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. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# Python Agent Example
|
|
|
|
A simple Python script demonstrating how an AI agent can use bd to manage tasks.
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
|
|
- Finds ready work using `bd ready --json`
|
|
- Claims tasks by updating status
|
|
- Simulates discovering new issues during work
|
|
- Links discovered issues with `discovered-from` dependency
|
|
- Completes tasks and moves to the next one
|
|
|
|
## Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
- Python 3.7+
|
|
- bd installed: `go install github.com/steveyegge/beads/cmd/bd@latest`
|
|
- A beads database initialized: `bd init`
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Make the script executable
|
|
chmod +x agent.py
|
|
|
|
# Run the agent
|
|
./agent.py
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## What It Does
|
|
|
|
1. Queries for ready work (no blocking dependencies)
|
|
2. Claims the highest priority task
|
|
3. "Works" on the task (simulated)
|
|
4. If the task involves implementation, discovers a testing task
|
|
5. Creates the new testing task and links it with `discovered-from`
|
|
6. Completes the original task
|
|
7. Repeats until no ready work remains
|
|
|
|
## Example Output
|
|
|
|
```

|
|
|
## Integration with Real Agents
|
|
|
|
To integrate with a real LLM-based agent:
|
|
|
|
1. Replace `simulate_work()` with actual LLM calls
|
|
2. Parse the LLM's response for discovered issues/bugs
|
|
3. Use the issue ID to track context across conversations
|
|
4. Export/import JSONL to share state across agent sessions
|
|
|
|
## Advanced Usage
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
# Create an agent with custom behavior
|
|
agent = BeadsAgent()
|
|
|
|
# Find specific types of work
|
|
ready = agent.run_bd("ready", "--priority", "1", "--assignee", "bot")
|
|
|
|
# Create issues with labels
|
|
agent.run_bd("create", "New task", "-l", "urgent,backend")
|
|
|
|
# Query dependency tree
|
|
tree = agent.run_bd("dep", "tree", "bd-1")
|
|
```
