FAQPage Schema
How do I prioritize and clean up backlog items across multiple projects?

Backlog prioritization loads items, projects, and active plans to surface stale work and propose consolidation and reprioritization across multiple projects. It groups items by priority and updates statuses only after user confirmation.

What is the best way to surface stale work in a product backlog?

Surfacing stale work in a product backlog involves loading open items and active plans to identify outdated tasks. The system proposes actionable changes like reprioritization and consolidation to keep projects progressing.

Can I automatically update statuses and consolidate backlog items?

You cannot automatically update statuses and consolidate backlog items without confirmation. The system proposes changes with guardrails, applying deterministic updates only after you confirm to prevent accidental closures or mis-prioritizations.

How do I reprioritize backlog items by priority levels?

Reprioritizing backlog items by priority levels involves loading and summarizing tasks across P0 through P6. The system proposes actionable reprioritizations with safety checks, applying confirmed changes while preventing mis-prioritizations.

Does backlog triage prevent accidental closure of active work items?

Backlog triage prevents accidental closure of active work items by implementing deterministic changes only after user confirmation. It applies safety checks and guardrails to proposed status updates and consolidations.

What happens when I run a backlog triage review?

Running a backlog triage review loads open items, projects, and active plans to summarize tasks by priority. It surfaces stale work and proposes actionable changes including reprioritization, status updates, and consolidation for your confirmation.
