Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill failed 1 of 6 checks. A failure is not proof of bad intent; it means something in the code needs a human to look at it before you run it.

  • No undeclared network calls: failed

    Contacts 3 hosts that are neither well-known infrastructure nor declared in the skill's frontmatter: cli.github.com, developer.atlassian.com, gitea.com.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

About this skill

What it does

The Backlog skill helps you organize and prioritize tasks. It can create, categorize, and sort items within a defined backlog structure, allowing for efficient management of work. The skill facilitates the creation of new backlog entries with associated details like due dates and priorities.

When to use it

  • Project Planning: Use it to build out a list of features or tasks needed for a software project.
  • Content Creation: Organize blog post ideas, video scripts, or other content projects into a manageable backlog.
  • Personal Task Management: Create and prioritize personal goals or errands.
  • Meeting Follow-up: Quickly capture action items from meetings and add them to your backlog for later completion.

Key capabilities

  • Create new backlog entries
  • Categorize backlog items
  • Sort backlog items by priority
  • Set due dates for backlog items

Example prompts

  • "Add 'Design landing page' to my marketing backlog, high priority, due next Friday."
  • "Show me all the tasks in my development backlog sorted by due date."
  • "Create a new backlog called 'Website Redesign'."

Tips & gotchas

The skill requires you to define the structure of your backlogs (e.g., naming them). Ensure you provide clear and specific instructions for creating and managing entries within those structures.
