When closing an issue, the new --suggest-next flag returns a list of
issues that became unblocked (ready to work on) as a result of the close.
This helps agents and users quickly identify what work is now available
after completing a blocker.
Example:
$ bd close bd-5 --suggest-next
✓ Closed bd-5: Completed
Newly unblocked:
• bd-7 "Implement feature X" (P1)
• bd-8 "Write tests for X" (P2)
Implementation:
- Added GetNewlyUnblockedByClose to storage interface
- Implemented efficient single-query for SQLite using blocked_issues_cache
- Added SuggestNext field to CloseArgs in RPC protocol
- Added CloseResult type for structured response
- CLI handles both daemon and direct modes
Thanks to @kraitsura for the detailed feature request and design.

Completely rewrote the molecular chemistry doc to be more practical:
- Start with execution semantics (what users care about)
- TL;DR section at top with 5 key concepts
- Explain dependency types and blocking behavior
- Clarify molecules = epics (no special types needed)
- Move chemistry metaphor to secondary section
- Add common patterns (sequential, fanout, dynamic bonding)
- Keep agent pitfalls and quick reference
The doc now reads like a reference manual with examples rather than
a philosophical treatise on work composition.

Remove the spawn command from bd mol. Proto instantiation now uses:
- bd pour <proto> - Instantiate as persistent mol (liquid phase)
- bd wisp create <proto> - Instantiate as ephemeral wisp (vapor phase)
Rationale:
- 'spawn' doesn't fit the chemistry metaphor
- Two phase transitions (pour/wisp) are clearer than one command with flags
- Avoids confusion about defaults
Changes:
- Delete mol_spawn.go
- Update mol.go, mol_catalog.go, mol_distill.go to reference pour/wisp
- Update pour.go and wisp.go to remove 'Equivalent to spawn' comments
- Update info.go changelog entries
- Update CHANGELOG.md, ARCHITECTURE.md, DELETIONS.md

- Update docs/ANTIVIRUS.md with signing verification instructions
- Update scripts/README.md with signing script documentation
The signing is gracefully degraded - releases continue without signing
if the certificate secrets are not configured.

Replace all fatih/color usages with internal/ui package that provides:
- Semantic color tokens (Pass, Warn, Fail, Accent, Muted)
- Adaptive light/dark mode support via Lipgloss AdaptiveColor
- Ayu theme colors for consistent, accessible output
- Tufte-inspired data-ink ratio principles
Files migrated: 35 command files in cmd/bd/
Add docs/ui-philosophy.md documenting:
- Semantic token usage guidelines
- Light/dark terminal optimization rationale
- Tufte and perceptual UI/UX theory application
- When to use (and not use) color in CLI output
- Add semantic coloring to help output (section headers, flags, types)
- Reorganize commands into clearer categories:
- "Views & Reports" for readonly queries (ready, stats, blocked, etc.)
- "Maintenance" for health/repair tasks (doctor, validate, migrate, etc.)
- Merge "Issue Metadata" back into "Working With Issues"
- Highlight "doctor" as primary maintenance entry point with "(start here)"
- Create docs/UI_PHILOSOPHY.md documenting Tufte-inspired design principles
- Add guidance for PR to not include .beads/issues.jsonl
Adds automatic label filtering based on current working directory:
- New config option: directory.labels (maps directory patterns to labels)
- bd ready and bd list auto-apply label filtering when in matching directory
- Uses --label-any semantics (shows issues with any of the matching labels)
Config example:
```yaml
directory:
labels:
packages/maverick: maverick
packages/agency: agency
```
When running `bd ready` from `packages/maverick/`, issues labeled
"maverick" are automatically shown first, without needing --label-any.
