feat: Initialize Rust project with dependencies and tooling

Set up the GitLab Inbox (gi) CLI tool as a Rust 2024 edition project.

Dependencies organized by purpose:
- Database: rusqlite (bundled SQLite), sqlite-vec for vector search
- Serialization: serde/serde_json for GitLab API responses
- CLI: clap for argument parsing, dialoguer for interactive prompts,
  comfy-table for formatted output, indicatif for progress bars
- HTTP: reqwest with tokio async runtime for GitLab API calls
- Async: async-stream and futures for paginated API iteration
- Utilities: thiserror for error types, chrono for timestamps,
  flate2 for payload compression, sha2 for content hashing
- Logging: tracing with env-filter for structured debug output

Release profile optimized for small binary size (LTO, strip symbols).

Project structure follows standard Rust conventions with src/lib.rs
exposing modules and src/main.rs as CLI entry point.

Added .gitignore for Rust/Cargo artifacts and local database files.
Added AGENTS.md with TDD workflow guidance and beads issue tracking
integration instructions for AI-assisted development.

+# AGENTS.md
+
+This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.
+
+## TDD Requirements
+
+Test-first development is mandatory:
+1. **RED** - Write failing test first
+2. **GREEN** - Minimal implementation to pass
+3. **REFACTOR** - Clean up while green
+
+## Key Patterns
+
+Find the simplest solution that meets all acceptance criteria.
+Use third party libraries whenever there's a well-maintained, active, and widely adopted solution (for example, date-fns for TS date math)
+Build extensible pieces of logic that can easily be integrated with other pieces.
+DRY principles should be loosely held.
+Architecture MUST be clear and well thought-out. Ask the user for clarification whenever ambiguity is discovered around architecture, or you think a better approach than planned exists.
+
+## Beads Rust Workflow Integration
+
+This project uses [beads_viewer](https://github.com/Dicklesworthstone/beads_viewer) for issue tracking. Issues are stored in `.beads/` and tracked in git.
+
+### Essential Commands
+
+```bash
+# View issues (launches TUI - NOT FOR AGENT USE, human only)
+bv
+
+# CLI commands for agents (use --json for machine-readable output)
+br ready --json       # Show issues ready to work (no blockers)
+br list --status=open --json # All open issues
+br show <id> --json   # Full issue details with dependencies
+br create --title="..." --type=task --priority=2
+br update <id> --status=in_progress
+br close <id> --reason="Completed"
+br close <id1> <id2>  # Close multiple issues at once
+br sync               # Commit and push changes
+```
+
+### Robot Mode (Agent-Optimized bv Commands)
+
+Use `bv --robot-*` flags for structured JSON output optimized for AI agents:
+
+```bash
+# Essential robot commands
+bv --robot-triage     # THE MEGA-COMMAND: unified analysis, recommendations, health
+bv --robot-next       # Single top recommendation (minimal output)
+bv --robot-plan       # Dependency-respecting execution plan
+bv --robot-priority   # Priority recommendations with reasoning
+bv --robot-insights   # Deep graph analysis (PageRank, bottlenecks, etc.)
+
+# File impact analysis (check before editing)
+bv --robot-impact <file>           # Risk assessment for modifying files
+bv --robot-file-beads <path>       # What beads have touched this file?
+bv --robot-file-hotspots           # High-churn files (conflict zones)
+bv --robot-related <bead-id>       # Find related beads
+
+# Filtering options (work with most robot commands)
+bv --robot-triage --robot-by-label=backend
+bv --robot-priority --robot-min-confidence=0.7
+bv --robot-insights --label=api    # Scope to label subgraph
+```
+
+Run `bv -robot-help` for complete robot mode documentation.
+
+### Workflow Pattern
+
+1. **Start**: Run `br ready` to find actionable work
+2. **Claim**: Use `br update <id> --status=in_progress`
+3. **Work**: Implement the task
+4. **Complete**: Use `br close <id>`
+5. **Sync**: Always run `br sync` at session end
+
+### Key Concepts
+
+- **Dependencies**: Issues can block other issues. `br ready` shows only unblocked work.
+- **Priority**: P0=critical, P1=high, P2=medium, P3=low, P4=backlog (use numbers, not words)
+- **Types**: task, bug, feature, epic, question, docs
+- **Blocking**: `br dep add <issue> <depends-on>` to add dependencies
+
+### Session Protocol
+
+**Before ending any session, run this checklist:**
+
+```bash
+git status              # Check what changed
+git add <files>         # Stage code changes
+br sync                 # Commit beads changes
+git commit -m "..."     # Commit code
+br sync                 # Commit any new beads changes
+git push                # Push to remote
+```
+
+### Best Practices
+
+- Check `br ready` at session start to find available work
+- Update status as you work (in_progress → closed)
+- Create new issues with `br create` when you discover tasks
+- Use descriptive titles and set appropriate priority/type
+- Always `br sync` before ending session

+# CLI commands for agents (use these instead)
+bd ready              # Show issues ready to work (no blockers)
+bd list --status=open # All open issues
