Add auto-commit, auto-push, local mode, sync interval, and daemon mode
to the status output when querying a running daemon.
This helps users understand the current daemon configuration without
having to check logs or remember what flags were used at startup.
Changes:
- Add config fields to StatusResponse in protocol.go
- Add SetConfig() method to Server for daemon to set its config
- Update handleStatus() to include config in response
- Update showDaemonStatus() to query and display config via RPC
- Add comprehensive test coverage for new functionality

Enable daemon RPC support for delete operations to trigger auto-sync.
This PR adds delete operation support to the RPC daemon, ensuring that delete operations emit mutation events and trigger auto-sync like other mutating operations.

The estimated_minutes field existed in the Issue schema but wasn't exposed
via CLI. This adds:
- --estimate / -e flag to bd create (e.g., bd create "Task" --estimate 120)
- --estimate / -e flag to bd update (e.g., bd update bd-xyz --estimate 60)
- EstimatedMinutes field to RPC CreateArgs and UpdateArgs
- Server-side handling in handleCreate and updatesFromArgs
- Validation for non-negative values
The value is specified in minutes and is useful for planning and
prioritization. The vscode-beads extension already has an Estimate column
that can now be populated.

- Add --unassigned/-u flag to bd ready command
- Update SQL query in GetReadyWork to filter for NULL/empty assignee

- Support multiple labels via repeatable flags
- Implement in both daemon and direct modes
- Add comprehensive tests for all label operations
The bd update command now supports:

Implements a new 'bd count' command that provides efficient issue counting
with filtering and grouping capabilities.
Features:
- Basic count: Returns total count of issues matching filters
- All filtering options from 'bd list' (status, priority, type, assignee, labels, dates, etc.)
- Grouping via --by-* flags: status, priority, type, assignee, label
- JSON output support for both simple and grouped counts
- Both daemon and direct mode support
Implementation:
- Added OpCount operation and CountArgs to RPC protocol
- Added Count() method to RPC client
- Implemented handleCount() server-side handler with optimized bulk label fetching
- Created cmd/bd/count.go with full CLI implementation
Performance optimization:
- Pre-fetches all labels in a single query when using --by-label to avoid N+1 queries

Add external_ref field to CreateArgs and UpdateArgs RPC protocol
structs to enable linking issues to external systems (GitHub, Jira,
Shortcut, etc.) when using daemon mode.
Changes:
- Add ExternalRef field to rpc.CreateArgs and rpc.UpdateArgs
- Update bd create/update commands to pass external_ref via RPC
- Update daemon handlers to process external_ref field
- Add integration tests for create and update operations
The --external-ref flag now works correctly in both daemon and direct modes.

* feat: Add reload button and multiselect status filter to monitor
- Changed status filter from single select to multiselect with 'Open' selected by default
- Added reload button with visual feedback (hover/active states)
- Updated filterIssues() to handle multiple selected statuses
- Added reloadData() function that reloads both stats and issues
- Improved responsive design for mobile devices
- Filter controls now use flexbox layout with better spacing
* fix: Update monitor statistics to show Total, In Progress, Open, Closed
- Replaced 'Ready to Work' stat with 'In Progress' stat
- Reordered stats to show logical progression: Total -> In Progress -> Open -> Closed
- Updated loadStats() to fetch in-progress count from stats API
- Removed unnecessary separate API call for ready count
* fix: Correct API field names in monitor stats JavaScript
The JavaScript was using incorrect field names (stats.total, stats.by_status)
that don't match the actual types.Statistics struct which uses flat fields
with underscores (total_issues, in_progress_issues, etc).
Fixed by updating loadStats() to use correct field names:
- stats.total -> stats.total_issues
- stats.by_status?.['in-progress'] -> stats.in_progress_issues
- stats.by_status?.open -> stats.open_issues
- stats.by_status?.closed -> stats.closed_issues

* fix: Make monitor require daemon to prevent SQLite locking
Implemented Option 1 from beads-eel: monitor now requires daemon and never
opens direct SQLite connection.
Changes:
- Added 'monitor' to noDbCommands list in main.go to skip normal DB initialization
- Added validateDaemonForMonitor() PreRun function that:
- Finds database path using beads.FindDatabasePath()
- Validates daemon is running and healthy
- Fails gracefully with clear error message if no daemon
- Only uses RPC connection, never opens SQLite directly
Benefits:
- Eliminates SQLite locking conflicts between monitor and daemon
- Users can now close/update issues via CLI while monitor runs
- Clear error messages guide users to start daemon first

* docs: Add bd daemons restart subcommand documentation
Added documentation for the 'bd daemons restart' subcommand across all documentation files:
- commands/daemons.md: Added full restart subcommand section with synopsis, description, arguments, flags, and examples
- README.md: Added restart examples to daemon management section
- AGENTS.md: Added restart examples with --json flag for agents
The restart command gracefully stops and starts a specific daemon by workspace path or PID,
useful after upgrading bd or when a daemon needs refreshing.
