beads-viewer
Graph analysis with bv (Beads Viewer). Use when analyzing the task graph, finding blockers, getting recommendations, checking critical path, or when the user mentions "bv", "graph", "dependencies", or "what should I work on".
npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill beads-viewer-mburdo-knowledge-and-vibes --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Beads Viewer (bv) Graph analysis layer for the Beads task graph. Precomputes metrics like PageRank and critical path. ## When This Applies | Signal | Action | |--------|--------| | "What should I work on?" | `bv --robot-triage` | | Need single best task | `bv --robot-next` | | Multi-agent partitioning | `bv --robot-triage --robot-triage-by-track` | | Risk/hygiene check | `bv --robot-alerts` | | Finding blockers | `bv --robot-blocker-chain` | --- ## CRITICAL RULE **Always use `--robot-*` flags. Never run bare `bv`.** Bare `bv` launches a TUI that will hang AI agents. --- ## Session Kickoff ```bash # Default (fast) bv --robot-next # Single best next task # Full triage bundle bv --robot-triage # Blockers, quick wins, commands ``` --- ## Multi-Agent Partitioning ```bash # Split work by parallel tracks bv --robot-triage --robot-triage-by-track # Track details + what each task unblocks bv --robot-plan ``` --- ## Risk & Hygiene Use before starting "big" work: ```bash bv --robot-alerts # Stale issues, blocking cascades, drift bv --robot-suggest # Duplicates, missing deps, cycle breaks ``` --- ## Debugging & Analysis ```bash # What changed recently? bv --robot-diff --diff-since HEAD~5 # H

What does the beads-viewer skill do?
Graph analysis with bv (Beads Viewer). Use when analyzing the task graph, finding blockers, getting recommendations, checking critical path, or when the user mentions "bv", "graph", "dependencies", or "what should I work on".
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill beads-viewer-mburdo-knowledge-and-vibes --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From majiayu000/claude-skill-registry, a repository with 534 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
