Give --all flag actual meaning in bd list

The --all flag exists but is currently a no-op ('flag provided for CLI familiarity'). Once we change the default to non-closed, --all should override to show all issues including closed.

This provides backwards compatibility for scripts that depend on seeing all issues.

## Implementation Plan

### Code Changes (cmd/bd/list.go)

1. **Update --all flag handling** (~line 889):
```go
// Currently: listCmd.Flags().Bool("all", false, "Show all issues (default behavior; flag provided for CLI familiarity)")
// Change to:
listCmd.Flags().Bool("all", false, "Show all issues including closed (overrides default filter)")
```

2. **Check for --all in Run function** (before applying default filter):
```go
allFlag, _ := cmd.Flags().GetBool("all")
if status == "" && !allFlag {
    // Apply default non-closed filter
    filter.ExcludeStatus = []types.Status{"closed"}
}
// If --all is set, no ExcludeStatus applied = show everything
```

### Testing
- `bd list --all` shows all issues including closed
- `bd list` shows non-closed (from bd-mypl)
- `bd list --all --status=open` - --all is ignored when explicit status given

### Documentation
- Update --help text
- Add to migration guide: "Use --all for previous default behavior"

Fix N+1 query pattern in swarm status blocked check

In getSwarmStatus, when checking if an issue is blocked, we query each dependency individually with GetIssue. With 100 issues and 5 deps each, thats 500 extra queries. Fix: Build a status map upfront from the already-fetched childIssues slice. File: cmd/bd/swarm.go:706-710

Consider consolidating config.yaml parsing into shared utility

Multiple places parse config.yaml with custom structs:

1. **autoimport.go:148** - `localConfig{SyncBranch}`
2. **main.go:310** - strings.Contains for no-db (fragile, see bd-r6k2)
3. **doctor.go:863** - strings.Contains for no-db (fragile, see bd-r6k2)
4. **internal/config/config.go** - Uses viper (but caches at startup, problematic for tests)

Consider creating a shared utility in `internal/configfile/` or extending the viper config:

```go
// internal/configfile/yaml.go
type YAMLConfig struct {
    SyncBranch string `yaml:"sync-branch"`
    NoDb       bool   `yaml:"no-db"`
    IssuePrefix string `yaml:"issue-prefix"`
    Author     string `yaml:"author"`
}

func LoadYAML(beadsDir string) (*YAMLConfig, error) {
    // Parse config.yaml with proper YAML library
}
```

Benefits:
- Single source of truth for config.yaml structure
- Proper YAML parsing everywhere
- Easier to add new config fields

Trade-off: May add complexity for simple one-off reads.


Add bd refile command to move issues between rigs

Add a `bd refile <source-id> <target-rig>` command to move issues between rigs.

Beads already has the routing infrastructure:
- ResolveBeadsDirForID - routes reads by prefix
- ResolveBeadsDirForRig - routes writes by rig name
- GetRoutedStorageForID - opens cross-rig storage connections

Implementation:
1. Get source issue via routing
2. Create new issue in target rig (existing --prefix mechanism)
3. Close source issue with 'Refiled to <new-id>'
4. Optionally: migrate deps, link the two issues

This is pure beads - no gastown involvement needed.


Add gate checking to Deacon patrol loop

Integrate gate checking into Deacon's patrol cycle.

## Patrol Integration
```go
func (d *Deacon) checkGates(ctx context.Context) {
    gates, _ := d.store.ListOpenGates(ctx)

    for _, gate := range gates {
        // Check timeout
        if time.Since(gate.CreatedAt) > gate.Timeout {
            d.notifyWaiters(gate, "timeout")
            d.closeGate(gate, "timed out")
            continue
        }

        // Check condition
        if d.checkCondition(gate.AwaitType, gate.AwaitID) {
            d.notifyWaiters(gate, "cleared")
            d.closeGate(gate, "condition met")
        }
    }
}
```

## Note
This task is in Gas Town (gt), not beads. May need to be moved there.

Work on beads-2vn: Add simple built-in beads viewer (GH#654). Add bd list --pretty with --watch flag, tree view with priority/status symbols. When done, submit MR (not PR) to integration branch for Refinery.


Agent beads: structured labels for filtering

## Agent Beads Need Queryable Labels

Currently agent beads have role_type/rig in description text, not as labels. This breaks @group resolution in gt mail.

## Current State
```json
{
  "id": "gt-gastown-witness",
  "issue_type": "agent",
  "description": "...\\nrole_type: witness\\nrig: gastown\\n..."
}
```

Cannot query: `bd list --type=agent --label=role_type:witness` returns nothing.

