Add bd doctor --fix flag to automatically repair issues

Add bd doctor --fix flag to automatically repair detected issues.

## Current State
- Doctor checks return issues with "Fix" field containing fix instructions
- No automatic fix execution
- User must manually follow fix instructions

## Implementation

### 1. Add --fix flag to doctor.go
```go
// In cmd/bd/doctor.go init()
doctorCmd.Flags().Bool("fix", false, "Automatically fix detected issues")
doctorCmd.Flags().Bool("yes", false, "Skip confirmation prompts (use with --fix)")
```

### 2. Create fix registry (cmd/bd/doctor/fix/registry.go)
```go
package fix

// Fixer can automatically repair an issue
type Fixer interface {
    // CanFix returns true if this fixer handles the given check name
    CanFix(checkName string) bool
    // Fix attempts to repair the issue, returns error if failed
    Fix(ctx context.Context, issue *CheckResult) error
    // Description returns human-readable description of what will be fixed
    Description() string
}

var registry []Fixer

func Register(f Fixer) {
    registry = append(registry, f)
}

func GetFixer(checkName string) Fixer {
    for _, f := range registry {
        if f.CanFix(checkName) {
            return f
        }
    }
    return nil
}
```

### 3. Implement fixers (one per file)

**cmd/bd/doctor/fix/hooks.go**
```go
type HooksFixer struct{}

func (f *HooksFixer) CanFix(name string) bool {
    return name == "git-hooks" || name == "hooks-outdated"
}

func (f *HooksFixer) Fix(ctx context.Context, issue *CheckResult) error {
    return hooks.Install(".", true) // force reinstall
}

func (f *HooksFixer) Description() string {
    return "Reinstall git hooks"
}

func init() {
    Register(&HooksFixer{})
}
```

**cmd/bd/doctor/fix/sync_branch.go**
```go
type SyncBranchFixer struct{}

func (f *SyncBranchFixer) CanFix(name string) bool {
    return name == "sync-branch-missing" || name == "sync-branch-diverged"
}

func (f *SyncBranchFixer) Fix(ctx context.Context, issue *CheckResult) error {
    // Reset to remote or create branch
    return syncbranch.ResetToRemote(ctx, repoRoot, branch, jsonlPath)
}
```

**cmd/bd/doctor/fix/merge_driver.go**
```go
type MergeDriverFixer struct{}

func (f *MergeDriverFixer) CanFix(name string) bool {
    return name == "merge-driver-missing" || name == "merge-driver-outdated"
}

func (f *MergeDriverFixer) Fix(ctx context.Context, issue *CheckResult) error {
    return setupMergeDriver()
}
```

### 4. Update doctor run logic

```go
func runDoctor(cmd *cobra.Command, args []string) {
    issues := runAllChecks()

    if \!fixFlag {
        // Existing behavior - just display issues
        displayIssues(issues)
        return
    }

    // Collect fixable issues
    var fixable []FixableIssue
    for _, issue := range issues {
        if fixer := fix.GetFixer(issue.CheckName); fixer \!= nil {
            fixable = append(fixable, FixableIssue{issue, fixer})
        }
    }

    if len(fixable) == 0 {
        fmt.Println("No automatically fixable issues found")
        return
    }

    // Show what will be fixed
    fmt.Printf("Found %d fixable issues:\n", len(fixable))
    for i, f := range fixable {
        fmt.Printf("  %d. [%s] %s\n", i+1, f.Issue.CheckName, f.Fixer.Description())
    }

    // Confirm unless --yes
    if \!yesFlag {
        fmt.Print("\nProceed with fixes? [Y/n] ")
        // ... read confirmation
    }

    // Apply fixes
    for _, f := range fixable {
        fmt.Printf("Fixing %s... ", f.Issue.CheckName)
        if err := f.Fixer.Fix(ctx, f.Issue); err \!= nil {
            fmt.Printf("FAILED: %v\n", err)
        } else {
            fmt.Println("OK")
        }
    }
}
```

## Fixable Checks (Initial Set)

| Check | Fixer | Action |
|-------|-------|--------|
| git-hooks | HooksFixer | Reinstall hooks |
| hooks-outdated | HooksFixer | Update hooks |
| merge-driver-missing | MergeDriverFixer | Configure merge driver |
| sync-branch-diverged | SyncBranchFixer | Reset to remote |
| daemon-version-mismatch | DaemonFixer | Restart daemon |

## Testing
```bash
# Test with broken hooks
rm .git/hooks/pre-commit
bd doctor --fix --yes

# Verify fix applied
bd doctor  # Should pass now
```

## Success Criteria
- --fix flag triggers automatic repair
- User prompted for confirmation (unless --yes)
- Clear output showing what was fixed
- Graceful handling of fix failures
- At least 5 common issues auto-fixable


GH#518: Document bd setup command

bd setup is undiscoverable. Add to README/docs. Currently only findable by grepping source. See GitHub issue #518.


bd dep tree doesn't display external dependencies

GetDependencyTree (dependencies.go:464-624) uses a recursive CTE that JOINs with the issues table, which means external refs (external:project:capability) are invisible in the tree output.

When an issue has an external blocking dependency, running 'bd dep tree <id>' won't show it.

Options:
1. Query dependencies table separately for external refs and display them as leaf nodes
2. Add a synthetic 'external' node type that shows the ref and resolution status
3. Document that external deps aren't shown in tree view (use bd show for full deps)

Lower priority since bd show <id> displays all dependencies including external refs.


Commit changes and create v0.30.4 tag

```bash
git add -A
git commit -m "chore: Bump version to 0.30.4"
git tag -a v0.30.4 -m "Release v0.30.4"
```

```verify
git describe --tags --exact-match HEAD 2>/dev/null | grep -q 'v0.30.4'
```


bd ready resolves external dependencies

Extend bd ready to check external blocked_by references:

1. Parse external:<project>:<capability> from blocked_by
2. Look up project path from external_projects config
3. Check if target project has provides:<capability> label on a closed issue
4. If not satisfied, issue is blocked

Example output:
```bash
bd ready
# gt-xyz: blocked by external:beads:mol-run-assignee (not provided)
# gt-abc: ready
```

Depends on: bd-om4a (external: prefix), bd-66w1 (config)

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


Phase 2.2: Switch bdt storage to TOON format

Currently bdt stores issues in JSONL format in issues.toon file. Phase 2.2 must implement actual TOON format storage - this is the fundamental goal of the bdtoon project.

## Current State (Phase 2.1)
- issues.toon stores JSONL (intermediate format)
- --toon flag allows output in TOON format for LLM consumption
- Problem: We're not actually using TOON as the fundamental storage format

## Required Work (Phase 2.2)
1. Switch issue file I/O to write TOON format instead of JSONL
   - Update cmd/bdt/storage.go to use EncodeTOON for writing
   - Update cmd/bdt/storage.go to decode TOON (currently decodes JSON)
   - Ensure round-trip: write TOON → read TOON → write TOON is byte-identical

2. Update command implementations
   - cmd/bdt/create.go: Write newly created issues to TOON format
   - cmd/bdt/list.go: Read issues from TOON format
   - cmd/bdt/show.go: Read from TOON format
   - cmd/bdt/import.go: Convert imported JSONL to TOON
   - cmd/bdt/export.go: Export TOON to JSONL (for bd compatibility)

3. Implement TOON parser that handles gotoon's encoder-only limitation
   - Since gotoon doesn't decode TOON, need custom TOON→JSON decoder
   - OR continue storing TOON but decoding via intermediate JSON conversion

4. Git merge driver optimization
   - TOON is line-oriented, better for 3-way merges than binary formats
   - Configure git merge driver for .toon files

5. Comprehensive testing
   - Round-trip tests: Issue → TOON → storage → read → Issue
   - Merge conflict resolution tests with TOON format
   - Large issue set performance tests

## Success Criteria
- issues.toon stores actual TOON format (not JSONL)
- bdt list reads from TOON file
- bdt create writes to TOON file
- Round-trip: create issue → list → show returns identical data
- All 65+ tests still passing
- Performance comparable to JSONL storage

Add --hard flag to bd cleanup to permanently cull tombstones before cutoff date

Currently tombstones persist for 30 days before cleanup prunes them. Need an official way to force-cull tombstones earlier than the default TTL, for scenarios like cleaning house after extended absence where resurrection from old clones is not a concern. Proposed: bd cleanup --hard --older-than N to bypass the 30-day tombstone TTL.

Graph Link: replies_to for conversation threading

Implement replies_to link type for message threading.

New command:
- bd mail reply <id> -m 'Response' creates a message with replies_to set

Query support:
- bd show <id> --thread shows full conversation thread
- Thread traversal in storage layer

Storage:
- replies_to column in issues table
- Index for efficient thread queries

This enables Reddit-style nested threads where messages reply to other messages.


