Fixes bd-0b2: The git history backfill mechanism was causing data loss
during JSONL filename migrations (beads.jsonl → issues.jsonl). When issues
existed in the old filename's git history, the backfill incorrectly treated
them as "deleted" and purged them from the database.
Changes:
- Add NoGitHistory field to importer.Options and ImportOptions structs
- Modify purgeDeletedIssues() to skip git history check when flag is set
- Add --no-git-history flag to bd import command
- Add --no-git-history flag to bd sync command
- Update purge_test.go to pass Options argument
Usage:
bd import -i .beads/issues.jsonl --no-git-history
bd sync --no-git-history

This repo explicitly configures beads.jsonl in metadata.json due to git
history reasons. The issues.jsonl file was stale (102 issues vs 622 in
beads.jsonl) and not being used.
bd doctor correctly detected this as a problem - having multiple JSONL
files can cause sync and merge conflicts.

- Revert migration to issues.jsonl (was causing data corruption)
- Backup issues.jsonl for reference
- Database and beads.jsonl now in sync (538 issues)
- Clean slate for stable operations
Add comprehensive detection and migration guidance for old beads integration
patterns. This helps users adopt the more efficient bd prime approach.
Changes:
- Enhanced CheckLegacyBeadsSlashCommands with detailed migration steps
and token efficiency benefits (99% reduction: ~10.5k → ~50 tokens)
- Added CheckAgentDocumentation to detect missing AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md
and suggest bd onboard or bd setup claude
- Enhanced CheckClaude to recommend bd prime hooks for MCP-only setups
with clear token efficiency messaging
- Added comprehensive tests for all new checks
bd doctor now detects:
1. Old slash command patterns (/beads:*) and recommends bd prime hooks
2. Missing agent documentation and suggests creating it
3. MCP-only setups without hooks and shows token savings potential
4. Provides clear migration paths and benefits for all scenarios
Token efficiency messaging:
- MCP mode: ~50 tokens vs ~10.5k for full scan (99% reduction)
- CLI mode: ~1-2k tokens with automatic context recovery
- Hooks auto-refresh context on SessionStart and PreCompact

When git pull encounters merge conflicts in .beads/beads.jsonl, the
post-merge hook runs 'bd sync --import-only' which previously failed
with an error message pointing users to manual resolution.
This commit adds automatic 3-way merge resolution as a fallback safety
net that works alongside the git merge driver.
Changes:
- Modified conflict detection in import.go to attempt automatic merge
- Added attemptAutoMerge() function that:
- Extracts git conflict stages (:1 base, :2 ours, :3 theirs)
- Invokes 'bd merge' command for intelligent field-level merging
- Writes merged result back and auto-stages the file
- Restarts import with merged JSONL on success
- Falls back to manual resolution instructions only if auto-merge fails
Defense-in-depth approach:
1. Primary: git merge driver prevents most conflicts during merge
2. Fallback: import auto-merge handles any that slip through

bd export currently silently overwrites issues.jsonl even when the
database is stale (older than the JSONL file). This causes data loss
in multi-agent workflows.
Real incident from vc project:
- Agent A created 4 discovery epics and exported
- Agent B had stale database and exported, removing those epics
- Required manual recovery
Proposed fix: Check database freshness before export, similar to
VC's ValidateDatabaseFreshness(). Require --force to override.
Priority P1: Silent data loss in common multi-agent scenario.
