- Remove unused workDir field from witness manager
- Use witMgr.IsRunning() consistently instead of direct tmux call

Remove state files from witness and refinery managers, following
the "Discover, Don't Track" principle. Tmux session existence is
now the source of truth for running state (like deacon).
Changes:
- Add IsRunning() that checks tmux HasSession
- Change Status() to return *tmux.SessionInfo
- Remove loadState/saveState/stateManager
- Simplify Start()/Stop() to not use state files
- Update CLI commands (witness/refinery/rig) for new API
- Update tests to be ZFC-compliant
This fixes state file divergence issues where witness/refinery
could show "running" when the actual tmux session was dead.

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.

ReconcilePool now detects and kills orphan tmux sessions (sessions without
corresponding polecat directories). This prevents allocation from being
blocked by broken state from crashed polecats.
Changes:
- Add tmux to Manager to check for orphan sessions during reconciliation
- Add ReconcilePoolWith for testable session/directory reconciliation logic
- Always clear hook_bead slot when reopening agent beads (fixes stale hooks)
- Prune stale git worktree entries during reconciliation

* 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

- Create mayor.Manager for mayor lifecycle (Start/Stop/IsRunning/Status)
- Create deacon.Manager for deacon lifecycle with respawn loop
- Move session.Manager to polecat.SessionManager (clearer naming)
- Add zombie session detection for mayor/deacon (kills tmux if Claude dead)
- Remove duplicate session startup code from up.go, start.go, mayor.go
- Rename sessMgr -> polecatMgr for consistency
- Make witness/refinery SessionName() public for status display
All agent types now follow the same Manager pattern:
mgr := agent.NewManager(...)
mgr.Start(...)
mgr.Stop()
mgr.IsRunning()
mgr.Status()

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

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.

Add --branch flag to `gt rig add` to specify a custom default branch
instead of auto-detecting from remote. This supports repositories that
use non-standard default branches like `develop` or `release`.
Changes:
- Add --branch flag to `gt rig add` command
- Store default_branch in rig config.json
- Propagate default branch to refinery, witness, daemon, and all commands
- Rename ensureMainBranch to ensureDefaultBranch for clarity
- Add Rig.DefaultBranch() method for consistent access
- Update crew/manager.go and swarm/manager.go to use rig config
Based on PR #49 by @kustrun - rebased and extended with additional fixes.

Route to the correct beads location based on whether the source repo

Add new `gt rig stop <rig>...` command that supports stopping multiple rigs

- Checks for uncommitted work before shutdown (unless --nuclear)
Includes --force flag for immediate shutdown and --nuclear flag to bypass

`gt rig add` no longer takes in a flag for --remote its just the
parameter of the github url.
`gt crew add` requires a --rig but the instructions don't specify the
flag
Parent commands (mol, mail, crew, polecat, etc.) previously showed help
and exited 0 for unknown subcommands like "gt mol foobar". This masked
errors in scripts and confused users.
Added requireSubcommand() helper to root.go and applied it to all parent
commands. Now unknown subcommands properly error with exit code 1.
Example before: gt mol unhook → shows help, exits 0
Example after: gt mol unhook → "Error: unknown command "unhook"", exits 1

- 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'.
- 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').
Using "greenplace" (The Green Place from Mad Max: Fury Road) as the
canonical example project/rig name in documentation and help text.
This provides a clearer distinction from the actual gastown repo name.
Changes:
- docs/*.md: Updated all example paths and commands
- internal/cmd/*.go: Updated help text examples
- internal/templates/: Updated example references
- Tests: Updated to use greenplace in example session names
Note: Import paths (github.com/steveyegge/gastown) and actual code
paths referencing the gastown repo structure are unchanged.

Inverse of 'gt rig shutdown'. Starts rig patrol agents:
- Checks tmux sessions to avoid duplicates
- Starts witness if not running
- Starts refinery if not running
- Reports what was started vs skipped
Also adds ProcessExists util function needed by witness/refinery managers.
- Add internal/beads/routes.go with helpers to manage routes.jsonl
- Update gt rig add to auto-append routes for new rigs
- Add prefix-conflict check to gt doctor
bd already has prefix routing via routes.jsonl - this wires up
Gas Town to maintain routes when rigs are added and detect conflicts.
