Replace hook file mechanism with discovery-based pinned beads:
- gt hook: now runs bd update <bead> --status=pinned
- gt sling: same, plus nudge to target
- gt handoff: same when bead ID provided
- gt prime: checks pinned beads instead of hook files
- gt mol status: no longer checks hook files
Key changes:
- outputAttachmentStatus: extended to all roles (was Crew/Polecat only)
- checkSlungWork: now queries pinned beads instead of reading hook files
- wisp/io.go functions: marked deprecated with migration notes
This follows Gas Town discovery over explicit state principle.
Hook files are kept for backward compatibility but no longer written.

When `gt sling <bead> <rig>` is used with a rig name as target, sling now
automatically spawns a fresh polecat and slings work to it. This provides
a simpler alternative to `gt spawn --issue <bead> <rig>` for quick dispatch.
Changes:
- Add IsRigName() helper to detect bare rig names
- Add SpawnPolecatForSling() for lightweight polecat creation
- Update sling to detect rig targets and auto-spawn
- Update help text for both sling and spawn to document behavior
Design: spawn and sling remain distinct commands with different purposes:
- sling: Light spawn with hook + nudge (quick dispatch)
- spawn: Full workflow with mol-polecat-work, mail, witness notification

- Add Args field to SlungWork struct in wisp/types.go
- Add --args/-a flag to gt sling command
- Display args in gt prime autonomous mode
- Display args in gt mol status output
The --args string is stored in the hook and shown to the LLM executor,
which interprets the instructions naturally without schema maintenance.
Example: gt sling beads-release --args "patch release"

Replace SendKeys approach with respawn-pane -k when starting Claude
in crew sessions. This gives cleaner exit behavior:
- Before: Claude exits → shell prompt → exit shell → session ends
- After: Claude exits → session ends (no intermediate shell)
Changes:
- Add GetPaneID() to tmux package for pane ID retrieval
- Update crew_at.go to use RespawnPane for both new and restart cases
- Remove unnecessary waits and multi-step Claude startup

Implements the canonical way for polecats to complete molecule steps:
1. Closes the completed step (bd close)
2. Extracts molecule ID from step ID (gt-xxx.1 -> gt-xxx)
3. Finds next ready step (dependency-aware)
4. If next step: updates hook and respawns pane
5. If complete: burns hook and signals witness
This enables instant step transitions (~5-10s) vs waiting for witness
patrol cycles (minutes), and ensures the activity feed stays accurate.

Implements agent parking and resumption on gates:

- gt resume: Checks for cleared gates and restores work
- gt gate wake: Sends wake mail to waiters when gate closes
These commands enable agents to safely suspend work while waiting
for external conditions (timers, CI, human approval) and resume
when gates clear.

All 156 instances of _ = error suppression in non-test code now have
explanatory comments documenting why the error is intentionally ignored.
Categories of intentional suppressions:
- non-fatal: session works without these - tmux environment setup
- non-fatal: theming failure does not affect operation - visual styling
- best-effort cleanup - defer cleanup on failure paths
- best-effort notification - mail/notifications that should not block
- best-effort interrupt - graceful shutdown attempts
- crypto/rand.Read only fails on broken system - random ID generation
- output errors non-actionable - fmt.Fprint to io.Writer
This addresses the silent failure and debugging concerns raised in the
issue by making the intentionality explicit in the code.

When first arg is a formula (not a bead), sling now:
1. Cooks the formula (bd cook)
2. Creates a wisp instance (bd wisp)
3. Attaches the wisp to the target hook
4. Nudges the target to start
New flags:
- --var key=value: Pass variables to formula (repeatable)

The daemon now calls triggerPendingSpawns() on each heartbeat, which:
- Checks for POLECAT_STARTED messages in Deacon inbox
- Polls pending spawns with WaitForClaudeReady (2s timeout)
- Nudges ready polecats with Begin message
- Prunes stale pending spawns (>5 min old)
This ensures polecats get triggered even when Deacon is not in an
active patrol cycle. Uses bootstrap mode regex detection which
is acceptable for daemon operations.

Templates now instruct agents to discover steps at runtime via
bd ready / bd show instead of listing steps inline. This prevents
duplication between templates and formula YAML.
When recreating a polecat worktree, the branch deletion might fail
silently, leaving a stale branch with old commits. The worktree would
then be created from this stale branch, missing recent main changes.
Fix:
- Add ResetBranch() method to git package for force-updating branches
- Fetch from origin before recreation to ensure fresh commits
- If branch deletion fails, force-reset the branch to origin/main
- This ensures polecats always start with the latest code
Discovered during gt-8tmz swarm when nux polecat was missing the
internal/formula/ directory that was added after its branch diverged.

The crew add command was not parsing rig/name format (e.g., "beads/emma"),
which caused nested directories like crew/beads/emma to be created instead
of properly routing to the beads rig.
Now `gt crew add beads/emma` from any directory correctly creates the crew
workspace in the beads rig at beads/crew/emma/.

When gt spawns agents (polecats, crew, patrol roles), it now sets the
BD_ACTOR env var so that bd commands (like `bd hook`) know the agent
identity without coupling to gt.
Updated spawn points:
- gt up (mayor, deacon, witness via ensureSession/ensureWitness)
- gt deacon start
- gt witness start
- gt start refinery
- gt mayor start
- Daemon deacon restart
- Daemon lifecycle restart
- Handoff respawn
- Refinery manager start
BD_ACTOR uses slash format (e.g., gastown/witness, gastown/crew/max)
while GT_ROLE may use dash format internally.