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
```


bd init UX Improvements

bd init leaves users with incomplete setup, requiring manual bd doctor --fix. Issues found: (1) git hooks not installed if user declines prompt, (2) no auto-migration when CLI is upgraded, (3) stale merge driver configs from old versions. Fix by making bd init more robust with better defaults and auto-migration.


Update info.go versionChanges

Add entry to versionChanges in cmd/bd/info.go with agent-actionable changes for {{version}}


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.


Tier 3: AI-powered squash summarization

## Design: Agent-Provided Summarization (Inversion of Control)

bd is a tool FOR agents, not an agent itself. The calling agent provides
the summary; bd just stores it.

### API

```bash
# Agent generates summary, passes to bd
bd mol squash bd-xxx --summary "Agent-generated summary here"

# Without --summary, falls back to basic concatenation
bd mol squash bd-xxx
```

### Gas Town Integration Pattern

```go
// In polecat completion handler or witness
raw := exec.Command("bd", "mol", "show", molID, "--json").Output()
summary := callHaiku(buildSummaryPrompt(raw))  // agent's job
exec.Command("bd", "mol", "squash", molID, "--summary", summary).Run()
```

### Why This Design

| Concern | bd's job | Agent's job |
|---------|----------|-------------|
| Store data | ✅ | |
| Query data | ✅ | |
| Generate summaries | | ✅ |
| Call LLMs | | ✅ |
| Manage API keys | | ✅ |

### Implementation Status

- [x] --summary flag added to bd mol squash
- [x] Tests for agent-provided summary
- [ ] Gas Town integration (separate task)

### Acceptance Criteria

- ✅ bd mol squash --summary uses provided text
- ✅ Without --summary, falls back to concatenation
- ✅ No LLM calls in bd itself

Wait for CI to pass

Monitor GitHub Actions - all checks must pass before release artifacts are built


Add integration tests for RPC server and event loops

After adding basic unit tests for daemon utilities, the complex daemon functions still need integration tests:

Core daemon lifecycle:
- startRPCServer: Initializes and starts RPC server with proper error handling
- runEventLoop: Polling-based sync loop with parent monitoring and signal handling
- runDaemonLoop: Main daemon initialization and setup

Health checking:
- isDaemonHealthy: Checks daemon responsiveness and health metrics
- checkDaemonHealth: Periodic health verification

These require more complex test infrastructure (mock RPC, test contexts, signal handling) and should be tackled after the unit test foundation is in place.

HANDOFF: Molecule bonding - spawn done, bond next

## Context

Continuing work on bd-o5xe (Molecule bonding epic).

## Completed This Session

- bd-mh4w: Renamed bond to spawn in mol.go
- bd-rnnr: Added BondRef data model to types.go

## Now Unblocked

1. bd-o91r: Polymorphic bond command [P1]
2. bd-iw4z: Compound visualization [P2]
3. bd-iq19: Distill command [P2]

## Key Files

- cmd/bd/mol.go
- internal/types/types.go

## Next Step

Start with bd-o91r. Run bd show bd-o5xe for context.


Add tests for validation functions

Validation functions like ParseIssueType have 0% coverage. These are critical for ensuring data quality and preventing invalid data from entering the system.


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.


Wisp storage: ephemeral molecule tracking

Implement ephemeral molecule storage for patrol cycles.

## Architecture

Wisps are ephemeral molecules stored in `.beads-wisps/` (gitignored).
When squashed, they create digests in permanent `.beads/`.

**Storage is per-rig, not per-role**: Witness and Refinery share mayor/rig's
`.beads-wisps/` since they execute from that context.

## Design Doc
See: gastown/mayor/rig/docs/wisp-architecture.md

## Key Requirements

1. **Ephemeral storage**: `.beads-wisps/` directory, gitignored
2. **Bond with --wisp**: Creates in wisps instead of permanent
3. **Squash**: Deletes wisp, creates digest in permanent beads
4. **Burn**: Deletes wisp, no digest
5. **Wisp commands**: `bd wisp list`, `bd wisp gc`

## Storage Locations

| Context | Location |
|---------|----------|
| Rig (Deacon, Witness, Refinery) | mayor/rig/.beads-wisps/ |
| Polecat (if used) | polecats/<name>/.beads-wisps/ |

## Children (to be created)
- bd mol bond --wisp flag
- .beads-wisps/ storage backend
- bd mol squash handles wisp to permanent
- bd wisp list command
- bd wisp gc command (orphan cleanup)

Split large cmd/bd files: doctor.go (2948 lines), sync.go (2121 lines)

Code health review found several oversized files:

1. doctor.go - 2948 lines, 48 functions mixed together
   - Should split into doctor/checks/*.go for individual diagnostics
   - applyFixes() and previewFixes() are nearly identical

2. sync.go - 2121 lines
   - ZFC (Zero Flush Check) logic embedded inline (lines 213-247)
   - Multiple mode handlers should be extracted

3. init.go - 1732 lines
4. compact.go - 1097 lines
5. show.go - 1069 lines

Recommendation: Extract into focused sub-packages or split into logical files.

## Implementation

### 1. Add check categories (cmd/bd/doctor/categories.go)

```go
type Category string

const (
    CatDatabase  Category = "Database"
    CatHooks     Category = "Git Hooks"
    CatSync      Category = "Sync"
    CatDaemon    Category = "Daemon"
    CatConfig    Category = "Configuration"
    CatIntegrity Category = "Data Integrity"
)

// Assign categories to checks
var checkCategories = map[string]Category{
    "database-exists":     CatDatabase,
    "database-readable":   CatDatabase,
    "schema-version":      CatDatabase,
    "pre-commit-hook":     CatHooks,
    "post-merge-hook":     CatHooks,
    "hooks-version":       CatHooks,
    "sync-branch":         CatSync,
    "remote-access":       CatSync,
    // ... etc
}
```

### 2. Add --verbose flag

```go
// In cmd/bd/doctor.go init()
doctorCmd.Flags().BoolP("verbose", "v", false, "Show all checks including passed")
```

### 3. Create formatter (cmd/bd/doctor/format.go)

```go
type Formatter struct {
    verbose bool
    noColor bool
}

func (f *Formatter) Format(results []CheckResult) string {
    var buf strings.Builder

    // Count by status
    passed, warnings, errors := countByStatus(results)

    // Header
    buf.WriteString(fmt.Sprintf("bd doctor v%s\n\n", version.Version))
    buf.WriteString(fmt.Sprintf("Summary: %d passed, %d warnings, %d errors\n\n",
        passed, warnings, errors))

    // Errors section (always show)
    if errors > 0 {
        f.writeSection(&buf, "✗ Errors", filterByStatus(results, StatusError))
    }

    // Warnings section (always show)
    if warnings > 0 {
        f.writeSection(&buf, "⚠ Warnings", filterByStatus(results, StatusWarning))
    }

    // Passed section (only with --verbose)
    if f.verbose && passed > 0 {
        f.writePassedSection(&buf, filterByStatus(results, StatusPassed))
    } else if passed > 0 {
        buf.WriteString(fmt.Sprintf("✓ Passed (%d)  [use --verbose to show details]\n", passed))
    }

    return buf.String()
}

func (f *Formatter) writeSection(buf *strings.Builder, title string, results []CheckResult) {
    buf.WriteString("─────────────────────────────────────────────────\n")
    buf.WriteString(title + "\n")
    buf.WriteString("─────────────────────────────────────────────────\n\n")

    for _, r := range results {
        buf.WriteString(fmt.Sprintf("[%s] %s\n", r.CheckName, r.Message))
        if r.Details != "" {
            buf.WriteString(fmt.Sprintf("  %s\n", r.Details))
        }
        if r.Fix != "" {
            buf.WriteString(fmt.Sprintf("  Fix: %s\n", r.Fix))
        }
        buf.WriteString("\n")
    }
}

func (f *Formatter) writePassedSection(buf *strings.Builder, results []CheckResult) {
    // Group by category
    byCategory := groupByCategory(results)

    buf.WriteString("─────────────────────────────────────────────────\n")
    buf.WriteString(fmt.Sprintf("✓ Passed (%d)\n", len(results)))
    buf.WriteString("─────────────────────────────────────────────────\n\n")

    for _, cat := range categoryOrder {
        if checks, ok := byCategory[cat]; ok {
            buf.WriteString(fmt.Sprintf("  %s\n", cat))
            for _, r := range checks {
                buf.WriteString(fmt.Sprintf("    ✓ %s\n", r.Message))
            }
            buf.WriteString("\n")
        }
    }
}
```

### 4. Update run function

```go
func runDoctor(cmd *cobra.Command, args []string) {
    verbose, _ := cmd.Flags().GetBool("verbose")
    noColor, _ := cmd.Flags().GetBool("no-color")

    results := runAllChecks()

    formatter := &Formatter{verbose: verbose, noColor: noColor}
    fmt.Print(formatter.Format(results))

    // Exit code based on results
    if hasErrors(results) {
        os.Exit(1)
    }
}
```

## Files to Modify

1. **cmd/bd/doctor.go** - Add --verbose flag, update run function
2. **cmd/bd/doctor/format.go** - New file for formatting logic
3. **cmd/bd/doctor/categories.go** - New file for check categorization
4. **cmd/bd/doctor/common.go** - Add Status field to CheckResult if missing

## Testing

```bash
# Default output (concise)
bd doctor

# Verbose output
bd doctor --verbose

# JSON output (should still work)
bd doctor --json
```

## Success Criteria
- Summary line at top with counts
- Only failures/warnings shown by default
- --verbose shows grouped passed checks
- Visual separators between sections
- Exit code 1 if errors, 0 otherwise


bd sync --from-main fails: unknown flag --no-git-history


Restart running daemons

Kill and restart any running bd daemons to pick up new version: pkill -f 'bd daemon' && bd daemon --start


Add global verbosity flags (--verbose, --quiet)

Add consistent verbosity controls across all commands.

**Current state:**
- bd init has --quiet flag
- No other commands have verbosity controls
- Debug output controlled by BD_VERBOSE env var

**Proposal:**
Add persistent flags:
- --verbose / -v: Enable debug output
- --quiet / -q: Suppress non-essential output

**Implementation:**
- Add to rootCmd.PersistentFlags()
- Replace BD_VERBOSE checks with flag checks
- Standardize output levels:
  * Quiet: Errors only
  * Normal: Errors + success messages
  * Verbose: Errors + success + debug info

**Files to modify:**
- cmd/bd/main.go (add flags)
- internal/debug/debug.go (respect flags)
- Update all commands to respect quiet mode

**Testing:**
- Verify --verbose shows debug output
- Verify --quiet suppresses normal output
- Ensure errors always show regardless of mode


Thread Test

Testing the thread feature


Consider FTS5 for text search at scale

SearchIssues uses LIKE patterns for text search which can't use indexes.

**Current query (queries.go:1475-1477):**
```sql
(title LIKE ? OR description LIKE ? OR id LIKE ?)
```

**Problem:** Full table scan on every text search. At 100K+ issues, this becomes slow.

**SQLite FTS5 solution:**
```sql
CREATE VIRTUAL TABLE issues_fts USING fts5(
  id, title, description, design, notes,
  content='issues',
  content_rowid='rowid'
);

