Previously, `gt up` and `gt rig start` would start witnesses and
refineries for parked/docked rigs, bypassing the operational status
protection. Only the daemon respected the wisp config status.
Now both commands check wisp config status before starting agents:
- `gt up` shows "skipped (rig parked)" for parked/docked rigs
- `gt rig start` warns and skips parked/docked rigs
This prevents accidentally bringing parked/docked rigs back online
when running routine commands.

* perf(up): parallelize agent startup with worker pool and channel-based collection
- Run daemon, deacon, mayor, and rig prefetch all in parallel (4-way concurrent init)
- Use fixed worker pool instead of goroutine-per-task for bounded concurrency
- Replace mutex-protected maps with channel-based result collection (zero lock contention)
- Pre-allocate maps with known capacity to reduce allocations
- Use string concatenation instead of fmt.Sprintf for display names
- Reduce `gt up` startup time from ~50s to ~10s for towns with multiple rigs

* feat(refinery,boot): add --agent flag for model selection (hq-7d5m)
Add --agent flag to gt refinery start/attach/restart and gt boot spawn
commands for consistent model selection across all agent launch points.
Implementation follows the existing pattern from gt deacon start:
- Add StringVar flag for agent alias
- Pass override to Manager/Boot via SetAgentOverride()
- Use BuildAgentStartupCommandWithAgentOverride when override is set
Files affected:
- cmd/gt/refinery.go: add flags to start/attach/restart commands
- internal/refinery/manager.go: add SetAgentOverride and use in Start()
- cmd/gt/boot.go: add flag to spawn command
- internal/boot/boot.go: add SetAgentOverride and use in spawnTmux()
Closes#438

* refactor(refinery,boot): use parameter-passing pattern for --agent flag
Address PR review feedback:
1. ADD TESTS: Add tests for --agent flag existence following witness_test.go pattern
- internal/cmd/refinery_test.go: tests for start/attach/restart
- internal/cmd/boot_test.go: test for spawn
2. ALIGN PATTERN: Change from setter pattern to parameter-passing pattern
- Manager.Start(foreground, agentOverride) instead of SetAgentOverride + Start
- Boot.Spawn(agentOverride) instead of SetAgentOverride + Spawn
- Matches witness.go style: Start(foreground bool, agentOverride string, ...)
Updated all callers to pass empty string for default agent:
- internal/daemon/daemon.go
- internal/cmd/rig.go
- internal/cmd/start.go
- internal/cmd/up.go

Extends the --agent flag with a more general --env flag that allows
setting arbitrary environment variables when starting a witness.
Precedence (highest to lowest):
1. CLI --env overrides
2. Role bead env_vars
3. config.AgentEnv() defaults
Examples:
gt witness start greenplace --env ANTHROPIC_MODEL=claude-3-haiku
gt witness restart greenplace --env DEBUG=1 --env VERBOSE=true

The manager refactors (ea8bef2, 72544cc0) conflicted with the agent
override feature, causing regressions:
Deacon (ea8bef2):
- Lost agentOverride parameter
- Re-added respawn loop (removed in 5f2e16f)
- Lost GUPP (startup + propulsion nudges)
Crew (72544cc0):
- Lost agentOverride wiring to StartOptions
- --agent flag had no effect on crew refresh/restart
This fix restores agent override support and GUPP while keeping
improvements from the manager refactors (zombie detection, etc).

Refactors all agent startup paths (witness, refinery, crew, polecat) to use
a consistent Manager interface with Start(), Stop(), IsRunning(), and
SessionName() methods.
Includes:
- Witness manager with GUPP propulsion nudge for startup
- Refinery manager for engineer sessions
- Crew manager for worker agents
- Session/polecat manager updates
- claude_settings_check doctor check for settings validation
- Settings management consolidated from rig/manager.go
- Settings location moved outside source repos to prevent conflicts

