If you're asking about stone cleanup in the KGS tournaments, then yes,
there is a special phase. See Nick Wedd's site for full details.
Here's the basics:
1. Play normally until two passes
2. Respond to final_status_list dead
[done if opponent supports final_status_list dead and there is
agreement on dead stones]
3. Handle undo to resume game, or have an appropriate time buffer to
handle game replay.
4. Capture all dead stones, play continues until both bots pass again
(all stones marked alive. KGS will send kgs-genmove_cleanup instead of
genmove if supported)
Support for #2 is optional, but is strongly encouraged.

I realize that most games in the KGS computer tournaments end in
resignation, but just in case:
Is there a phase for removing dead stones (as in games with humans),
or are dead stones supposed to be captured (as in MC playouts)?
