v0.38.0

bdi 0.38.0

Minor release, 0.37.0 → 0.38.0.

Highlights

bdi watch hears a write to a tracker within seconds, with nothing else running. Give a project's entry serve = "127.0.0.1:8742", the address its bd serve listens on, and the watcher follows that tracker's event stream. A write from any bd client then reaches every watching agent and script within seconds. A project without serve is polled as before.

A deferred bead is sent again when its date arrives. Each bead line from the watcher now carries defer_until_reached, which turns true once the bead's defer_until has passed, so whatever waits on a deferred bead hears when it comes due.

bdi gates tells failing and passing checks with a fine-grained token. Where GitHub refuses the token a commit's check runs, as it does on a private repository, bdi gates reads the commit's workflow runs and statuses instead. Give the token Actions read access for this.

bdi exits cleanly when its terminal or its reader goes away. Closing the pane under a running bdi no longer makes it abort, and bdi --beads piped into a command that stops reading early now just stops.

Upgrading

The event stream needs bd's events journal turned on where bd serve runs. Nothing polls a project while its stream is down, so it shows as stale once covered_for_seconds passes.

Maintenance

A fix to how the watcher reports a tracker outage, faster and leaner tests, documentation, and dependency bumps.
