docs: add strict static analysis and typing track to backlog

TASKS.md

@@ -100,4 +100,8 @@ To ensure smooth execution, execute the tracks in the following order:
 **Context:** In `conductor_tech_lead.py`, the `generate_tickets` function relies on a generic `try...except` block to parse the LLM's JSON ticket array. If the model hallucinates or outputs invalid JSON, it silently returns an empty array `[]`, causing the GUI to fail the track creation process without giving the model a chance to self-correct.
 **Goal:** Implement a programmatic retry loop that catches `JSONDecodeError` and feeds the error back to the Tier 2 model for self-correction before failing the UI operation.
 
+### `strict_static_analysis_and_typing`
+**Context:** Running `uv run ruff check .` and `uv run mypy --explicit-package-bases .` revealed massive technical debt in type safety (512+ Mypy errors across 64 files, 200+ remaining Ruff violations). The `gui_2.py` and `api_hook_client.py` files specifically have severe "Any" bleeding and incorrect unions.
+**Goal:** Resolve all static analysis errors. Enforce strict `mypy` compliance, remove implicit `Optional` types, and fix ambiguous variables (`l`). Integrate `ruff` and `mypy` into a CI pre-commit hook so Tier 3 workers are forced to write type-safe code going forward.
