gsd:add-backlog

Capture ideas that are not ready for active planning in a separate roadmap backlog. Each idea gets a 999.x number and its own folder, providing a place to collect context before moving it into an active milestone.

Add an idea to the backlog parking lot (999.x numbering)

  • Capture an idea for future consideration
  • Keep unplanned ideas outside the active phase sequence
  • Prepare a saved idea for later discussion

Review the instructions the agent will receive before you install.

<objective> Add a backlog item to the roadmap using 999.x numbering. Backlog items are unsequenced ideas that aren't ready for active planning — they live outside the normal phase sequence and accumulate context over time. </objective> <process>
  1. Read ROADMAP.md to find existing backlog entries:

    cat .planning/ROADMAP.md
    
  2. Find next backlog number:

    NEXT=$(gsd-sdk query phase.next-decimal 999 --raw)
    

    If no 999.x phases exist, start at 999.1.

  3. Add to ROADMAP.md under a ## Backlog section. If the section doesn't exist, create it at the end. Write the ROADMAP entry BEFORE creating the directory — this ensures directory existence is always a reliable indicator that the phase is already registered, which prevents false duplicate detection in any hook that checks for existing 999.x directories (#2280):

    ## Backlog
    
    ### Phase {NEXT}: {description} (BACKLOG)
    
    **Goal:** [Captured for future planning]
    **Requirements:** TBD
    **Plans:** 0 plans
    
    Plans:
    - [ ] TBD (promote with /gsd:review-backlog when ready)
    
  4. Create the phase directory:

    SLUG=$(gsd-sdk query generate-slug "$ARGUMENTS" --raw)
    mkdir -p ".planning/phases/${NEXT}-${SLUG}"
    touch ".planning/phases/${NEXT}-${SLUG}/.gitkeep"
    
  5. Commit:

    gsd-sdk query commit "docs: add backlog item ${NEXT} — ${ARGUMENTS}" .planning/ROADMAP.md ".planning/phases/${NEXT}-${SLUG}/.gitkeep"
    
  6. Report:

    ## 📋 Backlog Item Added
    
    Phase {NEXT}: {description}
    Directory: .planning/phases/{NEXT}-{slug}/
    
    This item lives in the backlog parking lot.
    Use /gsd:discuss-phase {NEXT} to explore it further.
    Use /gsd:review-backlog to promote items to active milestone.
    
</process> <notes> - 999.x numbering keeps backlog items out of the active phase sequence - Phase directories are created immediately, so /gsd:discuss-phase and /gsd:plan-phase work on them - No `Depends on:` field — backlog items are unsequenced by definition - Sparse numbering is fine (999.1, 999.3) — always uses next-decimal </notes>