-- Triggers to keep FTS in sync
CREATE TRIGGER issues_ai AFTER INSERT ON issues BEGIN
  INSERT INTO issues_fts(rowid, id, title, description, design, notes)
  VALUES (new.rowid, new.id, new.title, new.description, new.design, new.notes);
END;
-- (similar for UPDATE, DELETE)
```

**Trade-offs:**
- Database size increase (~30-50% for text content)
- Additional write overhead (trigger execution)
- Better search capabilities (ranking, phrase search)

**Decision needed:** Is full-text search a priority feature? Current LIKE search may be acceptable for most use cases.

**Benchmark first:** Measure SearchIssues at 100K scale before implementing.


Install 0.30.4 MCP server locally

Upgrade the MCP server (after PyPI publish):
```bash
pip install --upgrade beads-mcp
# OR if using uv:
uv tool upgrade beads-mcp
```

Verify:
```bash
pip show beads-mcp | grep Version
```

```verify
pip show beads-mcp 2>/dev/null | grep -q 'Version: 0.30.4'
```


Replace map[string]interface{} with typed JSON response structs

Many CLI commands use map[string]interface{} for JSON output which loses type safety and compile-time error detection.

Files with map[string]interface{}:
- cmd/bd/compact.go (10+ instances)
- cmd/bd/cleanup.go
- cmd/bd/daemons.go
- cmd/bd/daemon_lifecycle.go

Example fix:
```go
// Before
result := map[string]interface{}{
    "status": "ok",
    "count": 42,
}

// After
type CompactResponse struct {
    Status string `json:"status"`
    Count  int    `json:"count"`
}
result := CompactResponse{Status: "ok", Count: 42}
```

Benefits:
- Compile-time type checking
- IDE autocompletion
- Easier refactoring
- Self-documenting API


Bump version in all files

Run ./scripts/bump-version.sh 0.33.2 to update 10 version files. Then run with --commit after info.go is updated.


Import reports misleading '0 created, 0 updated' when actually importing all issues

When running 'bd import' on a fresh database (no existing issues), the command reports 'Import complete: 0 created, 0 updated' even though it successfully imported all issues from the JSONL file.

**Steps to reproduce:**
1. Delete .beads/beads.db
2. Run: bd import .beads/issues.jsonl
3. Observe output: 'Import complete: 0 created, 0 updated'
4. Run: bd list
5. Confirm: All issues are actually present in the database

**Expected behavior:**
Report the actual number of issues imported, e.g., 'Import complete: 523 created, 0 updated'

**Actual behavior:**
'Import complete: 0 created, 0 updated' (misleading - makes user think import failed)

**Impact:**
- Users think import failed when it succeeded
- Confusing during database sync operations (e.g., after git pull)
- Makes debugging harder (can't tell if import actually worked)

**Context:**
Discovered during VC session when syncing database after git pull. The misleading message caused confusion about whether the database was properly synced with the canonical JSONL file.


bd close --continue: auto-advance to next molecule step

Add --continue flag to bd close for seamless molecule step transitions.

## Usage

bd close <step-id> --continue [--no-auto]

## Behavior

1. Closes the specified step
2. Finds next ready step in same molecule (sibling/child)
3. By default, marks it in_progress (--no-auto to skip)
4. Outputs the transition

## Output

[done] Closed gt-abc.3: Implement feature

Next ready in molecule:
  gt-abc.4: Write tests

[arrow] Marked in_progress (use --no-auto to skip)

## If no next step

[done] Closed gt-abc.6: Exit decision

Molecule gt-abc complete! All steps closed.
Consider: bd mol squash gt-abc --summary '...'

## Key behaviors
- Detects parent molecule from closed step
- Finds next unblocked sibling
- Auto-claims by default (propulsion principle)
- Graceful handling when molecule is complete

## Gas Town integration
- gt-lz13: Update templates with nav workflow
- gt-um6q: Update docs with nav workflow


.beads-ephemeral/ storage backend

Implement ephemeral storage layer for wisps.

## Requirements
- New storage location: .beads-ephemeral/issues.jsonl (sibling to .beads/)
- Gitignored by default (add to .beads/.gitignore)
- Same JSONL format as regular beads
- Config option: ephemeral.directory (relative path)
- ephemeral.enabled config flag

## Storage Behavior
- Ephemeral issues have ephemeral: true field
- No sync to remote (local only)
- No daemon tracking needed (transient)

## Implementation
- Add EphemeralStore in storage package
- Initialize on demand when --ephemeral flag used
- Share Issue struct, just different storage path


Dynamic Molecule Bonding: Fanout patterns for patrol molecules

## Vision

Enable molecules to dynamically spawn child molecules at runtime based on discovered
work. This is the foundation for the "Christmas Ornament" pattern where a patrol
molecule grows arms per-polecat.

## The Activity Feed Vision

Instead of parsing agent logs, users see structured work state:

```
[14:32:08] + patrol-x7k.arm-ace bonded (5 steps)
[14:32:08] + patrol-x7k.arm-nux bonded (5 steps)
[14:32:09] → patrol-x7k.arm-ace.capture in_progress
[14:32:10] ✓ patrol-x7k.arm-ace.capture completed
[14:32:14] ✓ patrol-x7k.arm-ace.decide completed (action: nudge-1)
```

This requires beads to track molecule step state transitions in real-time.

## Key Primitives Needed

### 1. Dynamic Bond with Variables
```bash
bd mol bond mol-polecat-arm <parent-wisp-id> \
  --var polecat_name=ace \
  --var rig=gastown
```

Creates wisp children under the parent:
- parent-id.arm-ace
- parent-id.arm-ace.capture
- parent-id.arm-ace.assess
- etc.

### 2. WaitsFor Directive
```markdown
## Step: aggregate
Collect outcomes from all dynamically-bonded children.
WaitsFor: all-children
Needs: survey-workers
```

The `WaitsFor: all-children` directive makes this a fanout gate - it can't
proceed until ALL dynamically-bonded children complete.

### 3. Activity Feed Query
```bash
bd activity --follow              # Real-time state stream
bd activity --mol <id>            # Activity for specific molecule
bd activity --since 5m            # Last 5 minutes
```

### 4. Parallel Step Detection
Steps with no inter-dependencies should be flagged as parallelizable.
When arms are bonded, their steps can run in parallel across arms.

## Use Case: mol-witness-patrol

The Witness monitors N polecats where N varies at runtime:

```
survey-workers discovers: [ace, nux, toast]
For each polecat:
  bd mol bond mol-polecat-arm <patrol-id> --var polecat_name=<name>
aggregate step waits for all arms to complete
```

This creates the Christmas Ornament shape:
- Trunk: preflight steps
- Arms: per-polecat inspection molecules
- Base: cleanup after all arms complete

## Design Docs

See Gas Town docs:
- docs/molecular-chemistry.md (updated with Christmas Ornament pattern)
- docs/architecture.md (activity feed section)

## Dependencies

This epic may depend on:
- Wisp storage (.beads-wisp/) - already implemented
- Variable substitution in molecules - may need enhancement


BondRef data model for compound lineage

Add data model support for tracking compound molecule lineage.

NEW FIELDS on Issue:
  bonded_from: []BondRef  // For compounds: constituent protos

NEW TYPE:
  type BondRef struct {
      ProtoID   string  // Source proto ID
      BondType  string  // sequential, parallel, conditional
      BondPoint string  // Attachment site (issue ID or empty for root)
  }

JSONL SERIALIZATION:
  {
    "id": "proto-feature-tested",
    "title": "Feature with tests",
    "bonded_from": [
      {"proto_id": "proto-feature", "bond_type": "root"},
      {"proto_id": "proto-testing", "bond_type": "sequential"}
    ],
    ...
  }

QUERIES:
- GetCompoundConstituents(id) → []BondRef
- IsCompound(id) → bool
- GetCompoundsUsing(protoID) → []Issue  // Reverse lookup


Version Bump: test-squash

Release checklist for version test-squash. This molecule ensures all release steps are completed properly.


Phase 1.1: TOON Library Integration - Add gotoon dependency

Add gotoon (github.com/alpkeskin/gotoon) to go.mod and create internal/toon wrapper package for TOON encoding/decoding. This enables bdtoon to encode Issue structs to TOON format and decode TOON back to issues.

## Subtasks
1. Add gotoon dependency: go get github.com/alpkeskin/gotoon
2. Create internal/toon package with wrapper functions
3. Write encode tests for Issue struct round-trip conversion
4. Write decode tests for TOON to Issue conversion
5. Add gotoon API options to wrapper (indent, delimiter, length markers)

## Success Criteria
- go.mod includes gotoon dependency
- internal/toon/encode.go exports EncodeTOON(issues) ([]byte, error)
- internal/toon/decode.go exports DecodeTOON(data []byte) ([]Issue, error)
- Round-trip tests verify Issue → TOON → Issue produces identical data
- Tests pass with: go test ./internal/toon -v

Implement bd gate create/show/list/close/wait commands

Implement the gate CLI commands.

## Commands
```bash
# Create gate (returns gate ID)
bd gate create --await <type>:<id> --timeout <duration> --notify <addr>

