Does it modify my project files?

It will offer to create or update a CLAUDE.md file to maintain task context and project instructions, ensuring Claude remains aware of your workflow across sessions.

Beads is a lightweight issue tracker designed for developers; this skill allows Claude Code to interact with it natively through the 'bd' command-line interface.

Can I manage task dependencies?

Yes, the skill supports creating tasks and linking them using parent-child relationships to maintain a clear work hierarchy.

How does this skill activate?

The skill activates automatically when you start a Claude Code session in a directory containing a .beads folder, allowing for immediate task status reporting.

Is synchronization manual or automatic?

The skill proactively triggers 'bd sync' during task completion, selection, and refresh requests to ensure your local state matches the tracker.

Productivity & Workflow

Manages project tasks and issue tracking workflows directly within Claude Code using the Beads issue tracker.

About

The Beads Workflow skill provides a proactive task management system for developers using the Beads issue tracker. It automatically activates upon session start to help users resume work, track progress via subtasks, and maintain project state in CLAUDE.md. By integrating task lifecycle commands directly into the AI's workflow, it ensures that task statuses, priorities, and descriptions remain synchronized across the development team without leaving the terminal interface.
