continue without awaiting input
- mol-polecat-session: One-shot wisp wrapping polecat work assignments
Handles onboard → execute → cleanup lifecycle
This separates "how to work" (proto) from "what to work on" (mol),
enabling session continuity and autonomous long-mol processing.

When 'gt X attach' is run from inside a tmux session, link the target
session's window as a new tab instead of switching sessions entirely.
Use C-b n/p to navigate between tabs.
Outside tmux: unchanged behavior (full attach)
Inside tmux: links window as tab for convenient multi-session viewing
- Add tmux.LinkWindow() and tmux.IsInsideTmux()
- Update attachToTmuxSession() with smart detection
- Update mayor, deacon, crew, refinery attach commands
Updates mol-polecat-work and polecat.md with comprehensive molecule protocol:
Molecule changes:
- Added exit-decision step as convergence point for all exits
- Four exit types: COMPLETED, BLOCKED, REFACTOR, ESCALATE
- Non-linear jumps allowed from any step to exit-decision
- Dynamic modifications allowed (add steps, file work, refresh)
Polecat role documentation:
- Full molecule protocol section explaining the contract
- Exit strategies with concrete commands
- Wisps vs Molecules comparison for context
- Session continuity for multi-session work
- Updated exit checklist

The Refinery now has a formal patrol molecule with structural enforcement
of the Beads Promise via the handle-failures verification gate.
Changes:
- Add RefineryPatrolMolecule() to builtin_molecules.go with 10 steps
- Add prompts/roles/refinery.md template following deacon/witness pattern
- Update test to expect 9 built-in molecules
Key insight: The handle-failures step is a GATE - you cannot proceed to
merge-push without either fixing the issue or filing a bead. This makes
disavowal structurally impossible, not just philosophically discouraged.
