Add visual diagram showing Proto → Mol/Wisp → Digest state transitions with the "states of matter" metaphor (crystal → liquid/gas → distillate). Document when to use Mol (durable) vs Wisp (ephemeral) based on audit requirements and work importance.

Gas Town
Multi-agent workspace manager for AI coding agents.
Gas Town coordinates swarms of AI agents working on software projects. Workers (polecats) implement features and fix bugs. Refineries review and merge code. Witnesses manage worker lifecycles. Mayors coordinate across projects.
Install
go install github.com/steveyegge/gastown/cmd/gt@latest
Quick Start
# Create a town (workspace)
gt install ~/gt
# Add a project rig
gt rig add myproject --remote=https://github.com/you/myproject.git
# Spawn a worker on an issue
gt spawn --issue myproject-123
Architecture
Town (~/gt/)
├── Mayor (global coordinator)
└── Rig: myproject
├── Witness (lifecycle manager)
├── Refinery (merge queue)
└── Polecats (workers)
Key Concepts
- Molecules: Structured workflow templates with quality gates and dependencies
- Beads: Unified data plane for issues, messages, and state (github.com/steveyegge/beads)
- Nondeterministic Idempotence: Workflows survive crashes and agent restarts
