Remove Gas Town-specific type constants (TypeMolecule, TypeGate, TypeConvoy,
TypeMergeRequest, TypeSlot, TypeAgent, TypeRole, TypeRig, TypeEvent, TypeMessage)
from internal/types/types.go.
Beads now only has core work types built-in:
- bug, feature, task, epic, chore
All Gas Town types are now purely custom types with no special handling in beads.
Use string literals like "gate" or "molecule" when needed, and configure
types.custom in config.yaml for validation.
Changes:
- Remove Gas Town type constants from types.go
- Remove mr/mol aliases from Normalize()
- Update bd types command to only show core types
- Replace all constant usages with string literals throughout codebase
- Update tests to use string literals
This decouples beads from Gas Town, making it a generic issue tracker.

Core beads built-in types now only include work types:
- bug, feature, task, epic, chore
Gas Town types (molecule, gate, convoy, merge-request, slot, agent,
role, rig, event, message) are now "well-known custom types":
- Constants still exist for code convenience
- Require types.custom configuration for validation
- bd types command shows core types and configured custom types
Changes:
- types.go: Separate core work types from well-known custom types
- IsValid(): Only accepts core work types
- bd types: Updated to show core types and custom types from config
- memory.go: Use ValidateWithCustom for custom type support
- multirepo.go: Only check core types as built-in
- Updated all tests to configure custom types
This allows Gas Town (and other projects) to define their own types
via config while keeping beads core focused on work tracking.

* feat(daemon): unify auto-sync config for simpler agent workflows
## Problem
Agents running `bd sync` at session end caused delays in the Claude Code
"event loop", slowing development. The daemon was already auto-exporting
DB→JSONL instantly, but auto-commit and auto-push weren't enabled by
default when sync-branch was configured - requiring manual `bd sync`.
Additionally, having three separate config options (auto-commit, auto-push,
auto-pull) was confusing and could get out of sync.
## Solution
Simplify to two intuitive sync modes:
1. **Read/Write Mode** (`daemon.auto-sync: true` or `BEADS_AUTO_SYNC=true`)
- Enables auto-commit + auto-push + auto-pull
- Full bidirectional sync - eliminates need for manual `bd sync`
- Default when sync-branch is configured
2. **Read-Only Mode** (`daemon.auto-pull: true` or `BEADS_AUTO_PULL=true`)
- Only receives updates from team
- Does NOT auto-publish changes
- Useful for experimental work or manual review before sharing
## Benefits
- **Faster agent workflows**: No more `bd sync` delays at session end
- **Simpler config**: Two modes instead of three separate toggles
- **Backward compatible**: Legacy auto_commit/auto_push settings still work
(treated as auto-sync=true)
- **Adaptive `bd prime`**: Session close protocol adapts when daemon is
auto-syncing (shows simplified 4-step git workflow, no `bd sync`)
- **Doctor warnings**: `bd doctor` warns about deprecated legacy config
## Changes
- cmd/bd/daemon.go: Add loadDaemonAutoSettings() with unified config logic
- cmd/bd/doctor.go: Add CheckLegacyDaemonConfig call
- cmd/bd/doctor/daemon.go: Add CheckDaemonAutoSync, CheckLegacyDaemonConfig
- cmd/bd/init_team.go: Use daemon.auto-sync in team wizard
- cmd/bd/prime.go: Detect daemon auto-sync, adapt session close protocol
- cmd/bd/prime_test.go: Add stubIsDaemonAutoSyncing for testing
* docs: add comprehensive daemon technical analysis
Add daemon-summary.md documenting the beads daemon architecture,
memory analysis (explaining the 30-35MB footprint), platform support
comparison, historical problems and fixes, and architectural guidance
for other projects implementing similar daemon patterns.
Key sections:
- Architecture deep dive with component diagrams
- Memory breakdown (SQLite WASM runtime is the main contributor)
- Platform support matrix (macOS/Linux full, Windows partial)
- Historical bugs and their fixes with reusable patterns
- Analysis of daemon usefulness without database (verdict: low value)
- Expert-reviewed improvement proposals (3 recommended, 3 skipped)
- Technical design patterns for other implementations
* feat: add cross-platform CI matrix and dual-mode test framework
Cross-Platform CI:
- Add Windows, macOS, Linux matrix to catch platform-specific bugs
- Linux: full tests with race detector and coverage
- macOS: full tests with race detector
- Windows: full tests without race detector (performance)
- Catches bugs like GH#880 (macOS path casing) and GH#387 (Windows daemon)
Dual-Mode Test Framework (cmd/bd/dual_mode_test.go):
- Runs tests in both direct mode and daemon mode
- Prevents recurring bug pattern (GH#719, GH#751, bd-fu83)
- Provides DualModeTestEnv with helper methods for common operations
- Includes 5 example tests demonstrating the pattern
Documentation:
- Add dual-mode testing section to CONTRIBUTING.md
- Document RunDualModeTest API and available helpers
Test Fixes:
- Fix sync_local_only_test.go gitPull/gitPush calls
- Add gate_no_daemon_test.go for beads-70c4 investigation
* fix(test): isolate TestFindBeadsDir tests with BEADS_DIR env var
The tests were finding the real project's .beads directory instead of
the temp directory because FindBeadsDir() walks up the directory tree.
Using BEADS_DIR env var provides proper test isolation.
* fix(test): stop daemon before running test suite guard
The test suite guard checks that tests don't modify the real repo's .beads
directory. However, a background daemon running auto-sync would touch
issues.jsonl during test execution, causing false positives.
Changes:
- Set BEADS_NO_DAEMON=1 to prevent daemon auto-start from tests
- Stop any running daemon for the repo before taking the "before" snapshot
- Uses exec to call `bd daemon --stop` to avoid import cycle issues
* chore: revert .beads/issues.jsonl to upstream/main
Per CONTRIBUTING.md, .beads/issues.jsonl should not be modified in PRs.