# Check gate status
bd gate show <id>

# List open gates
bd gate list

# Close gate (usually done by Deacon)
bd gate close <id> --reason "completed"

# Add waiter to existing gate
bd gate wait <id> --notify <addr>
```

## Implementation
- Add cmd/bd/gate.go with subcommands
- Gate create creates wisp issue of type gate
- Gate list filters for open gates
- Gate wait adds to waiters[] array
- All support --json output

Add daemon-side delete operation tests

Follow-up epic for PR #626: Add comprehensive test coverage for delete operations at the daemon/RPC layer. PR #626 successfully added storage layer tests but identified gaps in daemon-side delete operations and RPC integration testing.

## Scope
Tests needed for:
1. deleteViaDaemon (cmd/bd/delete.go:21) - RPC client-side deletion command
2. Daemon RPC delete handler - Server-side deletion via daemon
3. createTombstone wrapper (cmd/bd/delete.go:335) - Tombstone creation wrapper
4. deleteIssue wrapper (cmd/bd/delete.go:349) - Direct deletion wrapper

## Coverage targets
- Delete via RPC daemon (both success and error paths)
- Cascade deletion through daemon
- Force deletion through daemon
- Dry-run mode validation
- Tombstone creation and verification
- Error handling and edge cases


Add empty tasks validation in workflow create

Kill running daemons

Stop all bd daemons before release:

```bash
pkill -f 'bd.*daemon' || true
sleep 1
pgrep -lf 'bd.*daemon'  # Should show nothing
```


Release v0.34.0

Minor version release for beads v0.34.0. This bead serves as my persistent work assignment; the actual release steps are tracked in an attached wisp.


Add bd daemon --stop-all command to kill all daemon processes

Currently there's no easy way to stop all running bd daemon processes. Users must resort to pkill -f 'bd daemon' or similar shell commands.

Add a --stop-all flag to bd daemon that:
1. Finds all running bd daemon processes (not just the current repo's daemon)
2. Gracefully stops them all
3. Reports how many were stopped

This is useful when:
- Multiple daemons are running and causing race conditions
- User wants a clean slate before running bd sync
- Debugging daemon-related issues


Command Set Standardization & Flag Consistency

Comprehensive improvements to bd command set based on 2025 audit findings.

## Background
See docs/command-audit-2025.md for detailed analysis.

## Goals
1. Standardize flag naming and behavior across all commands
2. Add missing flags for feature parity
3. Fix naming confusion
4. Improve consistency in JSON output

## Success Criteria
- All mutating commands support --dry-run (no --preview variants)
- bd update supports label operations
- bd search has filter parity with bd list
- Priority flags accept both int and P0-P4 format everywhere
- JSON output is consistent across all commands


Timer beads for scheduled agent callbacks

## Problem

Agents frequently need to wait for external events (CI completion, PR reviews, artifact builds) but have no good mechanism:
- `sleep N` blocks and is unreliable (often times out at 8+ minutes)
- Polling wastes context and is easy to forget
- No way to survive session restarts

## Proposal: Timer Beads

A new bead type or field that represents a scheduled callback:

### Creating timers
```bash
bd timer create --in 30s --callback "Check CI run 12345" --issue bd-xyz
bd timer create --at "2025-12-20T08:00:00" --callback "Morning standup"
bd timer create --in 5m --on-expire "tmux send-keys -t dave 'bd show bd-xyz'"
```

### Timer storage
- Store in beads (survives restarts)
- Fields: `expires_at`, `callback_description`, `on_expire_command`, `linked_issue`
- Status: pending, fired, cancelled

### Deacon integration
The Deacon daemon monitors timer beads:
1. Wakes on next timer expiry
2. Executes `on_expire` command (e.g., tmux send-keys to interrupt agent)
3. Marks timer as fired
4. Optionally updates linked issue

### Use cases
- CI monitoring: "ping me when build completes"
- PR reviews: "check back in 1 hour"
- Scheduled tasks: "remind me at EOD to sync"
- Blocking waits: agent registers callback instead of sleeping

## Acceptance criteria
- [ ] Timer bead type or field design
- [ ] `bd timer create/list/cancel` commands
- [ ] Deacon timer monitoring loop
- [ ] tmux integration for agent interrupts
- [ ] Survives daemon restarts


Run bump-version.sh 0.30.7

Run ./scripts/bump-version.sh 0.30.7 to update version in all files


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 orphan detection migration

Create migration to detect orphaned children in existing databases. Query: SELECT id FROM issues WHERE id LIKE '%.%' AND substr(id, 1, instr(id || '.', '.') - 1) NOT IN (SELECT id FROM issues). Log results, let user decide action (delete orphans or convert to top-level).


Add composite index (issue_id, event_type) on events table

GetCloseReason and GetCloseReasonsForIssues filter by both issue_id and event_type.

**Query (queries.go:355-358):**
```sql
SELECT comment FROM events
WHERE issue_id = ? AND event_type = ?
ORDER BY created_at DESC LIMIT 1
```

**Problem:** Currently uses idx_events_issue but must filter event_type in memory.

**Solution:** Add migration:
```sql
CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS idx_events_issue_type ON events(issue_id, event_type);
```

**Priority:** Low - events table is typically small relative to issues.


Tests for messaging and graph links

Comprehensive test coverage for all new features.

Test files:
- cmd/bd/mail_test.go - mail command tests
- internal/storage/sqlite/graph_links_test.go - graph link tests
- internal/hooks/hooks_test.go - hook execution tests

Test cases:
- Mail send/inbox/read/ack lifecycle
- Thread creation and traversal (replies_to)
- Bidirectional relates_to
- Duplicate marking and queries
- Supersedes chains
- Ephemeral cleanup
- Identity resolution priority
- Hook execution (mock hooks)
- Schema migration preserves data

Target: >80% coverage on new code


Improve CheckStaleness error handling

## Problem

CheckStaleness returns 'false' (not stale) for multiple error conditions instead of returning errors. This masks problems.

**Location:** internal/autoimport/autoimport.go:253-285

## Edge Cases That Return False

1. **Invalid last_import_time format** (line 259-262)
2. **No JSONL file found** (line 267-277)
3. **JSONL stat fails** (line 279-282)

## Fix

Return errors for abnormal conditions:

```go
lastImportTime, err := time.Parse(time.RFC3339, lastImportStr)
if err != nil {
    return false, fmt.Errorf("corrupted last_import_time: %w", err)
}

if jsonlPath == "" {
    return false, fmt.Errorf("no JSONL file found")
}

stat, err := os.Stat(jsonlPath)
if err != nil {
    return false, fmt.Errorf("cannot stat JSONL: %w", err)
}
```

## Impact
Medium - edge cases are rare but should be handled

## Effort
30 minutes - requires updating callers in RPC server

Document BEADS_DIR pattern for multi-agent workspaces (Gas Town)

Gas Town and similar multi-agent systems need to configure separate beads databases per workspace/rig, distinct from any project-level beads.

## Use Case

In Gas Town:
- Each 'rig' (managed project) has multiple agents (polecats, refinery, witness)
- All agents in a rig should share a single beads database at the rig level
- This should be separate from any .beads/ the project itself uses
- The BEADS_DIR env var enables this

## Documentation Needed

1. Add a section to docs explaining BEADS_DIR for multi-agent setups
2. Example: setting BEADS_DIR in agent startup scripts/hooks
3. Clarify interaction with project-level .beads/ (BEADS_DIR takes precedence)

## Current Support

Already implemented in internal/beads/beads.go:FindDatabasePath():
- BEADS_DIR env var is checked first (preferred)
- BEADS_DB env var still supported (deprecated)
- Falls back to .beads/ search in tree

Just needs documentation for the multi-agent workspace pattern.


Add bd mol run command (bond + assign + pin)

bd mol run = bond + assign root to caller + pin to startup mail. This is the Gas Town integration point. When agent restarts, check startup mail, find pinned molecule root, query bd ready for next step. Makes molecules immortal.

Initial message for threading test


gt mail send: support reading message body from stdin

Currently gt mail send -m requires the message as a command-line argument, which causes shell escaping issues with backticks, quotes, and special characters.

Add support for reading message body from stdin:
- gt mail send addr -s 'Subject' --stdin  # Read body from stdin
- echo 'body' | gt mail send addr -s 'Subject' -m -  # Convention: -m - means stdin

This would allow:
cat <<'EOF' | gt mail send addr -s 'Subject' --stdin
Message with `backticks` and 'quotes' safely
EOF

Without this, agents struggle to send handoff messages containing code snippets.

bd ship command for publishing capabilities

Add `bd ship <capability>` command that:

1. Finds issue with `export:<capability>` label
2. Validates issue is closed (or --force to override)
3. Adds `provides:<capability>` label
4. Protects `provides:*` namespace (only bd ship can add these labels)

Example:
```bash
bd ship mol-run-assignee
# Output: Shipped mol-run-assignee (bd-xyz)
```

Rename 'template instantiate' to 'mol bond'

Rename the template instantiation command to match molecule metaphor.

Current: bd template instantiate <id> --var key=value
Target:  bd mol bond <id> --var key=value

Changes needed:
- Add 'mol' command group (or extend existing)
- Add 'bond' subcommand that wraps template instantiate logic
- Keep 'template instantiate' as deprecated alias for backward compat
- Update help text and docs to use molecule terminology

The 'bond' verb captures:
1. Chemistry metaphor (molecules bond to form structures)
2. Dependency linking (child issues bonded in a DAG)
3. Short and active

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

Code health review found cmd/bd/info_test.go has two tests permanently skipped:

These are essentially dead code. Either automate them or remove them entirely.

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.

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.


Push version bump to GitHub

git push origin main - triggers CI but no release yet.


Tier 1: Ephemeral repo routing

Simplified: Make mol spawn set ephemeral=true on spawned issues.

## The Fix

Modify cloneSubgraph() in template.go to set Ephemeral: true:

```go
// template.go:474
newIssue := &types.Issue{
    Title:      substituteVariables(oldIssue.Title, vars),
    // ... existing fields ...
    Ephemeral:  true,  // ADD THIS LINE
}
```

## Optional: Add --persistent flag

Add flag to bd mol spawn for when you want spawned issues to persist:

