プロジェクトの歴史

The public repository was created on 2025-11-26, shortly after Beads itself appeared. The README positions it as a keyboard-driven terminal interface for Beads and describes graph-aware features such as PageRank, critical path, cycles, kanban, dependency DAG visualization, and robot-mode JSON APIs.

The release stream moved quickly from v0.8.2 and v0.9.x on 2025-11-27 through v0.10.x in late 2025 and v0.17.x in June 2026. Repository metadata showed 1,596 stars and 130 forks on 2026-06-30, substantial adoption for a companion tool.

採用の歴史

Beads Viewer adoption follows Beads adoption: users install it when they want a richer terminal workflow or when agents need graph calculations without parsing raw JSONL. The README documents Homebrew for macOS/Linux, Scoop for Windows, direct release archives, and install scripts.

Its agent-facing adoption is explicit: the README warns not to run bare bv in an agent context and instead documents --robot-triage, --robot-next, --robot-plan, --robot-insights, --robot-history, and related structured-output modes.

使われ方

Human users run bv as an interactive TUI over .beads/issues.jsonl or legacy .beads/beads.jsonl exports, with views for lists, kanban, insights, history, graph navigation, and markdown export.

Agent users call robot flags to get deterministic triage, graph metrics, label health, dependency flow, plans, histories, diffs, forecasts, alerts, suggestions, and graph exports. The README emphasizes stdout-only structured data, stderr diagnostics, bounded history analysis, and checking status fields for approximated or skipped metrics.

パッケージ好きにとっての重要性

Beads Viewer matters as a package because it is a sidecar rather than the primary datastore: it consumes an issue export and supplies terminal UX plus graph algorithms. That split mirrors a broader CLI trend where small tools expose both human TUI and machine JSON modes.

For agent workflows, bv packages graph algorithms as a command-line contract. That is useful because LLMs should not have to reconstruct dependency DAGs, PageRank, cycle checks, or critical paths from raw JSONL on every turn.
