The original PR added retry logic on top of BEGIN IMMEDIATE, but this caused
multi-minute hangs because:
1. Connection has busy_timeout=30s set via pragma
2. Each BEGIN IMMEDIATE waits up to 30s before returning SQLITE_BUSY
3. With 5 retries, worst case was 5 × 30s = 150+ seconds
The fix removes the retry loop since SQLite's busy_timeout already handles
retries internally. BEGIN IMMEDIATE still acquires the write lock early,
preventing deadlocks - we just let busy_timeout handle contention.
Root cause analysis in bd-9ldm.

Update withTx to use BEGIN IMMEDIATE with exponential backoff retry
on SQLITE_BUSY errors. This prevents "database is locked" failures
during concurrent operations (daemon + CLI, multi-agent workflows).
Changes:
- withTx now uses beginImmediateWithRetry (same pattern as RunInTransaction)
- Add dbExecutor interface for helper functions that work with both
*sql.Tx and *sql.Conn
- Update all withTx callers to use *sql.Conn
- Refactor DeleteIssue to use withTx (fixes the specific error in auto-import)
- Update markIssuesDirtyTx to accept dbExecutor interface
Affected paths:
- MarkIssuesDirty, ClearDirtyIssuesByID (dirty.go)
- AddDependency, RemoveDependency (dependencies.go)
- executeLabelOperation (labels.go)
- AddComment (events.go)
- ApplyCompaction (compact.go)
- DeleteIssue (queries.go)
Note: Some direct BeginTx calls in queries.go (CloseIssue, UpdateIssue,
ReopenIssue, DeleteIssues) still use the old pattern and could be
refactored in a follow-up.

When creating issues with explicit IDs via PrefixOverride (for cross-rig
creation), the storage layer was still validating against the local
config prefix, causing errors like:
issue ID 'da-DataArchive-witness' does not match configured prefix 'hq'
The queries.go layer already handled PrefixOverride correctly, but
transaction.go did not. This fix adds the same PrefixOverride handling
to transaction.go:
1. Check if PrefixOverride is set
2. If set, use it as the prefix and skip validation (caller knows best)
3. Otherwise, fall back to existing IDPrefix/configPrefix logic
This allows gt doctor --fix to create agent beads for non-local rigs.

Fixes stack overflow and database initialization failures when running bd on WSL2 with Docker Desktop bind mounts.
## Problem
The bd CLI crashed with stack overflow when running on WSL2 with repositories on Docker Desktop bind mounts (/mnt/wsl/docker-desktop-bind-mounts/...). SQLite WAL mode fails with 'locking protocol' error on these network filesystems.
## Solution
- Expand WAL mode detection to identify Docker bind mounts at /mnt/wsl/* (in addition to Windows paths at /mnt/[a-zA-Z]/)
- Fall back to DELETE journal mode on these problematic paths
- Add comprehensive unit tests for path detection

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.

During bd init, auto-import fails with "invalid issue type" errors even
when types.custom is defined in config.yaml. This happens because custom
types are read from the database, but the database is being created
during init and doesn't have the config set yet.
Changes:
- Add GetCustomTypesFromYAML() to internal/config/config.go to read
types.custom from config.yaml via viper
- Modify GetCustomTypes() in sqlite/config.go to fallback to config.yaml
when the database doesn't have types.custom configured
- Add tests for GetCustomTypesFromYAML()
This allows fresh clones with custom types defined in config.yaml (e.g.,
Gas Town types like molecule, gate, convoy, agent, event) to successfully
auto-import their JSONL during bd init.

The scanIssues and scanIssuesWithDependencyType helper functions were

Per Go database/sql best practices, rows.Err() should always be checked
after a rows.Next() loop completes to catch any errors that occurred
during iteration.

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.

When an issue is deleted, issues that depend on it were not being marked
dirty. This caused stale dependency references to persist in JSONL after
the target issue was deleted, because the dependent issues were never
re-exported.
This manifests as FK validation failures during multi-repo hydration:
"foreign key violation: issue X depends on non-existent issue Y"
The fix queries for dependent issues before deleting and marks them dirty
so they get re-exported without the stale dependency reference.

Centralizes repository context resolution via RepoContext API, fixing bugs where git commands run in the wrong repo when BEADS_DIR points elsewhere or in worktree scenarios.
When using `bd create --id=<id>` where the ID matches an existing

Add insertIssuesStrict function that uses plain INSERT instead of

This fixes a race condition where INSERT OR IGNORE could silently skip

Add missing reconnectMu.RLock() protection to storage methods that were
vulnerable to the same race condition fixed in GH#607. The FreshnessChecker
can trigger reconnect() which closes s.db while queries are in flight,
causing "database is closed" errors during daemon export operations.
Protected methods:
- labels.go: GetLabelsForIssues (GetLabels intentionally unprotected - called from GetIssue which holds lock)
- comments.go: GetIssueComments, GetCommentsForIssues
- dependencies.go: GetDependencyCounts, GetDependencyRecords, GetAllDependencyRecords, GetDependencyTree, loadDependencyGraph
- config.go: SetConfig, GetConfig, GetAllConfig, DeleteConfig, SetMetadata, GetMetadata

- hash_ids.go: GetNextChildID, ensureChildCounterUpdated (getNextChildNumber unprotected - called internally)
Internal helpers called from already-locked contexts intentionally omit
RLock to avoid deadlock (Go's RWMutex doesn't support recursive locking).

