Addresses GitHub Discussion #366 where users reported Claude Code creating issues with titles but no descriptions. Two-pronged solution: 1. Documentation improvements (bd-na8r): - Updated AGENTS.md with prominent guidance section - Added good/bad examples showing why/what/how to include - Updated all bd create examples to include --description - Enhanced MCP tool docstring with importance note - Updated .github/copilot-instructions.md 2. Code validation (bd-bcrt): - Added friendly yellow warning when description is empty - Warning skips test issues (title contains "test") - Works in both CLI and daemon modes - Non-blocking to preserve quick workflows Evidence from our own projects showed significant empty description rates: - ~/src/beads: 110/630 (17.5%) - ~/wyvern: 8/119 (6.7%) - ~/src/vc: 3/170 (1.8%) Fixes bd-0tr0, bd-na8r, bd-bcrt 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
