Auto-recovery mode (bd sync --auto-recover)

Add bd sync --auto-recover flag that: detects problematic sync state, backs up .beads/issues.db with timestamp, rebuilds DB from JSONL atomically, verifies consistency, reports what was fixed. Provides safety valve when sync integrity fails.


Update docs for import bug fix

Update AGENTS.md, README.md, TROUBLESHOOTING.md with import.orphan_handling config documentation. Document resurrection behavior, tombstones, config modes. Add troubleshooting section for import failures with deleted parents.


GH#522: Add --type flag to bd update command

Add --type flag to bd update for changing issue type (task/epic/bug/feature). Storage layer already supports it. See GitHub issue #522.

Code review: bd mol bond implementation

Review the mol bond command implementation before shipping.

Focus areas:
1. runMolBond() - polymorphic dispatch logic correctness
2. bondProtoProto() - compound proto creation, dependency wiring
3. bondProtoMol() / bondMolProto() - spawn and attach logic
4. bondMolMol() - joining molecules, lineage tracking
5. BondRef usage - is lineage tracked correctly?
6. Error handling - are all failure modes covered?
7. Edge cases - what could go wrong?

Document labels-as-state pattern for operational state

Labels on role beads cache current operational state for fast queries.

Convention: <dimension>:<value>
- patrol:muted / patrol:active
- mode:degraded / mode:normal
- status:idle / status:working

Pattern:
1. Create event bead (full context, immutable history)
2. Update role bead labels (current state cache)

No schema change needed - labels already exist. This task:
- Document the convention in beads docs
- Consider helper: bd state <role> <dimension> (queries label)
- Consider helper: bd set-state <role> <dimension>=<value> (creates event + updates label)

Events are source of truth. Labels are cache.


Add bd state and bd set-state helper commands

Convenience commands for the labels-as-state pattern documented in LABELS.md.

`bd state <role> <dimension>` - Query the current value of a state dimension
Example: bd state witness-alpha patrol → outputs: active

`bd set-state <role> <dimension>=<value> [--reason "..."]` - Atomically creates an event bead and updates the label
Example: bd set-state witness-alpha patrol=muted --reason "Investigating stuck polecat"

This would combine the manual steps:
1. bd create "<reason>" -t event --parent <role>
2. bd label remove <role> <dimension>:<old-value>
3. bd label add <role> <dimension>:<new-value>

Into a single atomic operation.

Verify version consistency

Confirm all versions match 0.39.0.

```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 0.39.0.


Show pin indicator in bd list output

Add a visual indicator (e.g., pin emoji or [P] marker) for pinned issues in bd list output so users can easily identify them.


Review changes since last release

Understand what's being released.

```bash
git log $(git describe --tags --abbrev=0)..HEAD --oneline

Investigate incremental blocked_issues_cache updates at scale

Current blocked_issues_cache strategy does full DELETE + INSERT on every dependency/status change.

**Problem at scale:**
- 10K issues: ~50ms rebuild (acceptable)
- 100K issues: ~500ms rebuild (noticeable)
- 1M issues: multi-second rebuilds (problematic)

**Current implementation (blocked_cache.go:104-154):**
- DELETE FROM blocked_issues_cache
- INSERT with recursive CTE

**Potential optimizations:**
1. **Incremental updates:** Only add/remove affected issue IDs instead of full rebuild
2. **Dirty tracking:** Skip rebuild if cache is already valid
3. **Async rebuild:** Rebuild in background, serve stale cache briefly
4. **Partial invalidation:** Only invalidate affected subtree

**Decision needed:** Is this premature optimization? Current target is <100K issues.

**Benchmark:** Add benchmark for cache rebuild at 100K scale to measure actual impact.


Update npm-package/package.json to 0.30.4

Update version field in npm-package/package.json:
```json
"version": "0.30.4"
```

```verify
jq -e '.version == "0.30.4"' npm-package/package.json
```


Create migration script for edge field to dependency conversion

Migration must:
1. Read existing JSONL with old fields
2. Convert field values to dependency records
3. Write updated JSONL without old fields
4. Handle edge cases (missing refs, duplicates)

Run via: bd migrate or automatic on bd prime

mol-beads-release

Release checklist for beads version {{version}}.

