List backlog items:

ls -d .planning/phases/999* 2>/dev/null || echo "No backlog items found"

Read ROADMAP.md and extract all 999.x phase entries:

cat .planning/ROADMAP.md

Show each backlog item with its description, any accumulated context (CONTEXT.md, RESEARCH.md), and creation date.

Present the list to the user via AskUserQuestion:

• For each backlog item, show: phase number, description, accumulated artifacts
• Options per item: Promote (move to active), Keep (leave in backlog), Remove (delete)

For items to PROMOTE:

• Find the next sequential phase number in the active milestone
• Rename the directory from 999.x-slug to {new_num}-slug:

  NEW_NUM=$(node ".agent/bin/mindforge-tools.cjs" phase add "${DESCRIPTION}" --raw)
  

• Move accumulated artifacts to the new phase directory
• Update ROADMAP.md: move the entry from ## Backlog section to the active phase list
• Remove (BACKLOG) marker
• Add appropriate **Depends on:** field

For items to REMOVE:

• Delete the phase directory
