* feat: enhance bd doctor sync detection with count and prefix mismatch checks
Improves bd doctor to detect actual database-JSONL sync issues instead of relying only on file modification times:
Key improvements:
1. Count detection: Reports when database issue count differs from JSONL (e.g., "Count mismatch: database has 0 issues, JSONL has 61")
2. Prefix detection: Identifies prefix mismatches when majority of JSONL issues use different prefix than database config
3. Error handling: Returns errors from helper functions instead of silent failures, distinguishing "can't open DB" from "counts differ"
4. Query optimization: Single database connection for all checks (reduced from 3 opens to 1)
5. Better error reporting: Shows actual error details when database or JSONL can't be read
This addresses the core issue where bd doctor would incorrectly report "Database and JSONL are in sync" when the database was empty but JSONL contained issues (as happened in privacy2 project).
Tests:
- Added TestCountJSONLIssuesWithMalformedLines to verify malformed JSON handling
- Existing doctor tests still pass
- countJSONLIssues now returns error to indicate parsing issues

* fix: correct git hooks installation instructions in bd doctor
The original message referenced './examples/git-hooks/install.sh' which doesn't exist in user projects. This fix changes the message to point to the actual location in the beads GitHub repository:
Before: "Run './examples/git-hooks/install.sh' to install recommended git hooks"
After: "See https://github.com/steveyegge/beads/tree/main/examples/git-hooks for installation instructions"
This works for any project using bd, not just the beads repository itself.

* feat: add recovery suggestions when database fails but JSONL has issues
When bd doctor detects that the database cannot be opened/queried but the JSONL file contains issues, it now suggests the recovery command:
Fix: Run 'bd import -i issues.jsonl --rename-on-import' to recover issues from JSONL
This addresses the case where:
- Database is corrupted or inaccessible
- JSONL has all the issues backed up
- User needs a clear path to recover
The check now:
1. Reads JSONL first (doesn't depend on database)
2. If database fails but JSONL has issues, suggests recovery command
3. If database can be queried, continues with sync checks as before
Tested on privacy2 project which has 61 issues in JSONL but inaccessible database.

* fix: support hash-based issue IDs in import rename
The import --rename-on-import flag was rejecting valid issue IDs with
hash-based suffixes (e.g., privacy-09ea) because the validation only
accepted numeric suffixes. Beads now generates and accepts base36-encoded
hash IDs, so update the validation to match.
Changes:
- Update isNumeric() to accept base36 characters (0-9, a-z)
- Update tests to reflect hash-based ID support
- Add gosec nolint comment for safe file path construction
Fixes the error: "cannot rename issue privacy-09ea: non-numeric suffix '09ea'"

When import finds same content hash with different IDs, treat it as
an update to the existing issue instead of failing with 'rename
collision' error. This handles edge cases like test data, legacy
data, or data corruption gracefully.

**Problem:**
Closed issues were silently reopening during git sync/import operations.
When importing an issue update, the importer built an updates map with
status='closed' but NO closed_at timestamp. The UpdateIssue() function's
manageClosedAt() would only set closed_at when status was CHANGING to
closed, not when it was already closed. Result: closed_at got cleared,
effectively reopening issues.
**Root Cause:**
1. Importer built updates map without closed_at field (lines 443-451, 519-528)
2. closed_at was not in allowedUpdateFields whitelist
3. manageClosedAt() only managed closed_at for status TRANSITIONS
4. Import of already-closed issue → closed_at lost → issue reopens
**Impact:**
- WASM issues (bd-44d0, bd-8507, etc.) were closed on Nov 4 (commit 0df9144)
- They reopened as 'open' status during sync on Nov 5 (commit 8c9814a)
- Users had to repeatedly close the same issues
- Data integrity violation: status=closed with closed_at=NULL
**Fix:**
1. Add closed_at to allowedUpdateFields whitelist
2. Add closed_at to importer updates maps (both external_ref and ID paths)
3. Update manageClosedAt() to skip auto-management if closed_at explicitly provided
- Preserves import timestamps while maintaining auto-management for CLI operations
**Testing:**
- All internal/importer tests pass
- All internal/storage/sqlite tests pass
- Explicitly tests timestamp preservation in TestImportWithExternalRef
**Files Changed:**
- internal/importer/importer.go: Add closed_at to updates maps
- internal/storage/sqlite/sqlite.go: Allow closed_at updates, respect explicit values

