parked rig unexpectedly restarts because its parked state was lost.
- Remove references to non-existent .repo.git bare repo

Previously, SetupRedirect used os.RemoveAll() which deleted all files
in .beads/ including tracked files like formulas/, README.md, config.yaml.
Now cleanBeadsRuntimeFiles() selectively removes only gitignored runtime
files (*.db, daemon.*, issues.jsonl, etc.) while preserving tracked content.

Previously `gt doctor --fix` would automatically kill and restart patrol
sessions when fixing stale settings.json files. This was disruptive as it
interrupted work without explicit consent.
Now session cycling only happens when `--restart-sessions` is explicitly
passed along with `--fix`. Without the flag, settings files are updated
but running sessions are left alone.

The isTownLevelSession() function was checking workspace.FindFromCwd()
which fails when gt cycle is invoked via tmux run-shell, since run-shell
executes from whatever directory the tmux server started in (often / or
home), not from within the Gas Town workspace.
Town-level sessions (hq-mayor, hq-deacon) can be identified by their
fixed names alone - no workspace context needed. This fix removes the
unnecessary workspace dependency, allowing C-b n/p to cycle between
Mayor and Deacon sessions as intended.

gt doctor --fix was killing all sessions with stale settings, including
crew and polecats that cannot auto-recover. Now only kills patrol roles
(witness, refinery, deacon, mayor) which the daemon will restart.

When checking if a polecat can be nuked, verify that any hooked bead is
still active (not closed). If the hooked bead was closed externally, the
hook is stale and should not block the nuke.
Also shows 'stale' in dry-run output when hook points to a closed bead.
stale_hooks.go was using hardcoded 'gt-deacon' and 'gt-mayor' instead of
session.DeaconSessionName() and session.MayorSessionName() which return
'hq-deacon' and 'hq-mayor'. This caused incorrect session lookups.
Also fixes duplicate WorktreeAddFromRef method from merge conflict.
Merge artifact - two versions of the method existed. Keep the one
with sparse checkout support.

Deacon is a town-level role, so its beads should be at ctx.TownRoot
(~/gt/.beads/) not ctx.WorkDir (~/gt/deacon/). This fixes the issue
where outputDeaconPatrolContext couldn't find patrol molecules because
it was looking in the wrong location.

verifyBeadExists was setting BEADS_DIR to town root, which overrides
bd's native prefix-based routing via routes.jsonl. This broke resolution
of rig-level beads (e.g., gt-* beads routed via gt- -> gastown/mayor/rig).
Fix:
- Remove BEADS_DIR override in verifyBeadExists
- Set cmd.Dir to town root so bd can find routes.jsonl
- Apply same fix to getBeadInfo for consistency
Now gt sling gt-xxx correctly finds beads using the same routing as
bd show gt-xxx.

Add Status line showing operational state (OPERATIONAL/PARKED/DOCKED)

The state is looked up using the property layer system:
1. Wisp layer (local/ephemeral): .beads-wisp/config/<rig>.json
2. Rig bead labels (global/synced): status:parked or status:docked
3. Default: OPERATIONAL

Implement gt rig dock <rig> and gt rig undock <rig> commands for

- dock: stops witness/refinery, sets status:docked label on rig bead
- undock: removes docked label, allows daemon to restart agents

- Uses rig identity bead labels (synced via git)
- Affects all clones of the rig
- Persists until explicitly undocked

The agent_state field was recording observable state like "running",
"dead", "idle" which violated the "Discover, Don't Track" principle.
This caused stale state bugs where agents were marked "dead" in beads
but actually running in tmux.
Changes:
- Remove daemon's checkStaleAgents() which marked agents "dead"
- Simplify ensureXxxRunning() to use tmux.IsClaudeRunning() directly
- Remove reportAgentState() calls from gt prime and gt handoff
- Add SetHookBead/ClearHookBead helpers that don't update agent_state
- Use ClearHookBead in gt done and gt unsling
- Simplify gt status to derive state from tmux, not bead
Non-observable states (stuck, awaiting-gate, muted, paused) are still
set because they represent intentional agent decisions that can't be
discovered from tmux state.

When the daemon detects that an agent bead state doesn't match tmux
(e.g., bead says stopped but Claude is running), it now:
1. Logs the divergence clearly with STATE DIVERGENCE prefix
2. Nudges the agent with an actionable command to fix its state
3. Still skips the restart (safety - don't kill healthy sessions)
This prevents silent state drift where bead state diverges from reality.
Applied to: Deacon, Witness, Refinery ensure functions.