Witness and Refinery startup was duplicated across cmd/witness.go, cmd/up.go,
cmd/rig.go, and daemon.go. Worse, not all code paths sent the propulsion nudge
(GUPP - Gas Town Universal Propulsion Principle). Now unified in Manager.Start()
which handles everything including nudges.
Changes:
- witness/manager.go: Full rewrite with session creation, env vars, theming,
WaitForClaudeReady, startup nudge, and propulsion nudge (GUPP)
- refinery/manager.go: Add propulsion nudge sequence after Claude startup
- cmd/witness.go: Simplify to just call mgr.Start(), remove ensureWitnessSession
- cmd/rig.go: Use witness.Manager.Start() instead of inline session creation
- cmd/start.go: Use witness.Manager.Start()
- cmd/up.go: Use witness.Manager.Start(), remove ensureWitness(),
add EnsureSettingsForRole in ensureSession()
- daemon.go: Use witness.Manager.Start() and refinery.Manager.Start() for
unified startup with proper nudges
This ensures all agent startup paths (gt witness start, gt rig boot, gt up,
daemon restarts) consistently apply GUPP propulsion nudges.

Session names `gt-mayor` and `gt-deacon` were hardcoded, causing tmux
session name collisions when running multiple towns simultaneously.
Changed to `gt-{town}-mayor` and `gt-{town}-deacon` format (e.g.,
`gt-ai-mayor`) to allow concurrent multi-town operation.
Key changes:
- session.MayorSessionName() and DeaconSessionName() now take townName param
- Added workspace.GetTownName() helper to load town name from config
- Updated all callers in cmd/, daemon/, doctor/, mail/, rig/, templates/
- Updated tests with new session name format
- Bead IDs remain unchanged (already scoped by .beads/ directory)
Fixes#60🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code)

When Claude starts with --dangerously-skip-permissions, it shows a warning
dialog requiring Down+Enter to accept. This blocked automated polecat and
agent startup.
Added AcceptBypassPermissionsWarning() to tmux package that:
- Checks if the warning dialog is present by capturing pane content
- Only sends Down+Enter if "Bypass Permissions mode" text is found
- Avoids interfering with sessions that don't show the warning
Updated all Claude startup locations:
- session/manager.go (polecat sessions)
- cmd/up.go (mayor, witness, crew, polecat cold starts)
- daemon/daemon.go (crashed polecat restarts)
- daemon/lifecycle.go (role session starts)
Add RuntimeConfig type to RigSettings allowing per-rig LLM runtime
configuration. This moves hardcoded "claude --dangerously-skip-permissions"
invocations to configurable settings.
Changes:
- Add RuntimeConfig type with Command, Args, InitialPrompt fields
- Add BuildCommand() and BuildCommandWithPrompt() methods
- Add helper functions: LoadRuntimeConfig, BuildAgentStartupCommand,
BuildPolecatStartupCommand, BuildCrewStartupCommand
- Update startup paths in up.go and mayor.go to use new config
- Add comprehensive tests for RuntimeConfig functionality
Remaining hardcoded invocations can be updated incrementally.

Inject an identity beacon as the first message when Gas Town starts Claude
sessions. This beacon becomes the session title in Claude Code '/resume
picker, enabling workers to find their predecessor sessions for debugging.
Beacon format: [GAS TOWN] <address> • <mol-id or "ready"> • <timestamp>
Examples:
- [GAS TOWN] gastown/crew/max • gt-abc12 • 2025-12-30T14:32
- [GAS TOWN] gastown/polecats/Toast • ready • 2025-12-30T09:15
- [GAS TOWN] deacon • patrol • 2025-12-30T08:00
Workers can now press / in /resume picker and search for their address
(e.g., "gastown/crew/max") to see all predecessor sessions.
Note: Respawn-loop agents (deacon/refinery via up.go) skip beacon injection
since Claude restarts multiple times - would need post-restart injection.

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 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.

Part of Christmas launch wisp terminology unification.
New commands:
- `gt up` - Idempotent boot command that brings up all services:
Daemon, Deacon, Mayor, and Witnesses for all rigs
- `gt down` - Graceful shutdown of all services
Doctor improvements:
- New daemon check verifies daemon is running
- Fixable with `gt doctor --fix` to auto-start daemon
The system can run degraded (any services down) but `gt up` ensures
a fully operational Gas Town with one idempotent command.
