v1.0.1

Bug Fixes

• Task search: bare integers (42) and TASK-N references now do a direct seq lookup instead of going through FTS5
• CLI output: task add now correctly populates the Project field in table output (was showing empty)
• Board view: fixed cap at 50 tasks — board now fetches all tasks regardless of total count
• Sort direction: order=asc/desc is now respected in both list and board views
• Activity feed: task detail activity now shows the correct actor instead of undefined:undefined
• Attachment delete: clicking Delete in task detail now shows a confirmation dialog before deleting
• Attachment download: Download button in task detail no longer returns 404
• Attachment activity: task detail activity feed now correctly filters to the current task

New Features

• project add alias-only: backlog project add --alias myproject works without a positional name argument; name defaults to the alias
• Attachments API: GET /api/attachments?task_id=<id> returns attachments for a specific task
• Attachment preview: clicking a filename in the task detail Attachments section opens a preview modal for images; other file types open in a new tab
• Skills: added backlog-memory, backlog-memory-learn, and backlog-memory-store skills for agentic memory workflows

v1.0.0

A local-first task queue your AI coding agents can read and write directly.
Single binary, no server, no SaaS.

Workspace

• backlog init creates backlog.db (SQLite, WAL mode) and config.toml.
• Profiles registered in ~/.config/backlog/config.toml; switch with --profile.
• DB resolution chain: --db → $BACKLOG_DB → --profile → default profile.
• backlog doctor check runs PRAGMA integrity_check; doctor backup does an atomic VACUUM INTO.

Tasks, plans, comments

• backlog task add/list/show/update/move/archive/delete with human-readable TASK-N refs, full ULIDs, or bare integers.
• Types task/bug/issue/improvement/feature/vulnerability/chore/spike/bucket-list; statuses todo/doing/done; priorities P1–P5.
• FTS5 full-text search across title and description with prefix (sql*) and boolean (jwt OR csrf) support.
• Plans are versioned markdown: every edit creates a new immutable version, full history queryable via plan history.
• Comments are append-only and actor-attributed.

Project knowledge

• backlog memory add/list/append — tagged free-form notes for cross-session agent scratchpads.
• backlog doc add/list/show/update/history — versioned project documentation.
• backlog attachment add/list/fetch/delete — binary files stored inside the SQLite DB.
• backlog label create/list/attach/detach — per-project tags with optional hex color.

Actor attribution

• Every write takes --as kind:name (e.g. ai:claude-code, human:alice).
• Actor stored as a (kind, name) pair at the DB level with a CHECK constraint, exposed on every row in the activity log.
• Defaults to human:$USER when --as is omitted.

Import / export

• backlog import-findings <file.json> bulk-creates tasks from structured findings (security scanners, AI triage agents); supports inline plans per item; --dry-run available.
• backlog import <other.db> copies tasks, plans, comments, and labels from another workspace.
• backlog export --format json|csv|md with optional --project and --out flags.

Surfaces

• CLI — every command supports --json for machine-readable output.
• HTTP API — backlog web starts an embedded server with a Notion-style SPA (tasks, board, grid, plans, docs, memory, attachments, activity).
• MCP server — backlog mcp serve exposes the operations as JSON-RPC 2.0 tools over stdio. Compatible with Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and OpenCode.
• Skills — four agentic-loop skills (backlog, backlog-enhance-tasks, backlog-loop, backlog-goal) embedded in the binary. backlog install-skills writes them into ~/.claude, ~/.cursor, ~/.config/opencode, and ~/.codex in each tool's native format.

Developer experience

• backlog completion bash|zsh|fish|powershell — shell completion scripts.
• backlog activity — append-only audit trail of every state transition.
• backlog schema — JSON Schema for task, findings_file, manifest, and actor payloads.
• backlog version — version injected via ldflags at build time.
