Reference for braid, this project's issue tracker (the "skein" of "strands"). Use whenever you need braid command syntax — finding ready work, creating/updating/closing strands, dependencies, ready/blocked queries — or when a user mentions braid, a strand, or a bd- issue id and you need the authoritative, version-matched usage. The body defers to `braid agents-info` for the full guide.

# braid issue tracking
This project tracks issues ("strands") with **braid**. For the
authoritative, version-matched usage guide — every command, flag, and
convention — run:
braid agents-info
Core loop: `braid ready` finds workable strands; claim one with `braid
update <id> --status in_progress --assignee <you>`; leave a trail with
`braid comment <id> "..."`; finish with `braid close <id> --reason "..."`.
File discovered work as you go in one shot:
braid create "<title>" --type <task|bug|...> --deps discovered-from:<current-id>
Attribute your changes with `BRAID_AUTHOR=<you>`.
<!-- END BRAID -->
