Use IMMEDIATE transactions with dedicated connections to fix race condition
where multiple processes creating issues concurrently caused "UNIQUE constraint
failed: issues.id" errors.
Key changes:
- Use BEGIN IMMEDIATE to acquire RESERVED lock early
- Use dedicated connection (sql.Conn) for transaction to ensure all operations
happen on same connection
- Increase busy_timeout from 10s to 30s for better parallel write handling
- Use context.Background() for ROLLBACK to ensure cleanup even if ctx cancelled
Added regression test TestParallelIssueCreation that creates 20 issues in
parallel and verifies no ID collisions occur.

The hierarchical blocking query recursively joins on dependencies with
a type filter. Without a composite index, SQLite must scan all
dependencies for a given depends_on_id and filter by type afterward.
With 10k+ issues and many dependencies per issue, this could cause
noticeable slowdowns in ready work calculations.
Changes:
- Added idx_dependencies_depends_on_type composite index to schema
- Added automatic migration for existing databases
- Index creation is silent and requires no user intervention
The recursive CTE now efficiently seeks (depends_on_id, type) pairs
directly instead of post-filtering.

Move counter sync from import to CreateIssue to handle parallel issue creation.
This ensures the counter is always up-to-date before generating new IDs,
preventing collisions when multiple processes create issues concurrently.
Remove unused SyncCounterForPrefix method and its test.
When importing issues with explicit high IDs (e.g., bd-100), the
issue_counters table wasn't being updated. This caused the next
auto-generated issue to collide with existing IDs (bd-4 instead of bd-101).
Changes:
- Add SyncAllCounters() to scan all issues and update counters atomically
- Add SyncCounterForPrefix() for granular counter synchronization
- Call SyncAllCounters() in import command after creating issues
- Add comprehensive tests for counter sync functionality
- Update TestImportCounterSyncAfterHighID to verify fix
The fix uses a single efficient SQL query to prevent ID collisions
with subsequently auto-generated issues.
Replace the in-memory nextID counter with an atomic database-backed
counter using the issue_counters table. This fixes race conditions
when multiple processes create issues concurrently.
Changes:
- Add issue_counters table with atomic INSERT...ON CONFLICT pattern
- Remove in-memory nextID field and sync.Mutex from SQLiteStorage
- Implement getNextIDForPrefix() for atomic ID generation
- Update CreateIssue() to use database counter instead of memory
- Update RemapCollisions() to use database counter for collision resolution
- Clean up old planning and bug documentation files
Fixes the multi-process ID generation race condition tested in
cmd/bd/race_test.go.
SQLite's CAST to INTEGER never returns NULL - it returns 0 for
invalid strings. This meant the malformed ID detection query was
completely broken and never found any malformed IDs.
The Problem:
- Query used: CAST(suffix AS INTEGER) IS NULL
- SQLite behavior: CAST('abc' AS INTEGER) = 0 (not NULL!)
- Result: Malformed IDs were never detected
The Fix:
- Check if CAST returns 0 AND suffix doesn't start with '0'
- This catches non-numeric suffixes like 'abc', 'foo123'
- Avoids false positives on legitimate IDs like 'test-0', 'test-007'
Changes:
- internal/storage/sqlite/sqlite.go:126-131
* Updated malformed ID query logic
* Check: CAST = 0 AND first char != '0'
* Added third parameter for prefix (used 3 times now)
Testing:
- Created test DB with test-abc, test-1, test-foo123
- Warning correctly shows: [test-abc test-foo123] ✓
- Added test-0, test-007 (zero-prefixed IDs)
- No false positives ✓
- All existing tests pass ✓
Impact:
- Malformed IDs are now properly detected and warned about
- Helps maintain data quality
- Prevents confusion when auto-incrementing IDs

