When slinging work to patrol agents (witness, refinery, deacon), queue via
mail instead of replacing the hook. This preserves patrol continuity.
New behavior:
- Default: Check if patrol is running, start default patrol if not, send
work via mail. Patrol processes queued work during its cycle.
- --urgent: Marks mail as urgent (🚨 URGENT prefix)
- --replace: Legacy behavior, explicitly terminates patrol (break-glass)
New helper functions:
- isPatrolRole(kind): Returns true for witness/refinery/deacon
- getDefaultPatrolMolecule(role): Returns patrol template name
- resolvePatrolMoleculeID(path, title): Looks up beads issue ID by title
- isPatrolRunning(path, addr): Checks if patrol molecule is attached
Note: Patrol spawning currently uses main DB (not wisp storage) because
templates must be looked up from the main database. Wisp support for
patrol instances is a future enhancement.
