 {"id":"gt-o3is","title":"gt sling pinToHook doesn't set pinned boolean field","description":"## Updated Root Cause Analysis (2025-12-23)\n\nThe issue is **NOT** in gt as originally thought. It's in the beads (bd) codebase.\n\n### What happens:\n1. `bd pin` correctly sets pinned=1 in SQLite\n2. Any subsequent `bd` command (even `bd show`) resets pinned to 0\n3. This happens even with `--no-auto-import` and `--sandbox` flags\n\n### Evidence:\n```bash\n$ bd --no-daemon pin gt-k08o --for=max\n📌 Pinned gt-k08o to max's hook\n\n$ sqlite3 beads.db 'SELECT id, pinned FROM issues WHERE id=\"gt-k08o\"'\ngt-k08o|1   # ← Correct immediately after pin\n\n$ bd --no-daemon --no-auto-import show gt-k08o\n[shows issue without pinned field]\n\n$ sqlite3 beads.db 'SELECT id, pinned FROM issues WHERE id=\"gt-k08o\"'  \ngt-k08o|0   # ← WRONG\\! bd show overwrote it\n```\n\n### Where to look:\nThe bug is likely in one of these beads code paths:\n- Some import/hydration running despite --no-auto-import\n- WAL mode not flushing before subsequent reads\n- Multi-repo or redirect handling corrupting pinned field\n\n### Workaround:\nThe handoff bead attachment mechanism (AttachMolecule) works correctly.\nThe pinned field is cosmetic for `bd hook` visibility only.\ngt sling correctly uses AttachMolecule for work assignment.\n\n### Next steps:\nCreate a beads issue to fix this properly in the bd codebase.\nThis is not a gt issue.","notes":"Created beads bug: bd-phtv in ~/gt/beads","status":"open","priority":1,"issue_type":"bug","created_at":"2025-12-23T04:41:12.668958-08:00","updated_at":"2025-12-23T12:32:43.506087-08:00"}

Unpin the displaced molecule (clear assignee, set pinned=false)\n2. Print warning in tool output: 'Warning: displaced gt-xxx back to ready pool'\n3. Proceed with new sling\n\nThis ensures:\n- No silent data loss\n- Agent sees the warning and can act on it\n- Human caller sees what happened\n- Displaced work is discoverable via 'bd ready'\n\nImplementation location: checkHookCollision() or the sling handlers themselves (after the --force check passes)","status":"open","priority":2,"issue_type":"task","created_at":"2025-12-23T16:00:23.713733-08:00","updated_at":"2025-12-23T16:00:23.713733-08:00"}
