bd onboard

Display a minimal snippet to add to your agent instructions file for bd integration.

By default, the agent instructions file is AGENTS.md. Use 'bd init --agents-file' to configure a different filename (e.g. BEADS.md).

This outputs a small (~10 line) snippet that points to 'bd prime' for full workflow context. This is the same minimal profile that 'bd init' generates by default. This approach:

• Keeps your agent file lean (doesn't bloat with instructions) • bd prime provides dynamic, always-current workflow details • Hooks auto-inject bd prime at session start

For agents that don't support hooks (Codex, Factory, etc.), use 'bd init --agents-profile=full' to embed the complete command reference.
