When `gt mq submit` is run from a polecat work branch (polecat/<worker>/<issue>), it now automatically triggers polecat shutdown after submitting the MR. The polecat sends a lifecycle request to its Witness and waits for termination. This eliminates the need for polecats to manually run `gt handoff --shutdown` after completing work - they can just run `gt mq submit` and the cleanup happens automatically. Added `--no-cleanup` flag to disable auto-cleanup when needed (e.g., for submitting multiple MRs or continuing work).

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

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
