Previously bd doctor warned about using beads.jsonl vs issues.jsonl, but
users should be free to configure any name they want. The real problems are:
1. Having multiple JSONL files (sync/merge conflicts)
2. Configuration not matching reality
Changes:
- Rewrote CheckLegacyJSONLFilename to scan for ALL .jsonl files
- Now filters out merge artifacts (backup, .orig, .bak, etc.)
- Warns only when multiple real JSONL files exist
- Added CheckDatabaseConfig to detect when configured paths do not match
what actually exists on disk
- Updated tests to verify backup files are ignored
- Added test cases for custom JSONL filenames

The canonical beads database name is issues.jsonl. Tens of thousands of users
have issues.jsonl, and beads.jsonl was only used by the Beads project itself
due to git history pollution.
Changes:
- Updated bd doctor to warn about beads.jsonl instead of issues.jsonl
- Changed default config from beads.jsonl to issues.jsonl
- Reversed precedence in checkGitForIssues to prefer issues.jsonl
- Updated git merge driver config to use issues.jsonl
- Updated all tests to expect issues.jsonl as the default
issues.jsonl is now the canonical default; beads.jsonl is legacy

Add comprehensive detection and migration guidance for old beads integration
patterns. This helps users adopt the more efficient bd prime approach.
Changes:
- Enhanced CheckLegacyBeadsSlashCommands with detailed migration steps
and token efficiency benefits (99% reduction: ~10.5k → ~50 tokens)
- Added CheckAgentDocumentation to detect missing AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md
and suggest bd onboard or bd setup claude
- Enhanced CheckClaude to recommend bd prime hooks for MCP-only setups
with clear token efficiency messaging
- Added comprehensive tests for all new checks
bd doctor now detects:
1. Old slash command patterns (/beads:*) and recommends bd prime hooks
2. Missing agent documentation and suggests creating it
3. MCP-only setups without hooks and shows token savings potential
4. Provides clear migration paths and benefits for all scenarios
Token efficiency messaging:
- MCP mode: ~50 tokens vs ~10.5k for full scan (99% reduction)
- CLI mode: ~1-2k tokens with automatic context recovery
- Hooks auto-refresh context on SessionStart and PreCompact
