Platforms: macOS, Linux, Windows, FreeBSD Docs: https://beads.gascity.com/ 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 Note: Beads is a CLI tool you install once and use everywhere. You don't need to clone this repository into your project. bd init creates or updates AGENTS.md by default so agents can discover the beads workflow, and also installs project Claude/Codex integrations unless you pass --skip-agents or --stealth . Use bd setup --list to see supported integrations, including bd setup codex , bd setup factory , bd setup claude , bd setup mux , bd setup cursor , and more. See Agent and IDE setup. Manual copy-paste is only for unsupported agents, existing projects where you cannot rerun bd init / bd setup , or custom instruction files. In those cases, run bd onboard and paste the printed snippet into the file your agent reads. If your agent is not covered by bd setup , add this minimal AGENTS.md section: 🛠 Features Dolt-Powered: Version-controlled SQL database with cell-level merge, native branching, and built-in sync via Dolt remotes. 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.
