Fix 12 linting issues that were causing CI failures:
errcheck (8 fixes):
- cmd/bd/mol_burn.go: wrap wispStore.Close() in defer func
- cmd/bd/mol_burn.go: handle fmt.Scanln() return value
- cmd/bd/mol_squash.go: wrap wispStore.Close() in defer func (2 locations)
- cmd/bd/wisp.go: wrap wispStore.Close() in defer func (3 locations)
- internal/beads/beads.go: wrap mainStore.Close() and wispStore.Close()
gosec G104 (2 fixes):
- internal/storage/sqlite/multirepo.go: handle rows.Close() errors
misspell (1 fix):
- cmd/bd/mol_burn.go: change "Cancelled" to "Canceled"
unparam (1 fix):
- cmd/bd/mol_squash.go: use blank identifier for unused cmd parameter
All fixes follow existing patterns in the codebase:
- defer func() { _ = store.Close() }() for deferred closes
- _ = rows.Close() for explicit closes with ignored errors
- _, _ = fmt.Scanln() for ignored return values

bd - Beads
Distributed, git-backed graph issue tracker for AI agents.
Beads provides a persistent, structured memory for coding agents. It replaces messy markdown plans with a dependency-aware graph, allowing agents to handle long-horizon tasks without losing context.
⚡ Quick Start
# Install (macOS/Linux)
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/steveyegge/beads/main/scripts/install.sh | bash
# Initialize (Humans run this once)
bd init
# Tell your agent
echo "Use 'bd' for task tracking" >> AGENTS.md
🛠 Features
- Git as Database: Issues stored as JSONL in
.beads/. Versioned, branched, and merged like code. - Agent-Optimized: JSON output, dependency tracking, and auto-ready task detection.
- Zero Conflict: Hash-based IDs (
bd-a1b2) prevent merge collisions in multi-agent/multi-branch workflows. - Invisible Infrastructure: SQLite local cache for speed; background daemon for auto-sync.
- Compaction: Semantic "memory decay" summarizes old closed tasks to save context window.