Implement automatic database migration to add the dirty_issues table
for existing databases that were created before the incremental export
feature (bd-39) was implemented.
Changes:
- Add migrateDirtyIssuesTable() function in sqlite.go
- Check for dirty_issues table existence on database initialization
- Create table and index if missing (silent migration)
- Call migration after schema initialization in New()
The migration:
- Queries sqlite_master to check if dirty_issues table exists
- If missing, creates the table with proper schema and index
- Happens automatically on first database access after upgrade
- No user intervention required
- Fails safely if table already exists (no-op)
Testing:
- Created test database without dirty_issues table
- Verified table was auto-created on first command
- Verified issue was properly marked dirty
- All existing tests pass
This makes the incremental export feature (bd-39) work seamlessly
with existing databases without requiring manual migration steps.

Optimize auto-flush by tracking which issues have changed instead of
exporting the entire database on every flush. For large projects with
1000+ issues, this provides significant performance improvements.
Changes:
- Add dirty_issues table to schema with issue_id and marked_at columns
- Implement dirty tracking functions in new dirty.go file:
* MarkIssueDirty() - Mark single issue as needing export
* MarkIssuesDirty() - Batch mark multiple issues efficiently
* GetDirtyIssues() - Query which issues need export
* ClearDirtyIssues() - Clear tracking after successful export
* GetDirtyIssueCount() - Monitor dirty issue count
- Update all CRUD operations to mark affected issues as dirty:
* CreateIssue, UpdateIssue, DeleteIssue
* AddDependency, RemoveDependency (marks both issues)
* AddLabel, RemoveLabel, AddEvent
- Modify export to support incremental mode:
* Add --incremental flag to export only dirty issues
* Used by auto-flush for performance
* Full export still available without flag
- Add Storage interface methods for dirty tracking
Performance impact: With incremental export, large databases only write
changed issues instead of regenerating entire JSONL file on every
auto-flush.

Critical bug fix: getNextID() was using alphabetical MAX instead of
numerical MAX, causing "bd-9" to be treated as max when "bd-10" existed.
This blocked all new issue creation after bd-10.
Fixed by using SQL CAST to extract and compare numeric portions of IDs.
This ensures bd-10 > bd-9 numerically, not alphabetically.
Also completed comprehensive design for bd-9 (collision resolution):
- Algorithm design with 7 phases (detection, scoring, remapping, etc.)
- Created 7 child issues (bd-10, bd-12-17) breaking down implementation
- Added design documents to .beads/ for future reference
- Updated issues JSONL with new issues and dependencies
Issues created:
- bd-10: Export dependencies in JSONL
- bd-12: Collision detection
- bd-13: Reference scoring algorithm
- bd-14: ID remapping with updates
- bd-15: CLI flags and reporting
- bd-16: Comprehensive tests
- bd-17: Documentation updates
- bd-18: Add design/notes fields to update command

This is a fundamental architectural shift from binary SQLite to JSONL as
the source of truth for git workflows.
## New Features
- `bd export --format=jsonl` - Export issues to JSON Lines format
- `bd import` - Import issues from JSONL (create new, update existing)
- `--skip-existing` flag for import to only create new issues
## Architecture Change
**Before:** Binary SQLite database committed to git
**After:** JSONL text files as source of truth, SQLite as ephemeral cache
Benefits:
- Git-friendly text format with clean diffs
- AI-resolvable merge conflicts (append-only is 95% conflict-free)
- Human-readable issue tracking in git
- No binary merge conflicts
## Documentation
- Updated README with JSONL-first workflow and git hooks
- Added TEXT_FORMATS.md analyzing JSONL vs CSV vs binary
- Updated GIT_WORKFLOW.md with historical context
- .gitignore now excludes *.db, includes .beads/*.jsonl
## Implementation Details
- Export sorts issues by ID for consistent diffs
- Import handles both creates and updates atomically
- Proper handling of pointer fields (EstimatedMinutes)
- All tests passing
## Breaking Changes
- Database files (*.db) should now be gitignored
- Use export/import workflow for git collaboration
- Git hooks recommended for automation
