Use: "sling <bead-or-formula> [target]",
GroupID: GroupWork,
Short: "Assign work to an agent (THE unified work dispatch command)",
Long: `Sling work onto an agent's hook and start working immediately.
This is THE command for assigning work in Gas Town. It handles:
- Existing agents (mayor, crew, witness, refinery)
- Auto-spawning polecats when target is a rig
- Formula instantiation and wisp creation
- No-tmux mode for manual agent operation
Target Resolution:
gt sling gt-abc # Self (current agent)
gt sling gt-abc crew # Crew worker in current rig
gt sling gt-abc gastown # Auto-spawn polecat in rig
gt sling gt-abc gastown/Toast # Specific polecat
gt sling gt-abc mayor # Mayor
Spawning Options (when target is a rig):
gt sling gt-abc gastown --molecule mol-review # Use specific workflow
gt sling gt-abc gastown --create # Create polecat if missing
gt sling gt-abc gastown --naked # No-tmux (manual start)
gt sling gt-abc gastown --force # Ignore unread mail
gt sling gt-abc gastown --account work # Use specific Claude account
Natural Language Args:
gt sling gt-abc --args "patch release"
gt sling code-review --args "focus on security"
The --args string is stored in the bead and shown via gt prime. Since the
executor is an LLM, it interprets these instructions naturally.
Formula Slinging:
gt sling mol-release mayor/ # Cook + wisp + attach + nudge
gt sling towers-of-hanoi --var disks=3
Formula-on-Bead (--on flag):
gt sling mol-review --on gt-abc # Apply formula to existing work
gt sling shiny --on gt-abc crew # Apply formula, sling to crew
Compare:
gt hook <bead> # Just attach (no action)
gt sling <bead> # Attach + start now (keep context)
gt handoff <bead> # Attach + restart (fresh context)
The propulsion principle: if it's on your hook, YOU RUN IT.`,
