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.
Forgejo is a single go binary and very fast.
You can script it using an API, you have full access to the database which can be sqlite3 or postgres.
Then you get all the benefits of an integrated issue tracker which has a great GUI for humans to review.
I really don't understand the raison-de-etre for beads other than yak shaving, and would really like to.
