# Agent Instructions
|
|
|
|
This project uses **bd** (beads) for issue tracking. Run `bd prime` for full workflow context.
|
|
|
|
## Quick Reference
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
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:**
|
|
```bash
|
|
# 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

## Beads Issue Tracker
|
|
|
|
This project uses **bd (beads)** for issue tracking. Run `bd prime` to see full workflow context and commands.
|
|
|
|
### Quick Reference
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
bd ready # Find available work
|
|
bd show <id> # View issue details
|
|
bd update <id> --claim # Claim work
|
|
bd close <id> # Complete work
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Rules
|
|
|
|
- Use `bd` for ALL task tracking — do NOT use TodoWrite, TaskCreate, or markdown TODO lists
|
|
- Run `bd prime` for detailed command reference and session close protocol
|
|
- Use `bd remember` for persistent knowledge — do NOT use MEMORY.md files
|
|
|
|
## Session Completion
|
|
|
|
**When ending a work session**, you MUST complete ALL steps below. Work is NOT complete until `git push` succeeds.
|
|
|
|
**MANDATORY WORKFLOW:**
|
|
|
|
1. **File issues for remaining work** - Create issues for anything that needs follow-up
|
|
2. **Run quality gates** (if code changed) - Tests, linters, builds
|
|
3. **Update issue status** - Close finished work, update in-progress items
|
|
4. **PUSH TO REMOTE** - This is MANDATORY:
|
|
```bash
|
|
git pull --rebase
|
|
bd dolt push
|
|
git push
|
|
git status # MUST show "up to date with origin"
|
|
```
|
|
5. **Clean up** - Clear stashes, prune remote branches
|
|
6. **Verify** - All changes committed AND pushed
|
|
7. **Hand off** - Provide context for next session
|
|
|
|
**CRITICAL RULES:**
|
|
- Work is NOT complete until `git push` succeeds
|
|
- NEVER stop before pushing - that leaves work stranded locally
|
|
- NEVER say "ready to push when you are" - YOU must push
|
|
- If push fails, resolve and retry until it succeeds

## MCP Tools: code-review-graph
|
|
|
|
**IMPORTANT: This project has a knowledge graph. ALWAYS use the
|
|
code-review-graph MCP tools BEFORE using Grep/Glob/Read to explore
|
|
the codebase.** The graph is faster, cheaper (fewer tokens), and gives
|
|
you structural context (callers, dependents, test coverage) that file
|
|
scanning cannot.
|
|
|
|
### When to use graph tools FIRST
|
|
|
|
- **Exploring code**: `semantic_search_nodes_tool` or `query_graph_tool` instead of Grep
|
|
- **Understanding impact**: `get_impact_radius_tool` instead of manually tracing imports
|
|
- **Code review**: `detect_changes_tool` + `get_review_context_tool` instead of reading entire files
|
|
- **Finding relationships**: `query_graph_tool` with callers_of/callees_of/imports_of/tests_for
|
|
- **Architecture questions**: `get_architecture_overview_tool` + `list_communities_tool`
|
|
|
|
Fall back to Grep/Glob/Read **only** when the graph doesn't cover what you need.
|
|
|
|
### Key Tools
|
|
|
|
| Tool | Use when |
|
|
|------|----------|
|
|
| `detect_changes_tool` | Reviewing code changes — gives risk-scored analysis |
|
|
| `get_review_context_tool` | Need source snippets for review — token-efficient |
|
|
| `get_impact_radius_tool` | Understanding blast radius of a change |
|
|
| `get_affected_flows_tool` | Finding which execution paths are impacted |
|
|
| `query_graph_tool` | Tracing callers, callees, imports, tests, dependencies |
|
|
| `semantic_search_nodes_tool` | Finding functions/classes by name or keyword |
|
|
| `get_architecture_overview_tool` | Understanding high-level codebase structure |
|
|
| `refactor_tool` | Planning renames, finding dead code |
|
|
|
|
### Workflow
|
|
|
|
1. The graph auto-updates on file changes (via hooks).
|
|
2. Use `detect_changes_tool` for code review.
|
|
3. Use `get_affected_flows_tool` to understand impact.
|
|
4. Use `query_graph_tool` pattern="tests_for" to check coverage.
