Fixes#915
`gt convoy check` was failing to detect closed beads in external rig databases,
causing convoys to remain perpetually open despite tracked work being completed.
Changes:
- Modified getTrackedIssues() to parse external:rig:id format and track rig ownership
- Added getExternalIssueDetails() to query external rig databases by running bd show
from the rig directory
- Changed from issueIDs []string to issueRefs []issueRef struct to track both ID and
rig name for each dependency
The fix enables proper cross-rig convoy completion by querying the appropriate database
(town or rig) for each tracked bead's status.
Testing: Verified that convoy hq-cv-u7k7w tracking external:claycantrell:cl-niwe now
correctly detects the closed status and auto-closes the convoy.
The 'gt namepool' command was showing 'mad-max' for all rigs because
it created the pool with defaults instead of loading config. This made
it impossible to see if a rig had custom theme settings.
Load config before creating the pool, matching the logic in manager.go
that actually spawns polecats. Theme and CustomNames come from
settings/config.json, not from the state file.

* fix(witness): detect and ignore stale POLECAT_DONE messages
Add timestamp validation to prevent witness from nuking newly spawned
polecat sessions when processing stale POLECAT_DONE messages from
previous sessions.
- Add isStalePolecatDone() to compare message timestamp vs session created time
- If message timestamp < session created time, message is stale and ignored
- Add unit tests for timestamp parsing and stale detection logic

* feat(mail): add --stale flag to gt mail archive
Add ability to archive stale messages (sent before current session started).
This prevents old messages from cycling forever in patrol inbox.
Changes:
- Add --stale and --dry-run flags to gt mail archive
- Move stale detection helpers to internal/session/stale.go for reuse
- Add ParseAddress to parse mail addresses into AgentIdentity
- Add SessionCreatedAt to get tmux session start time
Usage:
gt mail archive --stale # Archive all stale messages
gt mail archive --stale --dry-run # Preview what would be archived

Two issues fixed:
1. gt hook <convoy-id> now runs bd update from town root, ensuring
proper prefix-based routing for convoys (hq-*) in town beads.
2. gt hook show now also searches town beads for hooked items,
allowing agents to find hooked convoys regardless of their
current workspace location.
This enables the convoy-driver workflow where any agent can hook
a convoy and have it displayed via gt hook show.

* fix(molecule): use Dependencies from bd show instead of empty DependsOn
Bug: Molecule step dependency checking was broken because bd list
doesn't populate the DependsOn field (it's always empty). Only bd show
returns dependency info in the Dependencies field.
This caused all open steps to appear "ready" regardless of actual
dependencies - the polecat would start blocked steps prematurely.
Fix: Call ShowMultiple() after List() to fetch full issue details
including Dependencies, then check Dependencies instead of DependsOn.
Affected functions:
- findNextReadyStep() in molecule_step.go
- getMoleculeProgressInfo() in molecule_status.go
- runMoleculeCurrent() in molecule_status.go
Tests:
- Added TestFindNextReadyStepWithBdListBehavior to verify fix
- Added TestOldBuggyBehavior to demonstrate the bug
- Updated existing tests to use fixed algorithm

When a rig is removed with `gt rig remove`, the route entry in
routes.jsonl was not being cleaned up. This caused problems when
re-adding the rig with a different prefix, resulting in duplicate
entries and prefix mismatch errors.
The fix calls beads.RemoveRoute() during rig removal to clean up
the route entry from routes.jsonl.

When a hooked bead has attached_molecule (formula workflow), the polecat
was being told "run bd show <bead-id>" first, then seeing molecule context
later. The polecat would follow the first instruction and work directly
on the bead, ignoring the formula steps entirely.
Now checks for attached_molecule FIRST and gives different instructions:
- If molecule attached: "Work through molecule steps - see CURRENT STEP"
- If no molecule: "Run bd show <bead-id>"
Also adds explicit warning: "Skip molecule steps or work on base bead directly"
to the DO NOT list when a molecule is attached.

Replace bd create --ephemeral wisp with simple file append to
~/.gt/costs.jsonl. This ensures the stop hook never fails due to:
- Dolt server not running (connection refused)
- Dolt connection stale (invalid connection)
- Database temporarily unavailable
The costs.jsonl approach:
- Stop hook appends JSON line (fire-and-forget, ~0ms)
- gt costs --today reads from log file
- gt costs digest aggregates log entries into permanent beads
This is Option 1 from gt-99ls5z design bead.

When polecats are nuked, Claude child processes could survive and become
orphans, leading to memory exhaustion (observed: 142 orphaned processes
consuming ~56GB RAM).
This commit:
1. Increases the SIGTERM→SIGKILL grace period from 100ms to 2s to give
processes time to clean up gracefully
2. Adds orphan cleanup to `gt polecat nuke` that runs after session
termination to catch any processes that escaped
3. Adds a new `gt cleanup` command for manual orphan removal
The orphan detection uses aggressive tmux session verification to find
ALL Claude processes not in any active session, not just those with
PPID=1.
Fixes: gh-736

Add CleanupOrphanedSessions() function that runs at `gt start` time to
detect and kill zombie tmux sessions (sessions where tmux is alive but
the Claude process has died).
This prevents:
- Session name conflicts when restarting agents
- Resource accumulation from orphaned sessions
- Process accumulation that can overwhelm the system
The function scans for sessions with `gt-*` and `hq-*` prefixes, checks
if Claude is running using IsClaudeRunning(), and kills zombie sessions
using KillSessionWithProcesses() for proper cleanup.

Call beads.EnsureCustomTypes before attempting to create a convoy.
This fixes invalid issue type: convoy errors that occur when town
beads do not have custom types configured (e.g., incomplete install
or manually initialized beads).
The EnsureCustomTypes function uses caching (in-memory + sentinel file)
so this adds negligible overhead to convoy create.

