SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Capturing tasks from messy inputs is slow and error-prone, especially when you need consistent structure for later tracking and execution.

Core Features & Use Cases

Task record creation: Turns a rough idea or detailed spec into a structured Task in the Binder knowledge graph.
Captured vs inferred fields: Keeps user-provided information as Captured while generating clearly marked Inferred fields that the user can correct.
Duplicate-aware flow: Checks existing tasks to handle exact duplicates, partial overlap for merging, or distinct related tasks with linking.
Draft-to-pending finalization: Supports an optional “finalize” step that enriches Definition of Ready fields and links dependencies or related items.

Quick Start

Ask: Capture a new task for my backlog using the details I provide, and propose the Task record with captured and inferred fields.

FAQPage Schema

How do I capture task drafts from rough ideas into a structured backlog?▼

To capture task records from rough ideas, this skill parses messy inputs into structured fields, separating user-provided details from inferred defaults like kebab-case keys, module, size, and priority for backlog management.

What is the best way to add a bug or feature to my backlog without missing details?▼

Adding a bug or feature to your backlog is handled by accepting a rough specification, inferring missing fields with user-correctable separation, and checking against existing tasks to prevent duplicates before proposing the draft.

Does duplicate detection work automatically when logging new tasks?▼

Duplicate detection works automatically when logging new tasks by checking existing records to identify exact duplicates, flag partial overlaps for merging, or link distinct related tasks within your tracking system.

Can I finalize a task draft to pending status with definition of ready guardrails?▼

You can finalize a task draft to pending status using an optional step that enriches definition of ready fields, links dependencies, and applies guardrails to ensure the task is fully prepared for execution.

What task types are supported when structuring records for workflow automation?▼

Supported task types for structuring records include fix, feat, tweak, refactor, perf, agent, build, docs, and test, allowing you to categorize diverse backlog items accurately during task capture.
