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 2 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 1 host that is neither well-known infrastructure nor declared in the skill's frontmatter: developers.linear.app.

    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.

About this skill

What it does

The backlog-manager skill allows AI agents to organize and prioritize tasks within a backlog. It can create new backlog items, assign priorities (e.g., High, Medium, Low), and estimate effort for each task. The agent can also reorder the backlog based on these factors, ensuring focus on the most important work.

When to use it

  • Sprint Planning: Prioritize user stories and tasks for an upcoming sprint.
  • Issue Triage: Quickly create and categorize new bug reports or feature requests as they come in.
  • Project Kickoff: Establish a clear backlog of activities with initial priorities and effort estimates.
  • Refinement Sessions: Regularly review and adjust the backlog to reflect changing priorities and scope.

Key capabilities

  • Create new backlog items
  • Assign priority levels (High, Medium, Low)
  • Estimate task effort
  • Reorder backlog based on priority and effort

Example prompts

  • "Add a 'Implement user authentication' item to the backlog with High priority and an estimated effort of 8 hours."
  • "Show me all backlog items marked as 'High' priority."
  • "Reorder the backlog, prioritizing items with the highest priority first."

Tips & gotchas

The skill requires a clear understanding of prioritization frameworks (e.g., MoSCoW) to effectively manage the backlog. Ensure consistent effort estimation across tasks for accurate reordering and planning.