```bash
bd mol spawn mol-code-review --var pr=123  # ephemeral (default)
bd mol spawn mol-code-review --var pr=123 --persistent  # not ephemeral
```

## Why This Is Simpler Than Original Design

Original design proposed separate ephemeral repo routing. After code review:

- Ephemeral field already exists in schema
- bd cleanup --ephemeral already works
- No new config needed
- No multi-repo complexity

## Acceptance Criteria

- bd mol spawn creates issues with ephemeral=true
- bd cleanup --ephemeral -f deletes them after closing
- --persistent flag opts out of ephemeral
- Existing molecules continue to work


Correction: Pinned field already in v0.31.0

Quick correction - the Pinned field is already in the current bd v0.31.0:

```go
// In beads internal/types/types.go
Pinned bool `json:"pinned,omitempty"`
```

So you just need to:
1. Add `Pinned bool `json:"pinned,omitempty"`` to BeadsMessage in types.go
2. Sort pinned messages first in listBeads() after fetching

No migration needed - the field is already there.

Hooks System

Implement hook system for extensibility.

Hook directory: .beads/hooks/
Hook files (executable scripts):
- on_create - runs after bd create
- on_update - runs after bd update
- on_close - runs after bd close
- on_message - runs after bd mail send

Hook invocation:
- Pass issue ID as first argument
- Pass event type as second argument
- Pass JSON issue data on stdin
- Run asynchronously (dont block command)

Example hook (GGT notification):
  #!/bin/bash
  gt notify --event=$2 --issue=$1

This allows GGT to register notification handlers without Beads knowing about GGT.


Add metadata and thread_id columns to dependencies table

Schema changes:
- ALTER TABLE dependencies ADD COLUMN metadata TEXT DEFAULT '{}'
- ALTER TABLE dependencies ADD COLUMN thread_id TEXT DEFAULT ''
- CREATE INDEX idx_dependencies_thread ON dependencies(thread_id) WHERE thread_id != ''


Implement or remove ExpectExit/ExpectStdout verification fields

The Verification struct in internal/types/workflow.go has ExpectExit and ExpectStdout fields that are never used by workflowVerifyCmd. Either implement the functionality or remove the dead fields.


GH#405: Fix prefix parsing with hyphens - multi-hyphen prefixes parsed incorrectly

Fixed: ExtractIssuePrefix was falling back to first-hyphen for word-like suffixes, breaking multi-hyphen prefixes like 'hacker-news' and 'me-py-toolkit'.


Add tests for delete operations

Core delete functionality including deleteViaDaemon, createTombstone, and deleteIssue functions have 0% coverage. These are critical for data integrity and need comprehensive test coverage.


Restart daemon with 0.33.2

Restart the bd daemon to pick up new version:

```bash
bd daemon --stop
bd daemon --start
bd daemon --health  # Verify Version: 0.33.2
```


Phase 1.2: Separate bdt executable - Initial structure

Create minimal bdt command structure completely separate from bd. Must not share code, config, or database.

## Subtasks
1. Create cmd/bdt/ directory with main.go
2. Implement bdt version, help, and status commands
3. Configure separate database location: $HOME/.bdt/ (not $HOME/.beads/)
4. Create separate issues file: issues.toon (not issues.jsonl)
5. Update build system:
   - Makefile: Add bdt target
   - .goreleaser.yml: Add bdt binary config

## Files to Create
- cmd/bdt/main.go - Entry point
- cmd/bdt/version.go - Version handling
- cmd/bdt/help.go - Help text (separate from bd)

## Success Criteria
- `make build` produces both `bd` and `bdt` executables
- `bdt version` shows distinct version output from bd
- `bdt --help` shows distinct help text
- bdt uses $HOME/.bdt/ directory (verify with `bdt info`)
- bd and bdt completely isolated (no shared imports beyond stdlib)


Add bd update --parent flag to change issue parent

Allow changing an issue's parent with bd update --parent <new-parent-id>. Useful for reorganizing tasks under different epics or moving issues between hierarchies. Should update the parent-child dependency relationship.


Investigate TestRoutingIntegration failure

TestRoutingIntegration/maintainer_with_SSH_remote failed during pre-commit check with "expected role maintainer, got contributor".
This occurred while running `go test -short ./...` on darwin/arm64.
The failure appears unrelated to storage/sqlite changes.
Need to investigate if this is a flaky test or environmental issue.


Improve clean vs cleanup command naming/documentation

Clarify the difference between bd clean and bd cleanup to reduce user confusion.

**Current state:**
- bd clean: Remove temporary artifacts (.beads/bd.sock, logs, etc.)
- bd cleanup: Delete old closed issues from database

**Options:**
1. Rename for clarity:
   - bd clean → bd clean-temp
   - bd cleanup → bd cleanup-issues

2. Keep names but improve help text and documentation

3. Add prominent warnings in help output

**Preferred approach:** Option 2 (improve documentation)
- Update short/long descriptions in commands
- Add examples to help text
- Update README.md
- Add cross-references in help output

**Files to modify:**
- cmd/bd/clean.go
- cmd/bd/cleanup.go
- README.md or ADVANCED.md


GH#540: Add silent quick-capture mode (bd q)

Add bd q alias for quick capture that outputs only issue ID. Useful for piping/scripting. See GitHub issue #540.


Refactor mol.go: split 1200+ line file into subcommands

## Problem

cmd/bd/mol.go has grown to 1200+ lines with all molecule subcommands in one file.

## Current State
- mol.go: 1218 lines (bond, spawn, run, distill, catalog, show, etc.)
- Hard to navigate, review, and maintain

## Proposed Structure
Split into separate files by subcommand:
```
cmd/bd/
├── mol.go           # Root command, shared helpers
├── mol_bond.go      # bd mol bond
├── mol_spawn.go     # bd mol spawn
├── mol_run.go       # bd mol run
├── mol_distill.go   # bd mol distill
├── mol_catalog.go   # bd mol catalog
├── mol_show.go      # bd mol show
└── mol_test.go      # Tests (already separate)
```

## Benefits
- Easier code review
- Better separation of concerns
- Simpler navigation
- Each subcommand self-contained


Git merge driver uses invalid placeholders (%L, %R instead of %A, %B)

## Problem

The beads git merge driver is configured with invalid Git placeholders:

```
git config merge.beads.driver "bd merge %A %O %L %R"
```

Git doesn't recognize `%L` or `%R` as valid merge driver placeholders. The valid placeholders are:
- `%O` = base (common ancestor)
- `%A` = current version (ours)
- `%B` = other version (theirs)

## Impact

- Affects ALL users when they have `.beads/beads.jsonl` merge conflicts
- Automatic JSONL merge fails with error: "error reading left file: failed to open file: open 7: no such file or directory"
- Users must manually resolve conflicts instead of getting automatic merge

## Root Cause

The `bd init` command (or wherever the merge driver is configured) is using non-standard placeholders. When Git encounters `%L` and `%R`, it either passes them literally or interprets them incorrectly.

## Fix

Update the merge driver configuration to:
```
git config merge.beads.driver "bd merge %A %O %A %B"
```

Where:
- 1st `%A` = output file (current file, will be overwritten)
- `%O` = base (common ancestor)
- 2nd `%A` = left/current version
- `%B` = right/other version

## Action Items

1. Fix `bd init` (or equivalent setup command) to use correct placeholders
2. Add migration/warning for existing users with misconfigured merge driver
3. Update documentation with correct merge driver setup
4. Consider adding validation when `bd init` is run


bd cleanup --hard should skip tombstone creation for true permanent deletion

## Problem

When using bd cleanup --hard --older-than N --force, the command:
1. Deletes closed issues older than N days (converting them to tombstones with NOW timestamp)
2. Then tries to prune tombstones older than N days (finds none because they were just created)

This leaves the database bloated with fresh tombstones that will not be pruned.

## Expected Behavior

In --hard mode, the deletion should be permanent without creating tombstones, since the user explicitly requested bypassing sync safety.

## Workaround

Manually delete from database: sqlite3 .beads/beads.db 'DELETE FROM issues WHERE status=tombstone'

## Fix Options

1. In --hard mode, use a different delete path that does not create tombstones
2. After deleting, immediately prune the just-created tombstones regardless of age
3. Pass a skip_tombstone flag to the delete operation

Option 1 is cleanest - --hard should mean permanent delete without tombstone.


getLocalSyncBranch silently ignores YAML parse errors

In autoimport.go:170-172, YAML parsing errors are silently ignored. If a user has malformed YAML in config.yaml, sync-branch will just silently be empty with no feedback.

Recommendation: Add debug logging since this function is only called during auto-import, and debugging silent failures is painful.

Add: debug.Logf("Warning: failed to parse config.yaml: %v", err)


Run tests and linting

Run the full test suite and linter:

```bash
TMPDIR=/tmp go test -short ./...
golangci-lint run ./...
```

Fix any failures. Linting warnings acceptable (see LINTING.md).


Implement await type handlers (gh:run, gh:pr, timer, human, mail)

Implement condition checking for each await type.

## Handlers Needed
- gh:run:<id> - Check GitHub Actions run status via gh CLI
- gh:pr:<id> - Check PR merged/closed status via gh CLI
- timer:<duration> - Simple elapsed time check
- human:<prompt> - Check for human approval (via mail?)
- mail:<pattern> - Check for mail matching pattern

## Implementation Location
This is Deacon logic, so likely in Gas Town (gt) not beads.

## Interface
```go
type AwaitHandler interface {
    Check(awaitID string) (completed bool, result string, err error)
}
```


Improve test coverage for cmd/bd/doctor/fix (23.9% → 50%)

Update .claude-plugin/marketplace.json to 0.30.4

Update version field in .claude-plugin/marketplace.json:
```json

```