## Required
Agent bead creation should add labels:
- `role_type:<type>` (witness, refinery, crew, polecat, dog, mayor, deacon)
- `rig:<rig>` (gastown, beads, or "town" for town-level)

## Where to Fix
gt polecat/crew/agent creation commands should add labels.

## Acceptance
- New agent beads created with role_type/rig labels
- @group patterns work in gt mail router


Run tests and verify build

Run the test suite to verify nothing is broken:

```bash
./scripts/test.sh
```

Or manually:
```bash
go build ./cmd/bd/...
go test ./...
```

Fix any failures before proceeding.

Consolidate duplicate path-finding utilities (findJSONLPath, findBeadsDir, findGitRoot)

Code health review found these functions defined in multiple places:

- findJSONLPath() in autoflush.go:45-73 and doctor/fix/migrate.go
- findBeadsDir() in autoimport.go:197-239 (with git worktree handling)
- findGitRoot() in autoimport.go:242-269 (Windows path conversion)

The beads package has public FindBeadsDir() and FindJSONLPath() APIs that should be used consistently.

Impact: Bug fixes need to be applied in multiple places. Git worktree handling may not be replicated everywhere.

Fix: Consolidate all implementations to use the beads package APIs. Remove duplicates.


Fix checkExistingBeadsData to be worktree-aware

The checkExistingBeadsData function in cmd/bd/init.go checks for .beads in the current working directory, but for worktrees it should check the main repository root instead. This prevents proper worktree compatibility.

Update info.go versionChanges

Add 0.32.1 entry to versionChanges map in cmd/bd/info.go


Update local installation

Update local bd to the new version.

Option 1 - Homebrew:
```bash
brew upgrade bd
```

Option 2 - Install script:
```bash
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/steveyegge/beads/main/scripts/install.sh | bash
```

Verify:
```bash
bd --version
```

Should show 0.39.0.


Add external_projects to config schema

Add external_projects mapping to .beads/config.yaml:

```yaml
external_projects:
  beads: ../beads
  gastown: ../gastown
  other: /absolute/path/to/project
```

Used by bd ready and other commands to resolve external: references.

Part of cross-project dependency system.
See: gastown/docs/cross-project-deps.md


Verify version consistency

Confirm all versions match 0.41.0.

```bash
grep 'Version = ' cmd/bd/version.go
jq -r '.version' .claude-plugin/plugin.json
jq -r '.version' npm-package/package.json
grep 'version = ' integrations/beads-mcp/pyproject.toml
```

All should show 0.41.0.


Add .beads-backup-* pattern to gitignore template

Update the gitignore template in doctor package to include backup directories.

## Change
Add `.beads-backup-*/` to the GitignoreTemplate in `cmd/bd/doctor/gitignore.go`

## Why
Backup directories created by `bd reset --backup` should not be committed to git.
They are local-only recovery tools.

## File
`cmd/bd/doctor/gitignore.go` - look for GitignoreTemplate constant


Simplify wisp architecture: single DB with ephemeral flag

## Problem

The current wisp architecture uses a separate .beads-wisp/ directory with its own database. This creates unnecessary complexity:

- Separate directory structure and database initialization
- Parallel routing logic in both beads and gastown
- Merge queries from two stores for inbox/list operations
- All this for what is essentially a boolean flag

## Current State

Gastown mail code has to:
- resolveWispDir() vs resolveBeadsDir()
- Query both, merge results
- Route deletes to correct store

## Proposed Solution

Single database with an ephemeral boolean field on Issue. Behavior:
- bd create --ephemeral sets the flag
- JSONL export SKIPS ephemeral issues (they never sync)
- bd list shows all by default, --ephemeral / --persistent filters
- bd mol squash clears the flag (promotes to permanent, now exports)
- bd wisp gc deletes old ephemeral issues from the db
- No separate directory, no separate routing

## Migration

1. Update beads to support ephemeral flag in main db
2. Update bd wisp commands to work with flag instead of separate dir
3. Update gastown mail to use simple --ephemeral flag (remove all dual-routing)
4. Deprecate .beads-wisp/ directory pattern

## Acceptance Criteria

- Single database for all issues (ephemeral and persistent)
- ephemeral field on Issue type
- JSONL export skips ephemeral issues
- bd create --ephemeral works
- bd mol squash promotes ephemeral to persistent
- Gastown mail uses simple flag, no dual-routing


Enrich MutationEvent with title and assignee

Current MutationEvent only has IssueID, no context. Add Title and Assignee fields so activity feeds can display meaningful info without extra lookups. Emit these fields when creating mutation events in server_core.go.


Centralize error handling patterns in storage layer

80+ instances of inconsistent error handling across sqlite.go with mix of %w, %v, and no wrapping.

