Steve Yegge 83ae110508 refactor: Remove legacy MCP Agent Mail integration (bd-6gd)
Remove the external MCP Agent Mail server integration that required
running a separate HTTP server and configuring environment variables.

The native `bd mail` system (stored as git-synced issues) remains
unchanged and is the recommended approach for inter-agent messaging.

Files removed:
- cmd/bd/message.go - Legacy `bd message` command
- integrations/beads-mcp/src/beads_mcp/mail.py, mail_tools.py
- lib/beads_mail_adapter.py - Python adapter library
- examples/go-agent/ - Agent Mail-focused example
- examples/python-agent/agent_with_mail.py, AGENT_MAIL_EXAMPLE.md
- docs/AGENT_MAIL*.md, docs/adr/002-agent-mail-integration.md
- tests/integration/test_agent_race.py, test_mail_failures.py, etc.
- tests/benchmarks/ - Agent Mail benchmarks

Updated documentation to remove Agent Mail references while keeping
native `bd mail` documentation intact.

Workflow Patterns

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

# REMOVED (bd-4c74): branch-merge demo - hash IDs eliminate collision resolution

Creating Your Own Agent

The basic agent workflow:

  1. Find ready work: bd ready --json --limit 1
  2. Claim the task: bd update <id> --status in_progress --json
  3. Do the work: Execute the task
  4. Discover new issues: bd create "Found bug" --json
  5. Link discoveries: bd dep add <new-id> <parent-id> --type discovered-from
  6. Complete the task: bd close <id> --reason "Done" --json

All commands support --json for easy parsing.
