Steve Yegge 046e852861 Fix GH#254: bd init now detects and chains with existing git hooks
- Detect existing git hooks (pre-commit framework, custom scripts)
- Prompt user with 3 options: chain (recommended), overwrite, skip
- Chain mode preserves existing hooks by calling them first
- Overwrite mode creates timestamped backups
- Add tests for hook detection and installation
- Update documentation with chaining feature

Fixes silent overwrites of pre-commit framework hooks that caused
test failures to slip through.

Beads Examples

This directory contains examples of how to integrate bd with AI agents and workflows.

Examples

  • python-agent/ - Simple Python agent that discovers ready work and completes tasks
  • bash-agent/ - Bash script showing the full agent workflow
  • monitor-webui/ - Standalone web interface for real-time issue monitoring and visualization
  • markdown-to-jsonl/ - Convert markdown planning docs to bd issues
  • github-import/ - Import issues from GitHub repositories
  • git-hooks/ - Pre-configured git hooks for automatic export/import

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.
