FAQPage Schema

How do I capture conversation context and ideas without starting the planning phase?▼

You can capture conversation context and ideas by saving them into a project's `.lo/park/` directory as rich narrative summaries. This preserves the detailed thought process and creates backlog entries without committing to immediate planning or execution.

How do I quickly create a backlog entry for a new feature idea?▼

You can quickly create a backlog entry by using a rapid capture method that requires only a feature name. The skill automatically generates and persists the entry in the project's `BACKLOG.md` file for later reference.

Do I need a specific directory structure to save ideas and context to my backlog?▼

Yes, saving ideas and context requires an existing `.lo/` directory and a `BACKLOG.md` file within your project. These are necessary for the skill to allocate IDs and persist your captured entries.

What is the best way to save a near-verbatim summary of a discussion for later reference?▼

The best way to save a near-verbatim discussion summary is to capture it as a rich narrative entry within the `.lo/park/` directory. This stores the full conversation thread alongside a placeholder in your backlog.

Can I capture feature ideas and tasks directly into BACKLOG.md from an ongoing discussion?▼

Yes, you can capture feature ideas and tasks directly into `BACKLOG.md` from an ongoing discussion. The skill supports both detailed conversation context captures and quick backlog entry creation for features.
