Use --parent <epic-id> to establish the parent/child relationship:
bd create --title="Child issue" --type=task --parent=<epic-id> --description="Description" --priority=2
Use --silent to output only the issue ID:
EPIC_ID=$(bd create --title="Epic title" --type=epic --silent)
bd create --title="Child task" --type=task --parent=$EPIC_ID --silent
# issue-A depends on issue-B (issue-B must complete first)
bd dep add <issue-A> <issue-B>
# Or: issue-B blocks issue-A (equivalent)
bd dep <issue-B> --blocks <issue-A>
bd epic status # Show completion status of all epics
bd children <epic-id> # List child issues of an epic
