Instead of just showing unread count, display truncated subject of first unread message directly in the status bar. More useful than click-to-view since terminal mouse support varies. - Mayor: 20 char limit for subject preview - Worker (crew/polecat): 25 char limit - Falls back to count if subject unavailable 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
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
