+# Claude Code Plugin Testing - Handoff Document
+
+**Status**: Plugin implementation complete, ready for testing
+**Date**: 2025-10-14
+**Session**: Plugin development and version management
+
+## What Was Completed This Session
+
+### 1. Claude Code Plugin (GitHub #28, bd-52)
+✅ Created complete plugin structure in `.claude-plugin/`:
+- `plugin.json` - Metadata with MCP server configuration
+- `marketplace.json` - Local marketplace config
+- 9 slash commands in `commands/`
+- 1 agent in `agents/`
+
+✅ Slash commands implemented:
+- `/bd-ready` - Find ready work
+- `/bd-create` - Create issues interactively
+- `/bd-show` - Show issue details
+- `/bd-update` - Update issues
+- `/bd-close` - Close issues
+- `/bd-workflow` - Show workflow guide
+- `/bd-init` - Initialize beads
+- `/bd-stats` - Project statistics
+- `/bd-version` - Version compatibility checking
+
+✅ Documentation:
+- `PLUGIN.md` - Complete plugin documentation
+- Updated `README.md` with plugin section
+- Updated `examples/README.md`
+
+### 2. Version Management (bd-66, bd-67)
+✅ Fixed version inconsistencies:
+- All components synced to 0.9.2
+- bd CLI, Plugin, MCP server, README, PLUGIN.md
+
+✅ Created `scripts/bump-version.sh`:
+- Automated version syncing across all files
+- Validates semantic versioning
+- Shows diff preview
+- Auto-commit option
+
+✅ Updated `CLAUDE.md`:
+- Added "Version Management" section
+- Instructions for future agents on version bumps
+- Common user phrases to recognize
+
+### 3. Code Review
+✅ Comprehensive review identified and fixed:
+- Commands were in wrong location (moved to `.claude-plugin/`)
+- All issues addressed from review
+
+## What Needs Testing (bd-64)
+
+### Critical Tests
+
+1. **Plugin Installation**
+   ```bash
+   /plugin marketplace add steveyegge/beads
+   /plugin install beads
+   # Restart Claude Code
+   ```
+
+2. **Slash Commands**
+   ```bash
+   /bd-version        # Should show 0.9.2
+   /bd-workflow       # Show workflow
+   /bd-stats          # Project stats
+   /bd-ready          # Find work
+   /bd-create "Test" task 2
+   ```
+
+3. **MCP Server**
+   ```bash
+   /mcp               # Verify 'beads' appears
+   ```
+
+4. **Task Agent**
+   ```bash
+   @task-agent        # If supported
+   ```
+
+### Potential Issues to Watch For
+
+1. **MCP Server Path**
+   - Uses `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}` variable
+   - May need adjustment if not supported
+
+2. **Prerequisites**
+   - Requires `bd` CLI in PATH
+   - Requires `uv` for Python MCP server
+
+3. **Agent Syntax**
+   - Task agent syntax may differ from `@task-agent`
+   - May need adjustment based on Claude Code version
+
+## Important Files for Next Agent
+
+### Key Implementation Files
+- `.claude-plugin/plugin.json` - Plugin metadata
+- `.claude-plugin/commands/*.md` - All 9 slash commands
+- `.claude-plugin/agents/task-agent.md` - Autonomous agent
+- `PLUGIN.md` - Complete documentation
+- `scripts/bump-version.sh` - Version management script
+
+### Key Documentation Files
+- `CLAUDE.md` - **READ THIS FIRST** - Has version management instructions
+- `PLUGIN.md` - Plugin user documentation
+- `scripts/README.md` - Script documentation
+- `bd-64` issue notes - Detailed testing instructions
+
+### Commit History (for context)
+```

+
+## How to Continue
+
+### Immediate Next Steps
+1. Read bd-64 notes (has complete testing instructions)
+2. Install plugin from GitHub
+3. Test all slash commands
+4. Document any issues found
+5. Fix issues or update documentation
+6. Close bd-64 when testing complete
+
+### If Plugin Testing Succeeds
+1. Update bd-64 with test results
+2. Close bd-64
+3. Consider announcing plugin availability
+4. Update PLUGIN.md if any corrections needed
+
+### If Plugin Testing Fails
+1. Document specific failures in bd-64
+2. Create new issues for each problem
+3. Link to bd-64 with `discovered-from`
+4. Fix issues systematically
+5. Retest
+
+## User Context
+
+The user (Steve) is working rapidly on beads, fixing "dozens of major bugs a day" (his words). He wants:
+
+1. **Version Management**: Clear process for version bumps
+   - Just say "bump to X.Y.Z" and agent should use script
+   - All versions must stay in sync
+
+2. **Plugin Testing**: Real-world GitHub installation test
+   - Not local, use `steveyegge/beads` marketplace
+   - Document any issues for iteration
+
+3. **Clean Handoffs**: Each session should leave clear instructions
+   - What was done
+   - What needs doing
+   - How to do it
+
+## Important Notes
+
+### Version Bumping
+When user says any of:
+- "Bump to 0.9.3"
+- "Update version to X.Y.Z"
+- "Rev the project to X.Y.Z"
+- "Increment the version"
+
+**You should:**
+```bash
+./scripts/bump-version.sh X.Y.Z --commit
+git push origin main
+```
+
+See CLAUDE.md "Version Management" section for details.
+
+### Plugin Development Status
+- **Structure**: Complete ✅
+- **Implementation**: Complete ✅
+- **Documentation**: Complete ✅
+- **Testing**: Not started ⏳
+- **Release**: Pending testing results
+
+### Known Limitations
+1. MCP server uses `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}` - may need verification
+2. Task agent syntax untested
+3. Plugin requires separate bd CLI installation
+4. No icon for marketplace (nice-to-have)
+
+## Questions for Testing Agent
+
+While testing, please document:
+1. Did plugin install successfully from GitHub?
+2. Did all slash commands work?
+3. Did MCP server connect?
+4. Were there any error messages?
+5. Is documentation accurate?
+6. What needs improvement?
+
+## Success Criteria
+
+Plugin is ready for users when:
+- ✅ Installs via `/plugin install beads`
+- ✅ All 9 slash commands work
+- ✅ MCP server connects and tools accessible
+- ✅ Version checking works correctly
+- ✅ Documentation is accurate
+- ✅ No major bugs or blocking issues
+
+## Where We Are in the Bigger Picture
+
+This plugin work relates to:
+- **GitHub Issue #28**: Claude Code plugin request
+- **bd-52**: Main plugin epic (now complete)
+- **bd-64**: Testing task (next up)
+- **Goal**: Make beads easy to install and use in Claude Code
+
+The plugin leverages the existing MCP server (integrations/beads-mcp/) which is mature and tested. We're just packaging it nicely for Claude Code users.
+
+---
+
+**Next Agent**: Start by reading bd-64 notes, then test the plugin from GitHub. Good luck! 🚀
