Boot is spawned by the daemon as the Deacons watchdog. During shutdown
Boot was never explicitly stopped. Now gt down stops Boot between Mayor

Parent commands (mol, mail, crew, polecat, etc.) previously showed help

Added requireSubcommand() helper to root.go and applied it to all parent

Examples:
gt crew add murgen croaker goblin # Create all three
gt crew add dave # Still works for single
- Continues on failure (warns but doesn't abort)
- Shows summary at end
- Existing workspaces skipped with warning
- Rig add now creates empty crew/ directory with README
- Crew members must be added explicitly with 'gt crew add <name>'
- Removed --crew flag from rig add command
- Updated help text and output to reflect new behavior
This gives users control over crew member names rather than defaulting to 'max'.
Agents weren't auto-executing after gt handoff because the SessionStart
hook only outputs text - it doesn't inject a prompt. Claude needs actual
user input to trigger a response.
The fix: pass "gt prime" as an argument to claude, just like gt crew at
already does. This treats the argument as the first user prompt, which
triggers GUPP execution immediately.

- Add DefaultBranch() method to git package to detect repo's default branch
- Store default_branch in rig config.json
- Use detected branch for refinery worktree instead of hardcoding 'main'
- Add LoadRigConfig() to read rig config
- Display correct branch name in rig add output
Fixes wyvern rig creation (uses 'master' not 'main').
Agent beads must use gt- prefix (required by beads validation).
Only issue beads use rig-specific prefixes (ga-, bd-, etc.).
Fixed in:
- crew_add.go: Use CrewBeadID() not CrewBeadIDWithPrefix()
- prime.go: Use non-prefix variants for all agent types
- sling.go: Use non-prefix variants for all agent types
This fixes 'invalid agent ID' error when creating crew in rigs
with non-gt prefix (e.g., gastown with ga- prefix).

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.

When spawning polecats in rigs with custom prefixes (e.g., beads uses bd-
instead of gt-), agent beads were being created with hardcoded gt- prefix,
causing warnings like issue ID gt-beads-polecat-obsidian does not match
configured prefix bd.
Changes:
- polecat/manager.go: agentBeadID() now looks up the rigs configured prefix
from routes.jsonl via beads.GetPrefixForRig()
- prime.go: getAgentBeadID() now uses prefix lookup for rig-level agents
(witness, refinery, polecat, crew)
Town-level agents (mayor, deacon) continue to use gt- prefix as expected.
The --notify flag on gt convoy create was captured but never used.
This fix:
1. Stores the notify address in a bd slot when convoy is created
2. Adds 'gt convoy notify <convoy-id>' command that:
- Reads the notify slot
- Sends mail to the configured address with convoy completion details
- Does nothing gracefully if no notification was configured
The convoy-cleanup formula can now call 'gt convoy notify {{convoy}}'
to trigger the configured notification when a convoy completes.

Boot is a watchdog that the daemon pokes instead of Deacon directly,
centralizing the 'when to wake Deacon' decision in an agent that can
reason about context.
Key changes:
- Add internal/boot package with marker file and status tracking
- Add gt boot commands: status, spawn, triage
- Add mol-boot-triage formula for Boot's triage cycle
- Modify daemon to call ensureBootRunning instead of ensureDeaconRunning
- Add tmux.IsAvailable() for degraded mode detection
- Add boot.md.tmpl role template
Boot lifecycle:
1. Daemon tick spawns Boot (fresh each time)
2. Boot runs triage: observe, decide, act
3. Boot cleans stale handoffs from Deacon inbox
4. Boot exits (or handoffs in non-degraded mode)
In degraded mode (no tmux), Boot runs mechanical triage directly.