Changes:
- Add MultiRepoConfig to internal/config
- Add GetMultiRepoConfig() to retrieve repos.primary and repos.additional
- Add source_repo field to Issue type to track ownership
- Prepare for hydration logic that reads from N repos
Addresses code review feedback:
✅ P0 (Must Fix):
- Fix JSONL lookup to return LAST match, not FIRST (resurrection.go:160-162)
- Changed from early return to scan all matches and keep last
- Respects JSONL append-only semantics
✅ P1 (Should Fix):
- Add test for multiple JSONL versions
- TestTryResurrectParent_MultipleVersionsInJSONL verifies correct behavior
- Document error message change in CHANGELOG.md
- Old: "parent issue X does not exist"
- New: "parent issue X does not exist and could not be resurrected from JSONL history"
- Marked as breaking change for script parsers
✅ P2/P3 (Nice to Have):
- Add documentation to AGENTS.md explaining auto-resurrection behavior
- Document best-effort dependency resurrection
⏸️ Deferred (P1 - Optimize batch resurrection):
- Caching optimization deferred (no batch use cases currently)
All tests pass:
- Unit tests: internal/storage/sqlite/
- Integration test: TestImportWithDeletedParent
Refactored resurrection functions to accept optional *sql.Conn parameter:
- Added tryResurrectParentWithConn() internal function
- Added tryResurrectParentChainWithConn() internal function
- Updated CreateIssue to use conn-based resurrection
- Updated EnsureIDs to use conn-based resurrection
This eliminates 'database is locked' errors when resurrection
happens inside an existing transaction.
Fixes bd-58c0
Phase 2 of fixing import failure on missing parent issues (bd-d19a).
Implemented:
- TryResurrectParent: searches JSONL history for deleted parents
- TryResurrectParentChain: recursively resurrects entire parent chains
- Creates tombstones (status=closed) to preserve hierarchical structure
- Modified EnsureIDs and CreateIssue to call resurrection before validation
When importing a child issue with missing parent:
1. Searches .beads/issues.jsonl for parent in git history
2. If found, creates tombstone with status=closed
3. Preserves original title and metadata
4. Appends original description to tombstone
5. Copies dependencies if targets exist
This allows imports to proceed even when parents were deleted,
enabling multi-repo workflows and normal database hygiene operations.

- Claude Code for Web integration via SessionStart hooks
- Comprehensive integration test suite (5 tests, all passing)
- Complete documentation (6 guides)
- Release process documentation
Published to npm: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@beads/bd
Benefits over WASM:

- 100% feature parity with standalone bd
Closes bd-febc
This change improves information density by using Base36 (0-9, a-z) instead
of hex (0-9, a-f) for hash-based issue IDs. Key benefits:
- Shorter IDs: Can now use 3-char IDs (was 4-char minimum)
- Better scaling: 3 chars good for ~160 issues, 4 chars for ~980 issues
- Case-insensitive: Maintains excellent CLI usability
- Backward compatible: Old hex IDs continue to work
Changes:
- Implemented Base36 encoding with proper truncation (keep LSB)
- Updated adaptive length thresholds (3-8 chars instead of 4-8)
- Fixed collision probability math to match encoding (was calculating
for base36 but encoding in hex - now both use base36)
- Fixed ID parser bug (use prefixWithHyphen for substring matching)
- Updated all tests and test data patterns

