What problem does it solve?
This Skill helps you update the shared backlog ledger without overwriting a collaborator's status changes, and it keeps deferred findings out of the backlog until they are ready to promote.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Conflict-safe backlog edits: Re-read the ledger, edit only your own row, and keep backlog commits separate from code commits.
- Conflict recovery: When a cas_conflict happens, re-read the new state and re-apply your change instead of blindly reverting the file.
- DEFER and follow-up routing: Send DEFER, p2, and follow-up items to the holding area first, then promote them only when the trigger and definition of ready are satisfied.
Quick Start
Use the backlog skill to update the relevant task row in docs/planning/backlog.md while preserving collaborator edits and avoiding blind reverts.
