- Timer gates: closes when elapsed time exceeds timeout duration

In git worktrees, any bd command was slow with a 2-3s pause because:
- git.IsWorktree() was called 4+ times per command
- Each call spawned 2 git processes (git-dir and git-common-dir)
- git.GetRepoRoot() and git.GetMainRepoRoot() also called multiple times
Fix: Cache results using sync.Once since these values do not change during
a single command execution:
- IsWorktree() - caches worktree detection
- GetRepoRoot() - caches repo root path
- GetMainRepoRoot() - caches main repo root for worktrees
Added ResetCaches() for test cleanup between subtests that change directories.

* feat(ready,blocked): Add --parent flag for scoping by epic/bead descendants
Add --parent flag to `bd ready` and `bd blocked` CLI commands and MCP tools
to filter results to all descendants of a specific epic or bead.
## Backward Compatibility
- CLI: New optional --parent flag; existing usage unchanged
- RPC: New `blocked` operation added (was missing); existing operations unchanged
- MCP: New optional `parent` parameter; existing calls work as before
- Storage interface: GetBlockedIssues signature changed to accept WorkFilter
- All callers updated to pass empty filter for existing behavior
- Empty WorkFilter{} returns identical results to previous implementation
## Implementation Details
SQLite uses recursive CTE to traverse parent-child hierarchy:
WITH RECURSIVE descendants AS (
SELECT issue_id FROM dependencies
WHERE type = 'parent-child' AND depends_on_id = ?
UNION ALL
SELECT d.issue_id FROM dependencies d
JOIN descendants dt ON d.depends_on_id = dt.issue_id
WHERE d.type = 'parent-child'
)
SELECT issue_id FROM descendants
MemoryStorage implements equivalent recursive traversal with visited-set
cycle protection via collectDescendants helper.
Parent filter composes with existing filters (priority, labels, assignee, etc.)
as an additional WHERE clause - all filters are AND'd together.
## RPC Blocked Support
MCP beads_blocked() existed but daemon client raised NotImplementedError.
Added OpBlocked and handleBlocked to enable daemon RPC path, which was
previously broken. Now both CLI and daemon clients work for blocked queries.
## Changes
- internal/types/types.go: Add ParentID *string to WorkFilter
- internal/storage/sqlite/ready.go: Add recursive CTE for parent filtering
- internal/storage/memory/memory.go: Add getAllDescendants/collectDescendants
- internal/storage/storage.go: Update GetBlockedIssues interface signature
- cmd/bd/ready.go: Add --parent flag to ready and blocked commands
- internal/rpc/protocol.go: Add OpBlocked constant and BlockedArgs type
- internal/rpc/server_issues_epics.go: Add handleBlocked RPC handler
- internal/rpc/client.go: Add Blocked client method
- integrations/beads-mcp/: Add BlockedParams model and parent parameter
## Usage
bd ready --parent bd-abc # All ready descendants
bd ready --parent bd-abc --priority 1 # Combined with other filters
bd blocked --parent bd-abc # All blocked descendants
## Testing
Added 4 test cases for parent filtering:
- TestParentIDFilterDescendants: Verifies recursive traversal (grandchildren)
- TestParentIDWithOtherFilters: Verifies composition with priority filter
- TestParentIDWithBlockedDescendants: Verifies blocked issues excluded from ready
- TestParentIDEmptyParent: Verifies empty result for childless parent
* fix: Correct blockedCmd indentation and suppress gosec false positive
- Fix syntax error from incorrect indentation in blockedCmd Run function
- Add nolint:gosec comment for GetBlockedIssues SQL formatting (G201)
The filterSQL variable contains only parameterized WHERE clauses with
? placeholders, not user input

Steps can now declare their own expansion using the Expand field:
steps:
- id: design
expand: rule-of-five
expand_vars:
iterations: 3
This is more convenient than compose.expand for single-step expansions.
The step is replaced by the expansion template with variables substituted.
Reuses existing expandStep() and mergeVars() from gt-8tmz.34.

