When creating a polecat worktree, create a .beads/redirect file pointing
to the rig-level shared beads database. This eliminates git sync overhead
between polecats - they all connect to the same daemon and database.
Architecture:
gastown/
.beads/ <- Shared database (created if missing)
polecats/
nux/
.beads/
redirect <- Contains "../../.beads"

- Add gt-zhpa epic: VC Pattern Integration (6 child tasks)
Extracted validated ideas from ~/src/vc that map to Gas Town primitives
- Close gt-5af: Deacon epic as over-engineered
Problem solved by hooks + gt prime
- Create lightweight successors:
- gt-htto: Heartbeat convention
- gt-bnch: Human escalation
- Disable beads MCP plugin for Gas Town
CLI works; MCP adds complexity without value

Crew workers are trusted maintainers who push directly to main:
- Own their clones (no isolation needed)
- Fast work cycles (10-15 min) make branch overhead wasteful
- Branches go stale with context cycling
- Polecats use branches/MRs; crew does not need review
Also updated two-level beads docs (removed stale rig-level references).

- molecule.go: Use findLocalBeadsDir() for project-level beads
- statusline.go: Use findMailWorkDir() for mail count (town beads)
Part of two-level beads architecture cleanup.

Replace complex address-based routing with simple town root lookup.
All mail goes to ~/gt/.beads/ (town beads), eliminating the broken
rig-level routing.
Two-level model:
- Town beads (~/gt/.beads/): ALL mail and coordination
- Clone beads (<rig>/crew/*/.beads/): Project issues only
Fixes: gt-4qey

Add Pinned field to BeadsMessage and sort pinned messages before
unpinned ones in listBeads(). Within each group, sort by newest first.

Replace `bd mail send/inbox/read/ack` commands with `bd create/list/show/close`.
This separates the orchestration layer (gt) from the data plane (beads).
Changes:
- router.go: Use `bd create --type=message` instead of `bd mail send`
- mailbox.go: Use `bd list --type=message` and `bd show` for inbox/read
- types.go: Parse metadata from labels (from:, thread:, reply-to:)
- mail.go: Fix findBeadsWorkDir to prefer rig-level beads, fix crew address format
Messages are now stored as beads issues with type=message. Metadata (sender,
thread, reply-to) is stored in labels for retrieval.
