Formula should verify CHANGELOG completeness by comparing commits since last tag.\n\n2. **Half-done release detection** - CHANGELOG said 0.47.0 but code was 0.46.0. Formula should detect version mismatches upfront.\n\n3. **Dirty working tree handling** - Non-release files (.beads/config.yaml, .claude/settings.json) blocked the bump script. Formula should auto-stash unrelated changes or provide clearer guidance.\n\n4. **Multi-worktree git context** - Commit from wrong directory captured wrong files. Formula should enforce running from correct directory or handle worktrees explicitly.\n\n5. **Branch divergence recovery** - After a botched commit, branch was behind origin. Formula should check for this and guide recovery.\n\n## Suggested Improvements\n\n- Add CHANGELOG completeness check step (compare `git log \u003clast-tag\u003e..HEAD` with CHANGELOG entries)\n- Add version consistency pre-check (detect if CHANGELOG/code/tags are out of sync)\n- Add auto-stash step for non-release files before bump script\n- Add explicit working directory validation for worktree setups\n- Add branch sync verification before and after commits\n\n## Context\nRelease session: 2026-01-11, v0.47.0\nAgent: beads/crew/emma","status":"open","priority":2,"issue_type":"task","owner":"steve.yegge@gmail.com","created_at":"2026-01-11T18:07:20.570809-08:00","created_by":"beads/crew/emma","updated_at":"2026-01-11T18:07:20.570809-08:00"}
