## Caveats

- Install with `npx paseo-bm`: it also registers the three bm-* agent roles the plugin needs. There is no other supported install.
- Installed straight from this page the screens load, but the three bm-* agent roles are missing, so the Manager cannot create a Worker.
- Stable 0.3.0 on npm: commands, flags, exit codes and the --json shape are a public contract and change only with a new version.
- Requires Paseo 0.8.0+, Node 22+, the paseo CLI on PATH, macOS or Linux (no Windows), plus the br and bv Beads CLIs.
- Enabling Paseo's agent tools grants them to every agent on the machine, not only paseo-bm's roles.
- The Worker runs without permission prompts; its limits are role instructions only, so review git diff before you commit.

### Source README

#### paseo-bm-plugin — the paseo-bm payload

This package is the **plugin payload** of [paseo-bm](https://github.com/hieunt286/paseo-bm): the
screens it contributes to [Paseo](https://paseo.sh) and the instructions its three agent roles run
on. Loading it gives you **Metric** (what each request did and cost), **Beads** (the workspace's
beads) and **Setup** (tools, skills and role instructions).

##### Install paseo-bm with `npx paseo-bm`

```bash
npx paseo-bm
```

That is the supported install, and it is what you want. The installer copies this payload to a
stable path, registers it with the Paseo daemon, **registers the three agent roles** `bm-manager`,
`bm-worker` and `bm-reviewer`, and asks for the consent those roles need.

##### Limitations of installing this package directly

You can point Paseo at this payload on its own:

```bash
# Paseo 0.9 and newer — npm source
paseo plugin add npm:paseo-bm-plugin@<version>

# Paseo 0.8 — Git source; 0.8 has no npm source type
paseo plugin add hieunt286/paseo-bm --ref <commit> --path plugin
```

Either way the plugin **loads and the screens appear, but the three agent roles are missing**,
because the installer registers them, not the payload. Without those roles the Beads Manager cannot
create a Worker, so the product does not work end to end. Use `npx paseo-bm` instead.

Everything else worth knowing before you install — what paseo-bm writes on your machine, that Paseo
plugins run without a sandbox, and that the Worker runs without permission prompts — is in
[GUIDE.md](https://github.com/hieunt286/paseo-bm/blob/main/GUIDE.md#before-you-install-read-these-warnings).
