Agent Instructions

This project uses bd (beads) for issue tracking. Run bd prime for full workflow context.

Architecture in one line: Issues live in a local Dolt database (.beads/dolt/); cross-machine sync uses bd dolt push/pull (a git-compatible protocol), stored under refs/dolt/data on your git remote — separate from refs/heads/* where your code lives. .beads/issues.jsonl is a passive export, not the wire protocol.

See SYNC_CONCEPTS.md for the one-screen overview and anti-patterns (don't treat JSONL as the source of truth; don't bd import during normal operation; don't reach for third-party Dolt hosting before trying the default).

Quick Reference

bd ready              # Find available work
bd show <id>          # View issue details
bd update <id> --claim  # Claim work atomically
bd close <id>         # Complete work
bd dolt push          # Push beads data to remote

Non-Interactive Shell Commands

ALWAYS use non-interactive flags with file operations to avoid hanging on confirmation prompts.

Shell commands like cp, mv, and rm may be aliased to include -i (interactive) mode on some systems, causing the agent to hang indefinitely waiting for y/n input.

Use these forms instead:

# Force overwrite without prompting
cp -f source dest           # NOT: cp source dest
mv -f source dest           # NOT: mv source dest
rm -f file                  # NOT: rm file

# For recursive operations
rm -rf directory            # NOT: rm -r directory
cp -rf source dest          # NOT: cp -r source dest

Other commands that may prompt:

• scp - use -o BatchMode=yes for non-interactive
• ssh - use -o BatchMode=yes to fail instead of prompting
• apt-get - use -y flag
• brew - use HOMEBREW_NO_AUTO_UPDATE=1 env var
