FAQPage Schema
How do I manage project tasks and acceptance criteria directly from the CLI?

You can manage project tasks and acceptance criteria from the CLI using Backlog.md commands to create, update, and check off items by index. This centralizes task state, documentation, and decisions without leaving the terminal.

What is the best way to visualize a Kanban board for terminal-based task management?

The best way to visualize a terminal-based Kanban board is using the backlog board command. It renders your current task states directly in the CLI, and you can use backlog browser for a web UI alternative.

Does Backlog.md CLI integrate task tracking with Git branches?

Yes, Backlog.md CLI integrates with Git to automatically track task states across branches. This ensures your task metadata stays synchronized with your current branch context during multi-step workflows.

Can I use markdown for architectural decision records and project documentation?

Yes, you can use markdown for architectural decision records and project documentation. The CLI enforces structured docs and decisions alongside task tracking to maintain consistent project metadata.

Do I need external dependencies to run Backlog.md for project management?

No, you do not need external dependencies to run Backlog.md for project management. It requires only the Backlog.md tooling to function and enforces CLI-based interactions for all task operations.

How do I generate clean text output for AI processing from a project backlog?

You generate clean text output for AI processing by appending the --plain flag to your backlog commands. This strips formatting and provides raw text, making it easy for AI models to parse task data.
