How does this skill handle Architectural Decision Records (ADRs)?

It provides specific 'backlog decision' commands to create, list, and view ADRs using a standardized template that includes context, the decision itself, and consequences.

Is there a way to visualize the project status?

Yes, you can use the 'backlog board' command to view a Kanban-style visualization directly in your terminal, or 'backlog browser' for a web UI if supported.

How do I manage task requirements and acceptance criteria?

You can add multiple criteria during task creation or use the edit command with flags like --ac to add, --check-ac to complete, or --remove-ac to delete criteria by their index.

Can I edit the Markdown files in the backlog folder directly?

No. A key principle of this skill is to never edit task files directly. You should always use the provided CLI commands to ensure proper formatting and indexing.

Acerca de

The Backlog.md skill empowers Claude to act as an integrated project manager within your development environment, utilizing the Backlog.md CLI to track tasks, technical specifications, and Architectural Decision Records (ADRs). It enforces a structured workflow where project data is stored in version-controlled Markdown files but managed exclusively through CLI commands to ensure data integrity. This skill is ideal for developers who want to maintain a project backlog, implementation plans, and design decisions directly alongside their code without leaving the terminal.
