 ## Remaining Manual-Review Backlog
 
-Only the #1687 localization tail remains plausibly useful but unsafe to
-auto-port.
+The remaining plausibly useful backlog is translation/localization work that is
+unsafe to auto-port without language-owner review:
+
+- #1687 zh-CN localization tail
+- #1609 Persian README translation
+- #1563 zh-TW README sync
+- #1564 Turkish README sync
+- #1565 pt-BR README sync
 
 Handling rule:
 
-1. Keep #1687 in translator/manual review.
+1. Keep these PRs in translator/manual review.
 2. Split any future work by surface: agents, commands, top-level docs, release
    and count surfaces, then skills.
 3. Do not import stale top-level docs that carry old version or catalog-count
