Looks great, well done.

What I do not understand about beads or alternatives such as this is: why not just use github issues? Or is it just the aversion of being tied to github?

My agent team does, easy to tell them so and give them access to suitable gh commands.

vendor lockin + slow network calls (+ GitHub is down sometimes). if you want to search over hundreds of issues, `gh search` isn’t bad but you can do a lot better with a filesystem or embedded database

that said for work I use GitHub and have CC make use of the gh CLI, works great. but I have wanted some sqlite/duckdb tracker you could just commit, maybe with back and forth between markdown files. also GH projects are pretty slow/clunky
