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.