The `gt hooks` command was not discovering settings at:
- <rig>/crew/.claude/settings.json (crew-level, inherited by all members)
- <rig>/polecats/.claude/settings.json (polecats-level)
This caused confusion when debugging hooks since Claude Code inherits
from parent directories, so hooks were executing but not shown by
`gt hooks`.
Also fixed: skip .claude directories when iterating crew members.

This commit adds Windows batch file equivalents for all three tests:

- TestDoneClosesAttachedMolecule
sling_288_test.go:
- TestInstantiateFormulaOnBead

KillPaneProcesses was being called on new sessions before respawn,
which killed the fresh shell and destroyed the pane. This caused
"can't find pane" errors on session creation.
Now KillPaneProcesses is only called when restarting in an existing
session where Claude/Node processes might be running and ignoring
SIGHUP. For new sessions, we just use respawn-pane directly.
Also added retry limit and error checking for the stale session
recovery path.

## Problem
Claude processes were accumulating as orphans, with 100+ processes piling up
daily. Every `gt handoff` (used dozens of times/hour by crew) left orphaned
processes because `tmux respawn-pane -k` only sends SIGHUP, which Node/Claude
ignores.
## Root Cause
Previous fixes (1043f00d, f89ac47f, 2feefd17, 1b036aad) were laser-focused on
specific symptoms (shutdown, setsid, done.go, molecule_step.go) but never did
a comprehensive audit of ALL RespawnPane call sites. handoff.go was never
fixed despite being the main source of orphans.
## Solution
Added KillPaneProcesses() call before every RespawnPane() in:
- handoff.go (self handoff and remote handoff)
- mayor.go (mayor restart)
- crew_at.go (new session and restart)
KillPaneProcesses explicitly kills all descendant processes with SIGTERM/SIGKILL
before respawning, preventing orphans regardless of SIGHUP handling.
molecule_step.go already had this fix from commit 1b036aad.

fix(sling): auto-apply mol-polecat-work (#288) and fix wisp orphan lifecycle bug (#842)
Fixes the formula-on-bead pattern to hook the base bead instead of the wisp:
- Auto-apply mol-polecat-work when slinging bare beads to polecats
- Hook BASE bead with attached_molecule pointing to wisp
- gt done now closes attached molecule before closing hooked bead
- Convoys complete properly when work finishes

Problem:
- Gas Town sets GT_TOWN_ROOT environment variable
- Beads searches for formulas using GT_ROOT environment variable
- This naming inconsistency prevents beads from finding town-level formulas
- Result: `bd mol seed --patrol` fails in rigs, causing false doctor warnings
Solution:
Export both GT_TOWN_ROOT and GT_ROOT from `gt rig detect` command:
- Modified stdout output to export both variables (lines 66, 70)
- Updated cache storage format (lines 134, 136, 138)
- Updated unset statement for both variables (line 110)
- Updated command documentation (lines 33, 37)
Both variables point to the same town root path. This maintains backward
compatibility with Gas Town (GT_TOWN_ROOT) while enabling beads formula
search (GT_ROOT).
Testing:
- `gt rig detect .` now outputs both GT_TOWN_ROOT and GT_ROOT
- `bd mol seed --patrol` works correctly when GT_ROOT is set
- Formula search paths work as expected: town/.beads/formulas/ accessible

- Complements bd mol seed --patrol implementation (beads PR #1149)

When slinging work to an agent, updateAgentHookBead() was running
bd slot set from townRoot. But agent beads with rig-level prefixes
(e.g., go-) live in rig databases, not the town database. This caused

Fix: Use beads.ResolveHookDir() to resolve the correct working directory
based on the agent bead's prefix before calling SetHookBead().

When the repo is in a broken state (wrong branch, detached HEAD, deleted
worktree), gt handoff would fail with "cannot detect town root" error.
This is exactly when handoff is most needed - to recover and hand off
to a fresh session.
Changes:
- detectTownRootFromCwd() now falls back to GT_TOWN_ROOT and GT_ROOT
environment variables when cwd-based detection fails
- buildRestartCommand() now propagates GT_ROOT to ensure subsequent
handoffs can also use the fallback
- Added tests for the fallback behavior

Previously, `gt done` would fail with "0 commits ahead; nothing to merge"
if work was pushed directly to main instead of via PR. This blocked
polecats from completing even when their work was done, causing them to

creation but still completes successfully - notifying the witness,
cleaning up the worktree, and terminating the session.

The quick-add command (used by shell hook's "Add to Gas Town?" prompt)

3. Fall back to ~/gt and ~/gastown
PR #759 introduced cleanupOrphanedClaude() using syscall.Kill directly,
which breaks Windows builds. This extracts the function to:

## Problem
The deacon patrol was leaking claude processes. Every patrol cycle (1-3 minutes),
a new claude process was spawned under the hq-deacon tmux session, but old processes
were never terminated. This resulted in 12+ accumulated claude processes consuming
resources.
## Root Cause
In molecule_step.go:331, handleStepContinue() used tmux respawn-pane -k to restart
the pane between patrol steps. The -k flag sends SIGHUP to the shell but does not
kill all descendant processes (claude and its node children).
## Solution
Added KillPaneProcesses() function in tmux.go that explicitly kills all descendant
processes before respawning the pane. This function:
- Gets all descendant PIDs recursively
- Sends SIGTERM to all (deepest first)
- Waits 100ms for graceful shutdown
- Sends SIGKILL to survivors
Updated handleStepContinue() to call KillPaneProcesses() before RespawnPane().
