setup

Install Backlog.md in the current repository without clobbering existing agent directives.

When This Skill Runs

Trigger phrases:

  • "set up backlog.md", "install backlog.md", "adopt Backlog.md"
  • "set up task management for this repo"
  • "register the backlog MCP server"
  • "introduce a backlog/ directory"

Prerequisites

  • The user's working directory is a git repository (git rev-parse --show-toplevel succeeds).
  • mise (https://mise.jdx.dev) is the chosen tool manager. If the project uses a different one (asdf, plain npm), adapt the install step accordingly.
  • An MCP-aware client (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex) is the consumer.
