Handle unknown bead statuses with semantic mapping + warning#58
Merged
Conversation
The kanban board crashed when beads had statuses outside the 4 known columns (open, in_progress, inreview, closed). The Beads CLI supports additional statuses like blocked, deferred, tombstone, hooked, done, pending, and resolved. Changes: - Add STATUS_MAP in types/index.ts mapping known bd statuses to columns - Add mapBeadStatus() in beads-parser.ts to map at parse time - Filter out tombstone beads (soft-deleted) - Attach _statusBadge metadata for visual badges on mapped beads - Add defensive fallback in groupBeadsByStatus() and kanban-board grouping - Render status badges (Blocked/Deferred/Waiting) on bead cards - Add warning indicator in toolbar for truly unknown statuses with tooltip - Add sr-only text and role="status" for accessibility Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

The kanban board crashes when beads have statuses outside the 4 known columns (open, in_progress, inreview, closed). The Beads CLI supports additional statuses: blocked, deferred, tombstone, hooked, done, pending, resolved, plus custom-mapped statuses. Implement smart mapping of known statuses to existing columns with visual badges, hide tombstones, and show a warning indicator for truly unknown statuses.
