Backlog

The Backlog shows the whole work breakdown as a nested tree: epics contain features, features contain user stories, stories contain tasks.

Reading a card

Each card shows its type, title, a short description (collapsed by default), the assignee, the status, a comment count and its tags. The coloured bar on the right edge reflects the status. Use the chevron to expand a long description.

Card actions

Button	Does
Pencil	Edit item (needs Edit Units)
Sparkle	AI Add under this item (needs Add with AI and OpenAI configured)
Plus	Add child of the next level down

Filtering

• Type filter: show only epics, features, stories or tasks.
• Tag filter: type in the tag bar to narrow the tree to items with those tags.

When you select lower levels without their parents, Agilerr keeps the missing parents visible as faded structural nodes, so every item still has its context.

The header shows how many items match, for example “17 items”.

Adding work

Press + at the top (or Ctrl+A) to add an item in the current context, or use a card’s own + to add a child. See Add and edit items.