Location: internal/storage/sqlite/sqlite.go (throughout)

Problem:
- Some use fmt.Errorf("op failed: %w", err) - correct wrapping
- Some use fmt.Errorf("op failed: %v", err) - loses error chain
- Some return err directly - no context
- Hard to debug production issues
- Can't distinguish error types

Solution: Create internal/storage/sqlite/errors.go:
- Define sentinel errors (ErrNotFound, ErrInvalidID, etc.)
- Create wrapDBError(op string, err error) helper
- Convert sql.ErrNoRows to ErrNotFound
- Always wrap with operation context

Impact: Lost error context; inconsistent messages; hard to debug

Effort: 5-7 hours


Remove top-level comment alias

Remove 'comment' as top-level command. Users should use 'comments add' instead. Reduces command surface area.


UI: Style 'hooked' status in bd list output

Add styling for 'hooked' status in bd list and bd show output.

## Semantic

'hooked' means actively being worked by an agent (GUPP). Should be visually prominent.

## Suggested Styling

- Color: Cyan or bright blue (active, in-flight)
- Distinct from 'in_progress' (which is more passive/cooperative)

## Files to Update

- internal/ui/styles.go - Add case for 'hooked' status


Audit and fix JSONL filename mismatches across all repo clones

## Problem

Multiple clones of repos are configured with different JSONL filenames (issues.jsonl vs beads.jsonl), causing:
1. JSONL files to be resurrected after deletion (one clone pushes issues.jsonl, another pushes beads.jsonl)
2. Agents unable to see issues filed by other agents after sync
3. Merge conflicts and data inconsistencies

## Root Cause

When repos were "bd doctored" or initialized at different times, some got issues.jsonl (old default) and others got beads.jsonl (Beads repo specific). These clones push their respective files, creating duplicates.

## Task

Scan all repo clones under ~/src/ (1-2 levels deep) and standardize their JSONL configuration.

### Step 1: Find all beads-enabled repos

```bash
# Find all directories named 'beads' at levels 1-2 under ~/src/
find ~/src -maxdepth 2 -type d -name beads
```

### Step 2: For each repo found, check configuration

For each directory from Step 1, check:
- Does `.beads/metadata.json` exist?
- What is the `jsonl_export` value?
- What JSONL files actually exist in `.beads/`?
- Are there multiple JSONL files (problem!)?

### Step 3: Create audit report

Generate a report showing:
```
Repo Path                           | Config        | Actual Files           | Status
----------------------------------- | ------------- | ---------------------- | --------
~/src/beads                         | beads.jsonl   | beads.jsonl            | OK
~/src/dave/beads                    | issues.jsonl  | issues.jsonl           | MISMATCH
~/src/emma/beads                    | issues.jsonl  | issues.jsonl, beads.jsonl | DUPLICATE!
```

### Step 4: Determine canonical name for each repo

For repos that are the SAME git repository (check `git remote -v`):
- Group them together
- Determine which JSONL filename should be canonical (majority wins, or beads.jsonl for the beads repo itself)
- List which clones need to be updated

### Step 5: Generate fix script

Create a script that for each mismatched clone:
1. Updates `.beads/metadata.json` to use the canonical name
2. If JSONL file needs renaming: `git mv .beads/old.jsonl .beads/new.jsonl`
3. Removes any duplicate JSONL files: `git rm .beads/duplicate.jsonl`
4. Commits the change
5. Syncs: `bd sync`

### Expected Output

1. Audit report showing all repos and their config status
2. List of repos grouped by git remote (same repository)
3. Fix script or manual instructions for standardizing each repo
4. Verification that after fixes, all clones of the same repo use the same JSONL filename

### Edge Cases

- Handle repos without metadata.json (use default discovery)
- Handle repos with no git remote (standalone/local)
- Handle repos that are not git repositories
- Don't modify repos with uncommitted changes (warn instead)

### Success Criteria

- All clones of the same git repository use the same JSONL filename
- No duplicate JSONL files in any repo
- All configurations documented in metadata.json
- bd doctor passes on all repos


Add stale molecule check to bd doctor

Extend bd doctor to detect stale molecules.

**New check:**
- Name: 'Stale Molecules'
- Category: Workflow
- Severity: Warning (don't fail overall check)

**Detection:**
Reuse logic from bd mol stale command:
- Find mols where Completed >= Total but root is open
- Filter to orphaned (not assigned, not pinned)
- Extra weight if blocking other work

**Output:**
```
⚠ Stale Molecules
  Found 2 complete-but-unclosed molecules:
  - bd-xyz: Version bump v0.36.0 (blocking 1 issue)
  - bd-uvw: Old patrol (not blocking)
  Fix: bd close <id> or bd mol squash <id>
```

**--fix behavior:**
- Auto-close stale mols (with reason 'Auto-closed by bd doctor')
- Or prompt interactively with -i flag

Depends on: bd mol stale command


--parent flag reports success but doesn't persist to JSONL

The --parent flag for bd update reports success but the change doesn't persist.

