Review Agiflow Planning tasks for readiness, prioritize approved work, group related tasks into work units, and promote ready tasks to Todo. Use when grooming a backlog, organizing planned tasks, creating work units, or deciding what should be executed next.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Agiflow Backlog Grooming
Treat grooming as the quality gate between Planning and Todo.
## Workflow
1. Resolve the target project and call `list_project_statuses` to discover its exact status names.
2. Call `list_tasks` for Planning tasks, `list_work_units` for existing active work units, and `list_members` for assignment context.
3. Call `get_task` for tasks whose readiness, dependencies, or acceptance criteria are unclear.
4. Classify every Planning task as:
- Ready
- Needs refinement
- Blocked by a dependency
- Duplicate or obsolete
5. Require a clear outcome, sufficient context, and at least two testable acceptance criteria before promotion.
6. Propose a priority order and explain the tradeoffs.
7. Group three to eight cohesive tasks into a work unit only when they deliver one shared capability. Leave one or two related tasks standalone and split groups larger than eight.
8. Review existing work units for shared dependencies and sequencing conflicts.
9. Present the proposed promotions, work units, assignments, and dependency order. Request approval before writing.
10. After approval:
- Use `batch_create_work_units` for approved groups.

How to install
mdr add hashgraph-online/awesome-codex-plugins/backlog-grooming@sha256:911830f4ec486154The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260710.f9e2b31, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
