What problem does it solve?

Provides a fast, low-friction way to capture ideas and work items to a repository-local backlog without committing them to execution, and to explicitly promote chosen items into the active task loop when ready.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Fast capture: Create backlog entries with minimal input (title, priority, tags, context) and store them as structured markdown in .volon/backlog/.
  • List & inspect: Enumerate backlog items by status and surface id, title, priority for triage.
  • Controlled promotion: Promote a captured backlog item into an active task via the /task-create protocol, preserving traceability between backlog and task.
  • Use case: Quickly jot down an idea during a design review, then later promote that entry into a tracked task with priority and context for the next sprint.

Quick Start

Use the backlog-task skill to capture "Add caching to API" with priority A and tags cache,performance and later run promote BACKLOG-YYYYMMDD-001 to convert it into a task.
