comments

Commands for viewing and adding comments on a Beads issue. Beads is an issue-tracking system, and comments are its discussion thread separate from the issue's main fields.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them to read an issue's discussion, add a progress update, record a design decision, ask a question, or note a blocker.
Why use it?
They keep progress notes, questions, decisions, and links together without changing the issue's title or description.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Made for: Claude Code.

Per session 7 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 227 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

comments scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Origin

This is a copy

100% identical to comments — 2 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

What it actually says

View or add comments to a beads issue.

Comments are separate from issue properties (title, description, etc.) because they serve a different purpose: they're a discussion thread rather than singular editable fields. Use bd comments for threaded conversations and bd edit for core issue metadata.

View Comments

To view all comments on an issue:

  • $1: Issue ID (e.g., bd-123)

Use the beads CLI bd comments <issue-id> to list all comments. Show them to the user with timestamps and authors.

Add Comment

To add a comment:

  • $1: "add"
  • $2: Issue ID
  • $3: Comment text (or use -f flag for file input)

Use bd comments add <issue-id> "comment text" to add a comment. Confirm the comment was added successfully.

Comments are useful for:

  • Progress updates during work
  • Design notes or technical decisions
  • Links to related resources
  • Questions or blockers
Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
