Work Decomposition

Overview

Break high-level goals into MEOWs (Molecular Expressions of Work) - the fundamental atomic units in Gas Town. Each MEOW becomes a bead (git-backed work unit) or wisp (ephemeral task).

When to Use

Before creating a convoy
When a goal is too large for a single agent
When parallel execution would benefit progress
When work needs tracked attribution

Process

Analyze the goal and project context
Identify natural seams for decomposition
Create MEOWs with clear boundaries and dependencies
Classify as beads (persistent) or wisps (ephemeral)
Map dependencies between MEOWs
Estimate effort and assign priorities

Decomposition Principles

Each MEOW should be completable by a single agent
Dependencies should form a DAG (no cycles)
Prefer more smaller beads over fewer larger ones
Wisps for throwaway work (scaffolding, exploration)
Every MEOW gets attribution tracking

Tool Use

Invoke via babysitter process: methodologies/gastown/gastown-orchestrator (analyze-work step)
