A simple Claude-friendly system for tasks and ideas across projects
Ideas, tasks, and questions can easily get lost when several are active at the same time. The system uses three parts: Inbox, Backlog, and . The Inbox is a quick capture place for anything that comes to mind, without deciding where it belongs yet.
Notion is used for the Inbox because it is easy to open on a phone and add something quickly. The Backlog is the real task list, organized by priority. Items move into the Backlog after the Inbox is reviewed.
The Backlog stays in a file because it does not need to be viewed often, and Claude can read what is there. When a table view is needed, Claude can show the Backlog as a table. The is a running record of work that has happened.
