fix: gardener migration — run-gardener.toml via direct cron, remove legacy scripts (#490)
Rewrite gardener-run.sh as direct cron runner (matching supervisor/planner/
predictor pattern): lock guard, memory check, worktree, tmux session with
Claude sonnet + formulas/run-gardener.toml, phase monitoring, cleanup.
- Delete gardener-poll.sh and gardener-agent.sh (superseded)
- Extract consume_escalation_reply() to lib/formula-session.sh (shared
by gardener and supervisor, eliminates duplicate blocks)
- Update AGENTS.md, gardener/AGENTS.md, lib/AGENTS.md, CI smoke test,
and cross-references

**Trigger**: `gardener-run.sh` runs 4x/day via cron. It creates a tmux
|
|
|
|
|
session with `claude --model sonnet`, injects `formulas/run-gardener.toml`
|
|
|
|
|
with escalation replies as context, monitors the phase file, and cleans up
|
|
|
|
|
on completion or timeout (2h max session). No action issues — the gardener
|
|
|
|
|
runs directly from cron like the planner, predictor, and supervisor.
