# Backlog

## Role

Storage for new issues. Issues here need qualification before work can begin.

## Actions

1. Read the issue (title, description, attachments)
2. Verify the issue is complete enough to be processed
3. If incomplete or poorly written: add a comment requesting clarifications
4. Advance: `autocode next <issue-key>`

> Or leave in backlog if issue is not ready

## Validation Criteria

- [ ] Issue read and understood
- [ ] If ready: moved to qualification

## Notes

Backlog is passive storage. Active qualification happens in the next step.