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

Runtime mode (triggered by --var or --mode=runtime):
- Substitutes variables with provided values
- Validates all required variables have values
- Use for: final validation before pour

Major refactor of molecular chemistry to make protos ephemeral:

- No more proto beads stored in the database

- template.go: Add VarDefs field to TemplateSubgraph for default

- pour.go: Try formula loading first for any name (not just mol-)
- wisp.go: Same pattern as pour
- mol_bond.go: Use resolveOrCookToSubgraph() for in-memory subgraphs
- mol_catalog.go: List formulas from disk instead of DB proto beads
- mol_distill.go: Output .formula.json files instead of proto beads

Changes:
- bd cook: outputs proto JSON to stdout by default, add --persist flag
for legacy behavior (write to database)
- bd pour: accepts formula names, cooks inline as ephemeral proto,
spawns mol, then cleans up temporary proto
- bd wisp create: accepts formula names, cooks inline as ephemeral proto,
creates wisp, then cleans up temporary proto
- bd mol bond: already supported ephemeral protos (gt-8tmz.25)
The ephemeral proto pattern avoids persisting templates in the database.
Protos are only needed temporarily during spawn operations - the spawned
mol/wisp is what gets persisted.

Bond command now accepts formula names (e.g., mol-polecat-arm) in addition
to issue IDs. When a formula name is given:
1. Looks up the formula using formula.Parser
2. Resolves inheritance and applies transformations (control flow, advice,
expansions, aspects)
3. Cooks the formula inline to create an ephemeral proto
4. Uses the cooked proto for bonding
This eliminates the need for pre-cooked proto beads in the database,
enabling more dynamic workflow composition.

Fixes a bug where outer iteration chaining was lost when nested loops
were expanded. The problem was:
1. chainLoopIterations set: outer.iter2.inner depends on outer.iter1.inner
2. ApplyLoops recursively expanded nested loops
3. outer.iter2.inner became outer.iter2.inner.iter1.work, etc.
4. The dependency was lost (referenced non-existent ID)
The fix:
- Move recursive ApplyLoops BEFORE chaining
- Add chainExpandedIterations that finds iteration boundaries by ID prefix
- Works with variable step counts per iteration (nested loops expand differently)
Now outer.iter2's first step correctly depends on outer.iter1's LAST step,
ensuring sequential execution of outer iterations.

Add SourceFormula and SourceLocation fields to track where each step
came from during the cooking process. This enables debugging of complex
compositions with inheritance, expansion, and advice.
Changes:
- Added SourceFormula and SourceLocation fields to Step struct (formula/types.go)
- Added same fields to Issue struct (types/types.go)
- Added SetSourceInfo() to parser.go - sets source on all steps after parsing
- Updated cook.go to copy source fields from Step to Issue
- Updated dry-run output to display source info: [from: formula@location]
- Updated advice.go to set source on advice-generated steps
- Updated controlflow.go to preserve source on loop-expanded steps
- Updated expand.go to preserve source on template-expanded steps
The source location format is:
- steps[N] - regular step at index N
- steps[N].children[M] - child step
- steps[N].loop.body[M] - loop body step
- template[N] - expansion template step
- advice - step inserted by advice transformation

Enables loops within loop bodies to be properly expanded:
- Copy Loop field in expandLoopIteration (was intentionally omitted)
- Add cloneLoopSpec for deep copying of LoopSpec with body steps
- Recursively call ApplyLoops at end of expandLoop to expand nested loops
- Also copy OnComplete field for consistency
Nested IDs follow natural chaining pattern:
outer.iter1.inner.iter2.step
Tested with 2-level and 3-level nesting scenarios.

4. Condition validation: Loop `until` conditions are now validated with
ParseCondition to catch syntax errors early.
5. Label format: Changed gate and loop labels from colon-delimited to
