- When agents may become stuck or unresponsive
- For long-running multi-agent workflows
- When automated recovery is desired
Process
1. **Health check** all active agents and convoys 2. **Detect** stuck or unresponsive agents via heartbeats 3. **Recover** - restart, reassign, or escalate as needed 4. **Report** patrol findings with trend analysis
Monitoring Roles
- **Deacon**: Daemon supervisor, monitors overall health
- **Witness**: Per-rig lifecycle manager for workers
- **Boot (Dog)**: Watches the Deacon every 5 minutes
Recovery Modes
- **restart**: Restart the stuck agent session
- **reassign**: Move beads to a different agent
- **escalate**: Alert human for manual intervention
Tool Use
Invoke via babysitter process: `methodologies/gastown/gastown-patrol`
Ships withbabysitter
Enforce obedience on agentic workforces. Manage extremely complex workflows through deterministic, hallucination-free self-orchestration.
