This commit implements the git hook infrastructure for Dolt storage backend as specified in the design document. Changes: - Add `bd hook` command (singular) for git hooks to call directly - Implement per-worktree export state tracking in .beads/export-state/ - Add post-checkout guard to only import if JSONL changed - Add hook chaining configuration (chain_strategy, chain_timeout_ms) - Support hooks in .beads/hooks/ directory with git config core.hooksPath - Implement branch-then-merge import pattern for Dolt storage - Update bd init to install hooks to .beads/hooks/ for Dolt backend - Add --beads flag to `bd hooks install` command The new `bd hook` command supports: - pre-commit: Export database to JSONL, stage changes - post-merge: Import JSONL to database after pull/merge - post-checkout: Import JSONL after branch checkout (with guard) For Dolt backend, uses branch-then-merge pattern: 1. Create jsonl-import branch 2. Import JSONL data to branch 3. Merge branch to main (cell-level conflict resolution) 4. Delete branch on success Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
bd - Beads
Distributed, git-backed graph issue tracker for AI agents.
Beads provides a persistent, structured memory for coding agents. It replaces messy markdown plans with a dependency-aware graph, allowing agents to handle long-horizon tasks without losing context.
⚡ Quick Start
# Install (macOS/Linux/FreeBSD)
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/steveyegge/beads/main/scripts/install.sh | bash
# Initialize (Humans run this once)
bd init
# Tell your agent
echo "Use 'bd' for task tracking" >> AGENTS.md
🛠 Features
- Git as Database: Issues stored as JSONL in
.beads/. Versioned, branched, and merged like code. - Agent-Optimized: JSON output, dependency tracking, and auto-ready task detection.
- Zero Conflict: Hash-based IDs (
bd-a1b2) prevent merge collisions in multi-agent/multi-branch workflows. - Invisible Infrastructure: SQLite local cache for speed; background daemon for auto-sync.
- Compaction: Semantic "memory decay" summarizes old closed tasks to save context window.
📖 Essential Commands
| Command | Action |
|---|---|
bd ready |
List tasks with no open blockers. |
bd create "Title" -p 0 |
Create a P0 task. |
bd dep add <child> <parent> |

🔗 Hierarchy & Workflow
Beads supports hierarchical IDs for epics:
bd-a3f8(Epic)bd-a3f8.1(Task)bd-a3f8.1.1(Sub-task)
Stealth Mode: Run bd init --stealth to use Beads locally without committing files to the main repo. Perfect for personal use on shared projects.