Reported by: Mayor
Location: show.go:810-814 handles the logic

Symptoms:
- bd update <id> --parent=<new-parent> returns success
- But the parent change is not written to JSONL
- Subsequent bd show reveals parent unchanged

This shipped in v0.39.1 as part of bd-cj2e (--parent flag for reparenting).

Investigation: Check the update path from show.go through to JSONL export. The RPC/daemon layer may be dropping the parent field, or the storage layer isn't persisting it.


Remove deprecated daemon logger function

In cmd/bd/daemon_logger.go:131, there's a TODO to remove a deprecated function once all callers are updated to use the new signature. Need to audit callers and clean up.

File: cmd/bd/daemon_logger.go:131


Molecule execution state management

Implement molecule execution state tracking.

## State Location

```
.beads/molecules/<mol-id>.state.yaml
```

## State Schema

```yaml
id: mol-deacon-patrol
formula: mol-deacon-patrol  # Source formula
bonded_at: ISO timestamp
bonded_by: entity who created it

# Execution state
status: running | paused | completed | failed
current_step: step-id
started_at: ISO timestamp
completed_at: ISO timestamp (if done)

# Loop tracking
reset_count: 0
last_reset_at: null

# Per-step state
steps:
  inbox-check:
    status: completed | in_progress | pending
    started_at: ...
    completed_at: ...
  spawn-work:
    status: pending
  self-inspect:
    status: pending

# Variables (from formula instantiation)
variables:
  rig: gastown
  issue_id: gt-xxx
```

## Operations

- CreateState(molID, formula, variables) - Initialize state
- LoadState(molID) - Read current state
- SaveState(molID, state) - Write state
- AdvanceStep(molID) - Mark current complete, find next
- ResetState(molID) - Reset all steps to pending

## Files

- internal/mol/state.go
- internal/mol/types.go


gt swarm dispatch command not working

The 'gt swarm dispatch' command shown in help doesn't appear to work as expected.

**Observed:**
```
$ gt swarm dispatch bd-784c
[prints help text instead of dispatching]
```

**Expected:**
Should dispatch the next ready task from the epic to an available worker.

**Workaround:**
Had to manually use 'gt sling <issue> <polecat>' for each task dispatch.

**Impact:**
- Manual task dispatch defeats swarm automation
- Coordinator has to track which tasks are ready and which polecats are free

**Suggestion:**
Implement or fix 'gt swarm dispatch' to:
1. Find next unassigned task in epic
2. Find idle polecat in swarm
3. Sling task to polecat automatically

Rename ephemeral → wisp throughout codebase

## The Change

Rename 'ephemeral' to 'wisp' throughout the beads codebase.

## Why

**Ephemeral** is:
- 4 syllables (too long)
- Greek/academic (doesn't match bond/burn/squash)
- Overused in tech (K8s, networking, storage)
- Passive/descriptive

**Wisp** is:
- 1 syllable (matches bond/burn/squash)
- Evocative - you can SEE a wisp
- Steam engine metaphor - Gas Town is engines, steam wisps rise and dissipate
- Will-o'-the-wisp - transient spirits that guide then vanish
- Unique - nobody else uses it

## The Steam Engine Metaphor

```
Engine does work → generates steam
Steam wisps rise → execution trace
Steam condenses → digest (distillate)
Steam dissipates → cleaned up (burned)
```

## Full Vocabulary

| Term | Meaning |
|------|---------|
| bond | Attach proto to work (creates wisps) |
| wisp | Temporary execution step |
| squash | Condense wisps into digest |
| burn | Destroy wisps without record |
| digest | Permanent condensed record |

## Changes Required

### Code
- `Ephemeral bool` → `Wisp bool` in types/issue.go
- `--ephemeral` flag → remove (wisp is default)
- `--persistent` flag → keep as opt-out
- `bd cleanup --ephemeral` → `bd cleanup --wisps`
- Update all references in mol_*.go files

### Docs
- Update all documentation
- Update CLAUDE.md examples
- Update CLI help text

### Database Migration
- Add migration to rename field (or keep internal name, just change API)

## Example Usage After

```bash
bd mol bond mol-polecat-work   # Creates wisps (default)
bd mol bond mol-xxx --persistent  # Creates permanent issues
bd mol squash bd-xxx           # Condenses wisps → digest
bd cleanup --wisps             # Clean old wisps
bd list --wisps                # Show wisp issues
```


Add covering index (label, issue_id) for label queries

GetIssuesByLabel joins labels table but requires table lookup after using idx_labels_label.

**Query (labels.go:165):**
```sql
SELECT ... FROM issues i
JOIN labels l ON i.id = l.issue_id
WHERE l.label = ?
```

**Problem:** Current idx_labels_label index doesn't cover issue_id, requiring row lookup.

**Solution:** Add migration:
```sql
CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS idx_labels_label_issue ON labels(label, issue_id);
```

This is a covering index - query can be satisfied entirely from the index without touching the labels table rows.
