Expose full Storage interface and all types through public beads.go API, enabling external Go projects (like VC) to import Beads directly instead of spawning CLI processes. Changes: - Expanded beads.go with all public types (Issue, Dependency, Comment, etc.) - Added all constants (Status, IssueType, DependencyType, EventType) - Created comprehensive integration tests (beads_integration_test.go) - Added library usage example at examples/library-usage/ - Documented library integration in README.md Test coverage: 96.4% on public API, 14 integration tests, all passing. Closes bd-58, bd-59 Amp-Thread-ID: https://ampcode.com/threads/T-f0093c79-7422-45e2-b0ed-0ddfebc9ffea Co-authored-by: Amp <amp@ampcode.com>
Beads Examples
This directory contains examples of how to integrate bd with AI agents and workflows.
Examples
- python-agent/ - Simple Python agent that discovers ready work and completes tasks
- bash-agent/ - Bash script showing the full agent workflow
- markdown-to-jsonl/ - Convert markdown planning docs to bd issues
- github-import/ - Import issues from GitHub repositories
- git-hooks/ - Pre-configured git hooks for automatic export/import
- branch-merge/ - Branch merge workflow with collision resolution

Quick Start
# Try the Python agent example
cd python-agent
python agent.py
# Try the bash agent example
cd bash-agent
./agent.sh
# Install git hooks
cd git-hooks
./install.sh
# Try branch merge collision resolution
cd branch-merge
./demo.sh
Creating Your Own Agent
The basic agent workflow:
- Find ready work:
bd ready --json --limit 1 - Claim the task:
bd update <id> --status in_progress --json - Do the work: Execute the task
- Discover new issues:
bd create "Found bug" --json - Link discoveries:
bd dep add <new-id> <parent-id> --type discovered-from - Complete the task:
bd close <id> --reason "Done" --json
All commands support --json for easy parsing.
