One order, top to bottom
A backlog sorted by priority field is not ordered — it is four buckets. Drag the backlog into a single sequence. The question "what is next?" then has exactly one answer, which is the entire point.
Ready means ready
- The outcome is written down, not implied
- It has an estimate
- Nothing blocks it
- One person could pick it up without asking a question first
Archive rather than delete
Anything below the line you would realistically reach in two quarters should be archived. Archived tasks stay searchable and can be restored whole — deleting loses the discussion that produced the idea.