```verify
jq -e '.plugins[0].version == "0.30.4"' .claude-plugin/marketplace.json
```


gt spawn/crew setup should create .beads/redirect for worktrees

Crew clones and polecats need a .beads/redirect file pointing to the shared beads database (../../mayor/rig/.beads). Currently:

- redirect files can get deleted by git clean
- not auto-created during gt spawn or worktree setup
- missing redirects cause 'no beads database found' errors

Found missing in: gastown/joe, beads/zoey (after git clean)

Fix options:
1. gt spawn creates redirect during worktree setup
2. gt prime regenerates missing redirects
3. bd commands auto-detect worktree and find shared beads

This should be standard Gas Town rig configuration.


Update beads_mcp/__init__.py to 0.30.4

Spawn-time bonding: --attach flag

Add --attach flag to bd mol spawn for on-the-fly composition.

COMMAND: bd mol spawn proto-feature --attach proto-docs --attach proto-testing

BEHAVIOR:
- Spawn the primary proto as normal
- For each --attach: spawn that proto and wire to primary
- Attachments become children of primary's root epic
- Dependencies wired based on bond type (default: sequential)

FLAGS:
- --attach PROTO: Attach a proto (can repeat)
- --attach-type TYPE: sequential (default) or parallel for all attachments
- --after ISSUE: Attachment point for attached protos

VARIABLE HANDLING:
- All attached protos share variable namespace
- Warn on variable name conflicts
- All --var flags apply to all protos

DESIGN NOTE: This is syntactic sugar. Equivalent to:
  bd mol spawn proto-A
  bd mol bond $new_epic_id proto-B

Keeping as separate task because it's a common UX pattern worth optimizing.


bd wisp list command

Add bd wisp list command to show ephemeral molecules.

## Usage
```bash
bd wisp list              # List all wisps in current context
bd wisp list --json       # JSON output
bd wisp list --all        # Include orphaned wisps
```

## Output
- Shows in-progress ephemeral molecules
- Columns: ID, Title, Started, Last Update, Status
- Warns about orphaned wisps (old updated_at)

## Implementation
- New 'wisp' command group
- Read from .beads-ephemeral/issues.jsonl
- Filter to ephemeral:true issues

Fix TestRunSync_Timeout failing on macOS

The hooks timeout test fails because exec.CommandContext doesn't properly terminate child processes of shell scripts on macOS. The test creates a hook that runs 'sleep 60' with a 500ms timeout, but it waits the full 60 seconds.

Options to fix:
- Use SysProcAttr{Setpgid: true} to create process group and kill the group
- Skip test on darwin with build tag
- Use a different approach for timeout testing

bd doctor should recommend bd prime migration for existing repos

bd doctor should detect old beads integration patterns and recommend migrating to bd prime approach.

## Current behavior
- bd doctor checks if Claude hooks are installed globally
- Doesn't check project-level integration (AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md)
- Doesn't recommend migration for repos using old patterns

## Desired behavior
bd doctor should detect and suggest:

1. **Old slash command pattern detected**
   - Check for /beads:* references in AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md
   - Suggest: These slash commands are deprecated, use bd prime hooks instead

2. **No agent documentation**
   - Check if AGENTS.md or CLAUDE.md exists
   - Suggest: Run 'bd onboard' or 'bd setup claude' to document workflow

3. **Old MCP-only pattern**
   - Check for instructions to use MCP tools but no bd prime hooks
   - Suggest: Add bd prime hooks for better token efficiency

4. **Migration path**
   - Show: 'Run bd setup claude to add SessionStart/PreCompact hooks'
   - Show: 'Update AGENTS.md to reference bd prime instead of slash commands'

## Example output

⚠ Warning: Old beads integration detected in CLAUDE.md
  Found: /beads:* slash command references (deprecated)
  Recommend: Migrate to bd prime hooks for better token efficiency
  Fix: Run 'bd setup claude' and update CLAUDE.md

💡 Tip: bd prime + hooks reduces token usage by 80-99% vs slash commands
  MCP mode: ~50 tokens vs ~10.5k for full MCP scan
  CLI mode: ~1-2k tokens with automatic context recovery

## Benefits
- Helps existing repos adopt new best practices
- Clear migration path for users
- Better token efficiency messaging


bd close hooks: context check and notifications

Add hook system to bd close for notifications and custom actions.

## Scope (MVP)

Implement **command hooks only** for bd close. Deferred: notify, webhook types.

## Implementation

### 1. Config Schema

Add to internal/configfile/config.go:

```go
type HooksConfig struct {
    OnClose []HookEntry `yaml:"on_close,omitempty"`
}

type HookEntry struct {
    Command string `yaml:"command"`           // Shell command to run
    Name    string `yaml:"name,omitempty"`    // Optional display name
}
```

Add `Hooks HooksConfig` field to Config struct.

### 2. Hook Execution

Create internal/hooks/close_hooks.go:

```go
func RunCloseHooks(ctx context.Context, cfg *configfile.Config, issue *types.Issue) error {
    for _, hook := range cfg.Hooks.OnClose {
        cmd := exec.CommandContext(ctx, "sh", "-c", hook.Command)
        cmd.Env = append(os.Environ(),
            "BEAD_ID="+issue.ID,
            "BEAD_TITLE="+issue.Title,
            "BEAD_TYPE="+string(issue.IssueType),
            "BEAD_PRIORITY="+strconv.Itoa(issue.Priority),
            "BEAD_CLOSE_REASON="+issue.CloseReason,
        )
        cmd.Stdout = os.Stdout
        cmd.Stderr = os.Stderr
        if err := cmd.Run(); err \!= nil {
            // Log warning but dont fail the close
            fmt.Fprintf(os.Stderr, "Warning: close hook %q failed: %v\n", hook.Name, err)
        }
    }
    return nil
}
```

### 3. Integration Point

In cmd/bd/close.go, after successful close:

```go
// Run close hooks
if cfg := configfile.Load(); cfg \!= nil {
    hooks.RunCloseHooks(ctx, cfg, closedIssue)
}
```

### 4. Example Config

```yaml
# .beads/config.yaml
hooks:
  on_close:
    - name: show-next
      command: bd ready --limit 1
    - name: context-check
      command: echo "Issue $BEAD_ID closed. Check context if nearing limit."
```

## Environment Variables

| Variable | Description |
|----------|-------------|
| BEAD_ID | Issue ID (e.g., bd-abc1) |
| BEAD_TITLE | Issue title |
| BEAD_TYPE | Issue type (task, bug, feature, etc.) |
| BEAD_PRIORITY | Priority (0-4) |
| BEAD_CLOSE_REASON | Close reason if provided |

## Testing

Add test in internal/hooks/close_hooks_test.go:
- Test hook execution with mock config
- Test env vars are set correctly
- Test hook failure doesnt block close

## Files to Create/Modify

1. **Create:** internal/hooks/close_hooks.go
2. **Create:** internal/hooks/close_hooks_test.go
3. **Modify:** internal/configfile/config.go (add HooksConfig)
4. **Modify:** cmd/bd/close.go (call RunCloseHooks)
5. **Modify:** docs/CONFIG.md (document hooks config)

## Out of Scope (Future)

- notify hook type (gt mail integration)
- webhook type (HTTP POST)
- on_create, on_update hooks
- Hook timeout configuration
- Parallel hook execution


GH#505: Add bd reset/wipe command

Add command to cleanly reset/wipe beads database. User reports painful manual process to start fresh. See GitHub issue #505.


Commit and push release

git add -A && git commit && git push to trigger CI


Add daemon RPC support for gate commands.

## Current State
Gate commands require --no-daemon flag because they use direct SQLite access:
- Gate create needs to write await_type, await_id, timeout_ns, waiters fields
- Gate wait needs to update waiters JSON array
- Daemon RPC doesnt have methods for these operations

## Implementation

### 1. Add RPC methods to internal/rpc/protocol.go

```go
// Gate operations
type GateCreateArgs struct {
    Title     string        \`json:"title"\`
    AwaitType string        \`json:"await_type"\`
    AwaitID   string        \`json:"await_id"\`
    Timeout   time.Duration \`json:"timeout"\`
    Waiters   []string      \`json:"waiters"\`
}

type GateCreateResult struct {
    Issue *types.Issue \`json:"issue"\`
}

type GateListArgs struct {
    All bool \`json:"all"\` // Include closed gates
}

type GateListResult struct {
    Gates []*types.Issue \`json:"gates"\`
}

type GateWaitArgs struct {
    GateID  string   \`json:"gate_id"\`
    Waiters []string \`json:"waiters"\` // Additional waiters to add
}

type GateWaitResult struct {
    Gate        *types.Issue \`json:"gate"\`
    AddedCount  int          \`json:"added_count"\`
}
```

### 2. Add handler methods to internal/daemon/rpc_handler.go

```go
func (h *RPCHandler) GateCreate(ctx context.Context, args *rpc.GateCreateArgs) (*rpc.GateCreateResult, error) {
    now := time.Now()
    gate := &types.Issue{
        Title:     args.Title,
        IssueType: types.TypeGate,
        Status:    types.StatusOpen,
        Priority:  1,
        Assignee:  "deacon/",
        Wisp:      true,
        AwaitType: args.AwaitType,
        AwaitID:   args.AwaitID,
        Timeout:   args.Timeout,
        Waiters:   args.Waiters,
        CreatedAt: now,
        UpdatedAt: now,
    }
    gate.ContentHash = gate.ComputeContentHash()

    if err := h.store.CreateIssue(ctx, gate, h.actor); err != nil {
        return nil, err
    }

    return &rpc.GateCreateResult{Issue: gate}, nil
}

func (h *RPCHandler) GateList(ctx context.Context, args *rpc.GateListArgs) (*rpc.GateListResult, error) {
    gateType := types.TypeGate
    filter := types.IssueFilter{IssueType: &gateType}
    if !args.All {
        openStatus := types.StatusOpen
        filter.Status = &openStatus
    }

    gates, err := h.store.SearchIssues(ctx, "", filter)
    if err != nil {
        return nil, err
    }

    return &rpc.GateListResult{Gates: gates}, nil
}

func (h *RPCHandler) GateWait(ctx context.Context, args *rpc.GateWaitArgs) (*rpc.GateWaitResult, error) {
    gate, err := h.store.GetIssue(ctx, args.GateID)
    if err != nil {
        return nil, err
    }
    if gate.IssueType != types.TypeGate {
        return nil, fmt.Errorf("%s is not a gate", args.GateID)
    }

