The four heights
The same task, four distances: today's deadline, the next reviewer, the stuck moment, the pattern.

Execute — do the immediate task
+I need the cards in the Backlog list ordered so the team works highest-priority items first. Move the card titled Mobile checkout bug to the top, followed by Internationalization notes, then Performance spikes, and leave the rest in their current order. Check that blocked cards stay below work-in-progress items.

Improve — make it easier to accept
+Before I hand this list to the sprint planner, make the priority visible at a glance. Show the three highest-priority cards at the top, surface any cards without an assignee, and flag cards older than 14 days. Call out anything missing acceptance criteria that would make a reviewer pause.

Decide — diagnose the stuck moment
+I just merged two duplicate cards and now the order is confusing
I merged Duplicate: signup flow and Signup form duplicate into one card and the Backlog list now looks shuffled. The product lead expects the Mobile checkout bug at the top but I’m not sure which card should now be first. I’m worried I’ll reorder the wrong one and upset the sprint planning. Recommend the safest next move to restore correct priority and who to confirm with.

Become — change the pattern
+We keep reordering the same backlog cards every sprint
Every sprint I spend 20–40 minutes reordering the same five backlog cards because stakeholders change priorities mid-planning. This eats into planning time and makes our board look unstable. What habit or rule should I introduce so priorities stick into sprint planning and I stop renegotiating during the meeting?

Every task here came from the work, not from a feature list — which is why the prompts name what you want done and never the button that does it. The tool changes; the work does not.
