Mode routing:

  • default (no flag): Capture as a structured todo for later work → add-todo workflow
  • --note: Zero-friction idea capture (append/list/promote) → note workflow
  • --backlog: Add an idea to the backlog parking lot (999.x numbering) → add-backlog workflow
  • --seed: Capture a forward-looking idea with trigger conditions → plant-seed workflow
  • --list: List pending todos and select one to work on → check-todos workflow
  • --list-seeds: List/audit captured seeds (optional status filter) → list-seeds workflow
