Captured retroactively. This project shipped before the roadmap surface existed. The credit value is a post-hoc estimate per the methodology in Entry 017 and is subject to revision under G-038's calibration mechanism.
What shipped
- Backlog items live at
src/content/journal/backlog/as B-NNN markdown files with their own frontmatter shape (id, slug, title, status, summary). - Journal loader extended with
getAllBacklog/getBacklogBySlug/buildBacklogSlugMapto feed the cross-link plugin. src/app/journal/backlog/[slug]/page.tsxroute renders backlog items using a slimmed variant of the Journal renderer stack.- Backlog cross-references (
B-NNN) resolve through the same remark plugin that handlesEntry NNN.
Why this is its own project
Backlog items are structurally lighter than full Journal entries —
they're "things we'll eventually decide" rather than decisions
themselves. Keeping the surface as a sub-route under /journal/
rather than a top-level corpus reflects that, and the credit value
reflects the smaller scope.
