Perles
A terminal UI for the Beads issue tracker, with its own boolean query language for searching issues, browsing dependency trees, and building custom kanban views without leaving the terminal.
Perles is a terminal user interface for Beads-based issue tracking, built around a custom Beads Query Language, BQL, for searching issues with boolean logic and filtering by date. It lets a user traverse dependency trees between issues and build custom kanban board views, all from the terminal rather than a separate web interface.
It runs inside any directory that contains a Beads data folder, working against either the standard Beads tool or its Rust reimplementation, and requires a minimum Beads database version, with a migration command available for older projects. It installs through a shell install script or Homebrew on macOS and Linux, and is described as supporting a multi-agent orchestration control-plane workflow runner on top of the underlying issue-tracking data. It is MIT licensed and written in Go.
