feat: add llms.txt standard support for AI agent discoverability (#784)
Cherry-picked website/, scripts/generate-llms-full.sh, and deploy-docs.yml from joyshmitz's PR. Fixed workflow to trigger on main branch instead of docs/docusaurus-site. Features: - Docusaurus documentation site with llms.txt support - Environment-variable driven config (defaults to steveyegge org) - Automated llms-full.txt generation from docs - GitHub Pages deployment workflow Co-authored-by: joyshmitz <joyshmitz@users.noreply.github.com> 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Executed-By: beads/crew/dave Rig: beads Role: crew

# Beads Documentation
|
||||
|
||||
**Beads** (`bd`) is a git-backed issue tracker designed for AI-supervised coding workflows.
|
||||
|
||||
## Why Beads?
|
||||
|
||||
Traditional issue trackers (Jira, GitHub Issues) weren't designed for AI agents. Beads was built from the ground up for:
|
||||
|
||||
- **AI-native workflows** - Hash-based IDs prevent collisions when multiple agents work concurrently
|
||||
- **Git-backed storage** - Issues sync via JSONL files, enabling collaboration across branches
|
||||
- **Dependency-aware execution** - `bd ready` shows only unblocked work
|
||||
- **Formula system** - Declarative templates for repeatable workflows
|
||||
- **Multi-agent coordination** - Routing, gates, and molecules for complex workflows
|
||||
|
||||
## Quick Start
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Install via Homebrew (macOS/Linux)
|
||||
brew tap steveyegge/beads
|
||||
brew install bd
|
||||
|
||||
# Initialize in your project
|
||||
cd your-project
|
||||
bd init --quiet
|
||||
|
||||
# Create your first issue
|
||||
bd create "Set up database" -p 1 -t task
|
||||
|
||||
# See ready work
|
||||
bd ready
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Core Concepts
|
||||
|
||||
| Concept | Description |
|
||||
|---------|-------------|
|
||||
| **Issues** | Work items with priorities, types, labels, and dependencies |
|
||||
| **Dependencies** | `blocks`, `parent-child`, `discovered-from`, `related` |
|
||||
| **Daemon** | Background process for auto-sync and performance |
|
||||
| **Formulas** | Declarative workflow templates (TOML or JSON) |
|
||||
| **Molecules** | Work graphs with parent-child relationships |
|
||||
| **Gates** | Async coordination primitives (human, timer, GitHub) |
|
||||
|
||||
## For AI Agents
|
||||
|
||||
Beads is optimized for AI coding agents:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Always use --json for programmatic access
|
||||
bd list --json
|
||||
bd show bd-42 --json
|
||||
|
||||
# Track discovered work during implementation
|
||||
bd create "Found bug in auth" --description="Details..." \
|
||||
--deps discovered-from:bd-100 --json
|
||||
|
||||
# Sync at end of session
|
||||
bd sync
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
See the [Claude Code integration](/integrations/claude-code) for detailed agent instructions.
|
||||
|
||||
## Architecture
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
SQLite DB (.beads/beads.db, gitignored)
|
||||
↕ auto-sync (5s debounce)
|
||||
JSONL (.beads/issues.jsonl, git-tracked)
|
||||
↕ git push/pull
|
||||
Remote JSONL (shared across machines)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The magic is automatic synchronization between a local SQLite database and git-tracked JSONL files.
|
||||
|
||||
## Next Steps
|
||||
|
||||
- [Installation](/getting-started/installation) - Get bd installed
|
||||
- [Quick Start](/getting-started/quickstart) - Create your first issues
|
||||
- [CLI Reference](/cli-reference) - All available commands
|
||||
- [Workflows](/workflows) - Formulas, molecules, and gates