    // Merge waiters (dedupe)
    waiterSet := make(map[string]bool)
    for _, w := range gate.Waiters {
        waiterSet[w] = true
    }
    added := 0
    for _, w := range args.Waiters {
        if !waiterSet[w] {
            gate.Waiters = append(gate.Waiters, w)
            waiterSet[w] = true
            added++
        }
    }

    if added > 0 {
        // Update via store
        updates := map[string]interface{}{
            "waiters": gate.Waiters,
        }
        if err := h.store.UpdateIssue(ctx, args.GateID, updates, h.actor); err != nil {
            return nil, err
        }
    }

    return &rpc.GateWaitResult{Gate: gate, AddedCount: added}, nil
}
```

### 3. Register methods in daemon

In internal/daemon/server.go, register the new methods:
```go
rpc.RegisterMethod("gate.create", h.GateCreate)
rpc.RegisterMethod("gate.list", h.GateList)
rpc.RegisterMethod("gate.wait", h.GateWait)
```

### 4. Add client methods to internal/rpc/client.go

```go
func (c *Client) GateCreate(ctx context.Context, args *GateCreateArgs) (*GateCreateResult, error) {
    var result GateCreateResult
    err := c.Call(ctx, "gate.create", args, &result)
    return &result, err
}

func (c *Client) GateList(ctx context.Context, args *GateListArgs) (*GateListResult, error) {
    var result GateListResult
    err := c.Call(ctx, "gate.list", args, &result)
    return &result, err
}

func (c *Client) GateWait(ctx context.Context, args *GateWaitArgs) (*GateWaitResult, error) {
    var result GateWaitResult
    err := c.Call(ctx, "gate.wait", args, &result)
    return &result, err
}
```

### 5. Update cmd/bd/gate.go to use daemon

```go
// In gateCreateCmd Run:
if daemonClient != nil {
    result, err := daemonClient.GateCreate(ctx, &rpc.GateCreateArgs{
        Title:     title,
        AwaitType: awaitType,
        AwaitID:   awaitID,
        Timeout:   timeout,
        Waiters:   notifyAddrs,
    })
    if err != nil {
        FatalError("gate create: %v", err)
    }
    gate = result.Issue
} else {
    // Existing direct store code
}
```

## Files to Modify

1. **internal/rpc/protocol.go** - Add Gate*Args/Result types
2. **internal/daemon/rpc_handler.go** - Add handler methods
3. **internal/daemon/server.go** - Register methods
4. **internal/rpc/client.go** - Add client methods
5. **cmd/bd/gate.go** - Use daemon client when available

## Testing

```bash
# Start daemon
bd daemon start

# Test via daemon (should work without --no-daemon)
bd gate create --await timer:5m --notify beads/dave
bd gate list
bd gate wait <id> --notify beads/alice

# Verify daemon handled it
bd daemons logs . | grep gate
```

## Success Criteria
- All gate commands work without --no-daemon
- Same behavior in daemon vs direct mode
- Waiters array updates correctly via RPC
- Tests pass for RPC gate operations

Description from stdin test


Re: Thread Test 2

Great! Thread is working well.


Add 'bd status' command for issue database overview

Implement a bd status command that provides a quick snapshot of the issue database state, similar to how git status shows working tree state.

Expected output: Show summary including counts by state (open, in-progress, blocked, closed), recent activity (last 7 days), and quick overview without needing multiple queries.

Example output showing issue counts, recent activity stats, and pointer to bd list for details.

Proposed options: --all (show all issues), --assigned (show issues assigned to current user), --json (JSON format output)

Use cases: Quick project health check, onboarding for new contributors, integration with shell prompts or CI/CD, daily standup reference


🤝 HANDOFF: v0.31.0 released, molecules discussion

Session completed 0.31.0 release and had important molecules discussion.

## Completed
- v0.31.0 released (deferred status, audit trail, directory labels, etc.)
- Fixed lint issues, hook version markers, codesigning
- All CI green, artifacts verified

## Filed Issues
- bd-usro: Rename template instantiate → bd mol bond
- bd-y8bj: Auto-detect identity for bd mail (P1 bug)
- gt-975: Molecule execution support for polecats/crew
- gt-976: Crew lifecycle support in Deacon

## Key Insight
Molecules are the future - TodoWrite is ephemeral, molecules are persistent institutional memory on the world chain. I tried to use TodoWrite for version bump and missed steps (codesigning, MCP verification). Molecules would have caught this.

## Next Steps
- bd mol bond implementation is priority
- Max has gt-976 for crew lifecycle (enables automated refresh mid-molecule)

Check bd ready and gt-975/976 status.


bd wisp gc command

Add bd wisp gc command to garbage collect orphaned wisps.

## Usage
```bash
bd wisp gc                # Clean orphaned wisps
bd wisp gc --dry-run      # Show what would be cleaned
bd wisp gc --age 1h       # Custom orphan threshold (default: 1h)
```

## Orphan Detection
A wisp is orphaned if:
- process_id field exists AND process is dead
- OR updated_at older than threshold AND not complete
- AND molecule status is not complete/abandoned

## Behavior
- Delete orphaned wisps (no digest created)
- Report count of cleaned wisps
- --dry-run shows candidates without deleting

## Implementation
- Add 'gc' subcommand to wisp group
- Process detection via os.FindProcess or /proc
- Configurable age threshold


test pin issue


worktree: any bd command is slow

in a git worktree any bd command is slow, with a 2-3s pause before any results are shown. The identical command with `--no-daemon` is near instant.


activity.go: Missing test coverage

The new activity.go command (from bd-xo1o.3) has no test coverage. At minimum, tests should cover:
- parseDurationString() for various formats (5m, 1h, 2d, invalid)
- filterEvents() for --mol and --type filtering
- formatEvent() and getEventDisplay() for all mutation types

Discovered during code review of bd-xo1o implementation.


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?

Make DetectCollisions read-only (separate detection from modification)

**Summary:** The project restructured the collision detection process in the database to separate read-only detection from state modification, eliminating race conditions and improving system reliability. This was achieved by introducing a two-phase approach: first detecting potential collisions, then applying resolution separately.

**Key Decisions:**
- Create read-only DetectCollisions method
- Add RenameDetail to track potential issue renames
- Implement atomic ApplyCollisionResolution function
- Separate detection logic from database modification

**Resolution:** The refactoring creates a more robust, composable collision handling mechanism that prevents partial failures and maintains database consistency during complex issue import scenarios.


bd mol burn deletes ephemeral without digest

Update bd mol burn to handle ephemeral molecules.

## Behavior for Ephemeral Molecules
- Delete wisp from .beads-ephemeral/
- NO digest created (unlike squash)
- Used for abandoned/crashed cycles

## Difference from Squash
| Command | Ephemeral Behavior |
|---------|-------------------|
| squash | Delete wisp, create digest |
| burn | Delete wisp, no trace |

## Implementation
- Detect if molecule is ephemeral
- Delete from ephemeral store
- Skip digest creation


Implement bd close --continue flag

Auto-advance to next step in molecule when closing an issue. Referenced by gt-um6q, gt-lz13. Needed for molecule navigation workflow.


Exclude pinned issues from bd ready

Update bd ready to exclude pinned issues. Pinned issues are context markers, not work items, and should never appear in the ready-to-work list.


Tier 1: Ephemeral repo routing

Add routing.ephemeral config option to route ephemeral=true issues to separate location.

## Changes Required

1. Add `routing.ephemeral` config option (default: empty = disabled)
2. Update routing logic in `determineRepo()` to check ephemeral flag
3. Update `bd create` to respect ephemeral routing
4. Update import/export for multi-location support
5. Ephemeral repo can be:
   - Separate git repo (~/.beads-ephemeral)
   - Non-git directory (just filesystem)
   - Same repo, different branch (future)

## Config

```bash
bd config set routing.ephemeral "~/.beads-ephemeral"
```

## Acceptance Criteria

- `bd create "test" --ephemeral` creates in ephemeral repo when configured
- `bd list` shows issues from both repos
- Ephemeral repo never synced to remote


Audit and standardize JSON output across all commands

Ensure consistent JSON format and error handling when --json flag is used.

**Scope:**
1. Verify all commands respect --json flag
2. Standardize success response format
3. Standardize error response format
4. Document JSON schemas

**Commands to audit:**
- Core CRUD: create, update, delete, show, list, search ✓
- Queries: ready, blocked, stale, count, stats, status
- Deps: dep add/remove/tree/cycles
- Labels: label commands
- Comments: comments add/list/delete
- Epics: epic status/close-eligible
- Export/import: already support --json ✓

**Testing:**
- Success cases return valid JSON
- Error cases return valid JSON (not plain text)
- Consistent field naming (snake_case vs camelCase)
- Array vs object wrapping consistency


Push release v0.33.2 to remote

Push the commit and tag:

