That’s the workflow feature I badly want: for it to create a side list of things like that. Currently it either accumulates slop or goes on side quests far too easily.

This might be as easy as a directive to populate a .md file.

Give it access to an issue tracker with cli (github works fine) and put in CLAUDE.md to use that for "should fix later" issues.

Bonus is that you can make it look at the list and pick things up without a lot of instructions.
