milestone sequence or remove stale entries.

</objective>

<process>

1. List backlog items:

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

1. 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.

1. 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)

1. 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=$(gsd-sdk query phase.add "${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

1. For items to REMOVE:

• Delete the phase directory
• Remove the entry from ROADMAP.md ## Backlog section

1. Commit changes:

   gsd-sdk query commit "docs: review backlog — promoted N, removed M" .planning/ROADMAP.md

1. Report summary:

   ## 📋 Backlog Review Complete

   Promoted: {list of promoted items with new phase numbers}
   Kept: {list of items remaining in backlog}
   Removed: {list of deleted items}
