Steve Yegge 86625df15d docs: eliminate Swarm ID concept, adopt stream model
Key Decision #11 renamed from "Beads as Swarm State" to "Work is a Stream
(No Swarm IDs)". Work flows through the system as a continuous stream:

- The epic IS the grouping (no separate swarm ID)
- The merge queue IS the coordination (no batch boundaries)
- Workers process issues independently (add/remove anytime)
- Dependencies provide sequencing (multi-wave emerges naturally)

Updated sections:
- Introduction: Added key insight about stream model
- Work Dispatch: Renamed from "Swarm Dispatch", updated diagram
- Multi-Wave Work Processing: Renamed from "Multi-Wave Swarms"
- Key Decision #11: Full rewrite explaining stream model
- Various terminology updates throughout

This aligns with the vision that Gas Town manages work as a stream,
not as discrete batches requiring explicit start/end boundaries.

Gastown (Go)

Go port of Gas Town - a multi-agent workspace manager.

Status

Work in Progress - This is the Go rewrite of the Python gastown tool.

See the Python version for current functionality.

Goals

  • Single binary installation (gt)
  • Self-diagnosing (gt doctor)
  • Federation support (coordinate agents across VMs)
  • Performance improvements over Python version

Development

# Build
go build -o gt ./cmd/gt

# Run
./gt --help
