When creating issues with explicit IDs like `bd create --id hq-cv-test`,
the prefix validation was failing even when `hq-cv` was in `allowed_prefixes`.
Root cause: `ExtractIssuePrefix("hq-cv-test")` returns `"hq"` (not `"hq-cv"`)
because "test" looks like an English word, causing the algorithm to fall back
to the first hyphen. The validation then checked if `"hq"` was in the allowed
list containing `"hq-cv"` - which failed.
The fix adds `ValidateIDPrefixAllowed()` which validates the full ID using
"starts with" matching (the same approach the importer uses successfully).
This correctly handles multi-hyphen prefixes like `hq-cv-` regardless of
what the suffix looks like.

When ExtractIssuePrefix returns "hq" from an ID like "hq-cv-test"
(because "test" is word-like), but "hq-cv" is in allowedPrefixes,
we should accept "hq" since it's clearly intended to be part of "hq-cv".
This handles cases where the prefix extraction algorithm yields a
shorter prefix than the user intended, but the full intended prefix
is in the allowed list.

The generic ValidateIDFormat() used isLikelyHash() which treated
3-character suffixes like "nux" as valid hashes, causing agent IDs
like "nx-nexus-polecat-nux" to extract prefix as "nx-nexus-polecat"
instead of the correct "nx".
Fix: For --type=agent, validate agent ID format first and use
ExtractAgentPrefix() which correctly extracts prefix from the
first hyphen for agent IDs.

Support --type enhancement as an alias for --type feature when creating
issues. The normalization happens before validation to ensure consistency
across all code paths.

* test(validation): add failing tests for hyphenated prefix parsing
Reproduces bug where `bd create --parent` fails for projects with
hyphenated prefixes like "bead-me-up" or "web-app".
Root cause: ValidateIDFormat splits on first hyphen, so:
"bead-me-up-3e9.1" → prefix "bead" (wrong, should be "bead-me-up")
The bug flow in create.go:
1. User runs: bd create "Child" --parent bead-me-up-3e9
2. GetNextChildID generates: bead-me-up-3e9.1
3. ValidateIDFormat extracts: "bead" (splits at first hyphen)
4. ValidatePrefix compares: "bead" vs "bead-me-up" → MISMATCH
Tests added:
- TestValidateIDFormat: 6 cases for hyphenated prefix IDs
- TestValidateIDFormat_ParentChildFlow: simulates exact --parent flow,
showing simple prefixes pass while hyphenated prefixes fail
Workaround: use --force flag to bypass prefix validation.
* fix(validation): support hyphenated prefixes in ValidateIDFormat
Use utils.ExtractIssuePrefix instead of naive first-hyphen splitting.
This fixes bd create --parent failing for projects with hyphenated
prefixes like "bead-me-up" or "web-app".
Before: "bead-me-up-3e9" → prefix "bead" (wrong)
After: "bead-me-up-3e9" → prefix "bead-me-up" (correct)
ExtractIssuePrefix uses smart heuristics: split on last hyphen,
check if suffix is hash-like (3-8 chars, alphanumeric, digits for 4+).
* Update internal/validation/bead_test.go

feat: add multi-prefix support via allowed_prefixes config
Adds support for allowing multiple prefixes in a beads database via the
allowed_prefixes config key. This is needed for Gas Town which uses different
prefixes for different purposes (hq-, gt-, rig-specific prefixes).
Usage: bd config set allowed_prefixes "gt,hq,hmc"

Rewrites ValidateAgentID to scan right-to-left for known role tokens
instead of relying on fixed position parsing. This allows rig names
containing hyphens (e.g., ob-my-project-witness).

The ValidateAgentID function was hardcoded to only accept 'gt-' prefix,
but beads rig uses 'bd-' prefix. Now accepts any valid prefix.
Changes:
- Extract prefix dynamically instead of hardcoding 'gt-'
- Accept IDs like bd-mayor, bd-beads-polecat-pearl
- Update error messages to be prefix-agnostic
- Add test cases for alternative prefixes

Claude was using word-based priorities like "medium" instead of numeric
values (0-4 or P0-P4), causing bd create commands to fail in a loop.
Changes:
- Update bd prime output to clearly document priority format with example
- Add explicit note: NOT "high"/"medium"/"low"
- Improve error message to mention that words are not valid

Extracted repeated priority and ID validation patterns from CLI commands
into reusable functions in internal/validation/bead.go.
Changes:
- Added ValidatePriority(): Combines parsing and error handling
- Added ValidateIDFormat(): Validates ID format and extracts prefix
- Added ValidatePrefix(): Validates prefix matching with database config
- Updated create.go and show.go to use new validation functions
- Simplified force flag logic to always call ValidatePrefix()
- Added comprehensive tests for all validation functions
- Added TODO comment for daemon mode validation enhancement
Results:
- Reduced code duplication by ~20 lines
- Centralized validation logic for easier maintenance
- Consistent error messages across all commands
- All tests passing