This molecule ensures all release steps are completed properly.
Variable: {{version}} - target version (e.g., 0.35.0)

## Step: update-release-notes
Update cmd/bd/info.go with release notes for {{version}}.

Add a new VersionChange entry at the top of versionChanges slice:
```go
{
    Version: "{{version}}",
    Date:    "YYYY-MM-DD",
    Changes: []string{
        "NEW: Feature description",
        "FIX: Bug fix description",
        "IMPROVED: Enhancement description",
    },
},
```

Run `git log --oneline v<previous>..HEAD` to see what changed.

## Step: update-changelog
Update CHANGELOG.md with detailed release notes.

Add a new section after [Unreleased]:
```markdown
## [{{version}}] - YYYY-MM-DD

### Added
- **Feature name** (issue-id) - Description

### Changed
- **Change description** (issue-id)

### Fixed
- **Bug fix** (issue-id) - Description
```

Sort by importance, not chronologically.
Needs: update-release-notes

## Step: bump-version
Run the version bump script.

```bash
./scripts/bump-version.sh {{version}}
```

This updates version in all files:
- cmd/bd/version.go
- .claude-plugin/*.json
- integrations/beads-mcp/pyproject.toml
- npm-package/package.json
- Hook templates

Needs: update-changelog

## Step: run-tests
Run tests and verify lint passes.

```bash
go test -short ./...
```

CI will run full lint, but fix any obvious issues first.
Needs: bump-version

## Step: commit-release
Commit the release changes.

```bash
git add -A
git commit -m "chore: bump version to v{{version}}"
```

Needs: run-tests

## Step: push-and-tag
Push commit and create release tag.

```bash
git push origin main
git tag v{{version}}
git push origin v{{version}}
```

This triggers GitHub Actions release workflow.
Needs: commit-release

## Step: wait-for-ci
Wait for GitHub Actions to complete.

Monitor: https://github.com/steveyegge/beads/actions

CI will:
- Build binaries via GoReleaser
- Create GitHub Release with assets
- Publish to npm (@beads/bd)
- Publish to PyPI (beads-mcp)
- Update Homebrew tap

Wait until all jobs succeed (~5-10 min).
Needs: push-and-tag

## Step: verify-release
Verify the release is complete.

```bash
# Check GitHub release
gh release view v{{version}}

# Check Homebrew
brew update && brew info steveyegge/beads/bd

# Check npm
npm view @beads/bd version

# Check PyPI
pip index versions beads-mcp
```

Needs: wait-for-ci

## Step: update-local
Update local installations with proper codesigning (macOS).

```bash
# Build from source in mayor/rig (canonical build location)
cd ~/gt/beads/mayor/rig
git pull
go build -o bd ./cmd/bd

# Sign and install (macOS requires codesigning to avoid "Killed: 9")
# Uses fix-gt script which handles both gt and bd binaries
fix-gt

# Or manually sign if fix-gt not available:
# xattr -cr bd && codesign -f -s - bd
# cp bd ~/go/bin/bd && codesign -f -s - ~/go/bin/bd
# cp bd ~/.local/bin/bd && codesign -f -s - ~/.local/bin/bd

# Install MCP locally
pip install -e integrations/beads-mcp

# Restart daemons
pkill -f "bd daemon" || true
```

Verify: `bd --version` shows {{version}}
Needs: verify-release

## Step: manual-publish
(Optional) Manual publish if CI failed.

```bash
# npm (requires npm login)
./scripts/bump-version.sh {{version}} --publish-npm

# PyPI (requires TWINE credentials)
./scripts/bump-version.sh {{version}} --publish-pypi

# Or both
./scripts/bump-version.sh {{version}} --publish-all
```

Only needed if CI publishing failed.
Needs: wait-for-ci


Code review: mol squash deletion bypasses tombstone system

The deleteEphemeralChildren function in mol_squash.go uses DeleteIssue directly instead of the proper deletion flow. This bypasses tombstone creation, deletion tracking (deletions.jsonl), and dependency cleanup. Could cause issues with deletion propagation across clones.

Current code uses d.DeleteIssue(ctx, id) but should probably use d.DeleteIssues(ctx, ids, false, true, false) for proper tombstone handling.

Alternative: Document that ephemeral issues intentionally use hard delete since they are transient and should never propagate to other clones anyway.


