PROBLEM: Agents were reading formula files directly and manually creating beads
for each step, rather than using the cook→pour→molecule pipeline.
FIXES:
- polecat-CLAUDE.md: Changed "following the formula" to "work through your
pinned molecule" and added explicit anti-pattern warning
- mol-polecat-work.formula.toml: Added note that formula defines template,
use bd ready to find step beads
- docs/molecules.md: Added "Common Mistake" section with WRONG/RIGHT examples
- mol-*.formula.toml (5 files): Changed "execute this formula" to "work
through molecules (poured from this formula)"
The key insight: Formulas are source templates (like source code). You never
read them directly. The cook → pour pipeline creates step beads for you.
