Does it create new skills automatically?

No, it follows a strict guardrail to only propose new skills in PATTERNS.md rather than creating them autonomously, ensuring human oversight.

Is this skill specific to quantitative research?

While developed for the quant-lab repository, its logic for backlog curation and task organization is applicable to any software development project.

How does it decide what to prioritize?

It analyzes the action log and mapping gaps to categorize tasks into Now, Next, or Later based on the scope and rationale provided during discovery.

Can I link tasks to specific code evidence?

Yes, the skill is designed to link backlog items to relevant files, logs, and Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) for better traceability.

What file does this skill update?

This skill primarily maintains and updates the .agent-docs/memory/BACKLOG.md file in your repository to keep project tasks centralized.

生产力与工作流

Maintains a structured, high-value task backlog by converting workflow discoveries and technical gaps into actionable items.

关于

The Backlog Curator skill enables Claude to autonomously manage and refine project tasks within the local development environment. By analyzing action logs and identifying mapping gaps, it transforms fleeting technical discoveries into well-defined backlog items complete with scope, rationale, and priority levels. This ensures that critical improvements and future features are captured and organized within a 'Now/Next/Later' roadmap, keeping project momentum high without losing track of long-term goals.
