Why we included this project

If you've ever watched a handful of coding agents lose their context the moment a session ends, Gas Town is built for exactly that pain. It is a workspace manager that keeps multiple AI coding agents (Claude Code, Copilot, Codex, Gemini) coordinated and their work state durable, so a restart doesn't wipe out what an agent was doing. The design is opinionated and concrete: a Mayor coordinator agent, per-project rigs, worker agents with persistent identity but ephemeral sessions, and git-worktree-backed hooks that survive crashes. Beyond basic orchestration it adds genuinely useful operational machinery: a merge queue with verification gates, a watchdog tier that detects stuck agents, severity-routed escalation, and a scheduler that throttles dispatch to avoid rate-limit exhaustion. Teams running more than a few agents on real repositories will find the persistence and supervision layers worth studying, and the documentation explains the role taxonomy clearly enough to adapt the ideas even if you don't adopt the whole system.