Improve test coverage for internal/beads (48.1% → 70%)

Improve test coverage for internal/beads package from 48% to 70%.

## Current State
- Coverage: 48.4%
- Files: beads.go, fingerprint.go
- Tests: beads_test.go (moderate coverage)

## Functions Needing Tests

### beads.go (database discovery)
- [ ] followRedirect - needs redirect file tests
- [ ] findDatabaseInBeadsDir - needs various dir structures
- [x] NewSQLiteStorage - likely covered
- [ ] FindDatabasePath - needs BEADS_DB env var tests
- [ ] hasBeadsProjectFiles - needs file existence tests
- [ ] FindBeadsDir - needs directory traversal tests
- [ ] FindJSONLPath - needs path derivation tests
- [ ] findGitRoot - needs git repo tests
- [ ] findDatabaseInTree - needs nested directory tests
- [ ] FindAllDatabases - needs multi-database tests
- [ ] FindWispDir - needs wisp directory tests
- [ ] FindWispDatabasePath - needs wisp path tests
- [ ] NewWispStorage - needs wisp storage tests
- [ ] EnsureWispGitignore - needs gitignore creation tests
- [ ] IsWispDatabase - needs path classification tests

### fingerprint.go (repo identification)
- [ ] ComputeRepoID - needs various remote URL tests
- [ ] canonicalizeGitURL - needs URL normalization tests
- [ ] GetCloneID - needs clone identification tests

## Implementation Guide

1. **Use temp directories:**
   ```go
   func TestFindBeadsDir(t *testing.T) {
       tmpDir := t.TempDir()
       beadsDir := filepath.Join(tmpDir, ".beads")
       os.MkdirAll(beadsDir, 0755)

       // Create test files
       os.WriteFile(filepath.Join(beadsDir, "beads.db"), []byte{}, 0644)

       // Change to tmpDir and test
       oldWd, _ := os.Getwd()
       os.Chdir(tmpDir)
       defer os.Chdir(oldWd)

       result := FindBeadsDir()
       assert.Equal(t, beadsDir, result)
   }
   ```

2. **Test scenarios:**
   - BEADS_DB environment variable set
   - .beads/ in current directory
   - .beads/ in parent directory
   - Redirect file pointing elsewhere
   - No beads directory found
   - Wisp directory alongside main beads

3. **Git remote URL tests:**
   ```go
   tests := []struct{
       input    string
       expected string
   }{
       {"git@github.com:user/repo.git", "github.com/user/repo"},
       {"https://github.com/user/repo", "github.com/user/repo"},
       {"ssh://git@github.com/user/repo.git", "github.com/user/repo"},
   }
   ```

## Success Criteria
- Coverage ≥ 70%
- All FindXxx functions have tests
- Environment variable handling tested
- Edge cases (missing dirs, redirects) covered

## Run Tests
```bash
go test -v -cover ./internal/beads
go test -race ./internal/beads
```

Gate eval: Add error visibility for gh CLI failures

Currently evalGHRunGate and evalGHPRGate silently swallow errors when the gh CLI fails (lines 738-741, 780-783 in gate.go).

This makes debugging difficult - if gh isn't installed, auth fails, or network issues occur, gates silently stall forever with no indication of why.

Options:
1. Add debug logging when gh fails
2. Return error info in the skipped list for aggregate reporting
3. Add a --verbose flag to gate eval that shows failures

Low priority since the fail-safe behavior (don't close gate on error) is correct.

Code smell: Incomplete TODOs in formula/types.go

internal/formula/types.go has multiple TODO items for features that are defined in the schema but not implemented:

- Line 170: Expand field not implemented in bd cook
- Line 174: ExpandVars field not implemented
- Line 179: Gate integration pending (bd-udsi gates)
- Line 186: Condition evaluation not implemented
- Line 210: Additional expansion features

**Problem:**
- Schema defines features that aren't implemented
- Can confuse users who try to use these fields
- Creates maintenance burden of unused code paths

**Acceptance Criteria:**
- [ ] Either implement the features OR
- [ ] Remove unimplemented fields from schema OR
- [ ] Document clearly which fields are future-only
- [ ] Update related beads issues if they exist


Implement bd pin/unpin commands

Add 'bd pin <id>' and 'bd unpin <id>' commands to toggle the pinned status of issues. Should support multiple IDs like other bd commands.
