Changed all user-facing documentation and help text to use `in_progress`
(underscore) instead of `in-progress` (hyphen) to match the canonical
status value.
Files updated:
- cmd/bd/ready.go - Short description
- cmd/bd/status.go - Long description
- commands/stats.md - Action suggestion
- README.md - Workflow description
Note: CSS class names, HTML IDs, and GitHub label mappings intentionally
kept with hyphens as they follow different conventions.

- Add JSONL-only mode detection in ensureStoreActive() with context-aware
error messages that suggest correct actions based on project state
- Improve error messages in main.go to detect JSONL presence and suggest
appropriate solutions (bd init, --no-db flag, or config.yaml setting)
- Update documentation to use issues.jsonl as canonical filename:
- AGENT_INSTRUCTIONS.md, README.md, resolve-beads-conflict.md
- docs/GIT_INTEGRATION.md
- Update hook template comments to clarify issues.jsonl is canonical
while maintaining backward compatibility for beads.jsonl

Removes global gitattributes setup from stealth mode, keeping only the global gitignore configuration. CI failures are pre-existing (TestZFCSkipsExportAfterImport timeout).
Completes the deletion propagation epic (bd-imj) with all 9 subtasks:
- Cross-clone deletion propagation via deletions.jsonl
- bd deleted command for audit trail
- Auto-compact during sync (opt-in)
- Git history fallback with timeout and regex escaping
- JSON output for pruning results
- Integration tests for deletion scenarios
- Documentation in AGENTS.md, README.md, and docs/DELETIONS.md

Adds `bd init --stealth` to enable beads usage without affecting repo collaborators:
- Global gitattributes: configures beads merge driver across all repos
- Global gitignore: prevents .beads/ and .claude/settings.local.json from being committed
- Claude Code integration: adds 'bd onboard' instruction automatically
- Respects existing global git config files, only creates when necessary
Perfect for personal experimentation or contributing to repos where not everyone uses beads.

Git merge drivers only support three placeholders:
- %O (ancestor/base)
- %A (current version)
- %B (other branch's version)
The code was incorrectly using %L and %R, which don't exist in git,
causing them to be passed through literally and breaking JSONL merges.
Changes:
- Fixed merge driver config in init.go, merge.go, README.md, docs
- Added detection in bd doctor with clear error messages
- Added auto-fix in bd doctor --fix
- Added proactive warning in bd sync before git pull
- Added reactive error detection after merge failures
- Updated all tests to use correct placeholders
Now users get helpful guidance at every step:
1. bd doctor detects the issue
2. bd doctor --fix auto-corrects it
3. bd sync warns before pulling if misconfigured
4. Error messages suggest bd doctor --fix when merge fails

Fixes#340
Created AGENT_INSTRUCTIONS.md to house detailed operational instructions,
reducing AGENTS.md from 963 to 626 lines (~35% reduction).
Changes:
- New AGENT_INSTRUCTIONS.md with development, testing, and release procedures
- AGENTS.md now serves as quick overview with references to detailed docs
- Updated README.md link to "Landing the Plane" section
- Fixed broken team-workflow README links
Benefits:
- Prevents context pollution when multiple tools add instructions
- Better separation: quick reference vs detailed operations
- Enables tool-specific instruction files
- Maintains all content, just reorganized

Added comprehensive documentation to help new users understand what files
should be committed vs ignored after running bd init:
1. README.md:
- New "Files Created by bd init" section
- Clear lists of files to commit vs ignore
- Explains purpose of .gitattributes for team collaboration
2. docs/GIT_INTEGRATION.md:
- Enhanced .gitattributes section with IMPORTANT notice
- Explains why it must be committed (merge driver config)
- Lists benefits of intelligent JSONL merging
Key clarification: .gitattributes should be COMMITTED (not ignored) as it
configures git merge behavior for the entire team.

* bd sync: 2025-11-06 17:34:52
* feat: Add reload button and multiselect status filter to monitor
- Changed status filter from single select to multiselect with 'Open' selected by default
- Added reload button with visual feedback (hover/active states)
- Updated filterIssues() to handle multiple selected statuses
- Added reloadData() function that reloads both stats and issues
- Improved responsive design for mobile devices
- Filter controls now use flexbox layout with better spacing
* fix: Update monitor statistics to show Total, In Progress, Open, Closed
- Replaced 'Ready to Work' stat with 'In Progress' stat
- Reordered stats to show logical progression: Total -> In Progress -> Open -> Closed
- Updated loadStats() to fetch in-progress count from stats API
- Removed unnecessary separate API call for ready count
* fix: Correct API field names in monitor stats JavaScript
The JavaScript was using incorrect field names (stats.total, stats.by_status)
that don't match the actual types.Statistics struct which uses flat fields
with underscores (total_issues, in_progress_issues, etc).
Fixed by updating loadStats() to use correct field names:
- stats.total -> stats.total_issues
- stats.by_status?.['in-progress'] -> stats.in_progress_issues
- stats.by_status?.open -> stats.open_issues
- stats.by_status?.closed -> stats.closed_issues

* fix: Make monitor require daemon to prevent SQLite locking
Implemented Option 1 from beads-eel: monitor now requires daemon and never
opens direct SQLite connection.
Changes:
- Added 'monitor' to noDbCommands list in main.go to skip normal DB initialization
- Added validateDaemonForMonitor() PreRun function that:
- Finds database path using beads.FindDatabasePath()
- Validates daemon is running and healthy
- Fails gracefully with clear error message if no daemon
- Only uses RPC connection, never opens SQLite directly
Benefits:
- Eliminates SQLite locking conflicts between monitor and daemon
- Users can now close/update issues via CLI while monitor runs
- Clear error messages guide users to start daemon first
Fixes beads-eel
* bd sync: 2025-11-06 18:03:50
* docs: Add bd daemons restart subcommand documentation

- commands/daemons.md: Added full restart subcommand section with synopsis, description, arguments, flags, and examples
- README.md: Added restart examples to daemon management section
- AGENTS.md: Added restart examples with --json flag for agents
The restart command gracefully stops and starts a specific daemon by workspace path or PID,
useful after upgrading bd or when a daemon needs refreshing.
