Wisp operations (mol wisp *, mol burn, mol squash) and commands operating on
ephemeral issue IDs (bd-eph-*, gt-eph-*, eph-*) now auto-bypass the daemon.
Since wisps are ephemeral (Ephemeral=true) and never exported to JSONL,
the daemon cannot help with them anyway. This eliminates the need to manually
add --no-daemon for every wisp operation.
Changes:
- Add isWispOperation() helper to detect wisp commands and ephemeral IDs
- Add FallbackWispOperation constant for daemon status tracking
- Insert wisp detection in PersistentPreRunE daemon connection logic
- Update error messages in wisp.go, mol_burn.go, mol_squash.go
- Add comprehensive unit tests for isWispOperation()
Analysis found these commands are dead code:
- gt never calls `bd pin` - uses `bd update --status=pinned` instead
- Beads.Pin() wrapper exists but is never called
- bd hook functionality duplicated by gt mol status
- Code comment says "pinned field is cosmetic for bd hook visibility"
Removed:
- cmd/bd/pin.go
- cmd/bd/unpin.go
- cmd/bd/hook.go

- Remove cross-store squash logic from mol_squash.go
- Delete runWispSquash() and squashWispToPermanent() functions
- Simplify runMolSquash() to work with main store only
- Update mol_burn.go to work with main database
- Remove .beads-wisp/ directory references
- Look for Wisp=true issues in main store instead
- Update mol_bond.go to use Wisp flag instead of separate store
- --wisp now creates issues with Wisp=true in main store
- --pour creates issues with Wisp=false (persistent)
- Update bondProtoMol signature to accept both flags
- Deprecate wisp storage functions in beads.go
- WispDirName, FindWispDir, FindWispDatabasePath
- NewWispStorage, EnsureWispGitignore, IsWispDatabase
- All marked deprecated with reference to bd-bkul
- Remove obsolete cross-store squash tests
- TestSquashWispToPermanent
- TestSquashWispToPermanentWithSummary
- TestSquashWispToPermanentKeepChildren
All tests pass. Build succeeds.

Progress on eliminating separate .beads-wisp/ directory:
- Add --wisp flag to bd create (creates issue with Wisp=true)
- Update bd wisp create to use main db instead of separate wisp storage
- Update bd wisp list to query main db with Wisp filter
- Update bd wisp gc to work with main database
- Add Wisp field to RPC ListArgs for daemon mode support
- Fix terminology: use "old/abandoned" for time-based cleanup,
reserve "stale" for graph-pressure staleness (per Gas Town taxonomy)
Still TODO:
- Finish mol squash simplification (remove cross-store logic)
- Remove runWispSquash and squashWispToPermanent functions
- Update mol burn similarly
- Deprecate .beads-wisp/ functions in internal/beads/beads.go
- Test all changes

- Add wisp detection in mol squash: checks wisp storage if not in main
- squashWispToPermanent: creates digest in permanent, deletes from wisp
- Fix directory naming: .beads-wisps → .beads-wisp (singular, matches doc)
- Add comprehensive tests for wisp squash scenarios

Wisp = ephemeral vapor produced by the Steam Engine (Gas Town).
This aligns with the metaphor:
- Claude = Fire
- Claude Code = Steam
- Gas Town = Steam Engine
- Wisps = ephemeral vapor it produces
Changes:
- types.Issue.Ephemeral → types.Issue.Wisp
- types.IssueFilter.Ephemeral → types.IssueFilter.Wisp
- JSON field: "ephemeral" → "wisp"
- CLI flag: --ephemeral → --wisp (bd cleanup)
- All tests updated
Note: SQLite column remains "ephemeral" (no migration needed).
This is a breaking change for JSON consumers using 0.33.0.

Ephemeral issues should never be exported to issues.jsonl. They exist only
in SQLite and are shared via .beads/redirect pointers. This prevents
"zombie" issues from resurrecting after mol squash deletes them.
Changes:
- Filter ephemeral issues in autoflush, export, and multirepo_export
- Add --summary flag to bd mol squash for agent-provided summaries
- Fix DeleteIssue to also remove comments (missing cascade)
- Add tests for ephemeral filtering and comment deletion

Implements Tier 2 of the ephemeral molecule cleanup workflow. The squash
command compresses a molecule's ephemeral children into a single digest issue.
Features:
- Collects all ephemeral child issues of a molecule
- Generates a structured digest with execution summary
- Creates a non-ephemeral digest issue linked to the root
- Optionally deletes ephemeral children (default behavior)
- Supports --dry-run and --keep-children flags