Multiple CLI commands had a systematic bug where ResolveID responses were
incorrectly converted using string(resp.Data) instead of json.Unmarshal.
Since resp.Data is json.RawMessage (already JSON-encoded), this preserved
the JSON quotes, causing IDs to become "bd-1048" instead of bd-1048.
When re-marshaled for subsequent RPC calls, these became double-quoted
("\"bd-1048\""), causing database lookups to fail.
Bugs fixed:
1. Nil pointer dereference in handleShow - added nil check after GetIssue
2. Double JSON encoding in 12 locations across 4 commands:
- bd show (3 instances in show.go)
- bd dep add/remove/tree (5 instances in dep.go)
- bd label add/remove/list (3 instances in label.go)
- bd reopen (1 instance in reopen.go)
All instances replaced string(resp.Data) with proper json.Unmarshal.
Removed debug logging added during investigation.
Tested: All affected commands now work correctly with daemon mode.
- Switched from modernc.org/sqlite to ncruces/go-sqlite3 for WASM support
- Added WASM-specific stubs for daemon process management
- Created wasm/ directory with build.sh and Node.js runner
- WASM build succeeds (32MB bd.wasm)
- Node.js can load and execute the WASM module
- Next: Need to bridge Go file I/O to Node.js fs module

Extracts duplicated path canonicalization logic (filepath.Abs + EvalSymlinks)
into a reusable helper function utils.CanonicalizePath() in internal/utils/path.go.
Changes:
- Add internal/utils/path.go with CanonicalizePath() function
- Add comprehensive tests in internal/utils/path_test.go
- Replace inline canonicalization in beads.go:131-140
- Replace inline canonicalization in cmd/bd/main.go:446-454
- Replace inline canonicalization in cmd/bd/nodb.go:25-33
The new helper maintains identical behavior:
1. Converts path to absolute form via filepath.Abs
2. Resolves symlinks via filepath.EvalSymlinks
3. Falls back gracefully on errors (returns absPath if EvalSymlinks fails,
returns original path if Abs fails)

CRITICAL BUG: The previous fix had a race condition where the
importInProgress flag could be released twice, allowing two goroutines
to think they both hold the lock.
Bug scenario:
1. Goroutine A: acquires lock (CAS true)
2. Goroutine A: manually releases at line 208 for git dirty skip
3. Goroutine B: CAS succeeds, acquires lock
4. Goroutine A: defer runs, releases flag AGAIN (clears B lock)
5. Goroutine C: CAS succeeds - now TWO goroutines have lock
Root cause: Using both manual Store(false) AND defer Store(false)
created a window where the flag could be cleared twice.
Fix: Use a shouldDeferRelease flag to disable the deferred release
when we manually release early. This ensures exactly one release
per acquisition.

CRITICAL FIX: The daemon could enter a corrupt state when auto-import
was triggered while uncommitted changes existed in .beads/ files. This
caused mysterious EOF errors requiring daemon restarts.
Root Causes Fixed:
1. No git dirty check before auto-import
2. Missing timeout protection (could hang indefinitely)
3. Race condition in importInProgress flag management
4. Improper git status parsing (false positives)
5. Context leak in export goroutine (accessing closed DB)
6. Data loss in triggerExport (missing deps/labels/comments)
Changes:
- Add hasUncommittedBeadsFiles() to check git status before import
- Properly parses git porcelain format ("XY filename")
- Ignores untracked files, only checks tracked .jsonl changes
- 5-second timeout on git command to prevent hangs
- Add 30-second timeout to import operations
- Prevents daemon from hanging on stuck imports
- Returns clear error message on timeout
- Fix race condition in importInProgress flag
- Explicitly release before early returns
- Prevents other requests seeing incorrect "import in progress"
- Fix context leak in onChanged export goroutine
- Check daemon shutdown state before export
- Suppress expected "database closed" errors during shutdown
- Pass storage/path as parameters to avoid closure issues
- Fix data loss in triggerExport()
- Populate dependencies, labels, comments (mirrors handleExport)
- Use atomic file write (temp + rename)
- Sort issues for consistent output
Impact: Prevents daemon corruption in collaborative workflows where
users frequently pull updates while having local uncommitted changes.
