Remove the entire YAML-based workflow system in preparation for
redesigning templates as native Beads.
Removed:
- cmd/bd/templates/workflows/*.yaml
- cmd/bd/workflow.go
- internal/types/workflow.go (WorkflowTemplate types)
The new design will use regular Beads with a template label,
and a clone-with-substitution operation for instantiation.

Allows bypassing preflight checks when needed (e.g., testing).
Use with caution - preflight checks exist for safety.

Adds `bd workflow` command group that creates epics with dependent child tasks
from YAML templates. This enables structured multi-step workflows like version
bumps where agents can work through tasks with verification and dependencies.
Commands:
- `bd workflow list` - List available workflow templates
- `bd workflow show <name>` - Show template details and task graph
- `bd workflow create <name> --var key=value` - Instantiate workflow
- `bd workflow status <epic-id>` - Show workflow progress
- `bd workflow verify <task-id>` - Run verification command
Features:
- Variable substitution with {{var}} syntax
- Built-in variables: {{today}}, {{user}}
- Preflight checks before workflow creation
- Hierarchical task IDs under epic (bd-xxx.1, bd-xxx.2)
- Dependency graph between tasks
- Verification commands embedded in task descriptions
Includes built-in `version-bump` template with 21 tasks covering:
- All 10+ version files
- check-versions.sh verification
- Git commit, tag, push
- CI monitoring (goreleaser, npm, pypi, homebrew)
- Local machine upgrades
- Final verification

npm deprecated classic tokens and now requires either granular tokens
with 2FA or OIDC trusted publishing. This updates the workflow to use
the latter, which is npm recommended approach for CI/CD.
Requires configuring trusted publisher on npmjs.com:
- Organization: steveyegge
- Repository: beads
- Workflow: release.yml

Remove ClearDirtyIssues() which had a race condition that could lose
dirty issues if export failed partway through. All callers now use
ClearDirtyIssuesByID() which only clears specific exported issues.
- Remove from Storage interface
- Remove from SQLite and Memory implementations
- Update 6 test call sites to use ClearDirtyIssuesByID()

- bd-06px: Add --no-git-history flag to import command for sync subprocess compatibility
- bd-0zp7: Add missing hook calls (EventMessage in mail reply, EventClose in mail ack)
- bd-hy9p: Implement --body-file and --description-file flags for reading descriptions from files
Also closed stale issues that were already fixed:
- bd-0d5p: macOS test timeout (already fixed with SysProcAttr)
- bd-7yg: Merge driver placeholders (already using correct %A %O %A %B)
- bd-4ri: Test deadlock (test passes in 0.04s now)
- bd-b3og: TestImportBugIntegration (test no longer exists)

Root cause: Previous fix only cleaned beads-sync branch, not main.
During 3-way merge, orphans were re-introduced from main.
This export is from clean DB (0 orphaned issues).
Also force-resetting beads-sync to match.
Adds back third-party tools removed in succinct README PR.
Includes beads.el Emacs package (closes#610).

Three changes to fix deleted issues resurrecting during bd sync:
1. daemon handleDelete now uses CreateTombstone instead of DeleteIssue
- internal/rpc/server_issues_epics.go
2. sync.go exportToJSONL now includes IncludeTombstones:true
- cmd/bd/sync.go
3. server_export_import_auto.go handleExport and auto-export now include
tombstones in SearchIssues filter
- internal/rpc/server_export_import_auto.go
Also adds README.md documentation for sync.branch mode (bd-dsdh):
- Explains "always dirty" working tree behavior
- Shell alias tip: gs='git status -- ":!.beads/"'
- When to use bd sync --merge

The sync.branch workflow copies JSONL to main working dir without
committing, which blocked bd sync --merge (required clean working dir).
Changes:
- Exclude .beads/ from dirty check in mergeSyncBranch
- Restore .beads/ to HEAD before merge to prevent conflicts

- Move runHook into build-tagged implementations (unix/windows) to keep unix syscalls off Windows builds.
- In unix implementation, guard nil Process, return wrapped kill errors except ESRCH, and document linkage to TestRunSync_KillsDescendants.
- On Windows, best-effort kill on timeout retains prior behavior.
- In tests, move testing.Short earlier and keep descendant-kill coverage on Linux.
Root cause: The merge driver matched issues by IssueKey (ID+CreatedAt+CreatedBy).
When timestamp precision differed (e.g., with/without nanoseconds), the same
issue was treated as two different issues, causing both tombstone and closed
versions to appear in the merge result.
Fix: Added ID-based fallback matching in merge3WayWithTTL. When key-based
matching fails but the same ID exists in the other side, use that for merging.
Also track processed IDs to prevent duplicates.

- IsExpired(): Negative TTL means immediately expired (for --hard mode)
- IsExpired(): ClockSkewGrace only added for TTLs > 1 hour
- bd cleanup --hard: Use negative TTL to prune freshly created tombstones
- bd delete --hard: New flag to immediately prune tombstones from JSONL
- Import: Add early tombstone check before all phases to prevent resurrection
The early tombstone check prevents ghost issues from being created when
tombstones exist in the DB. However, a deeper git merge issue (bd-ncwo)
can still cause resurrection when remote's status:closed wins the merge.

Ensure RunSync kills the hook process group on timeout so descendant processes (e.g. scripts that ) cannot keep the caller blocked. Add explanatory comment in and a Linux-only unit test in . Trim pid parsing newline in the test. All tests pass locally.
