  • Memory Maintenance: Detects unknown people, projects, and terms in your tasks and prompts you to fill the gaps in memory files.
  • Activity Scan: In comprehensive mode, searches chat, email, docs, and calendar for untracked todos and likely new memories.
  • Use Case: Use it when your backlog has drifted from reality and you want a guided review of what to add, complete, reschedule, or document.

FAQPage Schema
How do I sync my task list with GitHub issues and project trackers?

To sync tasks, the Skill compares your TASKS.md file against project trackers and GitHub issues to identify new assignments, completed work, and stale items requiring rescheduling. It provides a guided review of any backlog drift.

What is task and memory synchronization for backlog triage?

Task and memory synchronization aligns your tracked work with real activity by scanning external sources for untracked todos and detecting missing context about people, projects, and acronyms in your memory files.

Can I scan my chat, email, and calendar for untracked todos?

Yes, in comprehensive mode the activity scan searches chat, email, documents, and calendar to surface untracked todos and identify likely new memories, ensuring your task list reflects all current work activity.

Does task syncing require MCP access to external project trackers?

Task syncing requires reading TASKS.md and memory files, plus optional connector or MCP access to project trackers, GitHub, chat, email, calendar, and documents to fully synchronize assignments and recover context.

Best way to recover missing context for people and acronyms in my tasks?

The best way to recover context is running a memory maintenance scan, which detects unknown people, projects, and terms in your tasks and prompts you to fill the gaps directly in your memory files.

When should I not use automated task and memory syncing?

You should avoid automated task syncing when your TASKS.md is not maintained as the primary source of truth, or if you lack the necessary connector access to external trackers, chat, and calendar for activity comparison.