```bash
git push && git push --tags
```

Verify on GitHub that the tag appears in releases.


Update local installation

Run install script or brew upgrade to get new version locally: curl -fsSL .../install.sh | bash


Implement backup functionality for reset

Add backup capability that can be used by reset command.

## Functionality
- Copy .beads/ to .beads-backup-{timestamp}/
- Timestamp format: YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS
- Preserve file permissions
- Return backup path for user feedback

## Location
`internal/reset/backup.go` - keep with reset package for now (YAGNI)

## Interface
```go
func CreateBackup(beadsDir string) (backupPath string, err error)
```

## Notes
- Simple recursive file copy, no compression needed
- Error if backup dir already exists (unlikely with timestamp)
- Backup directories SHOULD be gitignored
- Add `.beads-backup-*/` pattern to .beads/.gitignore template in doctor package
- Consider: ListBackups() for future `bd backup list` command (not for this PR)


Push release v{{version}} to remote


mergeDependencies uses union instead of 3-way merge

## Critical Bug

The `mergeDependencies` function in internal/merge/merge.go performs a UNION of left and right dependencies instead of a proper 3-way merge. This causes removed dependencies to be resurrected.

### Root Cause

```go
// Current code (lines 795-816):
func mergeDependencies(left, right []Dependency) []Dependency {
    // Just unions left + right
    // NEVER REMOVES anything
    // Doesn't even look at base!
}
```

And `mergeIssue` (line 579) doesn't pass `base`:
```go
result.Dependencies = mergeDependencies(left.Dependencies, right.Dependencies)
```

### Impact

If:
- Base has dependency D
- Left removes D (intentional)
- Right still has D (stale)

Current: D is in result (resurrection!)
Correct: Left removed it, D should NOT be in result

This breaks Gas Town's workflow and data integrity. Closed means closed.

### Fix

Change `mergeDependencies` to take `base` and do proper 3-way merge:
- If dep was in base and removed by left → exclude (left wins)
- If dep was in base and removed by right → exclude (right wins)
- If dep wasn't in base and added by either → include
- If dep was in base and both still have it → include

Key principle: **REMOVALS ARE AUTHORITATIVE**

### Files to Change

1. internal/merge/merge.go:
   - `mergeDependencies(left, right)` → `mergeDependencies(base, left, right)`
   - `mergeIssue` line 579: pass `base.Dependencies`

### Related

This also explains why `ProtectLocalExportIDs` in importer is defined but never used - the protection was never actually implemented.


Phase 2.5: TOON-based daemon sync

Implement TOON-native daemon sync (replaces JSONL sync machinery).

## Overview
Daemon sync is the final integration point. Replace export/import/merge machinery with TOON-native sync, building on deletion tracking (2.3) and merge optimization (2.4).

## Required Work

### 2.5.1 TOON-based Daemon Sync
- [ ] Understand current JSONL sync machinery (export.go, import.go, merge.go)
- [ ] Replace export step with TOON encoding (EncodeTOON)
- [ ] Replace import step with TOON decoding (DecodeTOON)
- [ ] Replace merge step with TOON-aware 3-way merge
- [ ] Update daemon auto-sync to read/write TOON
- [ ] Verify 5-second debounce still works

### 2.5.2 Deletion Sync Integration
- [ ] Load deletions.toon during import phase
- [ ] Apply deletions after merging issues
- [ ] Ensure deletion TTL respects daemon schedule

### 2.5.3 Testing
- [ ] Unit tests for daemon sync with TOON
- [ ] Integration tests with actual daemon operations
- [ ] Multi-clone sync scenarios with concurrent edits
- [ ] Performance comparison with JSONL sync
- [ ] Long-running daemon stability tests

## Success Criteria
- Daemon reads/writes TOON format (not JSONL)
- Sync latency comparable to JSONL (<100ms)
- All 70+ tests passing
- bdt commands work seamlessly with daemon
- Multi-clone sync scenarios work correctly

Update go install bd to 0.33.2

Rebuild and install bd to ~/go/bin:

```bash
go install ./cmd/bd
~/go/bin/bd version  # Verify shows 0.33.2
```

Note: If ~/go/bin is in PATH before /opt/homebrew/bin, this is the version that runs by default.


Fix beads-9yc: pinned column missing from schema. gt mail...

Fix beads-9yc: pinned column missing from schema. gt mail send fails because some beads DBs lack the pinned column. Add migration to ensure it exists.


.beads-ephemeral/ storage backend

Implement ephemeral storage layer for wisps.

## Requirements
- New storage location: .beads-ephemeral/issues.jsonl (sibling to .beads/)
- Gitignored by default (add to .beads/.gitignore)
- Same JSONL format as regular beads
- Config option: ephemeral.directory (relative path)
- ephemeral.enabled config flag

## Storage Behavior
- Ephemeral issues have `ephemeral: true` field
- No sync to remote (local only)
- No daemon tracking needed (transient)

## Implementation
- Add EphemeralStore in storage package
- Initialize on demand when --ephemeral flag used
- Share Issue struct, just different storage path

Release v0.30.4

## Version Bump Workflow

Coordinating release from 0.30.3 to 0.30.4.

### Components Updated
- Go CLI (cmd/bd/version.go)
- Claude Plugin (.claude-plugin/*.json)
- MCP Server (integrations/beads-mcp/)
- npm Package (npm-package/package.json)
- Git hooks (cmd/bd/templates/hooks/)

### Release Channels
- GitHub Releases (GoReleaser)
- PyPI (beads-mcp)
- npm (@beads/cli)
- Homebrew (homebrew-beads tap)


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


Standardize error handling: replace direct fmt.Fprintf+os.Exit with FatalError

Standardize error handling in cmd/bd/ using FatalError pattern.

## Current State
~200+ instances of direct `fmt.Fprintf(os.Stderr, ...) + os.Exit(1)` pattern scattered across cmd/bd/*.go files.

## Target Pattern

Use existing FatalError helper (or create if missing):

```go
// In cmd/bd/helpers.go or similar
func FatalError(format string, args ...interface{}) {
    fmt.Fprintf(os.Stderr, "Error: "+format+"\n", args...)
    os.Exit(1)
}

func FatalErrorf(err error, context string) {
    fmt.Fprintf(os.Stderr, "Error: %s: %v\n", context, err)
    os.Exit(1)
}
```

## Transformation

```go
// Before
fmt.Fprintf(os.Stderr, "Error: %v\n", err)
os.Exit(1)

// After
FatalError("%v", err)

// Before
fmt.Fprintf(os.Stderr, "Error: invalid --since duration: %v\n", err)
os.Exit(1)

// After
FatalError("invalid --since duration: %v", err)
```

## Files to Update (by occurrence count)
Run: `grep -c "os.Exit(1)" cmd/bd/*.go | sort -t: -k2 -rn | head -20`

Priority files (highest occurrence):
- close.go
- show.go
- sync.go
- init.go
- list.go
- create.go
- update.go

## Implementation Steps

1. **Check if FatalError exists** in cmd/bd/helpers.go or create it
2. **Create migration script** or use sed:
   ```bash
   # Find patterns to replace
   grep -rn "fmt.Fprintf(os.Stderr.*Error.*\n.*os.Exit(1)" cmd/bd/
   ```
3. **Replace systematically** file by file
4. **Run tests** after each file to verify behavior unchanged
5. **Run linter** to catch any missed patterns

## Verification
```bash
# Count remaining direct exits (should be near zero)
grep -c "os.Exit(1)" cmd/bd/*.go | awk -F: "{sum+=\$2} END {print sum}"

# Run tests
go test -short ./cmd/bd/...
```

## Success Criteria
- All error exits use FatalError/FatalErrorf
- Consistent "Error: " prefix on all error messages
- Tests pass
- No behavior changes (exit codes remain 1)

## Progress (Dec 2025)

Standardized error handling in 3 major files:
- compact.go: All 48 os.Exit(1) calls converted to FatalError
- sync.go: All error patterns converted (kept 1 valid summary exit)
- migrate.go: 4 patterns converted

## Remaining Work
~326 fmt.Fprintf(os.Stderr, "Error:") patterns remain across ~30 files.
High-count files remaining: show.go (16), dep.go (14), gate.go (28), init.go (11).

## Verification
- Build compiles successfully
- Tests pass


Gate: timer:1m


Support redirect files in .beads/ directory

Gas Town creates polecat worktrees with .beads/redirect files that point to a shared beads database. The bd CLI should:

1. When finding a .beads/ directory, check if it contains a 'redirect' file
2. If redirect exists, read the relative path and use that as the beads directory
3. This allows multiple git worktrees to share a single beads database

Example:
- polecats/alpha/.beads/redirect contains '../../mayor/rig/.beads'
- bd commands from alpha should use mayor/rig/.beads

Currently bd ignores redirect files and either uses the local .beads/ or walks up to find a parent .beads/.

Related: gt-nriy (test message that can't be retrieved due to missing redirect support)

| init.go | 1742 | Too large |
| show.go | 1419 | Too large |
| compact.go | 1190 | Borderline |

## Proposed Splits

### 1. sync.go (2203 lines) → 4 files

**sync.go** (~500 lines) - Main command and coordination
```go
var syncCmd = &cobra.Command{...}
func init() {...}
func doSync(...) {...}

Remove redundant edge fields from Issue struct

Remove from Issue struct:
- RepliesTo -> dependency with type replies-to
- RelatesTo -> dependencies with type relates-to
- DuplicateOf -> dependency with type duplicates
- SupersededBy -> dependency with type supersedes

Keep: Sender, Ephemeral (these are attributes, not relationships)


Update CHANGELOG.md with release notes

Add release notes for 0.32.1: MCP output control params (#667), pin field fix


Cross-project dependency support

Enable tracking dependencies across project boundaries.

## Mechanism
- Producer: `bd ship <capability>` adds `provides:<capability>` label
- Consumer: `blocked_by: external:<project>:<capability>`
- Resolution: `bd ready` checks external deps via config

## Design Doc
See: gastown/docs/cross-project-deps.md

## Children
- bd-eijl: bd ship command
- bd-om4a: external: prefix in blocked_by
- bd-66w1: external_projects config
