# Patrol Monitoring ## Overview Continuous monitoring using Gas Town's Deacon/Witness pattern. The Deacon supervises overall health, the Witness manages per-rig agent lifecycle, and the Boot (Dog) watches the Deacon itself. ## When to Use - During active convoy execution - 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`
