Major improvements to code quality, documentation, and CI:
Code Quality:
- Add golangci-lint configuration with 13 linters
- Fix unchecked error returns in export/import/init
- Refactor duplicate scanIssues code
- Add package comments for all packages
- Add const block comments for exported constants
- Configure errcheck to allow idiomatic defer patterns
Documentation:
- Add comprehensive CONTRIBUTING.md with setup, testing, and workflow
- Fix QUICKSTART.md binary name references (beads → bd)
- Correct default database path documentation
CI/CD:
- Add GitHub Actions workflow for tests and linting
- Enable race detection and coverage reporting
- Automated quality checks on all PRs
All tests passing. Lint issues reduced from 117 to 103 (remaining are
idiomatic patterns and test code). Ready for open-source release.

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

Core features:
- Dependency-aware issue tracking with SQLite backend
- Ready work detection (issues with no open blockers)
- Dependency tree visualization
- Cycle detection and prevention
- Full audit trail
- CLI with colored output
Security and correctness fixes applied:
- Fixed SQL injection vulnerability in UpdateIssue (whitelisted fields)
- Fixed race condition in ID generation (added mutex)
- Fixed cycle detection to return full paths (not just issue IDs)
- Added cycle prevention in AddDependency (validates before commit)
- Added comprehensive input validation (priority, status, types, etc.)
- Fixed N+1 query in GetBlockedIssues (using GROUP_CONCAT)
- Improved query building in GetReadyWork (proper string joining)
- Fixed P0 priority filter bug (using Changed() instead of value check)
All critical and major issues from code review have been addressed.
