#24: Agile
Status: Backlog
Raw, unrefined input. Customer feedback, support themes, sales requests, internal ideas. Nothing here is committed to.
This is deliberately separate from the Product Backlog. Mixing raw feedback with refined stories is how backlogs become unreadable. One user saying "I wish this were faster" is not a story. It becomes one only after refinement gives it a user, a goal, a reason, and acceptance criteria.
The flow:
- Capture it here, verbatim, with the source
- Discuss it at Backlog Refinement
- If it survives, write it as a story in 📋 Product Backlog and link back to this item
- If it does not survive, mark it Won't Do and say why — a silent no teaches nobody
Keep the original wording. Paraphrased feedback loses the signal.
