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

# Advanced Features
|
|
|
|
Advanced beads functionality.
|
|
|
|
## Issue Rename
|
|
|
|
Rename issues while preserving references:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
bd rename bd-42 bd-new-id
|
|
bd rename bd-42 bd-new-id --dry-run # Preview
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Updates:
|
|
- All dependencies pointing to old ID
|
|
- All references in other issues
|
|
- Comments and descriptions
|
|
|
|
## Issue Merge
|
|
|
|
Merge duplicate issues:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
bd merge bd-42 bd-43 --into bd-41
|
|
bd merge bd-42 bd-43 --into bd-41 --dry-run
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
What gets merged:
|
|
- Dependencies → target
|
|
- Text references updated across all issues
|
|
- Source issues closed with merge reason
|
|
|
|
## Database Compaction
|
|
|
|
Reduce database size by compacting old issues:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# View compaction statistics
|
|
bd admin compact --stats
|
|
|
|
# Preview candidates (30+ days closed)
|
|
bd admin compact --analyze --json
|
|
|
|
# Apply agent-generated summary
|
|
bd admin compact --apply --id bd-42 --summary summary.txt
|
|
|
|
# Immediate deletion (CAUTION!)
|
|
bd admin cleanup --force
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**When to compact:**
|
|
- Database > 10MB with old closed issues
|
|
- After major milestones
|
|
- Before archiving project phase
|
|
|
|
## Restore from History
|
|
|
|
View deleted or compacted issues from git:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
bd restore bd-42 --show
|
|
bd restore bd-42 --to-file issue.json
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Database Inspection
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Schema info
|
|
bd info --schema --json
|
|
|
|
# Raw database query (advanced)
|
|
sqlite3 .beads/beads.db "SELECT * FROM issues LIMIT 5"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Custom Tables
|
|
|
|
Extend the database with custom tables:
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
// In Go code using beads as library
|
|
storage.UnderlyingDB().Exec(`
|
|
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS custom_table (...)
|
|
`)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
See [EXTENDING.md](https://github.com/steveyegge/beads/blob/main/docs/EXTENDING.md).
|
|
|
|
## Event System
|
|
|
|
Subscribe to beads events:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# View recent events
|
|
bd events list --since 1h
|
|
|
|
# Watch events in real-time
|
|
bd events watch
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Events:
|
|
- `issue.created`
|
|
- `issue.updated`
|
|
- `issue.closed`
|
|
- `dependency.added`
|
|
- `sync.completed`
|
|
|
|
## Batch Operations
|
|
|
|
### Create Multiple
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cat issues.jsonl | bd import -i -
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Update Multiple
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
bd list --status open --priority 4 --json | \
|
|
jq -r '.[].id' | \
|
|
xargs -I {} bd update {} --priority 3
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Close Multiple
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
bd list --label "sprint-1" --status open --json | \
|
|
jq -r '.[].id' | \
|
|
xargs -I {} bd close {} --reason "Sprint complete"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## API Access
|
|
|
|
Use beads as a Go library:
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
import "github.com/steveyegge/beads/internal/storage"
|
|
|
|
db, _ := storage.NewSQLite(".beads/beads.db")
|
|
issues, _ := db.ListIssues(storage.ListOptions{
|
|
Status: "open",
|
|
})
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Performance Tuning
|
|
|
|
### Large Databases
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Enable WAL mode
|
|
bd config set database.wal_mode true
|
|
|
|
# Increase cache
|
|
bd config set database.cache_size 10000
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Many Concurrent Agents
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Use event-driven daemon
|
|
export BEADS_DAEMON_MODE=events
|
|
bd daemons killall
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### CI/CD Optimization
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Disable daemon in CI
|
|
export BEADS_NO_DAEMON=true
|
|
bd --no-daemon list
|
|
```
