Replaces manual working directory save/restore patterns
with Go's built-in `t.Chdir()` helper across 23 test files.
The manual pattern involved calling `os.Getwd()` to save
the original directory, using `defer os.Chdir(origWd)` for
restoration, and manually handling errors during directory
changes. This boilerplate has been replaced with single
`t.Chdir(path)` calls that handle cleanup automatically.
The `t.Chdir()` method automatically restores the working
directory when the test completes, eliminating the need for
manual defer statements and error handling.
Total:
~75 instances replaced (assuming Claude's math is right)

Add a `--stealth` flag to `bd setup claude` that installs
Claude Code hooks using `bd prime --stealth` instead of
`bd prime`. This extends the stealth workflow introduced for
`bd prime` to the setup command, enabling workflows where git
operations should be deferred or handled separately from bd
database flushing.
When `--stealth` is specified, the installed hooks call
`bd prime --stealth`, which outputs only `bd sync --flush-only`
in the close protocol, omitting all git operations.
Update `RemoveClaude()` to remove both command variants
(`bd prime` and `bd prime --stealth`) for backwards
compatibility with existing installations. Update
`hasBeadsHooks()` to detect either variant as a valid
installation.
Add comprehensive test coverage for stealth mode: hook
installation with stealth command, removal of both variants,
detection of both variants, and idempotency with stealth mode.

Add a `--stealth` flag to `bd prime` that outputs a simplified
workflow using only `bd sync --flush-only`, omitting all git
operations (commit, push, pull).
This addresses use cases where git operations need to be deferred
or handled separately from the bd workflow (e.g. bd init --stealth),
where committing files is may not desired as part of the Claude
conversation.
In stealth mode, the close protocol shows only the flush step.
Includes tests for current and existing functionality.
To make testing easier,
refactor output functions to accept `io.Writer` parameters
instead of writing directly to `os.Stdout`,
and convert `isEphemeralBranch` from a function to a
variable for stubbing.

Add a --readonly flag that blocks all write operations, allowing workers
to read beads state without modifying it. Workers can use:
- bd show, bd list, bd ready (read operations)
Workers cannot use:
- bd create, bd update, bd close, bd sync, etc. (write operations)
The flag can be set via:
- --readonly flag on command line
- BD_READONLY=true environment variable
- readonly: true in config file
This enables swarm workers to see their assigned work from a static
snapshot of the beads database without accidentally modifying it.
Commands protected by readonly mode:
- create, update, close, delete, edit
- sync, import, reopen
- comment add, dep add/remove, label add/remove

Root cause: metadata.json is tracked in git and contains last_bd_version.
When git operations (pull, checkout, merge) reset metadata.json to the
committed version, the upgrade notification would fire repeatedly.

gitignored, so git operations don't affect version tracking.

When multiple clones commit to beads-sync branch and histories diverge,
git merge would fail. This replaces git's commit-level merge with a
content-based merge that extracts JSONL from base/local/remote and
merges at the semantic level.
Key changes:
- Add divergence detection using git rev-list --left-right
- Extract JSONL content from specific commits for 3-way merge
- Reset to remote's history then commit merged content on top
- Pre-emptive fetch before commit to reduce divergence likelihood
- Deletions.jsonl merged by union (keeps all deletions)

prefix mismatch errors on subsequent imports.
The fix adds prefix filtering in flushToJSONLWithState() when:

2. Current repo is not the primary repo
3. The repo has a configured issue_prefix

- performAutoImport (used by createAutoImportFunc and createLocalAutoImportFunc)

This reduces ~60 lines of duplicated code and provides a single

When sync.branch is configured, the sync command:
1. Exports changes to JSONL
2. Commits to sync branch via worktree
3. Pulls from sync branch
4. Restores .beads/ from HEAD to keep working directory clean
But PersistentPostRun's flushManager.Shutdown() was re-exporting to JSONL,
undoing the restore and leaving modified files.
Fix: Set skipFinalFlush flag when sync.branch mode completes successfully.
This prevents the final export in PersistentPostRun.
Also: Skip push to main branch when sync.branch is configured - all
pushes should go through the sync branch worktree.
When sync.branch is configured, the main branch's .beads/ directory was
showing as modified after every sync, even though the data was correctly
synced to the sync branch worktree.
This happened because:
1. Export writes to main's .beads/
2. Files are copied to worktree and committed there
3. But main's .beads/ now differs from what's committed on main
Fix: After sync completes, restore .beads/ from HEAD to keep the working
directory clean. The actual beads data lives on the sync branch; the main
branch's .beads/ is just a snapshot that should match what's committed.
Add detection for when the current branch is the configured sync branch.
This is a misconfiguration that causes bd sync to fail with:
fatal: 'beads-sync' is already used by worktree
The doctor now reports this as an error with a clear fix:
Switch to your main working branch: git checkout main
Also shows current branch info in the OK case for better visibility.
Add a new command that encapsulates all the work needed to migrate a clone
to use the sync.branch workflow for multi-clone setups like Gas Town:
- Validates current state (not on sync branch, not already configured)
- Creates sync branch if it doesn't exist (from remote or locally)
- Sets up git worktree for the sync branch
- Syncs current beads data to worktree
- Commits initial state to sync branch
- Sets sync.branch configuration
- Pushes sync branch to remote
Usage:
bd migrate-sync beads-sync # Basic migration
bd migrate-sync beads-sync --dry-run # Preview changes
bd migrate-sync beads-sync --force # Reconfigure even if set
Extract performExport() and performAutoImport() shared implementations:
- createExportFunc() and createLocalExportFunc() now use performExport()
with skipGit parameter
- createAutoImportFunc() and createLocalAutoImportFunc() now use performAutoImport()
with skipGit parameter
- createLocalSyncFunc() kept as-is (different flow from createSyncFunc)
Reduces daemon_sync.go by 89 lines (1003 -> 914) while maintaining
identical behavior and test coverage.
All existing tests pass. New shared functions use conditional logic
to skip git operations when skipGit=true, eliminating the need for
separate implementations.
* feat(daemon): add --local flag for git-free operation
Add --local mode to the daemon that allows it to run without a git
repository. This decouples the daemon's core functionality (auto-flush
to JSONL, auto-import from JSONL) from git synchronization.
Changes:
- Add --local flag to daemon command
- Skip git repo check when --local is set
- Add validation that --auto-commit and --auto-push cannot be used with --local
- Create local-only sync functions that skip git operations:
- createLocalSyncFunc: export-only for polling mode
- createLocalExportFunc: export without git commit/push
- createLocalAutoImportFunc: import without git pull
- Update startup message to indicate LOCAL mode
- Update event loop to use local functions when in local mode
This enables use cases like:
- Single-machine issue tracking without git
- Auto-flush to JSONL for backup purposes
- Running daemon in environments without git access
Multi-machine sync still requires git (as expected).
* fix(daemon): skip fingerprint validation in local mode
validateDatabaseFingerprint() calls beads.ComputeRepoID() which
executes git commands. This fails in non-git directories even
with --local flag.
Skip fingerprint validation entirely when running in local mode
since there's no git repository to validate against.
* test(daemon): add comprehensive test coverage for --local mode
Add tests for:
- Flag validation (--local incompatible with --auto-commit/--auto-push)
- Git check skip logic in local mode
- createLocalSyncFunc, createLocalExportFunc, createLocalAutoImportFunc
- Fingerprint validation skip in local mode
- Full integration test in non-git directory
- Export/import round-trip test
