2233## Project Overview
44**Hypothesis clone built on AT Protocol** - Web annotation system similar to Hypothesis but using ATProto/Bluesky infrastructure.
55+66+## Issue Tracking with bd (beads)
77+88+**IMPORTANT**: This project uses **bd (beads)** for ALL issue tracking. Do NOT use markdown TODOs, task lists, or other tracking methods.
99+1010+### Why bd?
1111+1212+- Dependency-aware: Track blockers and relationships between issues
1313+- Git-friendly: Auto-syncs to JSONL for version control
1414+- Agent-optimized: JSON output, ready work detection, discovered-from links
1515+- Prevents duplicate tracking systems and confusion
1616+1717+### Quick Start
1818+1919+**Check for ready work:**
2020+```bash
2121+bd ready --json
2222+```
2323+2424+**Create new issues:**
2525+```bash
2626+bd create "Issue title" -t bug|feature|task -p 0-4 --json
2727+bd create "Issue title" -p 1 --deps discovered-from:bd-123 --json
2828+```
2929+3030+**Claim and update:**
3131+```bash
3232+bd update bd-42 --status in_progress --json
3333+bd update bd-42 --priority 1 --json
3434+```
3535+3636+**Complete work:**
3737+```bash
3838+bd close bd-42 --reason "Completed" --json
3939+```
4040+4141+### Issue Types
4242+4343+- `bug` - Something broken
4444+- `feature` - New functionality
4545+- `task` - Work item (tests, docs, refactoring)
4646+- `epic` - Large feature with subtasks
4747+- `chore` - Maintenance (dependencies, tooling)
4848+4949+### Priorities
5050+5151+- `0` - Critical (security, data loss, broken builds)
5252+- `1` - High (major features, important bugs)
5353+- `2` - Medium (default, nice-to-have)
5454+- `3` - Low (polish, optimization)
5555+- `4` - Backlog (future ideas)
5656+5757+### Important Rules
5858+5959+- ✅ Use bd for ALL task tracking
6060+- ✅ Always use `--json` flag for programmatic use
6161+- ✅ Link discovered work with `discovered-from` dependencies
6262+- ✅ Check `bd ready` before asking "what should I work on?"
6363+- ✅ Store AI planning docs in `history/` directory
6464+- ❌ Do NOT create markdown TODO lists
6565+- ❌ Do NOT use external issue trackers
6666+- ❌ Do NOT duplicate tracking systems
6767+- ❌ Do NOT clutter repo root with planning documents

570671## Future Architecture Plans
772- **via.seams.so proxy**: Need to build a proxy service (like Hypothesis's via.hypothes.is) for annotation injection