* fix(create): Use prefix from routes.jsonl when creating issues with --rig
When using `bd create --rig <name>`, the prefix from routes.jsonl was
being discarded. This caused issues to be created with the target
database's default prefix instead of the route's prefix.
This is particularly problematic when using the redirect mechanism to
share a single database across multiple rigs - the redirect correctly
routes to the shared database, but the prefix was not being applied.
The fix:
1. Capture the prefix from routing.ResolveBeadsDirForRig()
2. Temporarily override the target database's issue_prefix config
3. Restore the original prefix after issue creation
Example scenario that now works:
- routes.jsonl: {"prefix": "aops-", "path": "src/academicOps"}
- src/academicOps/.beads/redirect points to ~/writing/.beads
- `bd create --rig aops "Test"` now creates aops-xxx instead of ns-xxx

* fix(create): pass prefix via struct field instead of mutating config
The previous approach temporarily mutated the database's issue_prefix
config during cross-rig issue creation, then restored it afterward.
This was fragile in multi-user scenarios where concurrent operations
could see the wrong prefix.
New approach:
- Add PrefixOverride field to types.Issue
- CreateIssue checks PrefixOverride first, uses it if set
- createInRig sets issue.PrefixOverride instead of mutating config
This passes state as a parameter rather than mutating shared state,
making it safe for concurrent multi-user access.

* 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

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.

Implements automatic discovery of GitHub workflow run IDs for gates
awaiting CI/CD completion. This enables the Refinery patrol to
auto-populate await_id for gh:run gates that were created without one.
Changes:
- Add `bd gate discover` command that:
- Finds open gh:run gates without await_id
- Queries recent GitHub workflow runs via gh CLI
- Matches runs to gates using heuristics (branch, commit, time)
- Updates gates with discovered run IDs
- Add `--await-id` flag to `bd update` for manual setting
- Add AwaitID to UpdateArgs in RPC protocol
- Add await_id to allowedUpdateFields in storage layer
Matching heuristics (scored, highest match wins):
- Commit SHA match: +100 points
- Branch match: +50 points
- Time proximity (<5min: +30, <10min: +20, <30min: +10)
- In-progress/queued status: +5 points
Usage:
bd gate discover # Auto-discover for all matching gates
bd gate discover --dry-run # Preview without updating
bd gate discover --branch main --limit 10

* feat(dates): add due date schema and --due flag
- Add due_at and defer_until columns to issues table via migration 035
- Implement --due flag on create command with ISO date parsing
- Extend RPC protocol and daemon to pass DueAt from CLI to storage
- Display DueAt and DeferUntil in show command output
- Update Issue type with new date fields
Users can now set due dates when creating issues, enabling deadline-based
task management.
* feat(dates): add compact duration parser (+6h, +1d, +2w)
- Create internal/timeparsing package with layered parser architecture
- Implement parseCompactDuration with regex pattern [+-]?\d+[hdwmy]
- Add comprehensive test suite (22 cases) for duration parsing
- Integrate into create.go with fallback to ISO format
Supports hours (h), days (d), weeks (w), months (m), and years (y).
Negative values allowed for past dates.
* feat(dates): add NLP parsing for natural language dates
Integrate olebedev/when library for natural language time expressions.
The layered parser now handles: compact duration → absolute formats → NLP.
Changes:
- Add olebedev/when dependency for NLP parsing
- Implement ParseNaturalLanguage and ParseRelativeTime functions
- Reorder layers: absolute formats before NLP to avoid misinterpretation
- Simplify create.go to use unified ParseRelativeTime
- Add comprehensive NLP test coverage (22 test cases)
Supports: tomorrow, next monday, in 3 days, 3 days ago
* feat(dates): add --defer flag to create/update/defer commands
Add time-based deferral support alongside existing status-based defer.
Issues can now be hidden from bd ready until a specific time.
Changes:
- Add --defer flag to bd create (sets defer_until on creation)
- Add --due and --defer flags to bd update (modify existing issues)
- Add --until flag to bd defer (combines status=deferred with defer_until)
- Add DueAt/DeferUntil fields to UpdateArgs in protocol.go
Supports: +1h, tomorrow, next monday, 2025-01-15
* feat(dates): add defer_until filtering to ready command
Add time-based deferral support to bd ready:
- Add --include-deferred flag to show issues with future defer_until
- Filter out issues where defer_until > now by default
- Update undefer to clear defer_until alongside status change
- Add IncludeDeferred to WorkFilter and RPC ReadyArgs
Part of GH#820: Relative Date Parsing (Phase 5)
* feat(dates): add polish and tests for relative date parsing
Add user-facing warnings when defer date is in the past to help catch
common mistakes. Expand help text with format examples and document
the olebedev/when September parsing quirk.
Tests:
- TestCreateSuite/WithDueAt, WithDeferUntil, WithBothDueAndDefer
- TestReadyWorkDeferUntil (ExcludesFutureDeferredByDefault, IncludeDeferredShowsAll)
Docs:
- CLAUDE.md quick reference updated with new flags
- Help text examples for --due, --defer on create/update
Closes: Phase 6 of beads-820-relative-dates spec
* feat(list): add time-based query filters for defer/due dates
Add --deferred, --defer-before, --defer-after, --due-before, --due-after,
and --overdue flags to bd list command. All date filters now support
relative time expressions (+6h, tomorrow, next monday) via the
timeparsing package.
Filters:
- --deferred: issues with defer_until set
- --defer-before/after: filter by defer_until date range
- --due-before/after: filter by due_at date range
- --overdue: due_at in past AND status != closed
Existing date filters (--created-after, etc.) now also support relative
time expressions through updated parseTimeFlag().
* build(nix): update vendorHash for olebedev/when dependency
The olebedev/when library was added for natural language date parsing
(GH#820). This changes go.sum, requiring an updated vendorHash in the
Nix flake configuration.
