Cherry-picked website/, scripts/generate-llms-full.sh, and deploy-docs.yml from joyshmitz's PR. Fixed workflow to trigger on main branch instead of docs/docusaurus-site. Features: - Docusaurus documentation site with llms.txt support - Environment-variable driven config (defaults to steveyegge org) - Automated llms-full.txt generation from docs - GitHub Pages deployment workflow Co-authored-by: joyshmitz <joyshmitz@users.noreply.github.com> 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Executed-By: beads/crew/dave Rig: beads Role: crew

Claude Code Integration
How to use beads with Claude Code.
Setup
Quick Setup
bd setup claude
This installs:
- SessionStart hook - Runs
bd primeon session start - PreCompact hook - Runs
bd syncbefore context compaction
Manual Setup
Add to your Claude Code hooks configuration:
{
"hooks": {
"SessionStart": ["bd prime"],
"PreCompact": ["bd sync"]
}
}
Verify Setup
bd setup claude --check
How It Works
- Session starts →
bd primeinjects ~1-2k tokens of context - You work → Use
bdCLI commands directly - Session compacts →
bd syncsaves work to git - Session ends → Changes synced via git
Essential Commands for Agents
Creating Issues
# Always include description for context
bd create "Fix authentication bug" \
--description="Login fails with special characters in password" \
-t bug -p 1 --json
# Link discovered issues
bd create "Found SQL injection" \
--description="User input not sanitized in query builder" \
--deps discovered-from:bd-42 --json
Working on Issues
# Find ready work
bd ready --json

Best Practices
Always Use --json

Always Include Descriptions
# Good

--deps discovered-from:bd-current --json
Sync Before Session End
# ALWAYS run before ending
