Migrate docs from bd (beads) to br (beadsrust). An agent skill from Dicklesworthstone/beads_rust.

  • Updating AGENTS.md
  • SKILL.md covers Why This Matters, THE EXACT PROMPT — Single File…, Decision Tree: What Are You… and The One Behavioral Difference, plus 7 more sections
  • Runs Shell scripts from its folder; calls git
  • Converting bd commands

What it does

Bd To Br Migration is an agent skill from Dicklesworthstone/beads_rust. Migrate docs from bd (beads) to br (beadsrust). Use when updating AGENTS.md, converting bd commands, "bd sync" → "br sync --flush-only", or beads migration.

Its SKILL.md is about 2.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 10 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `SELF-TEST.md`, `references/BULK.md` and `references/PITFALLS.md`).

It sits in Agent Workflows, covering Issue triage. It works with Rust, Git and SQLite. The repository describes itself as: Fast Rust port of Steve Yegge's beads: local-first, non-invasive issue tracker storing tasks in SQLite with JSONL export for git collaboration.

When your agent uses it

  • Updating AGENTS.md
  • Converting bd commands
  • Bd sync → br sync --flush-only
  • Beads migration

Example prompts

  • “bd sync”
  • “br sync --flush-only”
  • “/bd-to-br-migration”

Requirements

  • A Bash shell

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit fb5041c. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships 2 files in scripts/ (Shell), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • git

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Bd To Br Migration loads about 2.2k tokens when it runs, and up to ~6.7k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 44 tokens; SKILL.md has 379 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~44
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.2k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~6.7k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 379 words (~2,175 tokens).

“Incomplete migrations leave broken docs. Agents follow stale bd sync instructions, expect auto-commit, and lose work. This skill ensures complete, verified migrations.”
