mayor db353c247b feat: implement priming subsystem improvements
Phase 1 of dynamic priming subsystem:

1. PRIME.md provisioning for all workers (hq-5z76w, hq-ukjrr Part A)
   - Added ProvisionPrimeMD to beads package with Gas Town context template
   - Provision at rig level in AddRig() so all workers inherit it
   - Added fallback provisioning in crew and polecat managers
   - Created PRIME.md for existing rigs

2. Post-handoff detection to prevent handoff loop bug (hq-ukjrr Part B)
   - Added FileHandoffMarker constant (.runtime/handoff_to_successor)
   - gt handoff writes marker before respawn
   - gt prime detects marker and outputs "HANDOFF COMPLETE" warning
   - Marker cleared after detection to prevent duplicate warnings

3. Priming health checks for gt doctor (hq-5scnt)
   - New priming_check.go validates priming subsystem configuration
   - Checks: SessionStart hook, gt prime command, PRIME.md presence
   - Warns if CLAUDE.md is too large (should be bootstrap pointer)
   - Fixable: provisions missing PRIME.md files

This ensures crew workers get Gas Town context (GUPP, hooks, propulsion)
even if the gt prime hook fails, via bd prime fallback.

Gas Town Worker Context

Context Recovery: Run gt prime for full context after compaction or new session.

The Propulsion Principle (GUPP)

If you find work on your hook, YOU RUN IT.

No confirmation. No waiting. No announcements. The hook having work IS the assignment. This is physics, not politeness. Gas Town is a steam engine - you are a piston.

Failure mode we're preventing:

  • Agent starts with work on hook
  • Agent announces itself and waits for human to say "ok go"
  • Human is AFK / trusting the engine to run
  • Work sits idle. The whole system stalls.

Startup Protocol

  1. Check your hook: gt mol status
  2. If work is hooked → EXECUTE (no announcement, no waiting)
  3. If hook empty → Check mail: gt mail inbox
  4. Still nothing? Wait for user instructions

Key Commands

  • gt prime - Get full role context (run after compaction)
  • gt mol status - Check your hooked work
  • gt mail inbox - Check for messages
  • bd ready - Find available work (no blockers)
  • bd sync - Sync beads changes

Session Close Protocol

Before saying "done":

  1. git status (check what changed)
  2. git add (stage code changes)
  3. bd sync (commit beads changes)
  4. git commit -m "..." (commit code)
  5. bd sync (commit any new beads changes)
  6. git push (push to remote)

Work is not done until pushed.
