What problem does it solve?

This Skill addresses the "amnesia problem" for AI agents by providing a persistent, git-versioned, dependency-aware task tracking system, ensuring context is maintained across long-horizon projects and multiple agent sessions.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Dependency Management: Define and visualize task dependencies (blocks, parent-child, discovered-from).
• Intelligent Work Prioritization: Query for "ready" work that has no open blockers, ensuring agents always pick up actionable tasks.
• Contextual Discovery: Seamlessly create and link new tasks discovered during implementation.
• Use Case: When working on a large software feature that spans days or weeks, Beads ensures that each agent session starts with a clear understanding of what tasks are unblocked and ready for development, preventing context loss and redundant planning.

Quick Start

Initialize Beads in your project by running bd init in your terminal.
