Convoy Management
Overview
Manage the full lifecycle of Gas Town convoys: creation from a goal, bead decomposition, agent assignment, progress tracking, and landing (merge). Convoys are the primary work-order unit wrapping related beads.
When to Use
- Starting a new multi-agent work effort
- Coordinating parallel bead execution across agents
- Tracking progress of distributed work
- Landing (merging) completed convoy results
Process
- Create convoy from goal or MEOW decomposition
- Decompose into beads (persistent) and wisps (ephemeral)
- Assign beads to Crew (long-lived) or Polecats (transient)
- Track progress via hooks and heartbeats
- Verify all beads complete with quality checks
- Land convoy by merging bead branches
Key Concepts
- Convoy: Primary work-order wrapping related beads
- Bead: Git-backed atomic work unit (issue/task)
- Wisp: Ephemeral bead destroyed after successful run
- GUPP: If there is work on your Hook, YOU MUST RUN IT
