Defines the standard polecat work lifecycle molecule with 8 steps:
- load-context: Load context and verify assignment
- implement: Do the work, file discovered issues
- self-review: Review changes for bugs and issues
- verify-tests: Run tests, add new ones as needed
- rebase-main: Rebase against main
- submit-merge: Submit to merge queue
- update-handoff: Update handoff state
- request-shutdown: Request witness termination
This molecule enables nondeterministic idempotence for polecat work.
Crash recovery is automatic - restart reads molecule state and continues
from the last completed step.
