What is the best way to triage accumulated artifacts in backlog phase directories?▼

The best way to triage accumulated artifacts is through an interactive review of 999.x backlog phases, allowing you to systematically decide item-by-item whether to promote entries into active milestones or remove them entirely.

Do I need gsd-sdk to commit roadmap changes from backlog review?▼
